extract-css-core

extract-css-core

Extract all CSS from a given url, both server side and client side rendered.

Problem, solution and shortcomings

Problem

Existing packages like get-css look at a server-generated piece of HTML and get all the <link> and <style> tags from it. This works fine for 100% server rendered pages, and pages with CSS-in-JS styling.

Solution

This module uses an instance of Chromium to render a page. This has the benefit that most of the styles can be rendered, even when generated by JavaScript. The Puppeteer CSSCoverage API is the power behind finding most of the CSS. Additionally, the document.styleSheets API is used to get CSS-inJS styling.

Installation

npm install extract-css-core
# or
yarn add extract-css-core

Usage

const extractCss = require('extract-css-core')

const css = await extractCss('http://www.projectwallace.com')
