Themes

This repository is for the application themes and tools used across the Hundred Rabbits Ecosystem.

Setup

Install Theme support by adding theme.js to your header.

<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/lib/theme.js"></script>

Define Theme overrides in a dedicated theme.css by adding this line to your header.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="links/theme.css"/>

Initiate Theme support by adding these lines somewhere in your project. The .install(element) method takes an element to append the <style> tag to.

const theme = new Theme();
theme.install(document.body);
theme.start();

Trigger a function once a new theme has been loaded:

theme.onLoad = callback

The callback will fire when a new theme has loaded, perfect to connect a refresh method and update your application with the new colors.

Format Specs

The Theme format holds 9 different colors, including 4 foreground colors, 4 background colors, and a global background color. Each foreground color should be readable on every background color, with the exception of the inv types, which are designed to be used in warnings or modals and should only overlap each other.

A variable's contrast should be seen as an offset to the global background color, so instance, f_high represents a high contrast color against the global background, and so does b_high, representing a highly contrasted color against the global background.

You can test your themes online with the Theme Benchmark.

background, Application Background.
f_high, Foreground, high-contrast.
f_med, Foreground, medium-contrast.
f_low, Foreground, low-contrast.
f_inv, Foreground, for modals and overlays.
b_high, Background, high-contrast.
b_med, Background, medium-contrast.
b_low, Background, low-contrast.
b_inv, Background, for modals and overlays.

The Theme Format

The Theme file format is a simple SVG file. The theme.js loader will look for colors found in the element's id attributes. Save the image on your computer and drag it over the application window to install it.
