Terminal Text Component

Component for text typing animation.

Installation

Usage

Timeline

Timeline will render its items one by one in order defined by showOn and hideOn properties of items.

import {Timeline, EFFECT} from '@simpozio/terminal-text';
import {ItemComponent} from './your-custom-item-component';
import {css} from 'styled-components';

const fadeAnimation = keyframes`
  from {
    opacity: 0;
  }

  50% {
    opacity: 1;
  }

  to {
    opacity: 0;
  }
`;

const fade = css`${fadeAnimation} infinite 0.5s`;

function Component() {
  const TimelineItems = [
    {
      showOn: 1,
      hideOn: 2,
      render: () => 'Simple text example',
      delay: 1000
    },
    {
      showOn: 2,
      hideOn: 3,
      type: 'delay',
      delay: 2000
    }
    {
      showOn: 3,
      hideOn: 4,
      effect: fade,
      render: ItemComponent,
      goNext: false,
      onTypingDone: () => console.log('Timeline finished')
    },
    {
      showOn: 4,
      type: 'row',
      render: (items) => <div className="wrapper">{ items }</div>,
      items: [
        {
          render: () => 'Simple'
        },
        {
          showOn: 5,
          hideOn: 6,
          effect: EFFECT.BLINK,
          render: () => '_',
          delay: 3000
        },
        {
          showOn: 6,
          render: () => ' text example'
        },
      ]
    }
  ];

  return <Timeline items={TimelineItems} initialTime={5} startDelay={2000} />;
}

You can controls flow of Timeline by setting ref to Timeline

import {useRef} from 'react';
import {Timeline} from '@simpozio/terminal-text';
import {ItemComponent} from './your-custom-item-component';

function Component() {
  const TimelineRef = useRef(null);

  const TimelineItems = [
    {
      showOn: 1,
      hideOn: 2,
      render: () => 'Simple text example',
      delay: 1000
    }
  ];

  return <Timeline ref={TimelineRef} items={TimelineItems} />;
}

And then you can use Timeline methods:

• TimelineRef.next() - increase Timeline inner counter by 1
• TimelineRef.setTime(number) - set Timeline inner counter to passed value
• TimelineRef.getTime() - get value of Timeline inner counter

Single Terminal Text

import {TerminalText} from '@simpozio/terminal-text';

function Component() {
  const textForTyping = 'Some example text';

  return (
    <TerminalText
      className="my-terminal-text"
      startDelay={2000}
      avgTypingDelay={50}
      onTypingDone={() => console.log('typing done')}>
      {textForTyping}
    </TerminalText>
  );
}

Delay and Backspace

• Delay component will add typing delay inside target text
• Backspace component add backspace animation inside target text

import {
  TerminalText,
  Delay,
  Backspace
} from '@simpozio/terminal-text';

function Component() {
  return (
    <TerminalText>
      Some
      <Delay ms={1000} />
      Valuable
      <Backspace count={8} delay={500} />
      Example
      <Delay ms={1000} />
      Text
    </TerminalText>
  );
}

Also you can use this components in TimelineItem render function:

import {
  Timeline,
  Backspace,
  Delay
} from '@simpozio/terminal-text';
import {ItemComponent} from './your-custom-item-component';

function Component() {
  const TimelineItems = [
    {
      showOn: 1,
      render: () => (
        <div>
          Some
          <Delay ms={1000} />
          Valuable
          <Backspace count={8} delay={500} />
          Example
          <Delay ms={1000} />
          Text
        </div>
      )
    }
  ];

  return <Timeline items={TimelineItems} />;
}

Properties

Timeline

• items: TimelineItem[] - array of TimelineItems configuration objects
• startDelay: number - timeout (ms) before Timeline starts performing
• initialTime: number - number of Timeline step to start from

Timeline Item

• type: 'row' | 'delay' | undefined - type of item.
  • 'delay' - item won't render any content, just setting up delay for next step.
  • 'row' - item will render child Timeline Items, you can define wrappern component in render property
  • undefined - item will ignore repeat and items props, it will use it's render function
• goNext: boolean - if false item won't go to next step automatically. Defaults to true
• delay: number - timeout(ms) after text typed and before next step
• render: function - function for rendering child components or text, required if no type defined. Accepts items props if type of item is row
• items: TimelineItem[] - array of child TimelineItems configuration objects. Property supperted only by 'row' item type
