Demo01: Local Scope
demo / sources
CSS rules are global. The only way of making a local-scoped rule is to generate a unique class name, so no other selectors will have collisions with it. That is exactly what CSS Modules do.
The following is a react component App.js
.
import React from 'react';
import style from './App.css';
export default () => {
return (
<h1 className={style.title}>
Hello World
</h1>
);
};
In above codes, we import a CSS module from App.css
into a style
object, and use style.title
to represent a class name.
.title {
color: red;
}
The build runner will compile the class name style.title
into a hash string.
<h1 class="_3zyde4l1yATCOkgn-DBWEL">
Hello World
</h1>
And App.css
is also compiled.
._3zyde4l1yATCOkgn-DBWEL {
color: red;
}
Now this class name becomes unique and only effective to the App
component.
CSS Modules provides plugins for different build runners. This repo uses css-loader
for Webpack, since it support CSS Modules best and is easy to use. By
the way, if you don't know Webpack, please read my tutorial Webpack-Demos.
The following is our webpack.config.js
.
module.exports = {
entry: __dirname + '/index.js',
output: {
publicPath: '/',
filename: './bundle.js'
},
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.jsx?$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: 'babel',
query: {
presets: ['es2015', 'stage-0', 'react']
}
},
{
test: /\.css$/,
loader: "style-loader!css-loader?modules"
},
]
}
};
The magic line is loader: "style-loader!css-loader?modules"
, which appends the query parameter modules
after css-loader
enabling the CSS Modules feature.
Now run the demo.
$ npm run demo01
Open Http://localhost:8080, you should see the h1
in red.
Demo02: Global Scope
demo / sources
The syntax :global(.className)
could be used to declare a global selector explicitly. CSS Modules will not compile this class name into hash string.
First, add a global class into App.css
.
.title {
color: red;
}
:global(.title) {
color: green;
}
Then use the global CSS class in App.js
.
import React from 'react';
import styles from './App.css';
export default () => {
return (
<h1 className="title">
Hello World
</h1>
);
};
Run the demo.
$ npm run demo02
Open http://localhost:8080, you should see the h1
title in green.
CSS Modules also has a explicit local scope syntax :local(.className)
which is equivalent to .className
. So the above App.css
could be written in another form.
:local(.title) {
color: red;
}
:global(.title) {
color: green;
}
Demo03: Customized Hash Class Name
demo / sources
CSS-loader's default hash algorithm is [hash:base64]
, which compiles.title
into something like ._3zyde4l1yATCOkgn-DBWEL
.
You could customize it in webpack.config.js
.
module: {
loaders: [
// ...
{
test: /\.css$/,
loader: "style-loader!css-loader?modules&localIdentName=[path][name]---[local]---[hash:base64:5]"
},
]
}
Run the demo.
$ npm run demo03
You will find .title
hashed into demo03-components-App---title---GpMto
.
Demo04: Composing CSS Classes
demo / sources
In CSS Modules, a selector could inherit another selector's rules, which is called "composition".
We let .title
inherit .className
in App.css
.
.className {
background-color: blue;
}
.title {
composes: className;
color: red;
}
App.js
is the same.
import React from 'react';
import style from './App.css';
export default () => {
return (
<h1 className={style.title}>
Hello World
</h1>
);
};
Run the demo.
$ npm run demo04
You should see a red h1
title in a blue background.
After the building process, App.css
is converted into the following codes.
._2DHwuiHWMnKTOYG45T0x34 {
color: red;
}
._10B-buq6_BEOTOl9urIjf8 {
background-color: blue;
}
And the HTML element h1
's class names should look like <h1 class="_2DHwuiHWMnKTOYG45T0x34 _10B-buq6_BEOTOl9urIjf8">
,
Demo05: Import Other Modules
demo / sources
You also could inherit rules from another CSS file.
another.css
.className {
background-color: blue;
}
App.css
.title {
composes: className from './another.css';
color: red;
}
Run the demo.
$ npm run demo05
You should see a red h1
title in a blue background.
Demo06: Exporting Values Variables
demo / sources
You could use variables in CSS Modules. This feature is provided by PostCSS and the postcss-modules-values plugin.
$ npm install --save postcss-loader postcss-modules-values
Add postcss-loader
into webpack.config.js
.
var values = require('postcss-modules-values');
module.exports = {
entry: __dirname + '/index.js',
output: {
publicPath: '/',
filename: './bundle.js'
},
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.jsx?$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: 'babel',
query: {
presets: ['es2015', 'stage-0', 'react']
}
},
{
test: /\.css$/,
loader: "style-loader!css-loader?modules!postcss-loader"
},
]
},
postcss: [
values
]
};
Next, set up your values/variables in colors.css
.
@value blue: #0c77f8;
@value red: #ff0000;
@value green: #aaf200;
Then import them into App.css
.
@value colors: "./colors.css";
@value blue, red, green from colors;
.title {
color: red;
background-color: blue;
}
Run the demo.
$ npm run demo06
