[PostCSS Is Pseudo Class] lets you use the `:is` pseudo class function, following the
[CSS Selector] specification.
```pcss
:is(input, button):is(:hover, :focus) {
order: 1;
}
```
Becomes :
```pcss
input:hover {
order: 1;
}
input:focus {
order: 1;
}
button:hover {
order: 1;
}
button:focus {
order: 1;
}
```
## Usage
Add [PostCSS Is Pseudo Class] to your project:
```bash
npm install @csstools/postcss-is-pseudo-class --save-dev
```
Use [PostCSS Is Pseudo Class] as a [PostCSS] plugin:
```js
import postcss from 'postcss';
import postcssIsPseudoClass from '@csstools/postcss-is-pseudo-class';
postcss([
postcssIsPseudoClass(/* pluginOptions */)
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
```
[PostCSS Is Pseudo Class] runs in all Node environments, with special instructions for:
| [Node](INSTALL.md#node) | [Webpack](INSTALL.md#webpack) | [Create React App](INSTALL.md#create-react-app) | [Gulp](INSTALL.md#gulp) | [Grunt](INSTALL.md#grunt) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
## Options
### preserve
The `preserve` option determines whether the original notation
is preserved. By default, it is not preserved.
```js
postcss([
postcssIsPseudoClass({ preserve: true })
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
```
```pcss
:is(input, button):is(:hover, :focus) {
order: 1;
}
```
Becomes :
```pcss
input:hover {
order: 1;
}
input:focus {
order: 1;
}
button:hover {
order: 1;
}
button:focus {
order: 1;
}
:is(input, button):is(:hover, :focus) {
order: 1;
}
```
### specificityMatchingName
The `specificityMatchingName` option allows you to change to selector used to adjust specificity.
The default value is `does-not-exist`.
If this is an actual class, id or tag name in your code, you will need to set a different option here.
See how `:not` is used to modify [specificity](#specificity).
```js
postcss([
postcssIsPseudoClass({ specificityMatchingName: 'something-random' })
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
```
```pcss
:is(.button, button):hover {
order: 7;
}
```
Becomes :
```pcss
.button:hover {
order: 7;
}
button:not(.something-random):hover {
order: 7;
}
```
### onComplexSelector
Warn on complex selectors in `:is` pseudo class functions.
```js
postcss([
postcssIsPseudoClass({ onComplexSelector: 'warning' })
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
```
### onPseudoElement
Warn when pseudo elements are used in `:is` pseudo class functions.
Pseudo elements are always invalid and will be transformed to `::-csstools-invalid-<pseudo-name>`.
```js
postcss([
postcssIsPseudoClass({ onPseudoElement: 'warning' })
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
```
```css
:is(::after):hover {
order: 1.0;
}
/* becomes */
::-csstools-invalid-after:hover {
order: 1.0;
}
```
## ⚠ Known shortcomings
### Specificity
`:is` takes the specificity of the most specific list item.
We can increase specificity with `:not` selectors, but we can't decrease it.
Converted selectors are ensured to have the same specificity as `:is` for the most important bit.
Less important bits can have higher specificity that `:is`.
Before :
[specificity: 0, 2, 0](https://polypane.app/css-specificity-calculator/#selector=%3Ais(%3Ahover%2C%20%3Afocus)%3Ais(.button%2C%20button))
```pcss
:is(:hover, :focus):is(.button, button) {
order: 7;
}
```
After :
```pcss
/* specificity: [0, 2, 0] */
.button:hover {
order: 7;
}
/* specificity: [0, 2, 1] */
/* last bit is higher than it should be, but middle bit matches */
button:not(.does-not-exist):hover {
order: 7;
}
/* specificity: [0, 2, 0] */
.button:focus {
order: 7;
}
/* specificity: [0, 2, 1] */
/* last bit is higher than it should be, but middle bit matches */
button:not(.does-not-exist):focus {
order: 7;
}
```
### Complex selectors
Before :
```pcss
:is(.alpha > .beta) ~ :is(:focus > .beta) {
order: 2;
}
```
After :
```pcss
.alpha > .beta ~ :focus > .beta {
order: 2;
}
```
_this is a different selector than expected as `.beta ~ :focus` matches `.beta` followed by `:focus`._<br>
_avoid these cases._<br>
_writing the selector without `:is()` is advised here_
```pcss
/* without is */
.alpha:focus > .beta ~ .beta {
order: 2;
}
```
If you have a specific pattern you can open an issue to discuss it.
We can detect and transform some cases but can't generalize them into a single solution that tackles all of them.
