dark-mode.js

Beautiful Tailwindcss dark mode.

Getting started

npm install @anay69420/dark-mode.js

or

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@anay69420/[email protected]/src/index.js"></script>

Now run darkMode.init() to initialize the dark mode. Now you have 2 options:

1. Use darkMode.setDark(true/false) to set dark mode.
2. Use an element with the attribute data-dark-toggle to toggle dark mode. By default, dark mode will toggle when it is clicked, but you can change the event with the attribute data-dark-event.

to see if dark mode is enabled, use darkMode.isDark(). if you want to display if dark mode is on in the html, use the attributes data-dark-on and data-dark-off. For example: if it is dark mode then anything with data-dark-on will display 'dark' and anything with data-dark-off will display 'light'. You can also change what it displays with data-dark-d and data-dark-l respectively.

If you want some code to be executed when the mode toggles, you can do the following:

darkMode.UpdateDarkHook = dark => {
    // Code here
    // dark will be `d` if it is dark mode and `l` if it is light mode
}

In the tailwind.config.js, you can also use the darkMode function called addThemePlugin. addThemePlugin takes 3 arguments: name, classname, and addVariant. Here's an example:

const plugin = require('tailwindcss/plugin')
import '@anay69420/dark-mode.js'
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        plugin({ addVariant }) {
            darkMode.addThemePlugin('theme-neon', 'neon', addVariant)
        }
    ]
}

So let's break this down. Basically what this does is it adds another variant, theme-neon. Any class with the variant theme-neon will only be enabled when the element that has the class is a descendant of an element with the class neon. Here's an example:

  <div class="neon">
    <p class="theme-neon:text-yellow-400"></p> <!-- this p has text-yellow-400 -->
  </div>
  <p class="neon:text-yellow-400"></p> <!-- this p does not have text-yellow-400 -->

When dark mode is turned on, any tailwind class with the variant dark: (like dark:text-gray-100) will be used.
