The CSS numeric factory functions, such as CSS.em() and CSS.turn() are methods that return CSSUnitValues with the value being the numeric argument and the unit being the name of the method used. These functions create new numeric values less verbosely than using the CSSUnitValue.CSSUnitValue() constructor.

Syntax

CSS.number(number);
CSS.percent(number);

// <length>
CSS.em(number);
CSS.ex(number);
CSS.ch(number);
CSS.ic(number);
CSS.rem(number);
CSS.lh(number);
CSS.rlh(number);
CSS.vw(number);
CSS.vh(number);
CSS.vi(number);
CSS.vb(number);
CSS.vmin(number);
CSS.vmax(number);
CSS.cm(number);
CSS.mm(number);
CSS.Q(number);
CSS.in(number);
CSS.pt(number);
CSS.pc(number);
CSS.px(number);

// <angle>
CSS.deg(number);
CSS.grad(number);
CSS.rad(number);
CSS.turn(number);

// <time>
CSS.s(number);
CSS.ms(number);

// <frequency>
CSS.Hz(number);
CSS.kHz(number);

// <resolution>
CSS.dpi(number);
CSS.dpcm(number);
CSS.dppx(number);

// <flex>
CSS.fr(number);

Examples

We use the CSS.vmax() numeric factory function to create a CSSUnitValue:

let height = CSS.vmax(50);

console.log( height );       // CSSUnitValue {value: 50, unit: "vmax"}
console.log( height.value )  // 50
console.log( height.unit )   // vmax

In this example, we set the margin on our element using theCSS.px() factory function:

myElement.attributeStyleMap.set('margin', CSS.px(40));
let currentMargin = myElement.attributeStyleMap.get('margin');
console.log(currentMargin.value, currentMargin.unit); // 40, 'px'
