PostCSS Hover Media Feature
PostCSS plugin that extracts and wraps
rules containing :hover pseudo-classes in @media (hover: hover) {} media
queries.
Certain mobile browsers apply :hover styles on 'tap', which (in most cases)
isn't desirable. By wrapping :hover styles with a
Hover Media Feature
Media Query these styles will only be applied on devices that support them.

Check your project for an existing PostCSS config: postcss.config.js in the
project root, "postcss" section in package.json or postcss in bundle
config.
If you already use PostCSS, add the plugin to plugins list:
// postcss.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [

require('autoprefixer')
]
}If you do not use PostCSS, add it according to official docs and set this plugin in settings.
Options
fallback
Type: Boolean Default: false
The fallback option provides a way to extend this functionality to browsers
that don't themselves support the Hover Media Feature. It prefixes rules whose
selectors contain the :hover pseudo-selector – only when this selector is also
matched will the hover styles apply.
// postcss.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
require('postcss-hover-media-feature')({
fallback: true
})
]
}.foo:hover {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
/* becomes */
html:not(.supports-touch) .foo:hover {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
@media (hover: hover) {
.foo:hover {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
}fallbackSelector
Type: String Default: html:not(.supports-touch)
Only relevant when fallback: true.
Specifies the selector that is prepended with a descendent combinator to
selectors containing :hover pseudo-class.
// postcss.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
require('postcss-hover-media-feature')({
fallback: true,
fallbackSelector: '.supports-hover'
})
]
}.foo:hover {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
/* becomes */
.supports-hover .foo:hover {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
@media (hover: hover) {
.foo:hover {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
}rootSelectors
Type: Array[String] Default: []
Only relevant when fallback: true.
Accepts an array of selectors that match the :root element (i.e. <html>) so
that fallbackSelector is chained rather than prepended with descendent
combinator.
// postcss.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
require('postcss-hover-media-feature')({
fallback: true,
rootSelectors: ['.t-dark']
})
]
}.t-dark .foo:hover {
color: white;
}
/* becomes */
html:not(.supports-touch).t-dark .foo:hover {
color: white;
}
@media (hover: hover) {
.t-dark .foo:hover {
color: blue;
}
}
