JSS

A simple JavaScript library for retrieving and setting CSS stylesheet rules.

Tiny - only 4KB minified
No dependencies
MIT Licensed
Supports FF, Chrome, Safari, Opera, and IE9+

Why generate CSS with JavaScript?

To set styles that need to be calculated or retrieved
To set behavioural styles for your widget or plugin so that consumers aren't forced to include a stylesheet for core functionality
To dynamically apply styles without cluttering your HTML (as is the case with inline styles)
To set styles on all current and future elements

Usage

Download and include jss.js (or the minified file) in your HTML:

<script type="text/javascript" src="jss.js"></script>

If your project uses Bower for package management you can run the following command instead:

bower install jss

jss.set(selector, properties) to add a new rule or extend an existing rule:

jss.set('.demo', {
    'font-size': '15px',
    'color': 'red'
});

jss.get([selector]) to retrieve rules added via JSS:

jss.get('.demo');
// returns the following:
{
    'font-size': '15px',
    'color': 'red'
}

jss.get();
// returns the following:
{
    '.demo': {
        'font-size': '15px',
        'color': 'red'
    }
}

jss.getAll(selector) to retrieve all rules that are specified using the selector (not necessarily added via JSS):

jss.getAll('.demo');
// returns the following:
{
    'font-size': '15px',
    'color': 'red',
    'font-weight': 'bold'
}

jss.remove([selector]) to remove rules added via JSS:

jss.remove('.demo'); // removes all JSS styles matching the selector
jss.remove();        // removes all JSS styles
