Style shadow-DOM Loader

npm node deps tests coverage chat size

style-shadow-dom-loader

Inject CSS into the DOM.
This is the fork from Style-loader module and add the shadow-dom feature for webpack

Getting Started

To begin, you'll need to install style-shadow-dom-loader:

npm install --save-dev style-shadow-dom-loader

It's recommended to combine style-shadow-dom-loader with the css-loader

Then add the loader to your webpack config. For example:

style.css

body {
  background: green;
}

component.js

import "./style.css";

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: ["style-shadow-dom-loader", "css-loader"],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Options

Name Type Default Description
injectType {String} styleTag Allows to setup how styles will be injected into the DOM
attributes {Object} {} Adds custom attributes to tag
insert {String|Function} head Inserts tag at the given position into the DOM
styleTagTransform {String|Function} undefined Transform tag and css when insert 'style' tag into the DOM
base {Number} true Sets module ID base (DLLPlugin)
esModule {Boolean} true Use ES modules syntax

injectType

Type: String Default: styleTag

Allows to setup how styles will be injected into the DOM.

Possible values:

  • styleTag
  • singletonStyleTag
  • autoStyleTag
  • lazyStyleTag
  • lazySingletonStyleTag
  • lazyAutoStyleTag
  • linkTag
  • ShadowDOM

styleTag

Automatically injects styles into the DOM using multiple <style></style>. It is default behaviour.

component.js

import "./styles.css";

Example with Locals (CSS Modules):

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from "./styles.css";

const divElement = document.createElement("div");
divElement.className = styles["my-class"];

All locals (class names) stored in imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          // The `injectType`  option can be avoided because it is default behaviour
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { injectType: "styleTag" } },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader inject styles like:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>
<style>
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

singletonStyleTag

Automatically injects styles into the DOM using one <style></style>.

⚠ Source maps do not work.

component.js

import "./styles.css";

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from "./styles.css";

const divElement = document.createElement("div");
divElement.className = styles["my-class"];

All locals (class names) stored in imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: { injectType: "singletonStyleTag" },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader inject styles like:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

autoStyleTag

Works the same as a styleTag, but if the code is executed in IE6-9, turns on the singletonStyleTag mode.

lazyStyleTag

Injects styles into the DOM using multiple <style></style> on demand. We recommend following .lazy.css naming convention for lazy styles and the .css for basic style-shadow-dom-loader usage (similar to other file types, i.e. .lazy.less and .less). When you lazyStyleTag value the style-shadow-dom-loader injects the styles lazily making them useable on-demand via style.use() / style.unuse().

⚠️ Behavior is undefined when unuse is called more often than use. Don't do that.

component.js

import styles from "./styles.lazy.css";

styles.use();
// For removing styles you can use
// styles.unuse();

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from "./styles.lazy.css";

styles.use();

const divElement = document.createElement("div");
divElement.className = styles.locals["my-class"];

All locals (class names) stored in locals property of imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        exclude: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: ["style-shadow-dom-loader", "css-loader"],
      },
      {
        test: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { injectType: "lazyStyleTag" } },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader inject styles like:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>
<style>
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

lazySingletonStyleTag

Injects styles into the DOM using one <style></style> on demand. We recommend following .lazy.css naming convention for lazy styles and the .css for basic style-shadow-dom-loader usage (similar to other file types, i.e. .lazy.less and .less). When you lazySingletonStyleTag value the style-shadow-dom-loader injects the styles lazily making them useable on-demand via style.use() / style.unuse().

⚠️ Source maps do not work.

⚠️ Behavior is undefined when unuse is called more often than use. Don't do that.

component.js

import styles from "./styles.css";

styles.use();
// For removing styles you can use
// styles.unuse();

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from "./styles.lazy.css";

styles.use();

const divElement = document.createElement("div");
divElement.className = styles.locals["my-class"];

All locals (class names) stored in locals property of imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        exclude: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: ["style-shadow-dom-loader", "css-loader"],
      },
      {
        test: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: { injectType: "lazySingletonStyleTag" },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate this:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

lazyAutoStyleTag

Works the same as a lazyStyleTag, but if the code is executed in IE6-9, turns on the lazySingletonStyleTag mode.

linkTag

Injects styles into the DOM using multiple <link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/file.css"> .

ℹ️ The loader will dynamically insert the <link href="path/to/file.css" rel="stylesheet"> tag at runtime via JavaScript. You should use MiniCssExtractPlugin if you want to include a static <link href="path/to/file.css" rel="stylesheet">.

import "./styles.css";
import "./other-styles.css";

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.link\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { injectType: "linkTag" } },
          { loader: "file-loader" },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate this:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/style.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/other-styles.css" />

ShadowDOM

Automatically injects styles into a runtime container. You can import that the style content and inject into the shadow-DOM container.

component.js

import "./styles.css";

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { injectType: "shadowDOM" } },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

main.js

import component from 'component';
import getCss from 'style-shadow-dom-loader/dist/runtime/injectStyleInScript';

class MyElement extends Element {
    constructor() {
        super();

        const shadowContent = this.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' });  
        const style = document.createElement('style');

        style.innerHTML = getCss();
        shadowContent.appendChild(style);
    }
}

attributes

Type: Object Default: {}

If defined, the style-shadow-dom-loader will attach given attributes with their values on <style> / <link> element.

component.js

import style from "./file.css";

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { attributes: { id: "id" } } },
          { loader: "css-loader" },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};
<style id="id"></style>

insert

Type: String|Function Default: head

By default, the style-shadow-dom-loader appends <style>/<link> elements to the end of the style target, which is the <head> tag of the page unless specified by insert. This will cause CSS created by the loader to take priority over CSS already present in the target. You can use other values if the standard behavior is not suitable for you, but we do not recommend doing this. If you target an iframe make sure you have sufficient access rights, the styles will be injected into the content document head.

String

Selector

Allows to setup custom query selector where styles inject into the DOM.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              insert: "body",
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};
Absolute path to function

Allows to setup absolute path to custom function that allows to override default behavior and insert styles at any position.

⚠ Do not forget that this code will be used in the browser and not all browsers support latest ECMA features like let, const, arrow function expression and etc. We recommend using babel-loader for support latest ECMA features. ⚠ Do not forget that some DOM methods may not be available in older browsers, we recommended use only DOM core level 2 properties, but it is depends what browsers you want to support

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              insert: require.resolve("modulePath"),
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

A new <style>/<link> elements will be inserted into at bottom of body tag.

Function

Allows to override default behavior and insert styles at any position.

⚠ Do not forget that this code will be used in the browser and not all browsers support latest ECMA features like let, const, arrow function expression and etc, we recommend use only ECMA 5 features, but it is depends what browsers you want to support ⚠ Do not forget that some DOM methods may not be available in older browsers, we recommended use only DOM core level 2 properties, but it is depends what browsers you want to support

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {

      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              insert: function insertAtTop(element) {
                var parent = document.querySelector("head");
                // eslint-disable-next-line no-underscore-dangle
                var lastInsertedElement =
                  window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader;

                if (!lastInsertedElement) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, parent.firstChild);
                } else if (lastInsertedElement.nextSibling) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, lastInsertedElement.nextSibling);
                } else {
                  parent.appendChild(element);
                }

                // eslint-disable-next-line no-underscore-dangle
                window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader = element;
              },
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Insert styles at top of head tag.

styleTagTransform

Type: String | Function Default: undefined

String

Allows to setup absolute path to custom function that allows to override default behavior styleTagTransform.

⚠ Do not forget that this code will be used in the browser and not all browsers support latest ECMA features like let, const, arrow function expression and etc, we recommend use only ECMA 5 features, but it is depends what browsers you want to support

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              injectType: "styleTag",
              styleTagTransform: require.resolve("module-path"),
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Function

Transform tag and css when insert 'style' tag into the DOM.

⚠ Do not forget that this code will be used in the browser and not all browsers support latest ECMA features like let, const, arrow function expression and etc, we recommend use only ECMA 5 features, but it is depends what browsers you want to support ⚠ Do not forget that some DOM methods may not be available in older browsers, we recommended use only DOM core level 2 properties, but it is depends what browsers you want to support

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              injectType: "styleTag",
              styleTagTransform: function (css, style) {
                // Do something ...
                style.innerHTML = `${css}.modify{}\n`;

                document.head.appendChild(style);
              },
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

base

This setting is primarily used as a workaround for css clashes when using one or more DllPlugin's. base allows you to prevent either the app's css (or DllPlugin2's css) from overwriting DllPlugin1's css by specifying a css module id base which is greater than the range used by DllPlugin1 e.g.:

webpack.dll1.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: ["style-shadow-dom-loader", "css-loader"],
      },
    ],
  },
};

webpack.dll2.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { base: 1000 } },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

webpack.app.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader", options: { base: 2000 } },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

esModule

Type: Boolean Default: true

By default, style-shadow-dom-loader generates JS modules that use the ES modules syntax. There are some cases in which using ES modules is beneficial, like in the case of module concatenation and tree shaking.

You can enable a CommonJS modules syntax using:

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
        options: {
          esModule: false,
        },
      },
    ],
  },
};

Examples

Recommend

For production builds it's recommended to extract the CSS from your bundle being able to use parallel loading of CSS/JS resources later on. This can be achieved by using the mini-css-extract-plugin, because it creates separate css files. For development mode (including webpack-dev-server) you can use style-shadow-dom-loader, because it injects CSS into the DOM using multiple <style></style> and works faster.

⚠ Do not use together style-shadow-dom-loader and mini-css-extract-plugin.

webpack.config.js

const MiniCssExtractPlugin = require("mini-css-extract-plugin");
const devMode = process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production";

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.(sa|sc|c)ss$/,
        use: [
          devMode ? "style-shadow-dom-loader" : MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,
          "css-loader",
          "postcss-loader",
          "sass-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
  plugins: [].concat(devMode ? [] : [new MiniCssExtractPlugin()]),
};

Named export for CSS Modules

⚠ Names of locals are converted to camelCase.

⚠ It is not allowed to use JavaScript reserved words in css class names.

⚠ Options esModule and modules.namedExport in css-loader should be enabled.

styles.css

.foo-baz {
  color: red;
}
.bar {
  color: blue;
}

index.js

import { fooBaz, bar } from "./styles.css";

console.log(fooBaz, bar);

You can enable a ES module named export using:

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
          },
          {
            loader: "css-loader",
            options: {
              modules: {
                namedExport: true,
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Source maps

The loader automatically inject source maps when previous loader emit them. Therefore, to generate source maps, set the sourceMap option to true for the previous loader.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          "style-shadow-dom-loader",
          { loader: "css-loader", options: { sourceMap: true } },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Nonce

There are two ways to work with nonce:

  • using the attributes option
  • using the __webpack_nonce__ variable

⚠ the attributes option takes precedence over the __webpack_nonce__ variable

attributes

component.js

import "./style.css";

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              attributes: {
                nonce: "12345678",
              },
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate:

<style nonce="12345678">
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

__webpack_nonce__

create-nonce.js

__webpack_nonce__ = "12345678";

component.js

import "./create-nonce.js";
import "./style.css";

Alternative example for require:

component.js

__webpack_nonce__ = "12345678";

require("./style.css");

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: ["style-shadow-dom-loader", "css-loader"],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate:

<style nonce="12345678">
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

Insert styles at top

Inserts styles at top of head tag.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-shadow-dom-loader",
            options: {
              insert: function insertAtTop(element) {
                var parent = document.querySelector("head");
                var lastInsertedElement =
                  window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader;

                if (!lastInsertedElement) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, parent.firstChild);
                } else if (lastInsertedElement.nextSibling) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, lastInsertedElement.nextSibling);
                } else {
                  parent.appendChild(element);
                }

                window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader = element;
              },
            },
          },
          "css-loader",
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Insert styles before target element

Inserts styles before #id element.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
