Prefixr: HTTP error 404 contacting API

[ClaytonDaniels]

Simple as that... I run the portable version of Sublime from a GoogleDrive folder. Started having the issue a day or so ago. Have removed and readded to no avail. Will probably completely removing and readding Sublime Text if this isn't resolved soon.

Anybody know anything about this?

[lucidlips]

same here. This plugin has been in my arsenal for a while now, will be a huge shame if its no longer being supported.

If your looking for another solution check out autoprefixer. Actually works great in replacement of this plugin. https://github.com/ai/autoprefixer

I've tried autoprefixer, but it seems to run on whole stylesheet, rather than just the part I'm working on.

[lucidlips]

Autoprefixer does correct every style in the sheet youre working on as opposed to individual properties. But in the scheme of things wouldnt you want everything corrected?

Either way this plugin is going to be removed from package control as jeffery ways prefixr service is no longer operating. Will bond contacted me in relation to something else and he was going to do this.

Also note that Autoprefixer queries the caniuse database which is the most comprehensive/up to date browser property reference available. Also what choice do you have now that prefixr is gone?

@lucidlips is correct, looks like Prefixr is toast. Here is a pretty simple tutorial for Autoprefixer and getting it up and running... it does not run on the entire page, just your selection. You can even set up a keyboard shortcut... see the following:

http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/css-automatic-vendor-prefix/
https://github.com/sindresorhus/sublime-autoprefixer

I'd consider this closed, as it doesn't look like the developer of Prefixr is going to answer this or other questions!

[lucidlips]

also note that autoprefixer can isolate a selection and doesnt have to run on the entire file. It's working really good for me.

same error Prefixr: HTTP error 404 contacting API

[zayanit]

I have the same error
Prefixr: HTTP error 404 contacting API
I install autoprefixr put nothing change

[lucidlips]

Mohammed-Zayan did you even read the auto prefixer docs?
its a different plugin, different commands and a different shortcut. auto prefixer uses 'alt + super + p' to correct every attribute in the sheet or you can highlight a declaration block and it will run on that selection only.

[zayanit]

@lucidlips thank you.
I have install node-js and change keyboard shortcut in Key Bindings - User and it works.

I was actually usi ng Prefixr for 1-2 years. It was very useful, however when it was shut down, I gave a chance to AutoPrefix CSS. I must say it's much more better than Prefixr. I you run Prefixr on already prefixed CSS, it got everything messed up. But AutoPrefix CSS doesn't.
So give it try everything. it's great.

Thanks @lucidlips for mentioning in above messages 👍
