PostCSS-Multiple-Tailwind

PostCSS plugin to process multiple tailwindcss configs easily.

+-- admin
|   +-- index.css
|   +-- tailwind.config.js
+-- front-end
|   +-- index.css
|   +-- tailwind.config.js
+-- postcss.config.js
+-- package.json

This allows you to have a different theme for the two css files, or have different purge settings for both. (The configurations presets are very handy to allow all your configurations to share the same base.)

Basic usage

Add @multiple-tailwind; to your input files.

@multiple-tailwind;
@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

Postcss-multiple-tailwind will insert tailwindcss into the postcss process with the tailwind.config.js in the same folder as the input file.

You can also provide a different filename:

@multiple-tailwind tailwind-admin.config.js;
@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

Installation

Step 1: Install plugin:

yarn add -D postcss-multiple-tailwind

Note that you also should already have postcss and tailwindcss installed.

Step 2: Add the plugin to plugins list and remove tailwindcss:

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
-   require('tailwindcss'),
+   require('postcss-multiple-tailwind'),
    require('autoprefixer')
  ]
}

Options

Property	Type	Description
mode	"manual", "auto" Default: "manual"	The mode determines whether @multiple-tailwind; is required in each file to be processed. When setting to auto, it is not required.
defaultConfig	string Default: "tailwind.config.js"	The configuration file that should be used when none is specified

This config would look something like

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    require('postcss-multiple-tailwind')({ mode: 'auto', defaultConfig: 'my-app-styles.config.js' }),
    require('autoprefixer')
  ]
}
