| This .scss loop will create "margin helpers" and "padding helpers" for use in your web projects. | |
| It will generate several classes such as: | |
| .m-r-10 which gives margin-right 10 pixels. | |
| .m-r-15 gives MARGIN to the RIGHT 15 pixels. | |
| .m-t-15 gives MARGIN to the TOP 15 pixels and so on. | |
| .p-b-5 gives PADDING to the BOTTOM of 5 pixels | |
| .p-l-40 gives PADDING to the LEFT of 40 pixels | |
| The first letter is "m" or "p" for MARGIN or PADDING | |
| Second letter is "t", "b", "l", or "r" for TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, or RIGHT | |
| Third letter is the number of spacing in pixels. Adjust the amounts generated by editing the $spaceamounts variable below. | |
| */ | |
| $spaceamounts: (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 75, 100); // Adjust this to include the pixel amounts you need. | |
| $sides: (top, bottom, left, right); // Leave this variable alone | |
| @each $space in $spaceamounts { | |

Beautiful stuff. Now an all margin and padding one...
$spaceamounts: (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30);
$sides: (top, bottom, left, right, all);
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
@each $side in $sides {
@if $side == 'all' {
.m#{$space} {
margin: #{$space}px;
}
.p#{$space} {
padding: #{$space}px;
}
} @else {
.m#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}#{$space} {
margin-#{$side}: #{$space}px;
}
.p#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}#{$space} {
padding-#{$side}: #{$space}px;
}
}
}
}
Exelente!
I keep getting this error and don't know why. Any hint?
ERROR in ./~/css-loader!./~/sass-loader/lib/loader.js!./~/postcss-loader!./src/index.scss
Module build failed: Unknown word (22:11)
20 |
21 | @if $side == '' {

23 | margin: #{$space}px;
24 | }
I'm using webpack 2.2.1 (from yeoman-fountain-js). Could it be an issue with the loader?
if you also use a 0 (zero) in spaceammounts you also have the possibility to have no margin or padding
Optional adjustment
$spaceamounts: (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 75, 100);
$sides: (
"": "all",
"t": "top",
"b": "bottom",
"l": "left",
"r": "right",
);
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
@each $prefix, $value in $sides {
$property: if($prefix == '', '', -#{$value});
.m#{$prefix}#{$space} {
margin#{$property}: #{$space}px;
}
.p#{$prefix}#{$space} {
padding#{$property}: #{$space}px;
}
}
}
Thanks!
Thanks <3
To include m-10 p-10
$spaceamounts: (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 75, 100); // Adjust this to include the pixel amounts you need.
$sides: (top, bottom, left, right); // Leave this variable alone
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
@each $side in $sides {
.m#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}-#{$space} {
margin-#{$side}: #{$space}px !important;
}
.p#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}-#{$space} {
padding-#{$side}: #{$space}px !important;
}
}
}
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
.m-#{$space} {
margin: #{$space}px !important;
}
.p-#{$space} {
padding: #{$space}px !important;
}
}
thanks
Thank you very much for that!
how includes a media queries inside the function?
You could include a media queries like this:
$sides: (
"": "",
"t": "top",
"b": "bottom",
"l": "left",
"r": "right",
);
$breakpoints: (
"": "",
"xs": 576px,
"sm": 768pxm,
"md": 992px,
"lg": 1200px,
);
@each $breakName, $breakValue in $breakpoints {
@each $sideName, $sideValue in $sides {
@for $i from 0 through 10 {
$property: if($sideName == '', '', -#{$sideValue});
$space: $i * 10;
$selector: '';
@if $breakName != "" {
$selector: #{$sideName}-#{$breakName}-#{$i};
} @else {
$selector: #{$sideName}-#{$i};
}
@if $breakName != "" {
@media (min-width: $breakValue) {
.m#{$selector} {
margin#{$property}: #{$space}px;
}
.p#{$selector} {
padding#{$property}: #{$space}px;
}
}
} @else {
.m#{$selector} {
margin#{$property}: #{$space}px;
}
.p#{$selector} {
padding#{$property}: #{$space}px;
}
}
}
}
}
Generates
.mt-4 {
margin-top: 40px; }
.pt-4 {
padding-top: 40px; }
@media (min-width: 576px) {
.mt-xs-4 {
margin-top: 40px; }
.pt-xs-4 {
padding-top: 40px; } }
etc...
Thanks <3

hi,
Can you please create another loop like: py-1, px-1, where compiled css will be like padding-right:10px; padding-left:10px; padding-top-:10px; padding-bottom:10px;
Cool) Thx)
spaceamounts
I want to loop for spaceamounts too. like 1,2,3,4, and so on instead of set fix value like (5,10,20,50)
its cools , i kind of like it!!!
good job!!!
Is there a way to do this using rems rather than pxs ?
@elliotrpmorris, I run it like this;
$spaceamounts: (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7); // Adjust this to include the pixel amounts you need.
$sides: (top, bottom, left, right); // Leave this variable alone
@include media-breakpoint-up(md) {
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
@each $side in $sides {
.m#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}-#{$space} {
margin-#{$side}: #{$space}rem !important;
}
.p#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}-#{$space} {
padding-#{$side}: #{$space}rem !important;
}
}
}
}
And I'm adding a breakpoint size modifier using a scale basis;
$scale-xs: 0.75;
$scale-sm: 0.8;
$scale-md: 0.85;
$scale-lg: 0.9;
$scale-xl: 0.95;
This is wonderful, thank you
$spaceamounts: (2, 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 75, 100);
$sides: (all, x, y, top, bottom, left, right);
@mixin make-space($prefix, $property) {
$property-prefix: #{str-slice($property, 0, 1)};
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
@each $side in $sides {
@if $side == 'all' {
.#{$prefix}-#{$property-prefix}-#{$space} {
#{$property}: #{$space}px !important;
}
} @else if $side == 'x' or $side == 'y' {
.#{$prefix}-#{$property-prefix}#{$side}-#{$space} {
@if $side == 'x' {
#{$property}-left: #{$space}px !important;
#{$property}-right: #{$space}px !important;
} @else {
#{$property}-top: #{$space}px !important;
#{$property}-bottom: #{$space}px !important;
}
}
} @else {
.#{$prefix}-#{$property-prefix}#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}-#{$space} {
#{$property}-#{$side}: #{$space}px !important;
}
}
}
}
}
@media (min-width: 1px) {
@include make-space(xs, margin);
@include make-space(xs, padding);
}
@media (min-width: 768px) {
@include make-space(md, margin);
@include make-space(md, padding);
}
.m-t-5 {
margin-top: 5px; }
.p-t-5 {
margin-top: 5px; }
.m-b-5 {
margin-bottom: 5px; }
.p-b-5 {
margin-bottom: 5px; }
It's just margin in all css classes. even in padding class too
Just want to throw my solution in. This will take care of x / y axis and all sides. However it does not include breakpoints.

Just dropping this for anyone who gets here:
- it handles all sides
$spacings: (1,2,3,4,5,auto);
$sides: (
't': 'top',
'b': 'bottom',
'l': 'left',
'r': 'right',
'a': ('top', 'left', 'bottom', 'right'),
'x': ('left', 'right'),
'y': ('top', 'bottom'),
);
@each $space in $spacings {
@each $prefix, $positions in $sides {
.p#{$prefix}-#{$space} {
@each $pos in $positions {
padding-#{$pos}: if($space == auto, $space, #{$space * 0.25}rem);
}
}
.m#{$prefix}-#{$space} {
@each $pos in $positions {
margin-#{$pos}: if($space == auto, $space, #{$space * 0.25}rem);
}
}
}
}
A little optimization :
$spaceamounts: (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);
$sides: (top, bottom, left, right);
@each $space in $spaceamounts {
@each $side in $sides {
$parallel: if($side == top or $side == bottom, y, x);
$unity: if($space == 0, '', em !important);

margin-#{$side}: #{$space}#{$unity};
}
.p#{str-slice($side, 0, 1)}-#{$space}, .p#{$parallel}-#{$space}, .p-#{$space} {
padding-#{$side}: #{$space}#{$unity};
}
}
}
$spacings: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, auto);
$sides: (
"t": "top",
