You should use in project Vaadin of version 7.3

https://vaadin.com/wiki/-/wiki/Main/Valo+theme±+Getting+started


https://vaadin.com/book/vaadin7/-/page/themes.valo.html

Theme can be compiled only from command line, current eclipse plugin can’t compile theme based on Valo.

Hi Yusuf,

The source for the demo theme variants are here (all the folder which start with “tests-valo”):
https://github.com/vaadin/vaadin/tree/master/WebContent/VAADIN/themes

Alexey: the Eclipse plugin has been able to compile Valo already for a few months, so just update the plugin and you should be good to go.

It works great!!!

Hi Jouni,

I am on the latest Eclipse plugin but Eclipse still fails to compile the Valo theme for me. I have to resort to to the Ruby commpiler to make it work. Any ideas?

By the way, I am loving Valo. It transformed my dull looking app into something awesome and fun to just look at!

I was able to fix it by creating a new project and copying in my files. There must have been some non source-controlled setting that somehow got cached and was messing things up. In the new project the Eclipse plugin successfully compiles Valo.

Any update on this ?
I am using the latest vaadin plugin for eclipse. In my ivy file I have vaadin version 7.3.0 and my theme called “ct” has this content

@import “…/valo/valo”;
@mixin ct {
@include valo;
}

but it doesn’t work, when I do complile theme it stays forever with this message
“Compiling theme myct”

But when I import “…/runo/runo.scss” it compiles inmmediatelly

With the latest release of plugin in my Eclipse everything is compiling correct. Plugin was released with Vaadin 7.3

No dude. I am on lates plugin version (2.3.0.201409011338), and still have problems with projects that I updated from 7.2.3 to 7.3.0.
New projects complie the theme with no problems. Old proyects hungs in the “Compiling theme ct” …

Tell me what can I show you so you can see the problem.

Maybe you forgot to update the version of the vaadin-sass-compiler dependency in your old projects when updating the Vaadin version used. Use the latest version of it.
