[PostCSS Dir Pseudo Class] lets you style by directionality using the `:dir()`
|
|||
|
pseudo-class in CSS, following the [Selectors] specification.

```pcss
|
|||
|
article h3:dir(rtl) {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
article h3:dir(ltr) {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/* becomes */
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[dir="rtl"] article h3 {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[dir="ltr"] article h3 {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Maintaining Specificity
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Using [PostCSS Dir Pseudo Class] will not impact selector weight, but it will
|
|||
|
require having at least one `[dir]` attribute in your HTML. If you don’t have
|
|||
|
_any_ `[dir]` attributes, consider using the following JavaScript:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
// force at least one dir attribute (this can run at any time)
|
|||
|
document.documentElement.dir=document.documentElement.dir||'ltr';
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you absolutely cannot add a `[dir]` attribute in your HTML or even force one
|
|||
|
via JavaScript, you can still work around this by presuming a direction in your
|
|||
|
CSS using the [`dir` option](#dir-option), but understand that this will
|
|||
|
sometimes increase selector weight by one element (`html`).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Usage
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Add [PostCSS Dir Pseudo Class] to your project:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```bash
|
|||
|
npm install postcss-dir-pseudo-class --save-dev
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Use [PostCSS Dir Pseudo Class] to process your CSS:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
const postcssDirPseudoClass = require('postcss-dir-pseudo-class');
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
postcssDirPseudoClass.process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions, pluginOptions */);
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Or use it as a [PostCSS] plugin:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
const postcss = require('postcss');
|
|||
|
const postcssDirPseudoClass = require('postcss-dir-pseudo-class');
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
postcss([
|
|||
|
postcssDirPseudoClass(/* pluginOptions */)
|
|||
|
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[PostCSS Dir Pseudo Class] runs in all Node environments, with special instructions for:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
| [Node](INSTALL.md#node) | [PostCSS CLI](INSTALL.md#postcss-cli) | [Webpack](INSTALL.md#webpack) | [Create React App](INSTALL.md#create-react-app) | [Gulp](INSTALL.md#gulp) | [Grunt](INSTALL.md#grunt) |

## Options
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### dir
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The `dir` option allows you presume a direction in your CSS. By default, this
|
|||
|
is not specified and you are required to include a direction `[dir]` attribute
|
|||
|
somewhere in your HTML, preferably on the `html` element.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Here’s an example of using the `dir` option to presume a left-to-right
|
|||
|
direction:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
postcssDirPseudoClass({ dir: 'ltr' });
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```pcss
|
|||
|
.example:dir(ltr) {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
.example:dir(rtl) {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/* becomes */
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
html:not([dir="rtl"]) .example {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[dir="rtl"] .example {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### preserve
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The `preserve` option determines whether the original `:dir()` rule should
|
|||
|
remain in the CSS. By default, the original rule is not preserved.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
postcssDirPseudoClass({ preserve: true });
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```pcss
|
|||
|
article h3:dir(rtl) {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
article h3:dir(ltr) {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/* becomes */
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[dir="rtl"] article h3 {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
article h3:dir(rtl) {
|
|||
|
margin-right: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[dir="ltr"] article h3 {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
article h3:dir(ltr) {
|
|||
|
margin-left: 10px;
|
|||
|
}
|
