Package Exports

css-to-react-native-alin

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 (css-to-react-native-alin) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

css-to-react-native

Converts CSS text to a React Native stylesheet object.

font-size: 18px;
line-height: 24px;
color: red;

{
  fontSize: 18,
  lineHeight: 24,
  color: 'red',
}

Converts all number-like values to numbers, and string-like to strings.

Automatically converts indirect values to their React Native equivalents.

text-shadow-offset: 10px 5px;
font-variant: small-caps;
transform: translate(10px, 5px) scale(5);

{
  textShadowOffset: { width: 10, height: 5 },
  fontVariant: ['small-caps'],
  // Fixes backwards transform order
  transform: [
    { translateY: 10 },
    { translateX: 10 },
    { scale: 5 },
  ]
}

Also allows shorthand values.

font: bold 14px/16px "Helvetica";
margin: 5px 7px 2px;

{
  fontFamily: 'Helvetica',
  fontSize: 14,
  fontWeight: 'bold',
  fontStyle: 'normal',
  fontVariant: [],
  lineHeight: 16,
  marginTop: 5,
  marginRight: 7,
  marginBottom: 2,
  marginLeft: 7,
}

Shorthands will only accept values that are supported in React, so background will only accept a colour, backgroundColor

There is also support for the box-shadow shorthand, and this converts into shadow- properties. Note that these only work on iOS.

Shorthand Notes

border{Top,Right,Bottom,Left} shorthands are not supported, because borderStyle cannot be applied to individual border sides.

API

The API is mostly for implementors. However, the main API may be useful for non-implementors. The main API is an array of [property, value] tuples.

import transform from 'css-to-react-native';
// or const transform = require('css-to-react-native').default;

transform([
  ['font', 'bold 14px/16px "Helvetica"'],
  ['margin', '5px 7px 2px'],
  ['border-left-width', '5px'],
]); // => { fontFamily: 'Helvetica', ... }

We don't provide a way to get these style tuples in this library, so you'll need to do that yourself. I expect most people will use postCSS or another CSS parser. You should try avoid getting these with string.split, as that has a lot of edge cases (colons and semi-colons apearing in comments etc.)

For implementors, there is also a few extra APIs available.

These are for specific use-cases, and most people should just be using the API above.

import { getPropertyName, getStylesForProperty } from 'css-to-react-native';

getPropertyName('border-width'); // => 'borderWidth'
getStylesForProperty('borderWidth', '1px 0px 2px 0px'); // => { borderTopWidth: 1, ... }

Should you wish to opt-out of transforming certain shorthands, an array of property names in camelCase can be passed as a second argument to transform.

transform([['border-radius', '50px']], ['borderRadius']);
// { borderRadius: 50 } rather than { borderTopLeft: ... }

This can also be done by passing a third argument, false to getStylesForProperty.
