PostCSS Logical Float And Clear [][PostCSS]

npm install @csstools/postcss-logical-float-and-clear --save-dev

[PostCSS Logical Float And Clear] lets you use logical, rather than physical, direction and dimension mappings in CSS, following the [CSS Logical Properties and Values] specification.

``css
.element {
clear: inline-start;
float: inline-end;
}

/ becomes /

.element {
clear: left;
float: right;
}
`

Usage

Add [PostCSS Logical Float And Clear] to your project:

`bash
npm install postcss @csstools/postcss-logical-float-and-clear --save-dev
`

Use it as a [PostCSS] plugin:

`js
const postcss = require('postcss');
const postcssLogicalFloatAndClear = require('@csstools/postcss-logical-float-and-clear');

postcss([
postcssLogicalFloatAndClear(/ pluginOptions /)
]).process(YOUR_CSS /, processOptions /);
`

Options

$3

The inlineDirection option allows you to specify the direction of the inline axe. The default value is left-to-right, which would match any latin language.

You should tweak this value so that it is specific to your language and writing mode.

`js
postcssLogicalFloatAndClear({
inlineDirection: 'right-to-left'
})
`

`css
.element {
clear: inline-start;
float: inline-end;
}

/ becomes /

.element {
clear: right;
float: left;
}
`

Each direction must be one of the following:

- top-to-bottom
- bottom-to-top
- left-to-right
- right-to-left

Please do note that transformations won't run if inlineDirection` becomes vertical.
