# property-whitelist Specify a whitelist of allowed properties. ```css a { display: block; } /** ↑ * These properties */ ``` This rule ignores variables (`$sass`, `@less`, `--custom-property`). ## Options `array|string`: `["array", "of", "unprefixed", "properties" or "regex"]|"property"|"/regex/"` If a string is surrounded with `"/"` (e.g. `"/^background/"`), it is interpreted as a regular expression. This allows, for example, easy targeting of shorthands: `/^background/` will match `background`, `background-size`, `background-color`, etc. Given: ```js ["display", "animation", "/^background/"] ``` The following patterns are considered warnings: ```css a { color: pink; } ``` ```css a { animation: my-animation 2s; color: pink; } ``` ```css a { borkgrund: orange; } ``` The following patterns are *not* considered warnings: ```css a { display: block; } ``` ```css a { -webkit-animation: my-animation 2s; } ``` ```css a { animation: my-animation 2s; -webkit-animation: my-animation 2s; display: block; } ``` ```css a { background: pink; } ``` ```css a { background-color: pink; } ```
