# postcss-prefix-selector [![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Test coverage][coveralls-image]][coveralls-url] [![License][license-image]][license-url] [![Downloads][downloads-image]][downloads-url] [![Gitpod ready-to-code][gitpod-image]][gitpod-url] > Prefix every CSS selector with a custom namespace `.a => .prefix .a` ## Table of Contents - [Install](#install) - [Usage with PostCSS](#usage-with-postcss) - [Usage with Webpack](#usage-with-webpack) - [Usage with Vite](#usage-with-vite) - [Options](#options) - [Maintainer](#maintainer) - [Contribute](#contribute) - [License](#license) ## Install ```console $ npm install postcss-prefix-selector ``` ## Usage with PostCSS ```js const prefixer = require('postcss-prefix-selector') // css to be processed const css = fs.readFileSync("input.css", "utf8") const out = postcss().use(prefixer({ prefix: '.some-selector', exclude: ['.c'], // Optional transform callback for case-by-case overrides transform: function (prefix, selector, prefixedSelector, filePath, rule) { if (selector === 'body') { return 'body' + prefix; } else { return prefixedSelector; } } })).process(css).css ``` Using the options above and the CSS below... ```css body { background: red; } .a, .b { color: aqua; } .c { color: coral; } ``` You will get the following output ```css body.some-selector { background: red; } .some-selector .a, .some-selector .b { color: aqua; } .c { color: coral; } ``` ## Usage with webpack Use it like you'd use any other PostCSS plugin. If you also have `autoprefixer` in your webpack config then make sure that `postcss-prefix-selector` is called first. This is needed to avoid running the prefixer twice on both standard selectors and vendor specific ones (ex: `@keyframes` and `@webkit-keyframes`). ```js module: { rules: [{ test: /\.css$/, use: [ require.resolve('style-loader'), require.resolve('css-loader'), { loader: require.resolve('postcss-loader'), options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: { "postcss-prefix-selector": { prefix: '.my-prefix', transform(prefix, selector, prefixedSelector, filePath, rule) { if (selector.match(/^(html|body)/)) { return selector.replace(/^([^\s]*)/, `$1 ${prefix}`); } if (filePath.match(/node_modules/)) { return selector; // Do not prefix styles imported from node_modules } const annotation = rule.prev(); if (annotation?.type === 'comment' && annotation.text.trim() === 'no-prefix') { return selector; // Do not prefix style rules that are preceded by: /* no-prefix */ } return prefixedSelector; }, }, autoprefixer: { browsers: ['last 4 versions'] } } } } } ] }] } ``` ## Usage with Vite Following the same way of Webpack but for Vite: ```js import prefixer from 'postcss-prefix-selector'; import autoprefixer from 'autoprefixer'; ... export default defineConfig({ ... css: { postcss: { plugins: [ prefixer({ prefix: '.my-prefix', transform(prefix, selector, prefixedSelector, filePath, rule) { if (selector.match(/^(html|body)/)) { return selector.replace(/^([^\s]*)/, `$1 ${prefix}`); } if (filePath.match(/node_modules/)) { return selector; // Do not prefix styles imported from node_modules } const annotation = rule.prev(); if (annotation?.type === 'comment' && annotation.text.trim() === 'no-prefix') { return selector; // Do not prefix style rules that are preceded by: /* no-prefix */ } return prefixedSelector; }, }), autoprefixer({}) // add options if needed ], } }, ... }); ``` ## Options | Name | Type | Description | |-|-|-| | `prefix` | `string` | This string is added before every CSS selector | | `exclude` | `string[]` or `RegExp[]` | It's possible to avoid prefixing some selectors by passing an array of selectors | | `transform` | `Function` | In cases where you may want to use the prefix differently for different selectors, it is possible to pass in a custom transform method | | `ignoreFiles` | `string[]` or `RegExp[]` | List of ignored files for processing | | `includeFiles` | `string[]` or `RegExp[]` | List of included files for processing | ## Maintainer This project was originally created by [@jongleberry](https://github.com/jonathanong) and is being maintained by [@RadValentin](https://github.com/RadValentin).
