Package Exports

classnames
classnames/dedupe

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (classnames) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Classnames

A simple javascript utility for conditionally joining classNames together.

Install with npm or Bower.

npm install classnames

Use with node.js, browserify or webpack:

var classNames = require('classnames');
classNames('foo', 'bar'); // => 'foo bar'

Alternatively, you can simply include index.js on your page with a standalone <script> tag and it will export a global classNames method, or define the module if you are using RequireJS.

Project philosophy

We take the stability and performance of this package seriously, because it is run millions of times a day in browsers all around the world. Updates are thoroughly reviewed for performance impacts before being released, and we have a comprehensive test suite.

Classnames follows the SemVer standard for versioning.

There is also a Changelog.

Usage

The classNames function takes any number of arguments which can be a string or object. The argument 'foo' is short for { foo: true }. If the value of the key is falsy, it won't be included in the output.

classNames('foo', 'bar'); // => 'foo bar'
classNames('foo', { bar: true }); // => 'foo bar'
classNames({ foo: true }, { bar: true }); // => 'foo bar'
classNames({ foo: true, bar: true }); // => 'foo bar'

// lots of arguments of various types
classNames('foo', { bar: true, duck: false }, 'baz', { quux: true }) // => 'foo bar baz quux'

// other falsy values are just ignored
classNames(null, false, 'bar', undefined, 0, 1, { baz: null }, ''); // => 'bar 1'

Arrays will be recursively flattened as per the rules above:

var arr = ['b', { c: true, d: false }];
classNames('a', arr); // => 'a b c'

Alternate `dedupe` version

There is an alternate version of classNames available which correctly dedupes classes and ensures that falsy classes specified in later arguments are excluded from the result set.

For example:

classNames('foo', 'foo', 'bar'); // => 'foo bar'
classNames('foo', { foo: false, bar: true }); // => 'bar'

This version is slower (about 10x) so it is offered as an opt-in.

To use the dedupe version with node, browserify or webpack:

var classNames = require('classnames/dedupe');

Or for standalone (global / AMD) use, include dedupe.js in a <script> tag on your page.

Polyfills needed to support older browsers

`classNames >=2.0.0`

Array.isArray: see MDN for details about unsupported older browsers (e.g. <= IE8) and a simple polyfill. Object.keys: see MDN for details about unsupported older browsers (e.g. <= IE8) and a simple polyfill. This is only used in dedupe.js.
