Use 4 & 8 character hex color notation in CSS
npm install postcss-color-hex-alphanpm install postcss-color-hex-alpha --save-dev
[PostCSS Color Hex Alpha] lets you use 4 & 8 character hex color notation in
CSS, following the [CSS Color Module] specification.
``css
body {
background: #9d9c;
}
/ becomes /
body {
background: rgba(153,221,153,0.8);
}
`
Add [PostCSS Color Hex Alpha] to your project:
`bash`
npm install postcss postcss-color-hex-alpha --save-dev
Use it as a [PostCSS] plugin:
`js
const postcss = require('postcss');
const postcssColorHexAlpha = require('postcss-color-hex-alpha');
postcss([
postcssColorHexAlpha(/ pluginOptions /)
]).process(YOUR_CSS /, processOptions /);
`
The preserve option determines whether the original notation
is preserved. By default, it is not preserved.
`js`
postcssColorHexAlpha({ preserve: true })
`css
body {
background: #9d9c;
}
/ becomes /
body {
background: rgba(153,221,153,0.8);
background: #9d9c;
}
