declaration-block-semicolon-newline-after

Require a newline or disallow whitespace after the semicolons of declaration blocks.

a {  color: pink;  top: 0;    โ†‘}            โ†‘/**          โ†‘ * The newline after this semicolon */

This rule ignores:

  • semicolons that are preceded by Less mixins
  • the last semicolon of declaration blocks

Use the block-closing-brace-*-before rules to control the whitespace between the last semicolon and the closing brace instead.

This rule allows an end-of-line comment followed by a newline. For example,

a {  color: pink; /* end-of-line comment */  top: 0;}

The fix option can automatically fix all of the problems reported by this rule.

Options#

string: "always"|"always-multi-line"|"never-multi-line"

"always"#

There must always be a newline after the semicolon.

The following patterns are considered problems:

a { color: pink; top: 0; }
a {  color: pink; /* end-of-line comment    containing a newline */  top: 0;}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

a {  color: pink;  top: 0;}
a {  color: pink; /* end-of-line comment */  top: 0;}

"always-multi-line"#

There must always be a newline after the semicolon in multi-line rules.

The following patterns are considered problems:

a {  color: pink; top: 0;}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

a { color: pink; }
a { color: pink; top: 0; }
a {  color: pink;  top: 0;}

"never-multi-line"#

There must never be whitespace after the semicolon in multi-line rules.

The following patterns are considered problems:

a {  color: pink;  top: 0;}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

a { color: pink; }
a { color: pink; top: 0; }
a {  color: pink  ; top: 0;}
