Syntax for if/else condition in SCSS mixin

Hi I'm trying to learn SASS/SCSS and am trying to refactor my own mixin for clearfix

what I'd like is for the mixin to be based on whether I pass the mixin a width.

thoughts so far (pseudo code only as I will be including other mixins)

@mixin clearfix($width) {

   @if !$width {

    // if width is not passed, or empty do this

   } @else {

        display: inline-block;
        width: $width;
   }
}

here's how I thought I might call it, but it's not working.

@include clearfix();

or

@include clearfix(100%)

or

@include clearfix(960px)

I'd appreciate any help on the best or right way to do this!

Solution

  • You could try this:

    $width:auto;
@mixin clearfix($width) {

   @if $width == 'auto' {

    // if width is not passed, or empty do this

   } @else {
        display: inline-block;
        width: $width;
   }
}

    I'm not sure of your intended result, but setting a default value should return false.
