Emoji Clock

This is a web component for an emoji clock.

Why?

I was interested to see what the current 'native' web component situation is when no polyfills are used.

Should I use this?

It's just an experiment; so far I've only tested that it works on Chrome 47.

Installation

Install this through npm.

npm install emoji-clock

Getting Started

Register your custom element in JavaScript. I recommend using the name emoji-clock, but you can use whatever you'd like.

var emojiClock = require('emoji-clock');

document.registerElement('emoji-clock', {
  prototype: emojiClock
});

After that, you can use the element in your HTML!

<emoji-clock time="2:30"></emoji-clock>

Usage

The web component has a single custom attribute: time. The format should be hour:minute. Leading zeros on numbers are optional. For instance, two twenty can be written as 2:20 or 02:20.

Dynamically updating the attribute in JavaScript will update the emoji that is displayed.
