tachyons-generator

This repo is currently under active development. It isn't currently ready for production, but we hope to have a beta out soon. Pull requests and issues welcome! If you'd like to lend a hand but don't know where to start please ping @johnotander :heart:.

Generate a custom Tachyons build with a json configuration. Inspiration from this tachyons issue.

Installation

npm i -S tachyons-generator

Or, use a curl request to generate css and docs

curl -X POST \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"typeScale": [5,4,3,2,1,0.5] }' \
     https://tachyons.pub

or post the config.json file

curl -X POST \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d @config.json \
     https://tachyons.pub

Usage

This will generate an index.html file with the generated style guide as well as a static css file.

const fs = require('fs')

const tachyonsGenerator = require('tachyons-generator')
const config = require('./config.json')

const generate = async () => {
  const tachy = tachyonsGenerator(config)

  const out = await tachy.generate()

  fs.writeFileSync('index.html', out.docs)
  fs.writeFileSync('tachyons.css', out.css)
  fs.writeFileSync('tachyons.min.css', out.min)
}

generate()

You can also omit the partials you don't need with the key skipModules, for example if you don't want normalize.css in the bundle you can do:

{
  "skipModules": ["normalize"]
}

Example npm commands

You can automate the generation and publishing using something like this pattern

  "start": "npm run build && npm run publish",
  "build": "node index.js",
  "publish": "curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @config.json  https://tachyons.pub"
