Apache2::Filter::CSS::LESS is a mod_perl2 output filter which converts CSS LESS files into CSS on demand using CSS::LESSp.

Conversion of LESS files to CSS requires considerably more CPU resources than simply serving up static CSS files. Therefore, it is recommended that you use some sort of cache in order to minimize the processing required to convert LESS files. An example to cache everything under /less using mod_cache:

 # cache root directory
 CacheRoot /path/to/disk/cache
 # turn on cache for "/less/" location
 CacheEnable disk /less/

see the mod_cache documentation for more details.

The following PerlSetVar's are recognized:

LessContentType

Sets the output content type of the filtered CSS. The default content type is text/css.
