Angular Material doesn't currently provide a way to make custom components / directives themeable.
This service parses tokenized CSS to generate <style> tags based on the apps them which are added to the <head> section of the application.
- Code needs tidying
- Proper tests need writing
Requires Angular and Angular Material
In your index.html file, include the component theming module.
<!-- module -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="../src/md-component-theme/theming.component.js"></script>Include the material.core.theming.componentTheme module as a dependency in your application.
angular.module('myApp', ['ngMaterial', 'material.core.theming.componentTheme']);$mdComponentTheme service has one function $mdComponentTheme.generateTheme(css). The generate theme function accepts CSS as a string not a file.
It's useful to compile your SCSS/CSS to a constant during your components/directives build.
The CSS string can contain tokens which will get replaced with the correct colors for the apps theme at runtime.
THEME_NAMEe.g.md-button.md-THEME_NAME-theme{{color}}e.g.background-color: '{{primary-color}}'
See the Angular Material ```*-theme.scss`` files for more examples.
angular
.module('your.custom.component',['ngMaterial','material.core.theming.componentTheme'])
.directive('customComponent', customComponentDirective)
.constant("$CUSTOM_COMPONENT_THEME_CSS", "md-stepper.md-THEME_NAME-theme.md-primary md-step.active md-step-circle,md-stepper.md-THEME_NAME-theme.md-primary md-step.done md-step-circle{color:'{{primary-contrast}}';background-color:'{{primary-color}}'}...");
function customComponentDirective($injector,$mdComponentTheme) {
//Get component theme CSS
var themeCss = $injector.get('$MD_STEPPER_THEME_CSS');
// Parse CSS and add to HEAD with correct theme colors
$mdComponentTheme.generateTheme(themeCss);
