PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link

PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link lets you :any-link pseudo-class in CSS, following the Selectors specification.

nav :any-link > span { background-color: yellow; } /* becomes */ nav :link > span, nav :visited > span { background-color: yellow; } nav :any-link > span { background-color: yellow; }

From the proposal:

The :any-link pseudo-class represents an element that acts as the source anchor of a hyperlink. It matches an element if the element would match :link or :visited.

Usage

Add PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link to your project:

npm install postcss postcss-pseudo-class-any-link --save-dev

Use PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link as a PostCSS plugin:

const postcss = require('postcss'); const postcssPseudoClassAnyLink = require('postcss-pseudo-class-any-link'); postcss([ postcssPseudoClassAnyLink(/* pluginOptions */) ]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);

PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link runs in all Node environments, with special instructions for:

Node	PostCSS CLI	Webpack	Create React App	Gulp	Grunt

Options

preserve

The preserve option determines whether the original :any-link rule is preserved. By default, it is preserved.

postcssPseudoClassAnyLink({ preserve: false }) nav :any-link > span { background-color: yellow; } /* becomes */ nav :link > span, nav :visited > span { background-color: yellow; }

subFeatures

areaHrefNeedsFixing

The subFeatures.areaHrefNeedsFixing option determines if <area href> elements should match :any-link pseudo-class.
In IE and Edge these do not match :link or :visited.

This increased CSS bundle size and is disabled by default.

postcssPseudoClassAnyLink({ subFeatures: { areaHrefNeedsFixing: true } }) nav :any-link > span { background-color: yellow; } /* becomes */ nav :link > span, nav :visited > span, area[href] > span { background-color: yellow; }
