EsifyCSS

Generates modules from CSS.

EsifyCSS consists of a PostCSS plugin and a Runner.

PostCSS plugin

The plugin converts the identifiers in CSS and minifies them. It outputs the result of minifications using Root.warn().

Runner

A runner process .css files in your project with PostCSS and output the results to .css.js or .css.ts.

Example

Assume you have following sample.css:

@keyframes foo {
    0% {
        transform: rotate(0deg);
    }
    100% {
        transform: rotate(720deg);
    }
}
#bar1 {
    animation: 1s foo;
}
#bar2 {
    animation: 2s foo;
}
.baz1 {
    animation: 3s foo;
}
.baz2 {
    animation: 4s bar;
}

Then, run the command:

$ esifycss sample.css

You'll get the following file:

// sample.css.js
import {addStyle} from './helper.js';
addStyle([
  "qBsBKAMCSUCWGYaSceIEuBUCWGYawBceIEE",
  "gBASCOGiBQKAMIE",
  "gBAiBCOGkBQKAMIE",
  "mBAkBCOGoBQKAMIE",
  "mBAoBCOGMQKyBIE"
]);
export const className = {
    "baz1": "_2",
    "baz2": "_3"
};
export const id = {
    "bar1": "_0",
    "bar2": "_1"
};
export const keyframes = {
    "foo": "_4"
};

Each string given to addStyle represents a CSS string. They are inserted to the document's stylesheet by the helper script. Classnames, identifiers, and keyframes are shortened uniquely and it makes styles modular. This means you don't have to concern about naming somethings.

Installation

npm install --save-dev esifycss

Usage

Usage: esifycss [options] <include ...>

Options:
  -V, --version         output the version number
  --output <path>       A path to the helper script.
  --config <path>       A path to configuration files.
  --exclude <path ...>  Paths or patterns to be excluded.
  --watch               Watch files and update the modules automatically.
  -h, --help            output usage information

@import Syntax

You can use @import syntax when the style declarations requires names in external files.

Example: Assume you have the following a.css and b.css.

/* a.css */
.container {...} /* → ._0 */

/* b.css */
.container {...} /* → ._1 */

The container class names will be shortened to unique names like _0 and _1. You can import the shortened names with the @import syntax.

/* "modA-" is prefix for a.css */
@import './a.css' modA-;
/* "bbbb" is prefix for b.css */
@import './b.css' BBB;
.wrapper>.modA-container {...} /* → ._2>._0 */
.wrapper>.BBBcontainer {...}   /* → ._2>._1 */

JavaScript API for Runner

import {Session} from 'esifycss';
new Session(options).start()
.then(() => console.log('Done'))
.catch((error) => console.error(error));

Options

export interface ISessionOptions {
  /**
   * Pattern(s) to be included
   * @default "** / *.css"
   */
  include?: string | Array<string>,
  /**
   * Pattern(s) to be excluded.
   * @default []
   */
  exclude?: anymatch.Matcher,
  /**
   * Where this plugin outputs the helper script.
   * The hash in the default value is calculated from the include.
   * @default "helper.{hash}.css.js"
   */
  helper?: string,
  /**
   * It it is true, a watcher is enabled.
   * @default false
   */
  watch?: boolean,
  /**
   * Options passed to chokidar.
   * You can't set ignoreInitial to true.
   * @default {
   *   ignore: exclude,
   *   ignoreInitial: false,
   *   useFsEvents: false,
   * }
   */
  chokidar?: chokidar.WatchOptions,
  /**
   * An array of postcss plugins.
   * esifycss.plugin is appended to this array.
   * @default []
   */
  postcssPlugins?: Array<postcss.AcceptedPlugin>,
  /**
   * Parameters for esifycss.plugin.
   */
  esifycssPluginParameter?: IPluginOptions,
  /**
   * A stream where the runner outputs logs.
   * @default process.stdout
   */
  stdout?: stream.Writable,
  /**
   * A stream where the runner outputs errorlogs.
   * @default process.stderr
   */
  stderr?: stream.Writable,
}

JavaScript API for Plugin

const postcss = require('postcss');
const esifycss = require('esifycss');
postcss([
  esifycss.plugin({/* Plugin Options */}),
])
.process(css, {from: '/foo/bar.css'})
.then((result) => {
  const pluginResult = esifycss.extractPluginResult(result);
  console.log(pluginResult);
  // → {
  //   class: {bar: '_1'},
  //   id: {foo: '_0'},
  //   keyframes: {aaa: '_2'},
  // }
});

The code is at sample/plugin.js. You can run it by node sample/plugin.js after cloning this repository and running npm run build.

Options

export interface IPluginOptions {
    /**
     * When it is true, this plugin minifies classnames.
     * @default true
     */
    mangle?: boolean,
    /**
     * A function returns an unique number from a given file id. If you process
     * CSS files in multiple postcss processes, you should create an identifier
     * outside the processes and pass it as this value to keep the uniqueness
     * of mangled outputs.
     * @default esifycss.createIdentifier()
     */
    identifier?: IIdentifier,
    /**
     * Names starts with this value are not passed to mangler but replaced with
     * unprefixed names.
     * @default "raw-"
     */
    rawPrefix?: string,
    /**
     * A custom mangler: (*id*, *type*, *name*) => string.
     * - *id*: string. A filepath to the CSS.
     * - *type*: 'id' | 'class' | 'keyframes'. The type of *name*
     * - *name*: string. An identifier in the style.
     *
     * If mangler is set, `mangle` and `identifier` options are ignored.
     *
     * For example, If the plugin processes `.foo{color:green}` in `/a.css`,
     * The mangler is called with `("/a.css", "class", "foo")`. A mangler should
     * return an unique string for each input pattern or the styles will be
     * overwritten unexpectedly.
     * @default undefined
     */
    mangler?: IPluginMangler,
