This plugin can extract theme color styles from all the outputed css files (such as element-ui theme colors), and make a 'theme-colors.css' file which only contains color styles. At runtime in your web page, the client part will help you to download this css file, and then replace the colors into new customized colors dynamicly.

Install

npm i -D html_theme_color_change

Cofig for webpack

const ThemeColorReplacer = require('html_theme_color_change')

module.exports = {
    // ..... other config
    plugins: [
        new ThemeColorReplacer({
            matchColors: ['#ed4040', '#4b0', '255,80,80'], // colors array for extracting css file
            fileName: 'css/theme-colors-[contenthash:8].css', //optional. output css file name, suport [contenthash] and [hash].
            // resolveCss(resultCss) { // optional. Resolve result css code as you wish.
            //     return resultCss.replace(/#ccc/g, '#eee')
            // },
            externalCssFiles: ['./node_modules/element-ui/lib/theme-chalk/index.css'], // optional, String or string array. Set external css files (such as cdn css) to extract colors.
            // changeSelector(selector, util) { // optional, Funciton. Changing css selectors, in order to raise css priority, to resolve lazy-loading problems.
            //     return util.changeEach(selector, '.el-button--default')
            // },
            injectCss: false, // optional. Inject css text into js file, no need to download `theme-colors-xxx.css` any more.
            isJsUgly: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'development', // optional. Set to `true` if your js is uglified. Default is set by process.env.NODE_ENV.
        })
    ],
}

If you use customized runtime-chunk filename, it should contains a string manifest., like this:

optimization: {
  runtimeChunk: {
    name: entrypoint => 'manifest.' +  entrypoint.name,
  },
}

• Other build tool(not webpack)

Otherwise, if you use other build tool(like gulp) but not webpack, you can use this plugin by nodejs:

var nodeRun = require('html_theme_color_change/src/nodeRun');
var {code, outFile} = nodeRun({
    src: 'src/css/**/*.css', // source css files. string or string array, as `glob`.
    matchColors: ['#ed4040', '#4b0', '255,80,80'],
    fileName: 'css/theme-colors-[contenthash:8].css',
    // ...
})
// do sth with outFile

See this sample: https://github.com/hzsrc/webpack-theme-color-replacer/blob/master/src/nodeRun.js

Usage in your runtime web page

Like this:

import client from 'html_theme_color_change/client'

// change theme colors at runtime.
export function changeColor() {
  var options = {
    newColors: ['#f67a17', '#f67a17', '160,20,255'], // new colors array, one-to-one corresponde with `matchColors`
  }

  client.changer.changeColor(options, Promise).then(() => {
      console.log('Theme colors changed!')
  })
}

You can view this sample: https://github.com/hzsrc/vue-element-ui-scaffold-webpack4/blob/master/src/js/themeColorClient.js
