scss-mq
Media query helper library for sass.
Installation
npm i -S @nirazul/scss-mq
Usage
- Add the main file to your scss:
@use '@nirazul/scss-mq' as mq;
- Configure the lib according to your project's breakpoints:
@include mq.configure(('phone' 544px 'tablet' 992px 'desktop'))
- Start styling your breakpoints at your will
@include mq.media('phone') { /* my phone styles */ }
Documentation
Viewports and breakpoints
Add your breakpoints as a list of viewport names followed by a width. The neighbouring breakpoints limit the viewport: Left is included, right is excluded.
@include mq.configure(('xs' 544px 'sm' 768px 'md' 992px 'lg' 1280px 'xl'));
Either apply styles using viewports or a relative definition:
@include mq.media('xs') { /* #1 */ }
@include mq.media('>xs') { /* #2 */ }
@include mq.media('>=md') { /* #3 */ }
This compiles to:
@media (max-width: 543px) { /* #1 */ }
@media (min-width: 544px) { /* #2 */ }
@media (min-width: 768px) { /* #3 */ }
Notice that some expressions don't make sense as they would always be true or invalid. In that case, they return an error:
// The following examples are anti-patterns - Do not use!
@include mq.media('>=xs') {
/* error, as the query would always be active */
}
@include mq.media('<xs') {
/* error, as the query would be invalid due to a negative width */
}
@include mq.media('>xl') {
/* error, as "xl" has no upper limit */
}
Absolute values
For one-off scenarios you can use custom widths.
When using exclude operators (>
and <
) the width is reduced or increased by an amount defined by the configurable global values stored in $unit-intervals
.
@include mq.media('<1920px') { /* #1 */ }
This compiles to:
@media (max-width: 1919px) { /* #1 */ }
Combining media queries
You may combine expressions using a list. The list separator defines the conjunction type.
"AND" conjunction
To logically connect two expressions with "AND", use a list separator of type space
:
@include mq.media(('>sm' '<=lg')) { /* #1 */ }
This compiles to:
@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1279px) { /* #1 */ }
"OR" conjunction
To logically connect two expressions with "OR", use a list separator of type comma
:
@include mq.media(('<sm', '>lg')) { /* #1 */ }
This compiles to:
@media (max-width: 543px), (max-width: 1280px) { /* #1 */ }
Nesting expressions
You can even nest expressions and conjunctions. They will be resolved recursively. Notice that there is often a simpler way to achieve the same result.
@include mq.media(('xs', ('>md' '<=lg'))) { /* #1 */ }
This compiles to:
@media (max-width: 543px), (min-width: 992px) and (max-width: 1279px) { /* #1 */ }
Multiple configurations
You may use multiple configurations by adding a name. The default config name is default
.
@include mq.configure(('xs' 544px 'sm' 768px 'md' 992px 'lg' 1280px 'xl')); // Stored as 'default'
@include mq.configure(('phone' 768px 'desktop'), 'simple'); // Stored as 'simple'
@include mq.media('>xs') { /* Uses 'default' config */ }
@include mq.media(('>phone'), 'simple') { /* Uses 'simple' config */ }
Important
<br>
When using a config name, you need to pass a list as the first argument to mq.media
!
Media feature expressions
These are the default keywords that you can use alongside width expressions:
portrait
>(orientation: portrait)
landscape
>(orientation: landscape)
res2x
>(min-resolution: 2dppx)
res3x
>(min-resolution: 3dppx)
They are fully mixable with any other expression available to you and are customizable via the global config:
@include mq.media(('portrait' '>md')) { /* #1 */ }
This compiles to:
@media (orientation: portrait) and (min-width: 992px) { /* #1 */ }
Media type expressions and unknown keywords
Unknown expressions have the following properties:
- Not part of the config's expression keyword list
- Not a viewport name
- No operator in front of it
Unknown expressions will be handled as raw values and can be combined with any other expression.
@include mq.media(('print', 'portrait')) { /* #1 */ }
@include mq.media(('not screen' 'xs')) { /* #2 */ }
@include mq.media(('(any-pointer: coarse)' 'res2x')) { /* #3 */ }
This compiles to:
@media print, (orientation: portrait) { /* #1 */ }
@media not screen and (min-width: 543px) { /* #2 */ }
@media (any-pointer: coarse) and (min-resolution: 2dppx) { /* #3 */ }
Global configuration options
There is a number of global config options that have an effect on all available width configs. You can configure these options individually or all at once.
Unit intervals
Unit intervals increase or reduce limit sizes when using exclude operators (>
and <
).
@include mq.configure-globally($unit-intervals: ('px': 1, 'em': 0.005, 'rem': 0.01, '': 0));
Default values
$unit-intervals: ('px': 1, 'em': 0.01, 'rem': 0.1, '': 0);
Allowed operators
Width expressions can often be written in multiple ways. Considering the following config:
@include mq.configure-globally(('xs' 544px 'sm' 768px 'md' 992px 'lg'));
In this case >=sm
is identical to >xs
regarding the css output.
To reduce possible media expressions you can explicitly allow only a subset of available operators:
@include mq.configure-globally($allowed-operators: ('<=', '≤', '>'));
Default values
$allowed-operators: ('>=', '>', '<=', '<', '≥', '≤');
Media feature expressions
Media feature expressions can be registered as keywords. A few commonly used ones are included as defaults.
@include mq.configure-globally($media-feature-expressions: (coarse: '(any-pointer: coarse)', fine: '(any-pointer: fine)'));
Default values
$default-media-feature-expressions: (
portrait: '(orientation: portrait)',
landscape: '(orientation: landscape)',
res2x: ('(min-resolution: 2dppx)'),
res3x: ('(min-resolution: 3dppx)'),
);
To add keywords to the list instead of replacing it, you can merge the defaults with your own map:
@use 'sass:map';
@use '@nirazul/scss-mq' as mq;
$additional-media-feature-expressions: (coarse: '(any-pointer: coarse)', fine: '(any-pointer: fine)');
$merged: map.merge(mq.$default-media-feature-expressions, $additional-media-feature-expressions);
@include mq.configure-globally($media-feature-expressions: $merged);
Credits
Originally, this library was a fork of @dreipol/scss-mq
and implemented include-media
.
<br>
It is now maintained separately and as one package to speed up implementation of features such as the sass module syntax.
