Material schematics doesn't work with configured angular schematics (scss, spec, etc...)

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

BUG

What is the expected behavior?

When I've configured the CLI to use scss and skip tests for generated components, I would expect the material schematics to use already defined configuration when generating components (such as the dashboard).

What is the current behavior?

When I try to create material-dashboard it is created with .css instead of .scss and with .spec file

What are the steps to reproduce?

ng new <project-name> --style=scss --skip-tests
ng add @angular/[email protected] <-- I use 6.2.1 because https://github.com/angular/material2/issues/11836
ng generate @angular/material:material-dashboard --name dashboard

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

"@angular/animations": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/cdk": "^6.2.0",
"@angular/common": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/compiler": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/core": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/forms": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/http": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/material": "^6.2.1",
"@angular/platform-browser": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "^6.0.0",
"@angular/router": "^6.0.0",

"@angular/cli": "~6.0.1",

Is there anything else we should know?

I see that command "ng add @angular/material" add only theme file in angular.json

"styles": [
    {
        "input": "node_modules/@angular/material/prebuilt-themes/indigo-pink.css"
    },
    "src/styles.scss"
],

May be that command has to add schematic too?

"schematics": {
    "@schematics/material:material-dashboard": {
        "styleext": "scss",
        "spec": false
    },
    ....
}

pre-built themes are fully baked themes i.e.e they will be css not scss.
This is intentional. Are you expecting indigo-pink.scss ?

PS: I take it back. I think you are talking about the generated dashboard styles which are css not scss which is the issue.

[NorDroN]

I don't mind that pre-built themes are .css. It's normal. If I want use custom theme I can do it.
But I don't understand why when I try to create new material component (dashboard, nav, etc...) I get component with .css.

Seems that for now you must specify --styleext scss when generating the schematics components.

The schema.json for this setting just accepts any file extension it seems.

It should be reading from your cli configuration. Can you verify that?

Sounds like this is a similar issue as #12881 ?

Since 5144aa7, we already respect the stylext default option. I will be working on respecting the following supported default options:

• https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/blob/master/packages/schematics/angular/application/index.ts#L111-L120

What is the current state?
I'm also having the same problem. I only executed two commands:

ng new _my-project_
ng add @ angular / material

And I got this error. What is the official solution?

Hi there,

In Angular v8, I'm still facing this problem. To be noted : I have more than 1 application in my Angular project. I have my initial application in 'src' folder, and the others are in the 'project' folder.

When I do: ng generate @angular/material:nav nav-menu --project=mySecondApp, it generates everything, but uses the 'css' extension by default.

I tried to change the angular.json file, by adding, for the right project, the right schematics, like this:

"schematics" :  {
     "@schematics/material:nav": {
          "styleext": "scss"
     }
}

By default, in my angular.json I have, at the root level :

"schematics": {
     "@schematics/angular:component": {
          "styleext": "scss"
     }
}

So, it should take into account my default preferences for the whole project, right ?
