Appearance and behavior of digitransit-ui can be customized by:
- Creating a custom config file to a path
app/configurations/config.<theme>.js
- Optionally adding custom style definitions to
sass/themes/<theme>
folder - If dynamic theme mapping to the new theme is desired, the new theme must be added to the
theme map found in
app/configurations/config.default.js
Check the existing themes such as 'oulu' for details. There is a npm script for initializing all three steps above with a single command:
npm run add-theme <name> '#RRGGBB' <optional navbar logo>
After running the command, the created skeleton files can be edited further.
The UI can change the theme per request. This happens by defining how host names are mapped to theme names. See config.default.js for details.
Dynamic theme mapping is not available when the UI server is launched as 'npm run dev'. The desired theme can de selected as:
CONFIG=<theme> npm run dev
Dynamic theme mapping is available by default in production mode i.e. when the app is launched using npm start
command. A single
selected theme can be forced by setting the CONFIG
env. variable:
CONFIG=<theme> npm start
The build command npm run build
collects all existing themes found from app/configurations
folder.
