How to handle multiple color schemes
I have a quasar project with a dark theme switch. But I want to change the whole color scheme when if using the dark mode.
I don't know anything about sass, and I wonder that it can be done by updating sass variables when the user changes the theme.
Here's the actual sass variables defined in src/css/quasar.variables.sass
(light theme):
// Quasar Sass (& SCSS) Variables
// --------------------------------------------------
// To customize the look and feel of this app, you can override
// the Sass/SCSS variables found in Quasar's source Sass/SCSS files.
// Check documentation for full list of Quasar variables
// Your own variables (that are declared here) and Quasar's own
// ones will be available out of the box in your .vue/.scss/.sass files
// It's highly recommended to change the default colors
// to match your app's branding.
// Tip: Use the "Theme Builder" on Quasar's documentation website.
$primary : #1976D2
$secondary : #26A69A
$accent : #9C27B0
$dark : #1D1D1D
$positive : #21BA45
$negative : #C10015
$info : #31CCEC
$warning : #F2C037
And when the dark theme is enabled I want to have something like :
$primary : red
$secondary : blue
$accent : green
$dark : #1D1D1D
$positive : #21BA45
$negative : #C10015
$info : #31CCEC
$warning : #F2C037
Is there a way to achieve this ? Can I put some logic in a .sass file ?
You can programmatically change the brand colors using setCssVar like this:
import { setCssVar } from 'quasar';
//...
setup() {
// Setup theme
setCssVar('primary', '#1976d2');
setCssVar('secondary', '#26A69A');
setCssVar('accent', '#9C27B0');
setCssVar('dark', '#1d1d1d');
setCssVar('positive', '#21BA45');
setCssVar('negative', '#C10015');
setCssVar('info', '#31CCEC');
setCssVar('warning', '#F2C037');
// ...
}
Quasar V1 solution
Finally found it in the docs.
import { colors } from 'quasar'
colors.setBrand('light', '#DDD')
colors.setBrand('primary', '#33F')
colors.setBrand('primary', '#F33', document.getElementById('rebranded-section-id'))
