node-sass is deprecated

[borisovg]

As per node-sass README (https://github.com/sass/node-sass), the package is deprecated, with the recommendation to switch to Dart Sass package ( https://www.npmjs.com/package/sass).

Thanks for the heads up @borisovg! We'll have to switch over soon!

Hi @stevenschobert - do you have a timeframe on upgrading or accepting !PR64 ? With newer versions, metalsmith-sass does not work anymore due to the outdated gyp dependency of the "old" sass. Thank you!

Hey @cproof — thanks for the reminder, and I apologize for the delay!

I just wrapped up a project that has been consuming all my free time, so I should have more time for open source going forward, and will get it merged in!

Hi @stevenschobert ,
thank you for the update and for providing/maintaining this package at all :-)

Hey @cproof! I just pushed out v2.0 that changes node-sass to be a peer dependency, so you should be able to pin it at any recent version you like.

I did take a look at the replacement Dart-sass project, but I didn't have enough time to invest in fully switching metalsmith-sass over to it just yet. Hopefully being able to upgrade node-sass does help for the time being.

Thanks!

Thank you! This works perfectly 👍 (now using node-sass 6.0.1 in our build)
