Package Exports

react-tailwind-converter/dist/index.mjs

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

Readme

React Tailwind Converter

Version: 1.0.53

Description

react-tailwind-converter is a utility package that allows developers to style React components using props, instead of adding Tailwind CSS classes directly. This enables a more structured and consistent approach to component styling in projects, particularly within a monorepo setup.

This package includes support for dynamic class generation, a predefined color system, and a configurable safe list of classes. It’s especially useful for teams looking to streamline their Tailwind usage in a React environment.

Features

Prop-Based Styling: Pass Tailwind-compatible styles as props to components, making them more readable and maintainable.
Color Tokens: Use predefined colors to ensure consistency across your components.
Safe List Generation: Dynamically generates and extends Tailwind’s safe list to avoid purging necessary styles.
Box Component: A flexible Box component that leverages Tailwind CSS through prop-based styling.

Installation

Install the package via npm or yarn:

npm install react-tailwind-converter
# or
yarn add react-tailwind-converter

Usage

Basic Usage

The package exports a styled Box component that you can use in your React application.

Here’s a quick example:

import { Box } from "react-tailwind-converter";

function App() {
  return (
    <Box
      mt="16"
      mb="8"
      ml={{ xs: "80", lg: "32" }}
      borderRadius="3xl"
      padding="20"
      borderWidth="4"
      borderColor="danger-400"
      textColor="black"
      bgc="warning-500"
      borderStyle="solid"
    >
      Testing Box
    </Box>
  );
}

Tailwind Configuration

In your tailwind.config.js, import the safeList and colorMap and add them as follows:

import type { Config } from "tailwindcss";
import { safeList } from "react-tailwind-converter";
import { colorMap } from "react-tailwind-converter";

export default {
  content: [
    "./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
    "./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
    "./app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
  ],
  safelist: safeList(),
  theme: {
    extend: {
      colors: colorMap,
      screens: {
        xs: '0px',
        sm: '640px',
        md: '768px',
        lg: '1024px',
        xl: '1280px',
        '2xl': '1536px',
      },
    },
  },
  plugins: [],
} satisfies Config;

Available Components

Box

A flexible container component with prop-based styling.

import { Box } from "react-tailwind-converter";

<Box padding="10" bgc="primary-500" borderRadius="lg">
  Content goes here
</Box>

Color Configuration

The package provides two ways to configure your colors:

1. Using Default Colors (Inspired by NextUI)

The simplest way is to use our default color tokens (inspired by NextUI's color system):

import type { Config } from "tailwindcss";
import { safeList, colorMap } from "react-tailwind-converter";

export default {
  content: [
    "./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
    "./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
    "./app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
  ],
  safelist: safeList(),
  theme: {
    colors: colorMap,  // Uses our default color system
  },
  plugins: [],
} satisfies Config;

2. Custom Colors

You can define your own colors, but you must maintain the same token structure. Your colors object needs to include these specific keys:

import type { Config } from "tailwindcss";
import { safeList } from "react-tailwind-converter";  // Don't import colorMap when using custom colors

export default {
  content: [...],
  safelist: safeList(),
  theme: {
    colors: {
      // Required base colors
      background: string,      // e.g., '#FFFFFF'
      foreground: string,      
      white: string,
      black: string,
      transparent: string,
      whiteTransparent: string,
      divider: string,
      focus: string,
      'content-1': string,
      'content-2': string,
      'content-3': string,
      'content-4': string,

      // Required color scales (must include 50-900)
      primary: {
        50: string,
        100: string,
        // ... through 900
      },
      default: {
        // same structure as primary
      },
      success: {
        // same structure as primary
      },
      warning: {
        // same structure as primary
      },
      danger: {
        // same structure as primary
      }
    }
  },
  plugins: [],
} satisfies Config;

For example, you could use different color values while maintaining the structure:

theme: {
  colors: {
    background: 'peachpuff',
    primary: {
      50: '#your-color',
      100: '#your-color',
      // ... etc
    },
    // ... other required tokens
  }
}

The Box component will use these color tokens via props like bgc="primary-500" or textColor="danger-200".
