## Usage
Add [Selector Specificity] to your project:
```bash
npm install postcss @csstools/selector-specificity --save-dev
```
```js
import parser from 'postcss-selector-parser';
import { selectorSpecificity } from '@csstools/selector-specificity';
const selectorAST = parser().astSync('#foo:has(> .foo)');
const specificity = selectorSpecificity(selectorAST);
console.log(specificity.a); // 1
console.log(specificity.b); // 1
console.log(specificity.c); // 0
```
_`selectorSpecificity` takes a single selector, not a list of selectors (not : `a, b, c`).
To compare or otherwise manipulate lists of selectors you need to call `selectorSpecificity` on each part._
### Comparing
The package exports a utility function to compare two specificities.
```js
import { selectorSpecificity, compare } from '@csstools/selector-specificity';
const s1 = selectorSpecificity(ast1);
const s2 = selectorSpecificity(ast2);
compare(s1, s2); // -1 | 0 | 1
```
- if `s1 < s2` then `compare(s1, s2)` returns a negative number (`< 0`)
- if `s1 > s2` then `compare(s1, s2)` returns a positive number (`> 0`)
- if `s1 === s2` then `compare(s1, s2)` returns zero (`=== 0`)

For CSSTools we always use `postcss-selector-parser` and want to calculate specificity from this AST.
