tlm-token-farm

The Liberation Machine - Token Farm

The Token Farm houses the exported tokens from the Figma design file and converts them into variables for our Stencil component library.

Structure

input contains the raw json output files from the Figma design file. src cointains the script which turns these files into usable variables, which are generated in dist.

Output types

The Token Farm can be configured to output various different file types, such as JavaScript, TypeScript, json, css and scss in build.ts. It can also create several output files for different themes.

Workflow

The update-tokens.yml workflow executes the Token Farm script whenever a commit is pushed to the main branch. Afterwards the Stencil component library is rebuilt with the new tokens and the Storybook is updated.

Using the tokens in the Stencil Library

To use the exported tokens, add the following line to a component:

import { tokenName } from '../../../token-farm/dist/js/global';

You can then reference the tokens using Emotion, a CSS-in-JS package.

import { css } from '@emotion/css';

const componentStyle = css`
  css-attribute: ${tokenName};
`;

...

export class TlmComponent {
  render() {
    return (
      <div class={componentStyle}></div>
    );
  }
}
