Flora.CssParser

A CSS parser for .NET. Spec Module Level 3 https://www.w3.org/TR/css-syntax-3/

Flora.CssProvider

A type provider for consumption in both .NET and Fable runtimes to provide class names found in css style sheets. And themeing support via auto injecting css varibles.

Css Classes

The default naming scheme is exact.

type Tailwind = Flora.Stylesheet<"../tailwind.css">

let view model dispatch =
  div [ Class Tailwind.``bg-green-darkest``]
      [ str "hello world" ]

The original naming scheme now called DirectedGraph will nest deeper by putting global classes in an any directory. Ex. Tailwind.Any.``hover:capitalize`` Element specific classes are placed in corrsponding directories. Ex. Tailwind.div.``hover:capitalize`` Can parse any css without name overloading issues.

type Tailwind = Flora.Stylesheet<"../tailwind.css", naming = NamingMode.DirectedGraph>

let view model dispatch =
  div [ Class Tailwind.Any.``bg-green-darkest``]
      [ str "hello world" ]

Css Variables

When using the type provider with fable, the type provider will create mutable properties that will read and set css varibles to the root document. Behind the curtain it calls document.documentElement.style.setProperty(...) and window.getComputedStyle(document.documentElement).getPropertyValue(...) and does not try to pull the value out of the css document its self.

type VariableTest = Flora.Stylesheet<"../variabletest.css">

type Msg =
| ChangeColor

let update (msg:Msg) (model:Model) =
    match msg with
    | ChangeColor -> VariableTest.Variables.``main-bg-color`` <- "blue"; model //Set Css Variable found in in variabletest.css

let view (model:Model) dispatch =
  button [ OnClick (fun _ -> dispatch ChangeColor) ; Class Tailwind.Any.``hover:capitalize`` ] 
         [ str ("ChangeColor: " +  VariableTest.Variables.``main-bg-color``) ] //Retrive Css Variable set in document element.
