# Perseus Tailwind Plugin This is a simple plugin for Perseus that runs the Tailwind CLI at build time. It will automatically download the newest version of the CLI initialize the project to look for class names in Rust files in `src` and HTML files in `static`. Further configuration can be done as usual in `tailwind.config.js`. # Usage Add the plugin to you Perseus App in your Perseus main function. ``` PerseusApp::new() .plugins(Plugins::new().plugin( perseus_tailwind::get_tailwind_plugin, perseus_tailwind::TailwindOptions { in_file: "src/tailwind.css".into(), // Don't put this in /static, it will trigger build loops. // Put this in /dist and use a static alias instead. out_file: "dist/tailwind.css".into(), }, )) .static_alias("/tailwind.css", "dist/tailwind.css") ``` If you're already using plugins just add the plugin to your `Plugins` as usual. # Versioning Major and minor versions will follow the Perseus version for simplicity. This means 0.4 of this plugin will work with Perseus 0.4.x, 0.5 would work with a future 0.5 version of Perseus, etc. # Using a custom binary If you for some reason want to use a specific version of the CLI or some other CLI with the same command line interface entirely, just place the binary with its default system-specific name (i.e. `tailwindcss-linux-arm64`) in the project directory. # Stability The plugin is fairly simple and shouldn't break anything since it just executes the Tailwind CLI. The download and installation should work on Linux, macOS and Windows on all architectures that are supported by Tailwind, but is currently only tested on Windows x64.
