React Theme Switcher

This is a simple theme switcher for React. It uses the Context API to provide a theme to the entire application.

Installation

npm install mantra-theme-switcher

Usage main.tsx

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client';
import { ThemeProvider } from 'mantra-theme-switcher';
import App from './App';

// ThemeContextSettings is optional
// These are the default settings
const ThemeContextSettings = {
  initialState: "light",
  matchDevicePreference: "initialy"
  savePreference: true,
}

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root') as HTMLElement).render(
	<React.StrictMode>
		<ThemeContextProvider settings={ThemeContextSettings}>
				<App />
			</Provider>
	</React.StrictMode>
);

Usage SomeComponent.tsx

import React from 'react';
import { useTheme } from 'mantra-theme-switcher';

const SomeComponent = () => {
	const { theme, toggleTheme, isDark, isLight } = useTheme();

	return (
		<div>
			<h1>Current theme: {theme}</h1>
			<button onClick={() => toggleTheme('light')}>Set theme to light</button>
			<button onClick={() => toggleTheme('dark')}>Set theme to dark</button>
			{isDark ? <p>Help it's dark in here!</p> : <p>Actually it's light!</p>}
		</div>
	);
};
