Avanzado
This section covers more advanced usage of @material-ui/core/styles.
Temática
Add a ThemeProvider
to the top level of your app to pass a theme down the React component tree. Then, you can access the theme object in style functions.
Este ejemplo crea un objeto de tema para componentes construidos a medida. Si pretende utilizar algunos de los componentes de Material-UI, necesita proporcionar una estructura de tema más rica utilizando el método
createMuiTheme()
. Dirígete a la sección temática para aprender cómo construir tu tema personalizado de Material-UI.
import { ThemeProvider } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import DeepChild from './my_components/DeepChild';
const theme = {
background: 'linear-gradient(45deg, #FE6B8B 30%, #FF8E53 90%)',
};
function Theming() {
return (
<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
<DeepChild />
</ThemeProvider>
);
}
<ThemeProvider theme={themeInstance}>
<DeepChild />
</ThemeProvider>
Accediendo al tema en un componente
You might need to access the theme variables inside your React components.
useTheme
hook
For use in function components:
import { useTheme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
function DeepChild() {
const theme = useTheme();
return <span>{`spacing ${theme.spacing}`}</span>;
}
<ThemeProvider
theme={{
spacing: '8px',
}}
>
<DeepChild />
</ThemeProvider>
withTheme
HOC
For use in class or function components:
import { withTheme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
function DeepChildRaw(props) {
return <span>{`spacing ${props.theme.spacing}`}</span>;
}
const DeepChild = withTheme(DeepChildRaw);
Theme nesting
Usted puedes anidar multiples proveedores de tema. This can be really useful when dealing with different areas of your application that have distinct appearance from each other.
<ThemeProvider theme={outerTheme}>
<Child1 />
<ThemeProvider theme={innerTheme}>
<Child2 />
</ThemeProvider>
</ThemeProvider>
El tema interno sobrescribirá el tema exterior. Puede ampliar el tema externo proporcionando una función:
<ThemeProvider theme={…} <ThemeProvider theme={…} >
<Child1 />
<ThemeProvider theme={outerTheme => ({ darkMode: true, ...outerTheme })}>
<Child2 />
</ThemeProvider>
</ThemeProvider>
Overriding styles - classes
prop
The makeStyles
(hook generator) and withStyles
(HOC) APIs allow the creation of multiple style rules per style sheet. Each style rule has its own class name. The class names are provided to the component with the classes
variable. This is particularly useful when styling nested elements in a component.
// A style sheet
const useStyles = makeStyles({
root: {}, // a style rule
label: {}, // a nested style rule
});
function Nested(props) {
const classes = useStyles();
return (
<button className={classes.root}> // 'jss1'
<span className={classes.label}> // 'jss2'
nested
</span>
</button>
);
}
function Parent() {
return <Nested />
}
However, the class names are often non-deterministic. How can a parent component override the style of a nested element?
withStyles
This is the simplest case. the wrapped component accepts a classes
prop, it simply merges the class names provided with the style sheet.
const Nested = withStyles({
root: {}, // a style rule
label: {}, // a nested style rule
})(({ classes }) => (
<button className={classes.root}>
<span className={classes.label}> // 'jss2 my-label'
Nested
</span>
</button>
));
function Parent() {
return <Nested classes={{ label: 'my-label' }} />
}
makeStyles
The hook API requires a bit more work. You have to forward the parent props to the hook as a first argument.
const useStyles = makeStyles({
root: {}, // a style rule
label: {}, // a nested style rule
});
function Nested(props) {
const classes = useStyles(props);
return (
<button className={classes.root}>
<span className={classes.label}> // 'jss2 my-label'
nested
</span>
</button>
);
}
function Parent() {
return <Nested classes={{ label: 'my-label' }} />
}
JSS plugins
JSS uses plugins to extend its core, allowing you to cherry-pick the features you need, and only pay the performance overhead for what you are using.
Not all the plugins are available in Material-UI by default. The following (which is a subset of jss-preset-default) are included:
- jss-plugin-rule-value-function
- jss-plugin-global
- jss-plugin-nested
- jss-plugin-camel-case
- jss-plugin-default-unit
- jss-plugin-vendor-prefixer
- jss-plugin-props-sort
Of course, you are free to use additional plugins. Here is an example with the jss-rtl plugin.
import { create } from 'jss';
import { StylesProvider, jssPreset } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import rtl from 'jss-rtl'
const jss = create({
plugins: [...jssPreset().plugins, rtl()],
});
export default function App() {
return (
<StylesProvider jss={jss}>
... </StylesProvider>
);
}
String templates
If you prefer CSS syntax over JSS, you can use the jss-plugin-template plugin.
const useStyles = makeStyles({
root: `
background: linear-gradient(45deg, #fe6b8b 30%, #ff8e53 90%);
border-radius: 3px;
font-size: 16px;
border: 0;
color: white;
height: 48px;
padding: 0 30px;
box-shadow: 0 3px 5px 2px rgba(255, 105, 135, 0.3);
`,
});
Note that this doesn't support selectors, or nested rules.
CSS injection order
It's really important to understand how the CSS specificity is calculated by the browser, as it's one of the key elements to know when overriding styles. You are encouraged to read this MDN paragraph: How is specificity calculated?
By default, the style tags are injected last in the <head>
element of the page. They gain more specificity than any other style tags on your page e.g. CSS modules, styled components.
injectFirst
The StylesProvider
component has an injectFirst
prop to inject the style tags first in the head (less priority):
import { StylesProvider } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
<StylesProvider injectFirst>
{/* Your component tree.
*/}
</StylesProvider>
import { StylesProvider } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
<StylesProvider injectFirst>
{/* Your component tree. */}
</StylesProvider>
Now, you can override Material-UI's styles.
makeStyles
/ withStyles
/ styled
The injection of style tags happens in the same order as the makeStyles
/ withStyles
/ styled
invocations. For instance the color red wins in this case:
import clsx from 'clsx';
import { makeStyles } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
const useStylesBase = makeStyles({
root: {
color: 'blue', // 🔵
},
});
const useStyles = makeStyles({
root: {
color: 'red', // 🔴
},
});
export default function MyComponent() {
// Order doesn't matter
const classes = useStyles();
const classesBase = useStylesBase();
// Order doesn't matter
const className = clsx(classes.root, classesBase.root)
// color: red 🔴 wins.
However, the class names are often non-deterministic.
The hook call order and the class name concatenation order don't matter.
insertionPoint
JSS provides a mechanism to control this situation. By adding an insertionPoint
within the HTML you can control the order that the CSS rules are applied to your components.
HTML comment
The simplest approach is to add an HTML comment to the <head>
that determines where JSS will inject the styles:
<head>
<noscript id="jss-insertion-point" />
<link href="..." />
</head>
import { create } from 'jss';
import { StylesProvider, jssPreset } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
const jss = create({
...jssPreset(),
// Define a custom insertion point that JSS will look for when injecting the styles into the DOM.
insertionPoint: 'jss-insertion-point',
});
export default function App() {
return <StylesProvider jss={jss}>...</StylesProvider>;
}
Other HTML elements
Create React App strips HTML comments when creating the production build. To get around this issue, you can provide a DOM element (other than a comment) as the JSS insertion point, for example, a <noscript>
element:
<head>
<!-- jss-insertion-point -->
<link href="...">
</head> />
</head>
import { create } from 'jss';
import { StylesProvider, jssPreset } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
const jss = create({
...jssPreset(),
// Define a custom insertion point that JSS will look for when injecting the styles into the DOM.
insertionPoint: 'jss-insertion-point',
});
export default function App() {
return <StylesProvider jss={jss}>...</StylesProvider>;
}
JS createComment
codesandbox.io prevents access to the <head>
element. To get around this issue, you can use the JavaScript document.createComment()
API:
import { create } from 'jss';
import { StylesProvider, jssPreset } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import rtl from 'jss-rtl'
const jss = create({
plugins: [...jssPreset().plugins, rtl()],
});
export default function App() {
return (
<StylesProvider jss={jss}>
...
insertionPoint: 'jss-insertion-point',
});
export default function App() {
return <StylesProvider jss={jss}>...</StylesProvider>;
}
Server-side rendering
This example returns a string of HTML and inlines the critical CSS required, right before it’s used:
import ReactDOMServer from 'react-dom/server';
import { ServerStyleSheets } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
function render() {
const sheets = new ServerStyleSheets();
const html = ReactDOMServer.renderToString(sheets.collect(<App />));
const css = sheets.toString();
return `
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style id="jss-server-side">${css}</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="root">${html}</div>
</body>
</html>
`;
}
You can follow the server side guide for a more detailed example, or read the ServerStyleSheets
API documentation.
Gatsby
There is an official Gatsby plugin that enables server-side rendering for @material-ui/styles
. Refer to the plugin's page for setup and usage instructions.
Refer to this example Gatsby project for an up-to-date usage example.
Next.js
You need to have a custom pages/_document.js
, then copy this logic to inject the server-side rendered styles into the <head>
element.
Refer to this example project for an up-to-date usage example.
Class names
The class names are generated by the class name generator.
Por defecto
By default, the class names generated by @material-ui/core/styles
are non-deterministic; you can't rely on them to stay the same. Let's take the following style as an example:
const useStyles = makeStyles({
root: {
opacity: 1,
},
});
This will generate a class name such as makeStyles-root-123
.
You have to use the classes
prop of a component to override the styles. The non-deterministic nature of the class names enables style isolation.
- In development, the class name is:
.makeStyles-root-123
, following this logic:
const sheetName = 'makeStyles';
const ruleName = 'root';
const identifier = 123;
const className = `${sheetName}-${ruleName}-${identifier}`;
- In production, the class name is:
.jss123
, following this logic:
const productionPrefix = 'jss';
const identifier = 123;
const className = `${productionPrefix}-${identifier}`;
With @material-ui/core
The generated class names of the @material-ui/core
components behave differently. When the following conditions are met, the class names are deterministic:
- Only one theme provider is used (No theme nesting)
- The style sheet has a name that starts with
Mui
(all Material-UI components). - The
disableGlobal
option of the class name generator isfalse
(the default).
These conditions are met with the most common use cases of @material-ui/core
. For instance, this style sheet:
const useStyles = makeStyles({
root: { /* … */ },
label: { /* … */ },
outlined: {
/* … */
'&$disabled': { /* … */ },
},
outlinedPrimary: {
/* … */
'&:hover': { /* … */ },
},
disabled: {},
}, { name: 'MuiButton' });
generates the following class names that you can override:
.MuiButton-root { /* … */ }
.MuiButton-label { /* … */ }
.MuiButton-outlined { /* … */ }
.MuiButton-outlined.Mui-disabled { /* … */ }
.MuiButton-outlinedPrimary: { /* … */ }
.MuiButton-outlinedPrimary:hover { /* … */
}
This is a simplification of the @material-ui/core/Button
component's style sheet.
Customization of the TextField can be cumbersome with the classes
API, where you have to define the the classes prop. It's easier to use the default values, as described above. For example:
import styled from 'styled-components';
import { TextField } from '@material-ui/core';
const StyledTextField = styled(TextField)`
label.focused {
color: green; 💚
}
.MuiOutlinedInput-root {
fieldset {
border-color: red; 💔
}
&:hover fieldset {
border-color: yellow; 💛
}
&.Mui-focused fieldset {
border-color: green; 💚
}
}
`;
<NoSsr>
<StyledTextField
label="Deterministic"
variant="outlined"
id="deterministic-outlined-input"
/>
</NoSsr>
Global CSS
jss-plugin-global
The jss-plugin-global
plugin is installed in the default preset. You can use it to define global class names.
<div className="cssjss-advanced-global-child" />
<div className="child" />
CSS prefixes
JSS uses feature detection to apply the correct prefixes. Don't be surprised if you can't see a specific prefix in the latest version of Chrome. Your browser probably doesn't need it.
