#React-style-marker

React-style-marker is trying to manage inline style on React elements in a different way.

With React-style-marker, inline style will be converted into variables and expressions and you can reuse these variables in the same rule in this system.

• bottom up and composable
• readable and reusable
• '+', '-', '*', '/', '=', '(', ')' instead of object operations

Installation

npm install react-style-marker

Usage

var Marker = require('react-style-marker');
var I = Marker.insert;
var T = Marker.trans;

Trans

Trans translates the react-style-marker string to react inline style object.

console.log(T("width(100)+height(100)+display('block'))")

The output is:

{ width: 100, height: 100, display: 'block' }


<div style={T("width(100)+height(100)+display('block')")} >
</div>

Which is equal to:

<div style={{width:100,height:100,display:block}} >
</div>

If it has an assign expression, the left side will be assigned value which is the result of the right side expression.

T("myDiv=display('block') + width(100) + height(100)")

Then you can simply use:

<div style={T('myDiv')}>
</div>

Trans returns the result of the first expression:

console.log(T("myDiv=display('block') + width(100) + height(100)"))
console.log(T("myDiv"));

The output is both:

{ display: 'block', width: 100, height: 100 }

Using ';' or '\n' to seperate Multiple expression:

T("myDiv1=display('block') + width(100) + height(100);myDiv2=myDiv1");

Insert

Parameters: alias, key, value, priority, state

I('myBg', 'background', 'grey');

Then you define style {myBg:background('grey')}

<div style={T('myBg')}>
</div>

You can also define style with state:

I('myBgHover, 'background', 'red', 1, 'hover');

Using '*' to achive composing style with states:

<button
    style={T("myBg*myBgHover", this.state.hover)}
    onMouseEnter={this.handleMouseEnter}
    onMouseLeave={this.handleMouseLeave} >
</button>

handleMouseEnter() {
  this.setState({
    hover: 'hover'
  });
},
handleMouseLeave() {
  this.setState({
    hover: null
  });
},

Examples with React

var Marker = require('react-style-marker');
var T = Marker.trans;

// you can use custom variable cm as the combination
// cm = Object.assign({}, {display:'absolute'}, {left:0} ...)

T("cm=display('absolute')+left(0)+right(0)+top(0)+bottom(0)+margin('auto auto auto auto')");

var Demo = React.createClass({
  render: function() {
    // Trans covert expression to react styles
    // And can use variables which you defined with Trans earlier(variable cm)
    return (
      <div>
        <div style={T("height(500)+relative+background('orange')")} >
          <div style={T("cm+width(50)+height(100)+background('green')")}>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    )
  }
});

React.render(<Demo />, document.getElementById('example'));

Stateful styles:

var Marker = require('react-style-marker');var I = Marker.insert;
var T = Marker.trans;

// Alias for a certain style
I('bg', 'background', 'grey');
I('bgHover', 'background', 'pink', 1, 'hover');

var Demo = React.createClass({
  getInitialState() {
    return {
      hover: null
    };
  },
  handleMouseEnter() {
    this.setState({
      hover: 'hover'
    });
  },
  handleMouseLeave() {
    this.setState({
      hover: null
    });
  },
  // '*' make multiple state combined in a single variable
  // Trans has an optional sencond paramter state
  // Which can filter style value with certain state
  render: function() {
    return (
     <div>
       <div onMouseEnter={this.handleMouseEnter} onMouseLeave={this.handleMouseLeave} style={T("width(100)+height(100)+bg*bgHover", this.state.hover)}>
       </div>
     </div>
    )
  }
});
React.render(<Demo />, document.getElementById('example'));
