Mixins to get values from a component theme that takes a token as parameter, for example:
p {
color: @include mat.button-get(text-label-text-color);
}
it would generate:
p {
color: var(--mdc-outlined-button-label-text-color, var(--mat-sys-primary)); // <== Actual value used for text-button
}
Ideally, we would have as many mixins as there are components (+core) and we could use the same tokens as the mat.<component>-overrides mixins.
The mat.<component>-get mixin name is a proposal, open to suggestions.
Use Case
I have a custom component and I want to apply the same style as a material component. I also want to make sure that they are always in sync when I change my theme.
For example, I want to have a text <p> with the same font color as my mat-button next to it.
For now, I need to rely on private CSS variables to do that, which is not ideal for maintainability.
