AngularJS Material Custom Theme loader for webpack

Adds your AngularJS Material custom theme css into your webpack Javascript Bundle.

ng-md-theme-loader does not minify or process your css at all, and instead uses standard loaders such as sass-loader. This gives you enough flexibility to pick and choose your loaders.

Install

npm install ng-md-theme-loader --save-dev

Usage

Documentation: Using loaders

Documentation: ng-material's theme implementation

ng-md-theme-loader creates a JS module that registers MD CSS template with $mdThemingProvider e.g.

require('!ng-md-theme-loader!file.theme.css');

generates the javascript:

angular.module('ngMaterial').run(['$mdThemingProvider', function(c) { c.registerStyles('content of the ?.theme.css file') }]);

module

By default ng-md-theme-loader adds a run method to the global 'ngMaterial' module which should be explicitly required by your app for using Angular Material. You can override this by setting the module parameter, e.g.

require('!ng-md-theme-loader?module=myApp!file.theme.css');

generates the javascript:

angular.module('myApp').run(['$mdThemingProvider', function(c) { c.registerStyles('content of the ?.theme.css file') }]);

NOTE: specified module should be preliminary defined in your application

Parameter Interpolation

module parameter is interpolated using Webpack's standard interpolation rules.

Using with npm requires

This module relies on angular being available on window object. However, in cases angular is connected from node_modules via require('angular'), option to force this module to get the angular should be used:

require('!ng-md-theme-loader?requireAngular!file.theme.css');

generates the javascript:

var angular = require('angular');
angular.module('ngMaterial').run(['$mdThemingProvider', function(c) { c.registerStyles('content of the ?.theme.css file') }]);

Webpack Config

It's recommended to adjust your webpack.config so ng-md-theme-loader is applied automatically on all files ending with e.g. .theme.css. For Webpack 1 this would be something like:

module.exports = {
  module: {
    loaders: [
      {
        test: /\.theme\.css$/,
        loader: 'ng-md-theme'
      },
      {
        test: /\.theme\.scss$/,
        loader: 'ng-md-theme!sass'
      }
      // other loaders...
    ]
  }
};

For Webpack 2 this would be something like:

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.theme\.css$/,
        use: [
          { loader: 'ng-md-theme-loader'},
        ]
      },
      {
        test: /\.theme\.scss$/,
        use: [
          { loader: 'ng-md-theme-loader'},
          { loader: 'sass-loader' }
        ]
      }
      // other loaders...
    ]
  }
};

Make sure you already have sass-loader installed. Then you only need to write: require('file.theme.css').
