Advanced options:

                                                                       [boolean]

  postcss input.css -o output.css                       Basic usage
  postcss src/**/*.css --base src --dir build           Glob Pattern & output
  cat input.css | postcss -u autoprefixer > output.css  Piping input & output

If no input files are passed, it reads from stdin. If neither -o, --dir, or
--replace is passed, it writes to stdout.

If there are multiple input files, the --dir or --replace option must be passed.

Input files may contain globs (e.g. src/**/*.css). If you pass an input
directory, it will process all files in the directory and any subdirectories,
respecting the glob pattern.

### [Config](https://github.com/michael-ciniawsky/postcss-load-config)

If you need to pass options to your plugins, or have a long plugin chain, you'll want to use a configuration file.

**postcss.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  parser: 'sugarss',
  plugins: [
    require('postcss-import')({ ...options }),
    require('postcss-url')({ url: 'copy', useHash: true }),
  ],
}
```

Note that you **can not** set the `from` or `to` options for postcss in the config file. They are set automatically based on the CLI arguments.

### Context

For more advanced usage, it's recommended to use a function in `postcss.config.js`; this gives you access to the CLI context to dynamically apply options and plugins **per file**

|   Name    |    Type    |              Default               | Description          |
| :-------: | :--------: | :--------------------------------: | :------------------- |
|   `env`   | `{String}` |          `'development'`           | process.env.NODE_ENV |
|  `file`   | `{Object}` |    `dirname, basename, extname`    | File                 |
| `options` | `{Object}` | `map, parser, syntax, stringifier` | PostCSS Options      |

**postcss.config.js**

```js
module.exports = (ctx) => ({
  map: ctx.options.map,
  parser: ctx.file.extname === '.sss' ? 'sugarss' : false,
  plugins: {
    'postcss-import': { root: ctx.file.dirname },
    cssnano: ctx.env === 'production' ? {} : false,
  },
})
```

> ⚠️ If you want to set options via CLI, it's mandatory to reference `ctx.options` in `postcss.config.js`

```bash
postcss input.sss -p sugarss -o output.css -m
```

**postcss.config.js**

```js
module.exports = (ctx) => ({
  map: ctx.options.map,
  parser: ctx.options.parser,
  plugins: {
    'postcss-import': { root: ctx.file.dirname },
    cssnano: ctx.env === 'production' ? {} : false,
  },
})
```
