Be Classy (v1.3.0)

A super lightweight (312 bytes minified!) Javascript utlity library for conditionally mapping CSS class names. It was created to assist in use of the excellent TailwindCSS CSS package but can easily be used without!

Enough talk, show me the code

import { beClassy } from "be-classy";

const useClasses = beClassy(({ hovered }) => {
    return {
        button: {
            "button": true,
            "background--white": !hovered,
            "background--blue": hovered
        }
    }
});


const classes = useClasses({ hovered: true });
console.log(classes.button) // => "button background--white"
const classes = useClasses({ hovered: false });
console.log(classes.button) // => "button background--blue"

Installation

npm install be-classy

or

yarn add be-classy

Typescript support

Be Classy comes with Typescript support out of the box and hopefully the typings are tight enough.

Here is a Typescript example:

import { beClassy, ClassyIdentityKeys, ClassyClasses } from "be-classy";


/**
 *  Properties you want to pass to beClassy decorated function
 **/
type Props = {
    hovered: boolean;
}

/**
 * These are the root elements, I like to treat these like a modular style component that could
 * be applied to one, or many elements
 **/
interface Roots extends ClassyIdentityKeys {
  root: ClassyClasses;
  button: ClassyClasses;
}

/**
 * Props and the root structure are strictly typed, so we know what is being
 * passed in and what the function returned object should look like
 **/
const useClasses = beClassy<Props, Roots>(({ hovered }) => {
    return {
        button: {
            "button": true,
            "background--white": !hovered,
            "background--blue": hovered
        }
    }
});

const classes = useClasses({ hovered: true });
console.log(classes.button) // => "button background--white"
const classes = useClasses({ hovered: false });
console.log(classes.button) // => "button background--blue"
