Installation
Install with npm
npm install --save @brightlayer-ui/angular-themesor yarn
yarn add @brightlayer-ui/angular-themesUsage
In order to use the Brightlayer UI themes and font (Open Sans), you will need to modify your angular.json file "styles" entries (there is one under "build" and one under "test") to include the Brightlayer UI themes and Open Sans reference:
"styles": [
"src/styles.scss",
"./node_modules/@brightlayer-ui/angular-themes/theme.scss",
"./node_modules/@brightlayer-ui/angular-themes/open-sans.scss"
],Alternatively, you can also import the theme file in your top-level SCSS file.
// in styles.scss or your top-level scss file
use '@brightlayer-ui/angular-themes/theme.scss'
use '@brightlayer-ui/angular-themes/open-sans.scss'You can then apply the theme to your application by adding the proper class to your application's body element:
// Default Theme
<body class="blui-blue">
// Dark Theme
<body class="blui-blue-dark">If you do not specify a theme class, your application will use the default Material theme.
Customization
If you need to customize the styles (for OEM purposes for example). You can import the styles and define the customization in your top level scss file.
// in styles.scss or your top-level scss file
use '@brightlayer-ui/angular-themes/theme_bases';
use '@brightlayer-ui/angular-themes/open-sans.scss';
@include theme-bases.coreTypography();
body {
$blui-blue-primary: mat.define-palette($primary);
$blui-blue-accent: mat.define-palette($accent);
$blui-blue-warn: mat.define-palette($warn);
@include theme-bases.light-theme($blui-blue-primary, $blui-blue-accent, $blui-blue-warn);
}Where the variables $primary, $accent and $warn must be a palette. The values in the palette can be CSS custom properties or css colors.
Custom Classes and Attributes
Brightlayer UI provides some custom classes and attributes that can be used to further align it with Material Design specifications.
blui-inline
blui-inline is an attribute that can be placed on a mat-button that applies custom icon-sizing and placement.
Usage
<button blui-inline mat-flat-button color="primary">
<mat-icon>download</mat-icon>
<span>Download</span>
</button>
blui-input
blui-input is an attribute that can be applied to a mat-form-field to standardize the height to be 56px.
Usage
<mat-form-field blui-input appearance="standard">
<input matInput placeholder="Placeholder" />
<mat-label>Legacy</mat-label>
<mat-hint>Hint</mat-hint>
<mat-hint align="end">0/10</mat-hint>
<mat-icon matSuffix>info</mat-icon>
<mat-icon matPrefix>info</mat-icon>
</mat-form-field>
blui Typography
Our Brightlayer UI Typography guidelines align with Material Design's recommended naming convention and size specifications.
We have included a custom set of blui-[name] classes to match our documentation, eliminating the need to cross-reference Angular Material's default typography naming convention to find a specific correct font.
Usage
<div class="blui-headline-1">Headline 1</div>
<div class="blui-headline-2">Headline 2</div>
...
<div class="blui-overline">Overline</div>
