The button styles allow you to easily create and customize lightweight buttons on the fly. In the _button.scss file, you can find multiple mixins that can be used to create your own buttons and style them the way you want.

Making a button base

To make a new base style for all buttons, use the make-btn mixin.

Definition

make-btn(	
	$btn-name, 
	$btn-border, 
	$btn-border-radius, 
	$btn-margin, 
	$btn-padding, 
	$btn-color, 
	$btn-bg-color,
	$btn-hover-style, 
	$btn-hover-style-percentage, 
	$btn-cursor, 
	$btn-disabled-cursor, 
	$btn-disabled-opacity)

Parameters

  • $btn-name : The class name of the buttons.
  • $btn-border : The border of the buttons.
  • $btn-border-radius : The border-radius of the buttons.
  • $btn-margin : The margin of the buttons.
  • $btn-padding : The padding of the buttons.
  • $btn-color : The text color of the buttons.
  • $btn-bg-color : The background color of the buttons.
  • $btn-hover-style : Hover/active/focus style of the buttons. [1]
  • $btn-hover-style-percentage : Hover/active/focus style of the buttons percentage modifier.
  • $btn-cursor : The cursor style when hovering over the buttons.
  • $btn-disabled-cursor : The cursor style when hovering over the buttons whie disabled.
  • $btn-disabled-opacity : The opacity of the buttons when disabled.

Notes:

  • [1] : The values that $btn-hover-style can take are lighten and darken. The inside condition only checks if the value is lighten and acts accordingly. Invalid values are treated as darken.
  • [2] : This only creates a basic button style. For more styles use make-btn-style.

Adding custom styles

To add a new custom style class, use the make-btn-style mixin.

Definition

make-btn-style(
	$btn-name, 
	$btn-style-name, 
	$btn-style-color, 
	$btn-style-bg-color, 
	$btn-style-hover-style: lighten, 
	$btn-style-hover-style-percentage: 7.5%)

Parameters

  • $btn-name : The class name of the buttons. [1]
  • $btn-style-name : The class name of the button style.
  • $btn-style-color : The text color of the button style.
  • $btn-style-bg-color : The background color of the button style.
  • $btn-style-hover-style : Hover/active/focus style of the button style. [2][3]
  • $btn-style-hover-style-percentage : Hover/active/focus style of the button style percentage modifier.[3]

Notes:

  • [1] : The value of $btn-name must be the same as the value specified when using make-btn, otherwise the specified style will not work correctly.
  • [2] : The values that $btn-style-hover-style can take are lighten and darken. The inside condition only checks if the value is lighten and acts accordingly. Invalid values are treated as darken.
  • [3] : The values of $btn-style-hover-style and $btn-style-hover-style-percentage default to lighten and 7.5% if not specified.
  • [4] : This mixin should be used in combination with make-btn and is suggested that you use it after make-btn.

Adding custom sizes

To add a new custom size class, use the make-btn-size mixin.

Definition

make-btn-size(
	$btn-name, 
	$btn-size-name, 
	$btn-size-padding,
	$btn-size-font-size)

Parameters

  • $btn-name : The class name of the buttons. [1]
  • $btn-size-name : The class name of the button size.
  • $btn-size-padding : The padding of the button size.
  • $btn-size-font-size : The font-size of the button size.

Notes:

  • [1] : The value of $btn-name must be the same as the value specified when using make-btn, otherwise the specified style will not work correctly.
  • [2] : This mixin should be used in combination with make-btn and is suggested that you use it after make-btn.

Remarks

  • After creting a base button style with make-btn, multiple sizes and styles can be defined using the other two mixins.
  • Please exercise caution when naming style classes, especially if the names are the names of web-safe colors. For example if you want to create the .btn.blue class, pass the name blue in quotation marks like 'blue' to avoid automatic conversion.
  • The included mixin btn-variant is used internally for the creation of styled buttons. Please avoid using this mixin directly and use make-btn-style instead.
