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:
```bash
npm install oncss
```
Import the `css` function in your project:
```javascript
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 `@media` rules.
- **Keyframes**: Create animations with `@keyframes`.
- **Global Styles**: Apply styles globally with `@global`.
- **Custom Breakpoints**: Define reusable breakpoints for responsiveness.
- **Other At-Rules**: Utilize additional at-rules like `@container`, `@layer`, and `@supports`.
### Basic Example
```typescript
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);
```
---
## 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. Receives `prop`, `value`, and `dept` as arguments. |
| `getValue` | `function` | Transforms property values dynamically. Receives `value`, `prop`, `css`, and `dept` as arguments. |
| `getProps` | `function` | Customizes specific property handling. Receives `prop`, `value`, `css`, and `dept` as arguments. |
### Example with Options
```typescript
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:
```typescript
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
```typescript
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 Click Me;
}
export default Button;
```
---
## Advanced Features
### Nested Selectors
Apply styles to child elements or pseudo-classes:
```typescript
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:
```typescript
const responsiveStyles = css({
fontSize: '14px',
'@media (min-width: 768px)': {
fontSize: '18px',
},
});
```
### Keyframes
Define and use animations:
```typescript
const animationStyles = css({
'@keyframes fadeIn': {
from: { opacity: 0 },
to: { opacity: 1 },
},
animation: 'fadeIn 2s ease-in-out',
});
```
### Global Styles
Apply global styles effortlessly:
```typescript
const globalStyles = css({
'@global': {
body: {
margin: 0,
fontFamily: 'Arial, sans-serif',
},
a: {
color: 'blue',
textDecoration: 'none',
},
},
});
```

## Supported At-Rules
`oncss` supports various CSS at-rules to enhance your styling capabilities. Here is a list of supported at-rules with descriptions:
| At-Rule | Description |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `@media` | Used for applying styles based on media queries for responsive design. |
| `@keyframes` | Defines animations that can be applied to elements. |
| `@global` | Applies styles globally across the entire application. |
| `@container` | Used for container queries to apply styles based on container size. |
| `@layer` | Defines style layers to control the order of style application. |
| `@supports` | Applies styles based on the support of specific CSS features in the browser. |
---
## Server-Side Styling
`oncss` supports server-side rendering (SSR) by utilizing the `CSSFactory` to store and manage generated CSS styles. This allows you to extract and inject styles into your server-rendered HTML.
### Example with React
Here's an example of how to use `oncss` for server-side rendering with React:
```tsx
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOMServer from 'react-dom/server';
import css, { CSSFactory } from 'oncss';
const buttonStyle = css({
backgroundColor: 'blue',
color: 'white',
padding: '10px 20px',
borderRadius: '5px',
'&:hover': {
backgroundColor: 'darkblue',
},
});
function Button() {
return Click Me;
}
const App = () => (
);
// Render the component to a string
const html = ReactDOMServer.renderToString();
let styles: any = Array.from(CSSFactory.values()).map((style) => {
return `${style.css}`
});
// Inject the styles into the HTML
const fullHtml = `
SSR with oncss
${styles}
${html}
`;
console.log(fullHtml);
```
In this example, the `CSSFactory` is used to collect all generated CSS styles during the server-side rendering process. These styles are then injected into the HTML document, ensuring that the styles are applied correctly when the page is loaded in the browser.
---
## Utility Functions
### CSSFactory
`CSSFactory` is a global cache for storing generated CSS styles. It helps in reusing styles and avoiding redundant style generation.
### formatCSSProp
`formatCSSProp` is a utility function that converts camelCase CSS property names to kebab-case.
```typescript
import { formatCSSProp } from 'oncss';
const formattedProp = formatCSSProp('backgroundColor');
console.log(formattedProp); // 'background-color'
```
### formatCSSValue
`formatCSSValue` is a utility function that formats CSS values, adding units like `px` where necessary.
```typescript
import { formatCSSValue } from 'oncss';
const formattedValue = formatCSSValue('width', 100);
console.log(formattedValue); // '100px'
```
---
## 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:
```typescript
import { CSSProps } from 'oncss';
interface MyAliases {
customColor?: string;
}
const styles: CSSProps = {
backgroundColor: 'blue',
customColor: 'red',
'@media (min-width: 768px)': {
backgroundColor: 'green',
},
};
```
### Using Options with Types
You can also define types for the options object:
```typescript
import { CSSOptionProps } from 'oncss';
const options: CSSOptionProps = {
classPrefix: 'myprefix',
breakpoints: {
sm: 480,
md: 768,
lg: 1024,
},
aliases: {
customColor: (value) => ({ color: value }),
},
};
const styles = css({
fontSize: 16,
padding: 10,
}, options);
```
