NativePHP Appearance
====================

[](#nativephp-appearance)

Forces a [NativePHP Mobile](https://nativephp.com) app into light or dark mode independent of the OS setting, or releases it back to following the system automatically.

`bg-theme-*`/`text-theme-*` classes already resolve their dark companion natively based on the OS color scheme — there is no PHP-facing API to override that, only to read it (`Native\Mobile\Facades\System::appearance()`). This plugin adds the missing write side.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- `nativephp/mobile` ^3.0 or ^4.0
- iOS 15.0+ — fully supported via `UIWindow.overrideUserInterfaceStyle`.
- Android — requires **API 31+** (`UiModeManager.setApplicationNightMode`, the only per-app override Android exposes outside of `AppCompatActivity`). Below API 31, `setMode()` silently no-ops rather than partially applying.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require smronju/nativephp-appearance
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=nativephp-plugins-provider
php artisan native:plugin:register smronju/nativephp-appearance
```

Then rebuild: `php artisan native:run`.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use Smronju\NativephpAppearance\Facades\NativephpAppearance;

NativephpAppearance::setMode('dark');   // force dark
NativephpAppearance::setMode('light');  // force light
NativephpAppearance::setMode('system'); // follow the OS again
```

Fire-and-forget: there's no event to listen for, and no result to branch on — either the override applies (iOS always; Android on API 31+) or the call is a safe no-op (Android below API 31).
