A value the compiler can only partly convert is kept in part: --t: 10px 1cap renders translate: var(--t) as { translate: true } #523

Before submitting a new issue

  • I tested using the latest version of the library, as the bug might be already fixed.
  • I tested using a supported version of react native.
  • I checked for possible duplicate issues, with possible answers.

Bug summary

A declaration whose value does not match its property's grammar is invalid and ignored, and a var() that substitutes such a value makes the declaration invalid at computed-value time, so the property is unset. The compiler keeps the tokens it can convert and drops the rest: translate: 10px 1cap moves the element 10px, and the same value through a variable renders { translate: true }; font-family: Inter, Helvetica,, a stack with an empty entry, sets the array ["Inter", "Helvetica"] either way.

All four fail, the element receiving:

translate:                    {"transform": [{"translateX": 10}, {"translateY": undefined}]}
translate through a variable: {"transform": [{"translate": true}]}
font-family:                  {"fontFamily": ["Inter", "Helvetica"]}
font-family through a variable: {"fontFamily": ["Inter", "Helvetica"]}

reduceParseUnparsed (src/compiler/declarations.ts) maps every token through parseUnparsed and keeps what is not undefined; parseUnparsed returns undefined, with a warning, for a length whose unit it cannot convert, for inherit and initial, and for a token it does not read, and an empty entry between commas leaves no group. #389 and #417 ignore the written translate and font stack; a custom property's value goes through reduceParseUnparsed and keeps what it can convert.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Clone the reproducer branch, which is main at 2421ea7 with one file added, src/__tests__/native/custom-property-partial-value.test.tsx, and install:
    git clone --branch repro/523-custom-property-drops-what-it-cannot-take https://github.com/YevheniiKotyrlo/react-native-css
    cd react-native-css
    yarn install
  2. Run yarn jest src/__tests__/native/custom-property-partial-value.test.tsx.

src/__tests__/native/custom-property-partial-value.test.tsx:

import { render, screen } from "@testing-library/react-native";
import { Text } from "react-native-css/components/Text";
import { View } from "react-native-css/components/View";
import { registerCSS, testID } from "react-native-css/jest";

test.each([
  ["translate", ".a { translate: 10px 1cap; }"],
  [
    "translate through a variable",
    ":root { --t: 10px 1cap; } .a { translate: var(--t); }",
  ],
])("%s holding 10px 1cap leaves the element untranslated", (_, css) => {
  registerCSS(css, { inlineVariables: false });
  render(<View testID={testID} className="a" />);
  expect(screen.getByTestId(testID).props.style).toBeUndefined();
});

test.each([
  ["font-family", ".a { font-family: Inter, Helvetica,; }"],
  [
    "font-family through a variable",
    ":root { --t: Inter, Helvetica,; } .a { font-family: var(--t); }",
  ],
])("%s holding Inter, Helvetica, sets no font", (_, css) => {
  registerCSS(css, { inlineVariables: false });
  render(<Text testID={testID} className="a" />);
  expect(screen.getByTestId(testID).props.style).toBeUndefined();
});

Expected: a value the compiler cannot convert whole leaves its property unset, written or read through a variable.

Actual: the parts it can convert are kept: translate: var(--t) over 10px 1cap renders { translate: true }, and font-family: Inter, Helvetica, sets ["Inter", "Helvetica"].
