Edit JavaFX CSS at runtime

问题

I'm creating a CSS stylesheet for a JavaFX 8 application.

I'm repeating these steps several times:

Edit the CSS
Run the application and see the changes
Stop the application

I found this approach very time-consuming and looking for something smarter.

Is it possibile to edit the CSS of my JavaFX application while running and see the result in real-time?

I'm looking for something like the Inspect tool of Google Chrome.

This can be partially reached by using Oracle Scene Builder. In fact I can load a CSS file and run the preview. Any change to the CSS file is correctly shown in the preview without the need to restart.

Unfortunately that's just a preview: many components are empty/uninitialized. Sure this is anyway very helpful, but many refinements require the real application running.

回答1:

You will have to change using getStylesheets() / setStyle() etc.

In the example below I had to use a temp file as I am changing the CSS of the scene, when using into single components this is not necessary as you can change directly in the components.

You may download this example on gist.

Test.java

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Test extends Application{

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
        FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("doc.fxml"));
        Parent root = (Parent)loader.load();
        CSSController myController = loader.getController();
        Scene scene = new Scene(root);
        myController.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }

}

public class CSSController implements Initializable{

    @FXML TextArea cssContent;
    @FXML Button defineCSSButton;
    @Override
    public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle resources) {
        defineCSSButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>(){
            @Override
            public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
                String css = cssContent.getText();
                try{
                    File temp = new File("tempfile.css"); 
                    temp.delete();
                    temp.createNewFile();
                    BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(temp));
                    bw.write(css);
                    bw.close();
                    String url = "tempfile.css";
                    scene.getStylesheets().add(temp.toURI().toString());
                }catch(Exception e){
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        });    
    }
    public void setScene(Scene scene) { this.scene = scene; }
}
