Script to convert a list of CSS custom properties to the JSON format required by Advanced Themer to make them appear on the Bricks Builder fields (via the “V” symbol).

# Script to convert a list of CSS custom properties to the JSON format required by Advanced Themer to make them appear on the Bricks Builder fields (via the “V” symbol).
# 1. Add a file in a folder with all CSS variables from Core Framework called core-framework-css-variables.css, one per line. Group each section using CSS comments.
# 2. Run the python script to generate the JSON file for Advanced Themer: python3 convert-css-variables-to-json.py
# 3. Add the file to the “Import Framework” option of the Advanced Themer on Bricks → AT - Theme settints → Global CSS Variables → Import Framework.
import re
import json

# Read the CSS file
with open('core-framework-css-variables.css', 'r') as f:
 css = f.readlines()

# Find all section titles and properties
sections = {}
current_section = ""
for line in css:
 if line.strip().startswith("/*") and line.strip().endswith("*/"):
  current_section = line.strip()[2:-2]
  sections[current_section] = []
 elif line.strip().startswith("--"):
  sections[current_section].append(re.search(r"--(.+?)(?=\:)", line).group(1))

# Output in desired JSON structure
with open('core-framework-css-variables.json', 'w') as f: f.write(json.dumps(sections, indent=4))

Isn't there a way to automate this a bit?
what exactly do i need to comment in css, cuz the framework has root and colors in it and colors outside of it among other things.
