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 🙏

Use PostCSS to style your React Native apps.

Behind the scenes the PostCSS files are transformed to react native style objects (look at the examples).

This transformer can be used together with React Native CSS modules.

How does it work?

Your App.css file might look like this (using postcss-css-variables plugin):

:root {
  --blue-color: blue;
}

.myClass {
  color: var(--blue-color);
}
.myOtherClass {
  color: red;
}
.my-dashed-class {
  color: green;
}

When you import your stylesheet:

import styles from "./App.css";

Your imported styles will look like this:

var styles = {
  myClass: {
    color: "blue"
  },
  myOtherClass: {
    color: "red"
  },
  "my-dashed-class": {
    color: "green"
  }
};

You can then use that style object with an element:

Plain React Native:

<MyElement style={styles.myClass} />

<MyElement style={styles["my-dashed-class"]} />

React Native CSS modules using className property:

<MyElement className={styles.myClass} />

<MyElement className={styles["my-dashed-class"]} />

React Native CSS modules using styleName property:

<MyElement styleName="myClass my-dashed-class" />

Installation and configuration

Step 1: Install

yarn add --dev react-native-postcss-transformer postcss

Step 2: Add your PostCSS config and install your PostCSS plugins

Add your PostCSS configuration to one of the supported config formats, e.g. package.json, .postcssrc, postcss.config.js, etc.

Step 3: Configure the react native packager

For React Native v0.57 or newer / Expo SDK v31.0.0 or newer

Add this to metro.config.js in your project's root (create the file if it does not exist already):

const { getDefaultConfig } = require("metro-config");

module.exports = (async () => {
  const {
    resolver: { sourceExts }
  } = await getDefaultConfig();
  return {
    transformer: {
      babelTransformerPath: require.resolve("./postcss-transformer.js")
    },
    resolver: {
      sourceExts: [...sourceExts, "css", "pcss"]
    }
  };
})();

If you are using Expo, you also need to add this to app.json:

{
  "expo": {
    "packagerOpts": {
      "config": "metro.config.js",
      "sourceExts": ["js", "jsx", "css", "pcss"]
    }
  }
}

For React Native v0.56 or older

If you are using React Native without Expo, add this to rn-cli.config.js in your project's root (create the file if you don't have one already):

module.exports = {
  getTransformModulePath() {
    return require.resolve("./postcss-transformer.js");
  },
  getSourceExts() {
    return ["js", "jsx", "css", "pcss"]; // <-- Add other extensions if needed.
  }
};

For Expo SDK v30.0.0 or older

If you are using Expo, instead of adding the rn-cli.config.js file, you need to add this to app.json:

{
  "expo": {
    "packagerOpts": {
      "sourceExts": ["js", "jsx", "css", "pcss"],
      "transformer": "./postcss-transformer.js"
    }
  }
}

Step 4: Add transformer file

Create postcss-transformer.js file to your project's root and specify supported extensions:

// For React Native version 0.73 or later
var upstreamTransformer = require("@react-native/metro-babel-transformer");

// For React Native version 0.59 or later
// var upstreamTransformer = require("metro-react-native-babel-transformer");

// For React Native version 0.56-0.58
// var upstreamTransformer = require("metro/src/reactNativeTransformer");

// For React Native version 0.52-0.55
// var upstreamTransformer = require("metro/src/transformer");

// For React Native version 0.47-0.51
// var upstreamTransformer = require("metro-bundler/src/transformer");

// For React Native version 0.46
// var upstreamTransformer = require("metro-bundler/build/transformer");

var postcssTransformer = require("react-native-postcss-transformer");
var postCSSExtensions = ["css", "pcss"]; // <-- Add other extensions if needed.

module.exports.transform = function ({ src, filename, options }) {
  if (postCSSExtensions.some((ext) => filename.endsWith("." + ext))) {
    return postcssTransformer.transform({ src, filename, options });
  }
  return upstreamTransformer.transform({ src, filename, options });
};

Dependencies

This library has the following Node.js modules as dependencies:

  • Find a way to make the configuration cleaner by only having to add metro.config.js to a project, https://github.com/kristerkari/react-native-postcss-transformer/issues/1.
