Source map option not working about less-plugin-clean-css HOT 3 CLOSED

The plugin has no such option. To get the sourcemap you need to use this option for the lessc itself (plugin will inherit it automatically). There's no --output option too, as well as any other input/output/file options since the plugin works inside the compiler and all files are read/written by lessc. Run lessc --clean-css to see exact list of available options.

Thanks, got it working now - the confusion came from the deprecation warning I got after upgrading lessc The compress option has been deprecated. We recommend you use a dedicated css minifier, for instance see less-plugin-clean-css. and the following paragraph in the plugin's readme.md:

See clean-css for the available command options - the only differences are advanced and rebase which we default to false, because it is not always entirely safe.

So I went and checked out clean-css and their examples (which are all for the CLI) made it look like this plugin was acting as a wrapper to the clean-css cli command as clean-css itself has a --source-map and --output option :-)

Thanks for the quick response - all good now!
