Changing Tailwind text color class using Valtio, Next.js and Typescript
The Index Page contains the text 'Valtio Color Theme' which has a tailwind class variable for the text color along with the Color Wheel Component.
export default function Home() {
const snap = useSnapshot(colorState)
return (
<div className="flex justify-evenly">
<div
className={`flex items-center h-96 justify-center text-2xl ${snap.colorClassName}`}
>
<h1>Valtio Color Theme</h1>
</div>
<ColorWheel />
</div>
)
}
The Color Wheel Component imports an enum containing fixed text color tailwind classes.
export enum Color {
Red = 'text-red-500',
Pink = 'text-pink-500',
Rose = 'text-rose-500',
Purple = 'text-purple-500',
Fuchsia = 'text-fuchsia-500',
Indigo = 'text-indigo-500',
Blue = 'text-blue-500',
Sky = 'text-sky-500',
Cyan = 'text-cyan-500',
Teal = 'text-teal-500',
Green = 'text-green-500',
Lime = 'text-lime-500',
Yellow = 'text-yellow-500',
Amber = 'text-amber-500',
Orange = 'text-orange-500',
Emerald = 'text-emerald-500',
}
which it then maps over them and displays them in a grid. When you click on each color it changes the tailwind class variable for the div with 'Valtio Color Theme' inside the index page
const wheel = Object.keys(Color).map((keyName) => (
<div
key={keyName}
className={`${Color[keyName]} mx-2 flex items-center justify-center font-mono hover:cursor-pointer`}
onClick={() => actions.setColorState(Color[keyName])}
>
{keyName}
</div>
))
return <div className="grid grid-cols-4 gap-4 ">{wheel}</div>
The store.ts file contains the default state of the tailwind class variable name in the index page. It also contains an action function which acts as a setter for the tailwind class variable.
import { proxy } from 'valtio'
interface IColor {
colorClassName: String;
}
export const colorState = proxy < IColor > { colorClassName: 'text-slate-500' }
export const actions = {
setColorState(clickedColor: string) {
colorState.colorClassName = clickedColor
},
}
The Color Wheel Component imports the action function, which it then invokes onClick passing the tailwind class variable name of the clicked color as a parameter.
onClick={() => actions.setColorState(Color[keyName])}
