Is it possible to use the spread operator with a styled component in React Native?
I have this component:
const StyledHeaderText = styled.Text` fontFamily: ${props => props.theme.font}; fontSize: ${props => props.theme.fontSizeSubtitle}; color: ${props => (props.lightMode) ? props.theme.fontColor : props.theme.fontPrimaryColor} `;
But lets say that in my theme, I have an object that has both the fontFamily and the fontSize, and I re use all over the app. I would like to be able to know if I can do something like this, which currently it is not working:
const StyledHeaderText = styled.Text` ...${props => props.theme.fontHeader}; color: ${props => (props.lightMode) ? props.theme.fontColor : props.theme.fontPrimaryColor} `;
This would be useful too setting up elevation in iOS for example, since I have to setup 4 styles.
Thanks

You can use the css helper function to generate the specific css and return it as a template literal.
import styled, {css} from 'styled-components/native' const GlobalStyles = css` fontFamily: ${props => props.theme.font}; fontSize: ${props => props.theme.fontSizeSubtitle}; ` const StyledHeaderText = styled.Text` ${GlobalStyles} // Other Styles `
or conditionally as
const StyledHeaderText = styled.Text` ${props => props.theme.fontHeader ? GlobalStyles : 'fontSize: 14'} // Other Styles `
