fancy-textfill v1.2.5

FancyTextFill

Fast implementation for resizing text to fill its container. It computes the optimal font-size needed to match a text to specific width and height. It's also available as a jquery plugin.

It's really fast. See for yourself. :metal: Demo

Install

npm install --save fancy-textfill
# or you can use yarn (yarn add fancy-textfill)

Example

<!-- In case you're using it as a jquery plugin -->
<script src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/fancy-textfill/dist/fancy-text-fill.jQuery.js"></script>
<!-- Or you can use it without jquery, by using https://unpkg.com/fancy-textfill/dist/fancy-text-fill.js -->
<!-- Example setup -->
<style>
  .container {
    width: 200px;
    height: 50px;
  }
  .myText {
    display: block;
  }
</style>
<div class="container">
  <span class="myText">Hello darkness, my old friend.</span>
</div>
<div class="container">
  <span class="myText">I've come to talk with you again.</span>
</div>

You can either use it on bare dom elements or on jquery objects.

// Without jquery
document.getElementsByClassName('myText')
  .forEach(function (el) {
    fancyTextFill.fillParentContainer(el, {
      minFontSize: 6,
      maxFontSize: 26
    });
  });
// With jquery
$('.myText').fancyTextFill({
  minFontSize: 6,
  maxFontSize: 26
});

You can also use it as a module. You can import it like so:

// Without jquery
import { fillParentContainer } from 'fancy-textfill';
// Or const { fillParentContainer } = require('fancy-textfill');
fillParentContainer(el, {
  minFontSize: 6,
  maxFontSize: 26
});

// as a jquery plugin
import 'fancy-textfill/es2015/jquery.plugin';
// Or require('fancy-textfill/es2015/jquery.plugin');
$('.myText').fancyTextFill({
 minFontSize: 6,
 maxFontSize: 26
});
