@glitz/length-transformer

Transforms numeric values from properties like height and left to a length with unit.

import { GlitzClient } from '@glitz/core';
import numberToLength from '@glitz/length-transformer';
const glitz = new GlitzClient({ transformer: numberToLength });

const className = glitz.injectStyle({
  height: 10,
  width: [100, 'max-content'],
  // Will be transformed into:
  // {
  //   height: '10px',
  //   width: ['100px', 'max-content'],
  // }
});

The default length unit is px for length safe properties. You can create a new transformer using createNumberToLengthTransformer(options) with the defaultUnit option if you prefer another unit or override units for any other property.

Numeric time value for animationDelay, animationDuration, transitionDelay and transitionDuration are also supported and has ms as default unit.

Getting started

$ npm install @glitz/length-transformer

Options

options.defaultUnit

defaultUnit: string;

Default: "px"

Unit used for length safe properties (that doesn't accept number and length the same time like lineHeight).

import { GlitzClient } from '@glitz/core';
import { createNumberToLengthTransformer } from '@glitz/length-transformer';
const glitz = new GlitzClient({ transformer: createNumberToLengthTransformer({ defaultUnit: 'rem' }) });

const className = glitz.injectStyle({
  height: 10,
  width: [100, 'max-content'],
  // Will be transformed into:
  // {
  //   height: '10rem',
  //   width: ['100rem', 'max-content'],
  // }
});

options.[cssProperty]

[cssProperty]: string;

Default: undefined

Override any CSS property with unit. Works with properties that excepts both number and length.

import { GlitzClient } from '@glitz/core';
import { createNumberToLengthTransformer } from '@glitz/length-transformer';
const glitz = new GlitzClient({
  transformer: createNumberToLengthTransformer({ lineHeight: 'em', fontSize: 'rem' }),
});

const className = glitz.injectStyle({
  paddingLeft: 10,
  lineHeight: 2,
  fontSize: 1.5,
  // Will be transformed into:
  // {
  //   paddingLeft: '10px',
  //   lineHeight: '2em',
  //   fontSize: '1.5rem',
  // }
});

Safe properties

The default length unit will only transform a specific set of properties because some properties e.g. lineHeight accepts both length and numbers. Here's the full list of length safe properties it will transform:

• bottom
• flexBasis
• fontSize
• height
• left
• marginBottom
• marginLeft
• marginRight
• marginTop
• maxHeight
• maxWidth
• minHeight
• minWidth
• paddingBottom
• paddingLeft
• paddingRight
• paddingTop
• right
• top
• width

For these, 'ms' is used as unit instead:

• animationDelay
• animationDuration
• transitionDelay
• transitionDuration

Shorthand objects like margin: { left: 10 } will be resolved to marginLeft: 10 before reaching the transformer, so these values will be transformed as well.

Less common properties, but still included: background, backgroundPosition, backgroundPositionX, backgroundPositionY, backgroundSize, blockSize, border, borderBlockEnd, borderBlockEndWidth, borderBlockStart, borderBlockStartWidth, borderBottom, borderBottomLeftRadius, borderBottomRightRadius, borderBottomWidth, borderInlineEnd, borderInlineEndWidth, borderInlineStart, borderInlineStartWidth, borderLeft, borderLeftWidth, borderRadius, borderRight, borderRightWidth, borderSpacing, borderTop, borderTopLeftRadius, borderTopRightRadius, borderTopWidth, borderWidth, boxShadow, columnGap, columnRule, columnRuleWidth, columnWidth, gridAutoColumns, gridAutoRows, gridColumnGap, gridGap, gridRowGap, gridTemplateColumns, gridTemplateRows, inlineSize, letterSpacing, lineHeightStep, margin, marginBlockEnd, marginBlockStart, marginInlineEnd, marginInlineStart, mask, maskPosition, maskSize, maxBlockSize, maxInlineSize, minBlockSize, minInlineSize, offset, offsetBlockEnd, offsetBlockStart, offsetDistance, offsetInlineEnd, offsetInlineStart, offsetPosition, outline, outlineOffset, outlineWidth, padding, paddingBlockEnd, paddingBlockStart, paddingInlineEnd, paddingInlineStart, perspective, perspectiveOrigin, scrollSnapCoordinate, scrollSnapDestination, shapeMargin, textIndent, textShadow, transformOrigin, verticalAlign and wordSpacing.
