Inject CSS into the DOM.

To begin, you'll need to install style-loader:

npm install --save-dev style-loader

It's recommended to combine style-loader with the css-loader

Then add the loader to your webpack config. For example:

style.css

body {
  background: green;
}

component.js

import './style.css';

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader'],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Type: String Default: styleTag

Allows to setup how styles will be injected into the DOM.

Possible values:

styleTag
singletonStyleTag
lazyStyleTag
lazySingletonStyleTag
linkTag

Automatically injects styles into the DOM using multiple <style></style>. It is default behaviour.

component.js

import './styles.css';

Example with c Locals (CSS Modules):

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from './styles.css';

const divElement = document.createElement('div');
divElement.className = styles['my-class'];

All locals (class names) stored in imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          // The `injectType`  option can be avoided because it is default behaviour
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { injectType: 'styleTag' } },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader inject styles like:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>
<style>
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

Automatically injects styles into the DOM using one <style></style>.

⚠ Source maps do not work.

component.js

import './styles.css';

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from './styles.css';

const divElement = document.createElement('div');
divElement.className = styles['my-class'];

All locals (class names) stored in imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'style-loader',
            options: { injectType: 'singletonStyleTag' },
          },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader inject styles like:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

Injects styles into the DOM using multiple <style></style> on demand. We recommend following .lazy.css naming convention for lazy styles and the .css for basic style-loader usage (similar to other file types, i.e. .lazy.less and .less). When you lazyStyleTag value the style-loader injects the styles lazily making them useable on-demand via style.use() / style.unuse().

⚠️ Behavior is undefined when unuse is called more often than use. Don't do that.

component.js

import styles from './styles.lazy.css';

styles.use();
// For removing styles you can use
// styles.unuse();

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from './styles.lazy.css';

styles.use();

const divElement = document.createElement('div');
divElement.className = styles.locals['my-class'];

All locals (class names) stored in locals property of imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        exclude: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader'],
      },
      {
        test: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { injectType: 'lazyStyleTag' } },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader inject styles like:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>
<style>
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

Injects styles into the DOM using one <style></style> on demand.

component.js

import styles from './styles.css';

styles.use();
// For removing styles you can use
// styles.unuse();

component-with-css-modules.js

import styles from './styles.lazy.css';

styles.use();

const divElement = document.createElement('div');
divElement.className = styles.locals['my-class'];

All locals (class names) stored in locals property of imported object.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        exclude: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader'],
      },
      {
        test: /\.lazy\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { injectType: 'lazyStyleTag' } },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate this:

<style>
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
  .bar {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>

Injects styles into the DOM using multiple <link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/file.css"> .

ℹ️ The loader will dynamically insert the <link href="path/to/file.css" rel="stylesheet"> tag at runtime via JavaScript. You should use MiniCssExtractPlugin if you want to include a static <link href="path/to/file.css" rel="stylesheet">.

import './styles.css';
import './other-styles.css';

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.link\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { injectType: 'linkTag' } },
          { loader: 'file-loader' },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate this:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/style.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/other-styles.css" />

Type: Object Default: {}

If defined, the style-loader will attach given attributes with their values on <style> / <link> element.

component.js

import style from './file.css';

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { attributes: { id: 'id' } } },
          { loader: 'css-loader' },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

<style id="id"></style>

Type: String|Function Default: head

By default, the style-loader appends <style>/<link> elements to the end of the style target, which is the <head> tag of the page unless specified by insert. This will cause CSS created by the loader to take priority over CSS already present in the target. You can use other values if the standard behavior is not suitable for you, but we do not recommend doing this. If you target an iframe make sure you have sufficient access rights, the styles will be injected into the content document head.

Allows to setup custom query selector where styles inject into the DOM.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'style-loader',
            options: {
              insert: 'body',
            },
          },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

A new <style>/<link> elements will be inserted into at bottom of body tag.

Allows to override default behavior and insert styles at any position.

⚠ Do not forget that this code will be used in the browser and not all browsers support latest ECMA features like let, const, arrow function expression and etc, we recommend use only ECMA 5 features, but it is depends what browsers you want to support ⚠ Do not forget that some doom methods may not be available in older browsers, we recommended use only DOM core level 2 properties, but it is depends what browsers you want to support

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'style-loader',
            options: {
              insert: function insertAtTop(element) {
                var parent = document.querySelector('head');
                // eslint-disable-next-line no-underscore-dangle
                var lastInsertedElement =
                  window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader;

                if (!lastInsertedElement) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, parent.firstChild);
                } else if (lastInsertedElement.nextSibling) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, lastInsertedElement.nextSibling);
                } else {
                  parent.appendChild(element);
                }

                // eslint-disable-next-line no-underscore-dangle
                window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader = element;
              },
            },
          },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Insert styles at top of head tag.

This setting is primarily used as a workaround for css clashes when using one or more DllPlugin's. base allows you to prevent either the app's css (or DllPlugin2's css) from overwriting DllPlugin1's css by specifying a css module id base which is greater than the range used by DllPlugin1 e.g.:

webpack.dll1.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader'],
      },
    ],
  },
};

webpack.dll2.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { base: 1000 } },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

webpack.app.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          { loader: 'style-loader', options: { base: 2000 } },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader automatically inject source maps when previous loader emit them. Therefore, to generate source maps, set the sourceMap option to true for the previous loader.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          'style-loader',
          { loader: 'css-loader', options: { sourceMap: true } },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

There are two ways to work with nonce:

using the attributes option
using the __webpack_nonce__ variable

⚠ the attributes option takes precedence over the __webpack_nonce__ variable

component.js

import './style.css';

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'style-loader',
            options: {
              attributes: {
                nonce: '12345678',
              },
            },
          },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate:

<style nonce="12345678">
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

create-nonce.js

__webpack_nonce__ = '12345678';

component.js

import './create-nonce.js';
import './style.css';

Alternative example for require:

component.js

__webpack_nonce__ = '12345678';

require('./style.css');

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader'],
      },
    ],
  },
};

The loader generate:

<style nonce="12345678">
  .foo {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

Inserts styles at top of head tag.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'style-loader',
            options: {
              insert: function insertAtTop(element) {
                var parent = document.querySelector('head');
                var lastInsertedElement =
                  window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader;

                if (!lastInsertedElement) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, parent.firstChild);
                } else if (lastInsertedElement.nextSibling) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, lastInsertedElement.nextSibling);
                } else {
                  parent.appendChild(element);
                }

                window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader = element;
              },
            },
          },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

Inserts styles before #id element.

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/i,
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'style-loader',
            options: {
              insert: function insertBeforeAt(element) {
                const parent = document.querySelector('head');
                const target = document.querySelector('#id');

                const lastInsertedElement =
                  window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader;

                if (!lastInsertedElement) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, target);
                } else if (lastInsertedElement.nextSibling) {
                  parent.insertBefore(element, lastInsertedElement.nextSibling);
                } else {
                  parent.appendChild(element);
                }

                window._lastElementInsertedByStyleLoader = element;
              },
            },
          },
          'css-loader',
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};
