Svelte CSS Modules loader
The loader is a complement to the svelte-loader to enable the use of CSS Modules classname on Svelte components. Make sure to install the svelte-loader along with the svelte-cssmodules-loader
npm install --save-dev svelte-cssmodules-loader svelte-loader
Webpack Configuration
The svelte-cssmodules-loader is doing all its work on a "raw" Svelte component (before the compilation). The loader needs to be executed before svelte-loader.
...
module: {
rules: [
...
{
test: /\.(html|svelte)$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
use: [
'svelte-loader',
'svelte-cssmodules-loader',
]
}
...
]
}
...
localIdentName Option
Set your own localIdentName rule by using any available token from webpack interpolateName.
...
module: {
rules: [
...
{
test: /\.(html|svelte)$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
use: [
'svelte-loader',
{
loader: 'svelte-cssmodules-loader',
options: {
localIdentName: '[local]-[hash:base64:6]', // your rule here
}
}
]
}
...
]
}
...
Please note: if the option is not defined, the default rule [local]-[hash:base64:6] will be applied.
Usage on Svelte Component
On the HTML markup (not the CSS), Prefix any class name that require CSS Modules by $style. => $style.My_CLASSNAME
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.red {
color: red;
}
</style>
<p class="$style.red">My red text</p>
After svelte-cssmodules-loader, the component will be transformed to
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.red-30_1IC {
color: red;
}
</style>
<p class="red-30_1IC">My red text</p>
Replace only the required class
The loader only generates CSS Modules classname to the html class values prefixed by $style.. The rest is left untouched.
Before
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.blue {
color: blue;
}
.red {
color: red;
}
.text-center {
text-align: center;
}
</style>
<p class="blue text-center">My blue text</p>
<p class="$style.red text-center">My red text</p>
After svelte-cssmodules-loader
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.blue {
color: blue;
}
.red-2iBDzf {
color: red;
}
.text-center {
text-align: center;
}
</style>
<p class="blue text-center">My blue text</p>
<p class="red-2iBDzf text-center">My red text</p>
Remove unspecified class
If a CSS Modules class has no css style attached, it will be removed from the class attribute.
Before
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.text-center { text-align: center; }
</style>
<p class="$style.blue text-center">My blue text</p>
After svelte-cssmodules-loader
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.text-center { text-align: center; }
</style>
<p class="text-center">My blue text</p>
Target any classname format
kebab-case or camelCase, name the classes the way you're more comfortable with. svelte-cssmodules-loader will make no difference.
Before
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.red { color: red; }
.red-crimson { color: crimson; }
.redMajenta { color: magenta; }
</style>
<span class="$style.red">Red</span>
<span class="$style.red-crimson">Crimson</span>
<span class="$style.redMajenta">Majenta</span>
After svelte-cssmodules-loader
<!-- MyComponent.svelte -->
<script>
...
</script>
<style>
.red-2xTdmA { color: red; }
.red-crimson-1lu8Sg { color: crimson; }
.redMajenta-2wdRa3 { color: magenta; }
</style>
<span class="red-2xTdmA">Red</span>
<span class="red-crimson-1lu8Sg">Crimson</span>
<span class="redMajenta-2wdRa3">Majenta</span>

Why CSS Modules on Svelte
While the native CSS Scoped system should be largely enough to avoid class conflict, it could find its limit when working on a hybrid project. On a non full javascript front-end where Svelte is used to enhance pieces of the page, the thought on the class naming is no less different than the one on a regular html page. For example, on the modal component above, It would have been wiser to namespace some of the classes such as .modal-body and .modal-cancel to avoid inheriting styles from other .body and .cancel.
