parse-css-stylesheet

Parse a string of text as a CSS stylesheet with JavaScript in the browser environment

about

When working in the browser environment strings containing HTML can be parsed into DOM using the DOMParser() interface, but no equivalent interface exists for parsing a string containing CSS text parsed into a CSSStyleSheet object. That's what this module provides, and it only works in the browser environment.

usage

This software is distributed as an ES module and should work in all modern browsers (including Chrome/Safari/Edge/Firefox).

import parseStylesheet from 'https://unpkg.com/parse-css-stylesheet/index.js'

// Log the parsed CSSStyleSheet object to the console
console.log(
  parseStylesheet(`
    :root { background-color: lime }
    body { background-color: hotpink }
  `)
)
