@theme-ui/match-media

React hooks for referencing theme-ui breakpoints.

npm i @theme-ui/match-media

Usage

This package provides two React hooks useResponsiveValue and useBreakpointIndex for referencing responsive values outside of the sx prop. Note that this is a client-side-only, JavaScript solution.

import { useResponsiveValue, useBreakpointIndex } from '@theme-ui/match-media'

const MyComponent = () => {
  // Return literal values:
  const color = useResponsiveValue(['red', 'green', 'blue'])
  // Or provide a function to access theme values:
  const themeColor = useResponsiveValue((theme) => [
    theme.colors.red,
    theme.colors.green,
    theme.colors.blue,
  ])
  // `useBreakpointIndex` returns the index of the currently matched media query:
  const index = useBreakpointIndex()

  return (
    <div>
      The current color is: {color}, and the current index is: {index}
    </div>
  )
}

Server side rendering

Each hook also accepts an options object, used to set a default breakpoint index when rendering on the server.

import { useResponsiveValue, useBreakpointIndex } from '@theme-ui/match-media'

const MyComponent = () => {
  const color = useResponsiveValue(['red', 'green', 'blue'], {
    defaultIndex: 1,
  })
  const index = useBreakpointIndex({ defaultIndex: 0 })

  return (
    <div>
      The current color is: {color}, and the current index is: {index}
      // Gatsby will output: // The current color is: green, and the current index
      is: 0
    </div>
  )
}

Each hook uses breakpoints[0] by default, if not specified.

import { useResponsiveValue, useBreakpointIndex } from '@theme-ui/match-media'

const MyComponent = () => {
  const color = useResponsiveValue(['red', 'green', 'blue'])
  const index = useBreakpointIndex()

  return (
    <div>
      The current color is: {color}, and the current index is: {index}
      // Gatsby will output: // The current color is: red, and the current index
      is: 0
    </div>
  )
}
