Usage Example

Basic Usage

import { TenoxUI } from '@tenoxui/core'
import { CreaTenoxPlugin } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = new TenoxUI({
  utilities: {
    bg: 'background'
  },
  plugins: [CreaTenoxPlugin(/* createnox config here */)]
})

console.log(ui.process('bg-red'))

Output :

;[
  {
    use: 'createnox',
    className: 'bg-red',
    rules: { property: 'background', value: 'red' },
    isImportant: false,
    variant: null,
    raw: [
      /* ... */
    ]
  }
]

Quick Renderer

import { Main, starterPlugins as plugins } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

// Use createnox TenoxUI builder
const { ui } = Main({
  plugins,
  utilities: {
    // basic utility
    bg: 'background',
    // functional utility
    m: (val) => ({ margin: !isNaN(val) ? val * 0.25 + 'rem' : val })
  },
  variants: {
    // basic variants
    hover: '&:hover',
    md: '@media (width: 768px) { @slot }',
    // functional variant
    max: (value) => `@media (max-width: ${value}) { @slot }`
  }
})

console.log(ui.render('bg-red m-10 m-10px !bg-blue hover:m-3.5 !md:m-100 max-560px:m-4!'))

Output :

.bg-red { background: red }
.m-10 { margin: 2.5rem }
.m-10px { margin: 10px }
.\!bg-blue { background: blue !important }
.hover\:m-3\.5:hover { margin: 0.875rem }
@media (width: 768px) { .\!md\:m-100 { margin: 25rem !important } }
@media (max-width: 560px) { .max-560px\:m-4\! { margin: 1rem !important } }

APIs

Available Exports

import {
  Main,
  Plugin,
  CreaTenoxPlugin,
  starterPlugins,
  transform,
  Renderer,
  createResult,
  createErrorResult
} from 'createnoxui-plugin'

Main

A ready to use styler with TenoxUI, Renderer, and transformer included, giving you quick style generation without much configuration. Configuration options :

function Main({
  utilities = {},
  variants = {},
  aliases = {},
  apply = {},
  plugins = [],
  corePlugins = [],
  importantMark = 'both',
  renderOutputParent = ''
}) {
  /* ... */
}

• utilities - Define your utility rules here (e.g. { bg: 'background' })
• variants - Define your variant rules here (e.g. { hover: '&:hover' })
• aliases - Define your aliases that allow you to apply multiple classes into single utility (e.g. { 'my-class': 'bg-red hover:bg-blue' })
• apply - Same as aliases, but it will create rules for certain selector and rendered immediately (e.g. { body: 'bg-red' })
• plugins - Pass plugins for CreaTenoxPlugin here
• corePlugins - Pass plugins for TenoxUI here
• importantMark - Where should the exclamation mark (!) allowed in the class names (available options: both: allow start and end, start: only start, end: only end. default: both)
• renderOutputParent - The rendered style nested parent

Usage Example :

import { Main } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const { ui, main, render, getData } = Main({
  utilities: { bg: 'background' },
  variants: { hover: '&:hover' }
  // other configuration
})

ui

Quick style renderer you can use that built on top of the Renderer module. Usage Example :

console.log(ui.render('bg-red hover:bg-blue !hover:bg-yellow'))

Output :

.bg-red { background: red }
.hover\:bg-blue:hover { background: blue }
.\!hover\:bg-yellow:hover { background: yellow !important }

main

The TenoxUI instnace that passed to the ui (Renderer). Example usage :

console.log(main.process('bg-red hover:bg-blue !hover:bg-yellow'))

Output :

;[
  {
    use: 'createnox',
    className: 'bg-red',
    rules: { property: 'background', value: 'red' },
    isImportant: false,
    variant: null,
    raw: [
      /* ... */
    ]
  },
  {
    use: 'createnox',
    className: 'hover:bg-blue',
    rules: { property: 'background', value: 'blue' },
    isImportant: false,
    variant: '&:hover',
    raw: [
      /* ... */
    ]
  },
  {
    use: 'createnox',
    className: '!hover:bg-yellow',
    rules: { property: 'background', value: 'yellow' },
    isImportant: true,
    variant: '&:hover',
    raw: [
      /* ... */
    ]
  }
]

render and getData

Just a reference to Renderer.render and TenoxUI.process

Plugin & CreaTenoxPlugin

A single, configurable main cratenox plugin you ever need. Example Usage :

import { TenoxUI } from '@tenoxui/core'
import { Plugin } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = new TenoxUI({
  plugins: [
    Plugin({
      /* configuration here */
    })
  ]
})

Configuration Options

• importantMark - Same description in the Main function
• aliases - The aliases for main Renderer, will be passed to the matcher's property pattern
• plugins - Plugin inside plugin? Hell yeah. It offers simplified methods and APIs for creating TenoxUI plugins

Plugins's Plugins

The plugins option offer simplified APIs for you to use for creating TenoxUI plugin. Example :

• Modify matcher easily

import { TenoxUI } from '@tenoxui/core'
import { Plugin } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = new TenoxUI({
  utilities: { bg: '...' },
  plugins: [
    Plugin({
      importantMark: 'none',
      plugins: [
        {
          name: 'add-matcher',
          regexp: () => ({ property: ['my-class', '\\[[^\\]]+\\]+'] })
        }
      ]
    })
  ]
})

console.log(ui.matcher)

Output :

/^(?:(?<variant>[\w.-]+):)?(?<property>bg|my-class|\[[^\]]+\]+)(?:-(?<value>[\w.-]+?))?$/

And without createnox plugin, you have to write this to get the same output :

const ui = new TenoxUI({
  utilities: { bg: '...' },
  plugins: [
    {
      name: 'add-matcher',
      regexp: ({ patterns }) => ({
        patterns: {
          property: patterns.property + '|my-class|\\[[^\\]]+\\]+'
        }
      })
    }
  ]
})

The Plugin also support more hooks that'll passed to TenoxUI such as init for onInit, utility for processUtilities, value for processValue, and variant for processVariant.

starterPlugins

A curated started plugins for CreaTenoxPlugin or Plugin. What's inside :

• basicUtilityProcessorPlugin - Default, basic TenoxUI data-to-createnox transformer
• functionalUtilityPlugin - Basic functional utility support
• functionalVariant - Functional variant support
• arbitraryValuePlugin - Arbitrary value support

Example usage :

import { Main, starterPlugins as plugins } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = Main({
  utilities: {
    // basic utilities {type: property}
    bg: 'background',

    // static utilities
    flex: 'display: flex; &:hover { display: grid }',
    'my-class': {
      position: 'fixed !important',
      background: ['red', true]
    },

    // functional utility
    m: (value) =>
      // must have `value`
      !value ? null : { margin: !isNaN(value) ? 0.25 * value + 'rem' : value }
  },

  variants: {
    // basic variants
    hover: '&:hover',
    md: '@media (width: 768px) {\n  @slot\n}',

    // functional variants
    max: (value) => `@media (max-width: ${value}) {\n  @slot\n}`,
    min: (value) => `@media (min-width: ${value}) {\n  @slot\n}`
  },

  plugins
})

console.log(
  ui.render([
    'bg-red',
    'flex',
    'my-class',
    'm-10',
    'm-10px',
    // with variants
    'hover:bg-red',
    'md:m-3.5',
    'max-768px:my-class',
    'min-768px:flex'
  ])
)

Output :

.bg-red { background: red }
.flex { display: flex; &:hover { display: grid } }
.my-class { position: fixed !important; background: red !important }
.m-10 { margin: 2.5rem }
.m-10px { margin: 10px }
.hover\:bg-red:hover { background: red }
@media (width: 768px) {
  .md\:m-3\.5 { margin: 0.875rem }
}
@media (max-width: 768px) {
  .max-768px\:my-class { position: fixed !important; background: red !important }
}
@media (min-width: 768px) {
  .min-768px\:flex { display: flex; &:hover { display: grid } }
}

transform

CreaTenox default data-to-css transformer.

Basic Usage

transform function can be used directly to process data into CSS rules :

import { transform } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

console.log(
  transform([
    // valid data
    {
      use: 'createnox',
      className: 'bg-red',
      rules: { property: 'background', value: 'red' },
      isImportant: true
    },
    // invalid data
    {
      use: 'createnox',
      className: 'my-class',
      rules: null
    },
    // invalid data (not createnox data)
    {
      className: 'hello'
    }
  ])
)

Output :

{
  rules: [ ".bg-red { background: red !important }" ],
  invalid: {
    createnox: [ { use: "createnox", className: "my-class", rules: null } ],
    rest: [ { className: "hello" } ]
  }
}

Integration

Or you can make the TenoxUI generate the data for you :

import { TenoxUI } from '@tenoxui/core'
import { Plugin, transform, starterPlugins as plugins } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = new TenoxUI({
  utilities: { bg: 'background' },
  variants: { hover: '&:hover' },
  plugins: [Plugin({ plugins })]
})

console.log(transform(ui.process(['bg-red', 'hover:bg-blue', '!hover:bg-yellow'])))

Output :

{
  rules: [
    ".bg-red { background: red }",
    ".hover\\:bg-blue:hover { background: blue }",
    ".\\!hover\\:bg-yellow:hover { background: yellow !important }"
  ],
  invalid: { createnox: [], rest: [] }
}

Renderer

A complete CSS renderer for createnoxui-plugin to use with ease. Usage example :

import { TenoxUI } from '@tenoxui/core'
import { Plugin, Renderer, starterPlugins as plugins } from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = new Renderer({
  main: new TenoxUI({
    utilities: { bg: 'background' },
    variants: { hover: '&:hover' },
    plugins: [Plugin({ plugins })]
  }),
  apply: { body: 'bg-red' },
  parent: 'html#nsx'
})

console.log(ui.render(['bg-red', 'hover:bg-blue', '!hover:bg-yellow']))

Output :

html#nsx {
  body { background: red }
  .bg-red { background: red }
  .hover\:bg-blue:hover { background: blue }
  .\!hover\:bg-yellow:hover { background: yellow !important }
}

createResult & createErrorResult

Helper functions to generate supported data pattern for the transformer. Usage example :

import {
  Main,
  createResult as pass,
  createErrorResult as fail,
  transform
} from 'createnoxui-plugin'

const ui = Main({
  plugins: [
    {
      name: 'create-data',
      regexp: () => ({ property: ['class1', 'class2'] }),
      process(className) {
        if (className === 'class1') {
          return pass({ className, rules: { display: 'flex', color: 'blue' } })
        }
        if (className === 'class2') {
          return fail({ className })
        }
      }
    }
  ]
})

console.log(transform(ui.getData(['class1', 'class2'])))

Output :

{
  rules: [ ".class1 { display: flex; color: blue }" ],
  invalid: {
    createnox: [
      {
        use: "createnox",
        className: "class2",
        rules: null,
        reason: "Unknown reason"
      }
    ],
    rest: []
  }
}
