A plugin for Stylis that generates rem units from pixel units.
This is a port of the fantastic postcss-pxtorem by cuth to stylis.
Install
$ yarn add --dev stylis-pxtorem
Usage
Pixels are the easiest unit to use (opinion). The only issue with them is that they don't let browsers change the default font size of 16. This script converts every px value to a rem from the properties you choose to allow the browser to set the font size.
Input/Output
With the default settings, only font related properties are targeted.
// input
h1 {
margin: 0 0 20px;
font-size: 32px;
line-height: 1.2;
letter-spacing: 1px;
}
// output
h1 {
margin: 0 0 20px;
font-size: 2rem;
line-height: 1.2;
letter-spacing: 0.0625rem;
}
options
Type: Object | Null
Default:
{
rootValue: 16,
unitPrecision: 5,
propList: ['font', 'font-size', 'line-height', 'letter-spacing'],
selectorBlackList: [],
replace: true,
mediaQuery: false,
minPixelValue: 0
}
rootValue
(Number) The root element font size.unitPrecision
(Number) The decimal numbers to allow the REM units to grow to.propList
(Array) The properties that can change from px to rem.- Values need to be exact matches.
- Use wildcard
*
to enable all properties. Example:['*']
- Use
*
at the start or end of a word. (['*position*']
will matchbackground-position-y
) - Use
!
to not match a property. Example:['*', '!letter-spacing']
- Combine the "not" prefix with the other prefixes. Example:
['*', '!font*']
selectorBlackList
(Array) The selectors to ignore and leave as px.- If value is string, it checks to see if selector contains the string.
['body']
will match.body-class
- If value is regexp, it checks to see if the selector matches the regexp.
[/^body$/]
will matchbody
but not.body
- If value is string, it checks to see if selector contains the string.
replace
(Boolean) replaces rules containing rems instead of adding fallbacks.mediaQuery
(Boolean) Allow px to be converted in media queries.minPixelValue
(Number) Set the minimum pixel value to replace.
A message about ignoring properties
Currently, the easiest way to have a single property ignored is to use a capital in the pixel unit declaration.
// `px` is converted to `rem`
.convert {
font-size: 16px; // converted to 1rem
}
// `Px` or `PX` is ignored by `postcss-pxtorem` but still accepted by browsers
.ignore {
border: 1Px solid; // ignored
border-width: 2PX; // ignored
}
