Original Docs below

postcss-zindex

Reduce z-index values with PostCSS.

Install

With npm do:

npm install postcss-zindex --save

Example

Sometimes, you may introduce z-index values into your CSS that are larger than necessary, in order to improve your understanding of how each stack relates to the others. For example, you might have a modal overlay at 5000 and the dialog for it at 5500 - so that modal classes occupy the 5xxx space.

But in production, it is unnecessary to use such large values for z-index where smaller values would suffice. This module will reduce all z-index declarations whilst respecting your original intent; such that the overlay becomes 1 and the dialog becomes 2. For more examples, see the tests.

Input

.modal {
    z-index: 5000
}

.modal-overlay {
    z-index: 5500
}

Output

.modal {
    z-index: 1
}

.modal-overlay {
    z-index: 2
}

Note that this module does not attempt to normalize relative z-index values, such as -1; indeed, it will abort immediately when encountering these values as it cannot be sure that rebasing mixed positive & negative values will keep the stacking context intact. Be careful with using this module alongside JavaScript injected CSS; ideally you should have already extracted all of your stacking context into CSS.

API

zindex([options])

options

startIndex

Type: number Default: 1

Set this to any other positive integer if you want to override z-indices from other sources outside your control. For example if a third party widget has a maximum z-index of 99, you can set this to 100 and not have to worry about stacking conflicts.

Usage

See the PostCSS documentation for examples for your environment.
