Package Exports
- oncss
- oncss/index.js
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 (oncss) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
oncss
oncss is a CSS-in-JS library that provides developers with a powerful css function to style their web applications. It enables modern styling techniques, including nested selectors, responsive design, and dynamic keyframes, all while offering seamless integration with JavaScript frameworks like React.
Installation
Install the oncss package via npm:
npm install oncssImport the css function in your project:
import css from 'oncss';Core Concept: The css Function
The css function is the heart of oncss, designed to dynamically generate and inject CSS into your application. It supports:
- CSS Properties: Use standard CSS properties and values.
- Nested Selectors: Apply styles to child elements or states using
&. - Media Queries: Implement responsive designs with
@mediarules. - Keyframes: Create animations with
@keyframes. - Global Styles: Apply styles globally with
@global. - Custom Breakpoints: Define reusable breakpoints for responsiveness.
Basic Example
const buttonStyles = css({
backgroundColor: 'blue',
color: 'white',
padding: '10px 20px',
borderRadius: '5px',
'&:hover': {
backgroundColor: 'darkblue',
},
'@media (min-width: 768px)': {
padding: '15px 30px',
},
});
console.log(buttonStyles.toString());Configuration Options
The css function can be customized through an options object:
Available Properties
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
classPrefix |
string |
Adds a prefix to generated class names. |
breakpoints |
object |
Custom breakpoints for responsive designs. |
aliases |
object |
Custom shorthand properties for CSS rules. |
injectStyle |
boolean |
Controls whether styles are auto-injected. |
skipProps |
function |
Filters out unwanted properties. |
getValue |
function |
Transforms property values dynamically. |
getProps |
function |
Customizes specific property handling. |
Example with Options
const styles = css({
fontSize: 16,
padding: 10,
}, {
classPrefix: 'myprefix',
breakpoints: {
sm: 480,
md: 768,
lg: 1024,
},
});Using Breakpoints
You can use the defined breakpoints in your styles to create responsive designs:
const responsiveStyles = css({
fontSize: 14,
padding: {
sm: 12,
lg: 24
},
}, {
breakpoints: {
sm: 480,
md: 768,
lg: 1024,
},
});React Integration
oncss integrates seamlessly with React. Simply pass the generated class name to your component.
React Example
import React from 'react';
import css from 'oncss';
const buttonStyle = css({
backgroundColor: 'green',
color: 'white',
padding: '10px 20px',
borderRadius: '8px',
'&:hover': {
backgroundColor: 'darkgreen',
},
});
function Button() {
return <button className={buttonStyle.toString()}>Click Me</button>;
}
export default Button;Advanced Features
Nested Selectors
Apply styles to child elements or pseudo-classes:
const cardStyles = css({
padding: '20px',
border: '1px solid #ccc',
'& h1': {
fontSize: '24px',
margin: 0,
},
'&:hover': {
boxShadow: '0 4px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1)',
},
});Media Queries
Easily add responsive styles:
const responsiveStyles = css({
fontSize: '14px',
'@media (min-width: 768px)': {
fontSize: '18px',
},
});Keyframes
Define and use animations:
const animationStyles = css({
'@keyframes fadeIn': {
from: { opacity: 0 },
to: { opacity: 1 },
},
animation: 'fadeIn 2s ease-in-out',
});Global Styles
Apply global styles effortlessly:
const globalStyles = css({
'@global': {
body: {
margin: 0,
fontFamily: 'Arial, sans-serif',
},
a: {
color: 'blue',
textDecoration: 'none',
},
},
});TypeScript Integration
oncss provides full TypeScript support, allowing you to define types for your CSS properties and options.
Defining CSS Properties
You can define the types for your CSS properties using the CSSProps type:
import { CSSProps } from 'oncss';
interface MyAliases {
customColor?: string;
}
const styles: CSSProps<MyAliases, 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'> = {
backgroundColor: 'blue',
customColor: 'red',
'@media (min-width: 768px)': {
backgroundColor: 'green',
},
};Using Options with Types
You can also define types for the options object:
import { CSSOptionProps } from 'oncss';
const options: CSSOptionProps<MyAliases, 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'> = {
classPrefix: 'myprefix',
breakpoints: {
sm: 480,
md: 768,
lg: 1024,
},
aliases: {
customColor: (prop, value) => ({ color: value }),
},
};
const styles = css({
fontSize: 16,
padding: 10,
}, options);Conclusion
oncss simplifies styling for modern web applications. Its robust feature set, from responsive design to keyframe animations, makes it an invaluable tool for developers.
