How can i be able to apply style on template literals

Question

I am using template literals to show my data in react, but I want to style that email, how can I be able to apply inline style on that template literal, is there any possibility to do it? {`${eachCustomer?.name} <${eachCustomer?.email}>`}

Answer 1

Template literals output strings. Styles apply to elements. The idea of applying style to a template literal doesn't make sense.

If you want to apply styles, then create elements. Use JSX. eg

return <>
    {eachCustomer?.name} &lt;<StyledEmailComponent>{eachCustomer?.email}</StyledEmailComponent>&gt;
</>;

Answer 2

Try this

{`${eachCustomer?.name} ${eachCustomer?.email ? <span style={{ color: 'red' }}>{eachCustomer.email}</span> : null}`}

Answer 3

I'd like to leave this answer here for those looking to style dynamic strings made using template literals. It's possible to use a tag function and assign a css class only to the variables in the template string, thus styling dynamic values only.

export const highlight = (strings: TemplateStringsArray, ...values: (string | number)[]) => {
  let str = '';
  strings.forEach((string, i) => {
    str += `${string} <span class='hl'>${values[i] || ''}</span>`;
  });
  return str;
};

You can then use it like this in React:

  <p
     dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{
       __html: highlight`User ${userAddress} claimed ${tokenAmount} ${token.symbol}.`
     }}
  />

This article by Wes Bos helped me solve that.
