| '''Abstract.''' In this article, you can learn how to create customized themes and use them to change the look of you appsuite installation.
| |
| __TOC__
| |
| == LESS.JS ==
| |
| Appsuite used LESS as dynamic stylesheet language. LESS extends CSS with dynamic behavior such as variables, mixins, operations and functions.
| |
| | |
| Please read [http://lesscss.org/#docs LESS.JS] documentation first.
| |
| | |
| === Using less.js ===
| |
| If your theme depends on less.js, you will need one more step to make it work. Why? To accelerate the login, compilation of LessCSS files was moved from the login process in the browser to the installation process on the backend.
| |
| | |
| Backend packages for themes and any apps which ship .less files require the following changes:
| |
| | |
| 1. Add "skipLess=1" to the build command in *.spec and in debian/rules:
| |
| sh /opt/open-xchange-appsuite-dev/bin/build-appsuite app skipLess=1
| |
| 2. Add %post and %postun sections to *.spec:
| |
| %post
| |
| if [ "$1" = 1 ]; then
| |
| UPDATE=/opt/open-xchange/appsuite/share/update-themes.sh
| |
| [ -x $UPDATE ] && $UPDATE
| |
| fi
| |
| %postun
| |
| UPDATE=/opt/open-xchange/appsuite/share/update-themes.sh
| |
| [ -x $UPDATE ] && $UPDATE
| |
| | |
| For multiple binary packages, the %post and %postun sections should apply only to backend packages
| |
| which contain .less files.
| |
| | |
| 3. Add debian/postinst and debian/postrm containing the same content:
| |
| #!/bin/sh
| |
| UPDATE=/opt/open-xchange/appsuite/share/update-themes.sh
| |
| [ -x $UPDATE ] && $UPDATE
| |
| | |
| For multiple binary packages, the postinst and postrm files should apply only to backend packages which contain .less files.
| |
| | |
| Note: Since 7.2.1, LessCSS files must have the file extension .less to be usable with the 'less' RequireJS plugin (module dependencies of the form 'less!filename.less'). Previously we were more lenient and dealt with .css, too.
| |
| | |
| == File structure ==
| |
| A theme basically consists of two files located in <code>apps/themes/<var>THEME_ID</var>/</code>. These files are described in this and the following sections.
| |
| | |
| <code><var>THEME_ID</var></code> is a unique identifier for your theme, which is not visible to users. By convention, it is best derived from a domain name you control, e.g. <code>com.example.prettytheme</code>.
| |
| | |
| === definitions.less ===
| |
| This file can be used to override variables described in the "Variables" section of this article.
| |
| | |
| === style.less ===
| |
| This file can be used to define any CSS you like. Before doing this, check, if there really is no variable that can be used to achieve the same thing.
| |
| | |
| ==== Referencing paths ===
| |
| Since 7.2.1, all URLs are relative to the source .less file in which they are contained. This means that unless a theme changes an image it does not need to include that image anymore.
| |
| | |
| Old themes must be updated if they change an image from the default theme: All styles from the default theme which refer to a changed image must be overwritten in the custom theme. This way the URLs resolve to the new image.
| |
| | |
| == Variables ==
| |
| | |
| Naming of the variables should be straight forward. Variables containing the word ''Background'' will always refer to the background color. Variables containing ''Color'' will refer to the foreground color of an element, like color of a font. ''Hover'' in most cases means "hovered" elements. ''Selected'' relates to the currently selected item. Elements that are supposed to catch the users eye can use the ''Highlight'' class and the variable contains this word.

| == Area names ==
| |
| | |
| The variables sometimes refer to common areas. To identify which area is located where, see the following annotated screenshots.
| |
| | |
| [[File:Colors_mail.png|800px||Mail application]]
| |
| | |
| [[File:Colors_launchpad.png|800px||Launchpad application]]
| |
| | |
| == Mixins ==
| |
| In LESS, it is possible to include a bunch of properties from one ruleset into another ruleset. So say we have the following class:
| |
| | |
| === Sample ===
| |
| <pre class="language-css">
| |
| .border-radius(@radius: 0px) {
| |
| -webkit-border-radius: @radius;
| |
| -moz-border-radius: @radius;
| |
| -ms-border-radius: @radius;
| |
| border-radius: @radius;
| |
| }
| |
| | |
| #menu a {
| |
| color: #111;
| |
| .border-radius(5px);
| |
| }
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| Read [http://www.lesscss.org/#-mixins LESS Mixins]
| |
| | |
| === global OX Mixins ===
| |
| | |
| they can be found at [[#definitions.less | definitions.less]]

| == How to activate a theme during development ==
| |
| | |
| When creating a new theme, you don’t have it installed with your frontend. In this case you don’t want to go to a complete build of a theme and reinstall it for every change. The trick is to create your theme and overwrite the default theme with it. You can then use the [[AppSuite:appserver|appserver]] proxy to ship your own version of the UI.
| |
| | |
| To activate a theme on the backend, you have to add it to the <code>io.ox/core/settingsOptions//themes</code> list.
| |
| | |
| ==== Example ====
| |
| | |
| Adding <pre>io.ox/core/settingsOptions//themes/unicorn=Friendship is Magic</pre> to <code>etc/settings/appsuite.properties</code> add a theme named <code>unicorn</code> with the name <code>Friendship is Magic</code> to the list of themes, a user can choose. Find the list in the <code>Settings -> Basic</code> view behind the option <code>Theme</code>.
| |
| | |
| == Theming the login page ==
| |
| | |
| The login page is a little bit special. If you don’t use the [[Open-Xchange_servlet_for_external_login_masks|form login]] (and provide your own login page), you might want to theme the login page, too. Learn how to do this here.
| |
| | |
| == Best practice ==
| |
| | |
| To be really safe, it’s best to only define your own values for the variables shown above. If this really breaks anything, we consider this a bug, please report it [https://bugs.open-xchange.com/] in our bugzilla.
| |
| | |
| Of course, using CSS in <code>style.less</code> file to define your own styles is also possible. Make sure to test your style in such cases more carefully. It is most likely safe to change minor things using this file, but if you plan to change any positions of larger elements, this might break the complete design. So please be careful when overwriting the default CSS rules.

| |
| | |
| == Caveats ==
| |
| | |
| It is '''not''' recommended to change the size of elements or their position. If you really want to do so, please check on all devices and in all browsers and make sure you didn’t break anything. You even have to be careful when changing the font, because this might have effects on positioning, too.
| |
| | |
| As mentioned before, changing colors should be safe.
