Using the Dark CSS classes in HTML
<h5 class="mb-3">You can keep a style constant regardless of current (light or dark) mode</h5>
<p>If you want a component to retain it’s color (light or dark) as it is regardless of the current mode, you can use the following classes -</p>
<p> <code>[data-bs-theme="light"]</code> - It will keep the color light even if the current mode is dark</p>
<p> <code>[data-bs-theme="dark"]</code> - It will keep the color dark even if the current mode is light</p>
<p>The following two examples illustrate the color persistency -</p>
<div class="row gx-3">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<h5>Keep the color light even if the current mode is dark</h5>
<div class="card bg-body-highlight" data-bs-theme="light">
<div class="card-body">
<p class="mb-0 text-body-tertiary"><b>This element will retain its color if you switch between light and dark modes.</b></p>

<h6 class="fs-8 mt-4">Override Background and Text color only for dark mode</h6>

<ul>
<li> <code>dark__bg-* </code></li>
<li><code>dark__text-* </code></li>
</ul>
<p>The following element illustrates the example:</p>

Emit JavaScript event on color scheme change
<p>When you switch between the dark and light mode, or change any settings from the global theme config at runtime, we emit an event <code>clickControl</code>.<br />We used this event to update colors using JavaScript. For example, the charts change their colors using this event. You can catch and use this event with the following code snippet:</p><pre><code class="lang-js">const themeController = document.body;
themeController.addEventListener(
"clickControl",
({ detail: { control, value } }) => {
if (control === "phoenixTheme") {
// value will be localStorage theme value (dark/light/auto)
const mode = value === 'auto' ? window.phoenix.utils.getSystemTheme() : value;
console.log(mode)
// your code here
}
}
);</code></pre>
