Aphrodite global styles (aphrodite-globals)

A library for injecting global-scope styles using Aphrodite.

Aphrodite helps you write component styles using css-in-js techniques. However, the core library doesn't let you write global styles needed for things like a CSS reset or to work with an existing CSS library.

Using an extension to Aphrodite, this module lets you easily write global styles in a way that works with Aphrodite tooling (for example, styles rendered with this tool will correctly work with Aphrodite's server-side rendering).

Install with npm:

npm install aphrodite-globals

Usage

To use, call the exported injectGlobalStyles function with an object specification of your CSS. All features in core Aphrodite are supported, like pseudo-styles and media queries.

import {injectGlobalStyles} from "aphrodite-globals";

injectGlobalStyles({
    "*": {
        boxSizing: "border-box",
    },

    "a": {
        ":hover": {
            textDecoration: "none",
        },
    },
});

// generated CSS
* {
    box-sizing: border-box !important;
}

a:hover {
    text-decoration: none !important;
}

API

• injectGlobalStyles

  This function will generate styles for the passed in object of styles. Each of the keys of the passed in object will be used as a global selector in the generated styles. All of the features of Aphrodite's nested object styling are supported, like pseudo-styles and media queries.

• "aphrodite-globals/no-important"

  By default, all of the generated styles are marked as !important to ensure that other styles on the page don't conflict with them. If this behaviour is not needed, "aphrodite-globals/no-important" can be imported instead of "aphrodite-globals" and no !importants will be added. This version exports the same API as the default version.
