You cannot currently do a dynamic call to a mixin based off a variable directly. You can make your function()
mixin into a "caller" or "getter" mixin in which you register the mixins that can be called by your function()
mixin, like so (which utilizes pattern matching):
LESS
.function(@get) {
.-(@get); //call for mixin
//register mixins you want to call with function
.-(mixin_1) { .mixin_1; }
.-(mixin_2) { .mixin_2; }
}
.mixin_1 {
height: 1px;
}
.mixin_2 {
height: 2px;
}
#block {
.function(mixin_1);
}
Outputs
.mixin_1 {
height: 1px;
}
.mixin_2 {
height: 2px;
}
#block {
height: 1px;
}
Of course, if you want the mixins invisible to the css, then change them to this:
LESS change (added parenthesis)
.mixin_1() {
height: 1px;
}
.mixin_2() {
height: 2px;
}
New Output
#block {
height: 1px;
}
Do you need it?
That level of abstraction can be useful at times, but often simply a pattern matching on the mixins will suffice. You would have to determine that. So with this simple example, it would be better to reduce to something like this:
.setHeight(1) {
height: 1px;
}
.setHeight(2) {
height: 2px;
}
#block {
.setHeight(1);
}
More complex examples of mixins may not be so easily reduced, and then a mixin like what you want may be useful.
