| ## Usage | |
| Add [Selector Specificity] to your project: | |
| ```bash | |
| npm install postcss @csstools/selector-specificity --save-dev | |
| ``` | |
| ```js | |
| import parser from 'postcss-selector-parser'; | |
| import { selectorSpecificity } from '@csstools/selector-specificity'; | |
| const selectorAST = parser().astSync('#foo:has(> .foo)'); | |
| const specificity = selectorSpecificity(selectorAST); | |
| console.log(specificity.a); // 1 | |
| console.log(specificity.b); // 1 | |
| console.log(specificity.c); // 0 | |
| ``` | |
| _`selectorSpecificity` takes a single selector, not a list of selectors (not : `a, b, c`). | |
| To compare or otherwise manipulate lists of selectors you need to call `selectorSpecificity` on each part._ | |
| ### Comparing | |
| The package exports a utility function to compare two specificities. | |
| ```js | |
| import { selectorSpecificity, compare } from '@csstools/selector-specificity'; | |
| const s1 = selectorSpecificity(ast1); | |
| const s2 = selectorSpecificity(ast2); | |
| compare(s1, s2); // -1 | 0 | 1 | |
| ``` | |
| - if `s1 < s2` then `compare(s1, s2)` returns a negative number (`< 0`) | |
| - if `s1 > s2` then `compare(s1, s2)` returns a positive number (`> 0`) | |
| - if `s1 === s2` then `compare(s1, s2)` returns zero (`=== 0`) | |

| For CSSTools we always use `postcss-selector-parser` and want to calculate specificity from this AST. | |
