css-modules-flow-types

CLI and Webpack loader for creating [Flow](https://flow.org/) type definitions based on [CSS Modules](https://github.com/css-modules/css-modules) files.
This gives you:
- auto-completing for css files in most editors
- flow type safety showing usage of non existing classes
Read more about the background in this blog post: ["Type safe CSS Modules with Flow"](https://hackernoon.com/type-safe-css-modules-with-flow-dd95e761bbe5).
## Example
Given the following css file using CSS Modules:
```css
@value primary: red;
.myClass {
color: primary;
}
```
`css-modules-flow-types` creates the following .flow file next to it:
```javascript
// @flow
/* This file is automatically generated by css-modules-flow-types */
declare module.exports: {|
+'myClass': string;
+'primary': string;
|};
```
## Usage (Webpack loader)
### style-loader
The `css-modules-flow-types-loader` need to be added right after after `style-loader`:
```sh
$ npm install --dev css-modules-flow-types-loader
$ yarn add -D css-modules-flow-types-loader
```
```javascript
{
test: /\.css$/, // or the file format you are using for your CSS Modules
use: [
'style-loader',
'css-modules-flow-types-loader',
// Other loaders like css-loader after this:
{
...
}
]
}
```
### css-loader
For `css-loader`, `css-modules-flow-types-loader` needs to come _before_
`css-loader`.
```javascript
{
test: /\.css$/, // or the file format you are using for your CSS Modules
use: [
ExtractTextPlugin.extract({
use: [
'css-modules-flow-types-loader',
{
loader: 'css-loader',
options: {}, // Any options for css-loader
}
]
})
]
}
```
## Usage (CLI)
```sh
$ npm install --dev css-modules-flow-types-cli
$ yarn add -D css-modules-flow-types-cli
```
This installs the runner as `css-modules-flow-types`.
And run `css-modules-flow-types ` command.
For example, if you have .css files under `src` directory, exec the following:
Running,
```sh
css-modules-flow-types src
```
Creates `*.css.flow` files next to all css files.
```text
(your project root)
- src/
| myStyle.css
| myStyle.css.flow [created]
```
## Troubleshooting
### Support for other file extensions
To support `.scss`, `.sass`, `.scss.module` or similar files extensions
you need to update your `.flowconfig` file with the following section:
```
[options]
; Extensions
module.file_ext=.js
module.file_ext=.jsx
module.file_ext=.json
module.file_ext=.css
module.file_ext=.scss
module.file_ext=.sass
module.file_ext=.scss.module
// other files used by flow
```
Without this Flow might error out with `Required module not found`.
### Dynamic imports in Webpack
In some cases, attempting to load imports using dynamic references could choke webpack as it attempts to parse `.flow` files and encounters unknown syntax. The solution is to exclude `.flow` files with a `webpackExclude` directive in the import statement.
If you have an import like this:
```javascript
import(
/* webpackChunkName: "[request]" */
`/Path/To/Components/${ getComponent()}`
)
```
Add `webpackExclude` like this:
```javascript
import(
/* webpackChunkName: "[request]" */
/* webpackExclude: /\.flow$/ */
`/Path/To/Components/${ getComponent()}`
)
```

## Contributing
To get started, run:
yarn
When developing:
yarn verify # (runs lint and unit test)
yarn lint
yarn test
yarn test:cov
yarn test:watch
## Deployment
On a new branch run:
yarn lerna version --no-git-tag-version
# update the CHANGELOG.md file
git add -p
git commit -m 'chore: bump version to x.x'
Once the branch is merged, the new version is deployed.
