Start by setting a variable to the colors you want:
$rainbow: red orange yellow green blue indigo violet;You could set individual variables for each color as well. You would still pass them all as a single argument, or join them into a single variable before passing, as you see fit.
Here’s the function:
// Returns a striped gradient for use anywhere gradients are accepted.
// - $position: the starting position or angle of the gradient.
// - $colors: a list of all the colors to be used.
@function stripes($position, $colors) {
$colors: if(type-of($colors) != 'list', compact($colors), $colors);
$gradient: compact();
$width: 100% / length($colors);
@for $i from 1 through length($colors) {
$pop: nth($colors,$i);
$new: $pop ($width * ($i - 1)), $pop ($width * $i);
$gradient: join($gradient, $new, comma);
}
@return linear-gradient($position, $gradient);
}And how to use it:
.rainbow {
@include background-image(stripes(left, $rainbow));
}Jina has posted a demo and explanation on CodePen.
(The real lesson here is that all the colors of the rainbow are acceptable CSS color keywords. Go forth and queer the web.)
API changes can be a headache in the frontend, but some initial setup can help you develop and adapt to API changes as they come. In this article, we look at one method of using OpenAPI to generate a typesafe and up-to-date frontend API client.
