Attaching Props

✏️ Edit this page

Some css-in-js libraries offer APIs to attach props to components, instead of having our own API to do that, we recommend creating a regular react component, using the css prop and attaching props like you would with any other React component.

Note that if css is passed down via props, it will take precedence over the css in the component.

import { css } from '@emotion/react'

const pinkInput = css`
  background-color: pink;
`
const RedPasswordInput = props => (
  <input
    type="password"
    css={css`
      background-color: red;
      display: block;
    `}
    {...props}
  />
)

render(
  <div>
    <RedPasswordInput placeholder="red" />
    <RedPasswordInput placeholder="pink" css={pinkInput} />
  </div>
)

import { css } from '@emotion/react'

const pinkInput = css`
  background-color: pink;
`
const RedPasswordInput = props => (
  <input
    type="password"
    css={css`
      background-color: red;
      display: block;
    `}
    {...props}
  />
)

render(
  <div>
    <RedPasswordInput placeholder="red" />
    <RedPasswordInput placeholder="pink" css={pinkInput} />
  </div>
)
