###Add the plugin to file config

// tailwind.config.js
{
  plugins: [
    require('@mellambias/tailwind-column-rule'),
  ],
}

This plugin adds utilities to use column-rule-width, column-rule-style, and column-rule-color properties with Tailwind CSS.

column-rule-width

The column-rule-width CSS property sets the width of the line drawn between columns in a multi-column layout.

By default the plugin uses the borderWidth properties from your theme to generate the utilities for controlling de line weight

Class	Properties
rule-w-0	column-rule-width: 0px;
rule-w-2	column-rule-width: 2px;
rule-w-4	column-rule-width: 4px;
rule-w-8	column-rule-width: 8px;
rule-w	column-rule-width: 1px;

Applying conditionally

You let conditionally apply utility classes in different states using variant modifiers.

<div class="hover:rule-w-0">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries

<div class="md:rule-w-3">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Customizing your theme

By default, this plugin provides five border-width utilities. You change, add, or remove these by editing the theme.borderWidth section of your Tailwind config. Or the plugin theme.ruleWidth

// tailwind.config.js
{
  theme: {
    ruleWidth: {
        10: "10px",
    },
  plugins: [
    require('@mellambias/tailwind-column-rule'),
  ],
}

Arbitrary values

If you need to use a one-off rule-w-{width} value that doesn’t make sense to include in your theme, use square brackets to generate a property on the fly using any arbitrary value.

<div class="rule-w-[15px]">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

column-rule-style

The column-rule-style CSS property sets the style of the line drawn between columns in a multi-column layout.

By default the plugin uses the ruleStyle properties from your theme to generate the utilities for controlling de line style.

Class	Properties
rule-style-solid	column-rule-style: solid;
rule-style-dashed	column-rule-style: dashed;
rule-style-dotted	column-rule-style: dotted;
rule-style-double	column-rule-style: double;
rule-style-hidden	column-rule-style: hidden;
rule-style-none	column-rule-style: none;

Applying conditionally

You let conditionally apply utility classes in different states using variant modifiers.

<div class="hover:rule-style-dotted">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries

<div class="md:rule-style-double">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

    },
  plugins: [
    require('@mellambias/tailwind-column-rule'),
  ],
}

column-rule-color

The column-rule-color CSS property sets the color of the line drawn between columns in a multi-column layout.

By default the plugin uses the colors properties from your theme to generate the utilities for controlling de line color.

rule-color-inherit	column-rule-color: inherit;
rule-color-current	column-rule-color: current;
rule-color-transparent	column-rule-color: transparent;
rule-color-black	column-rule-color: rgb(0 0 0);
