Automate the styling of your PowerApps applications with ease using our Python script. This tool allows you to retrieve the JSON files of your applications and modify them to apply a personalized style.

To install this tool, simply clone this repository and install the required Python packages:

$ git clone https://github.com/JosueAbou/Mise_en_style_application_powerapps.git

There are no requirements needed to make it work, you just need to have python installed.

To use this tool, you'll need to follow these steps:

In order to use this tool, we must define beforehand the style that we would like to apply to the different components of our application. This style must be defined in a JSON file with a very specific format. Just group a set of attributes with specific values and then give them a name. This name must then be used during the development of the application in order to be able to apply the predefined style to it later. For example, here are the characteristics defined for a "Primary_button":

For the example (just below), the style we defined is in the /script/style.json file.

As explained above, the controls of the PowerApps application must be named correctly in order to be able to apply the style to them. Any control that does not respect the naming rule will not be modified. Once the application has been developed, it must be exported in .msapp format.

You must first extract from the controls directory, the file corresponding to the page you want to modify, then execute the following command:

$ python powerapps_style.py --app_file <app_file> --style_file <style_file>

Where <app_file> is the name of the file extracted from your PowerApps application, and <style_file> is the path to the JSON file that defines your custom styles.

Here is a BPMN Diagram summarizing the whole process :
