d3-clock v0.1.5

D3 Clock

An analogue clock with multiple faces, based on d3.

Credits go to Daniel Pradilla, who created the original d3clock.

I've only:

• added the option to provide a time function that specifies the time (e.g. for simulation)
• converted d3 from v3 to v5
• converted the JavaScript to TypeScript
• refactored the clock faces to separate files, so you only load faces that you will be using.
• removed some redundant computations and code
• fixed some bugs (e.g. the SBB clock added new circle elements on every clock tick, roman numeral IV...)
• published it to npm.

Usage:

Call d3clock(config) for each clock instance e.g.:

import { d3clock, sbb } from 'd3-clock';

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
  d3clock({
    // Parent div to put the clock in
    target: '#sbb',
    // Width of the clock
    width: 600,
    // Fixed time
    // date:'Mon May 25 2015 10:09:37',
    // Time zone offset
    TZOffset: { hours: 0 },
    // Clock face, e.g. sbb, braun, modern, or classic, must be imported
    face: sbb
  });
});

You can create several instances in a page (for showing multiple time zones, for example). If you send a date value in the config object, it shows a fixed time (good for testing).

Available clock faces

1. sbb: The famous Swiss Railway Clock
2. modern: A somewhat modern/minimalist face
3. classic: A classical face with roman numerals
4. braun: A Braun BN0021-ish face
