follow up on #64

adds more valid cases for nested css:

  • a test for .foo { span { a_value: some-value; } } which is pure
  • a test for .foo { span { a { a_value: some-value; } } } which is pure
  • a test for .foo, html { span { a_value: some-value; } } which is not pure

a case which I could not solve (and would probably be a separate pr) is the following one:

  • html { .foo { a_value: some-value; } } should be pure
  • html { a_value: some-value; .foo { a_value: some-value; } } must stay non-pure

Let's solve them here

html { .foo { a_value: some-value; } } should be pure
html { a_value: some-value; .foo { a_value: some-value; } } must stay non-pure

Otherwise it can be a problem for some developers

You are absolutely right - but maybe you got me wrong.

html { .foo { a_value: some-value; } } should be pure
html { a_value: some-value; .foo { a_value: some-value; } } must stay non-pure

That part is unchanged - same as on master.
So it will stay the very same problem for some developers as it already is today.

In this pr I only improved the mentioned cases because they are more common and easier to detect.

To fix the unchanged case above we must change the entire logic how we detect pure selectors.
I created the issue #73 so we can discuss how we can solve it.

For now please lets merge already this part as it is independent, it works and will already unblock these cases

I don't sure we have a valid logic here, because

.foo { span { a_value: some-value; } }

===

.foo span{a_value:some-value}

but the second is not pure

Why do you think your examples are valid?

Oh wow - it looks you are absolutely right - I need some time to analyse what's wrong here

@alexander-akait

Because they are valid according to postcss-modules-local-by-default see #74

hm, I tried to find any docs about what is pure and no luck, look like I need to look at the source code, anyway we should finish

html { .foo { a_value: some-value; } } should be pure

html { a_value: some-value; .foo { a_value: some-value; } } must stay non-pure

Before merge, otherwise logic will be completed and can create dangerous problems, developers can start to write wrong things and after fix them some project can be broken

I added a test for this case which shows that

html { a_value: some-value; .foo { a_value: some-value; } } stays non-pure

However

html { .foo { a_value: some-value; } } is not pure (same as on master)

So we don't allow something which will be broken in future
