Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

babel-plugin-short-css-vars

NPM Version Build Status License MIT

Babel plugin using short-css-vars to shorten the names of CSS variables in JavaScript code.

CSS variables are renamed with a unique hash that is consistent across processed files. This allows you to have common style files that reference variables with varying values defined in theme files.

Installation

$ npm install babel-plugin-short-css-vars --save-dev

Example

Input

const sheet = document.createElement('style');
sheet.innerHTML = `
:root { --long-variable-name-that-defines-a-particular-color: blue; }
`;

const div = document.createElement('div');
div.style.color = "var(--long-variable-name-that-defines-a-particular-color)";

Output

const sheet = document.createElement('style');
sheet.innerHTML = `
:root { --vf2dsn: blue; }
`;

const div = document.createElement('div');
div.style.color = "var(--vf2dsn)";

This plugin also works with JSX/React source.

Usage

{
  "plugins": [
    "babel-plugin-short-css-vars"
  ]
}

See the babel docs for more configuration details.

Options

This plugin supports all the utility options. Because these options will need to be a RegExp or function, the Babel config willl need to be a JavaScript configuration file.

formatter

See the utility for how the default formatting works. If you wish to use a different pattern, simply provide a different formatter function via options.

// babel.config.js
const fnv1a = require('fnv1a');

module.exports = {
  "plugins": [
    [
      "babel-plugin-short-css-vars",
      {
        formatter: name => fnv1a(name).toString(36)
      }
    ]
  ]
}

The name provided to the formatter is the variable name WITHOUT the '--' prefix. The return value should also be name-only. So my-custom-var rather than --my-custom-var.

ignore

If you need to avoid hashing certain variable names, you can ignore them with this option by either RegExp, function, or string (which will be turned into RegExp). This can be useful if you are referencing CSS Variables in an app, yet you do not have control over some of the declarations.

// babel.config.js
module.exports = {
  "plugins": [
    [
      "babel-plugin-short-css-vars",
      {
        ignore: /^third-party-theme/
      }
    ]
  ]
}

In another scenario, if you have several short variable names (for example --blue) you can use a function to ignore names by length.

postcss([shortCssVars({
  ignore: name => name.length <= 4
})])

The name provided to ignore is the variable name WITHOUT the '--' prefix. So blue rather than --blue.
