# React Split Flap Display

A React component that mimics a Split-Flap/Solari display, cos I like Solari boards & wanted to practice creating NPM modules.

[![NPM](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/react-split-flap-display.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-split-flap-display)

[Live Demo + Docs](http://robonyong.github.io/react-split-flap-display/)

## Install

```bash
npm install --save react-split-flap-display
```

## Usage

```jsx
import React from 'react';

import SplitFlapDisplay from 'react-split-flap-display';

export default function Display() {
return ;
}
```

### Props

| Key | Type | Default | Description |
| -------------- | --------------------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| background | string | '#000000' | Hex or rgb() string for the display's background |
| borderColor | string | '#dddddd' | Hex or rgb() string for the color of the border between characters |
| borderWidth | string | '1px' | Any valid CSS width value for the width of the border between characters |
| characterSet | Array of strings (required) | _null_ | The array of characters for the display to flip through |
| characterWidth | string | '1em' | Any valid CSS width value for the width of each character. Useful with non-monospaced fonts |
| minLength | number | 0 | Minimum # of characters in the display |
| padDirection | string | 'left' | If minLength > number of characters currently displayed, append blank characters to left or right side |
| splitWidth | string | '1px' | Any valid CSS width value for the width of the "axis" between the top and bottom of a character |
| step | number | 200 | Sets the speed (ms) of flips |
| textColor | string | '#dddddd' | Hex or rgb() string for color of the display characters |
| value | string (required) | '' | The string of characters to display or flip to |
| withSound | boolean or string | _null_ | Optionally load and play a sound with every flip.
Sound duration must be less than or equal to `step` duration.
`true` loads an mp3 I recorded of a single Vestaboard bit flipping |

For `characterSet`, there are three convenience constants that ship with this component from `react-split-flap-display/constants` (you can see how they might be used in the example):

`NUMERIC`: `[0-9]`\
`ALPHA`: whitespace `' '` + `[A-Z]`\
`PUNCTUATION`: the non-alphanumeric characters found in a [Vesta Board](https://www.vestaboard.com/ces/)

This component inherits the font family and font size from its parents. If you want to control those properties specifically for this display, wrap it in a container or pass a `className` with those properties defined.
