Hi. Weird question

Is it possible, from a module (library), having MaterialTheme, to obtain the light or dark version of a MaterialTheme?

[alorma]

For example:

A module with a method that shows a given composable (via slot) with light or dark variation?

[alorma]

I have my library ComposeDebugDrawer, configured like this:

DebugDrawerLayout(
     drawerColors = YourColorScheme, // darkColors() or lightColors()
)

And I would like to always theme my drawer with the dark variation of the app theme

What you probably want is just wrapping it around MaterialTheme?

MaterialTheme(colors = darkColors()) {
    DebugDrawerLayout(...)
}

or similar

[alorma]

Yes, but how to obtain the darkColors() without recuesting it as a param ?

[jaqxues]

what is your use case? Since usually you should not pass around these theme colors, but use MaterialTheme {}

[alorma]

I have a library, that builds a debug drawer, and I would theme it as the local theme, but in dark variation

Yes, i thougt so, i just wonderd if there's a way to make it automatically

[jaqxues]

Well in that case you need it as params

[jaqxues]

I cannot think of any other way with providers etc to receive a theme with darkColors
