Quickstart

1. Install via npm

npm install ng-piao-liang-hanzi

2. Import 'NgPiaoLiangHanziModule'

import { NgPiaoLiangHanziModule } from 'ng-piao-liang-hanzi';
@NgModule({
  imports: [NgPiaoLiangHanziModule]
})
export class AppModule { }

3. Use 'ng-piao-liang-hanzi' to display your Chinese characters and pinyin:

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'你好。'"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

Features

Automatic pinyin

Pinyin is generated automatically by default:

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'Hello, 我是 Alexander。'"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

Custom pinyin text

Custom text can override the pinyin:

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'你好。'" [pinyin]="'Anylength isok'"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

Pinyin with numbers

By default the automatic pinyin will generate with tone symbols. To generate with pinyin numbering format, set [pinyinWithNumber]="true":

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'你好。'" [pinyinWithNumber]="true"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

To enable pinyin with numbering format globally in your project, use the global flag ENABLE_PINYIN_NUMBER_FORMAT:

import { NgPiaoLiangHanziModule } from 'ng-piao-liang-hanzi';
@NgModule({
  imports: [NgPiaoLiangHanziModule],
  providers: [{provide: 'ENABLE_PINYIN_NUMBER_FORMAT', useValue: true}]
})
export class AppModule { }

[pinyinWithNumber]="true" is then no longer needed. It is also possible to disable the number format in specific cases by setting [pinyinWithNumber]="false".

Skip pinyin for some characters

The pinyin is divided by single spaces. If the pinyin should not be entered for a character, just perform an extra space:

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'这是你的书。'" [pinyin]="'a   b'"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

For clarity purposes, you can also use _ as a placeholder for empty pinyin:

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'这是你的书。'" [pinyin]="'a _ _ b'"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

Enable alphabet for pinyin

Non-Chinese characters are skipped for pinyin by default, including alphabetical characters. To enable alphabetical characters, set [includeAlphabet]="true":

<ng-piao-liang-hanzi [chineseCharacters]="'是OK，马？'" [pinyin]="'shì O K shì'" [includeAlphabet]="true"></ng-piao-liang-hanzi>

The alphabet can be enabled for pinyin globally with the ENABLE_ALPHABET flag:

import { NgPiaoLiangHanziModule } from 'ng-piao-liang-hanzi';
@NgModule({
  imports: [NgPiaoLiangHanziModule],
  providers: [{provide: 'ENABLE_ALPHABET', useValue: true}]
})
export class AppModule { }

[includeAlphabet]="true" is then no longer needed. It is also possible to disable the alphabet in specific cases by setting [includeAlphabet]="false".

CSS styling

The Chinese characters and pinyin can have custom css styling with classes ng-piao-liang-hanzi-char and ng-piao-liang-hanzi-pinyin respectively:

.ng-piao-liang-hanzi-char {
  color: olivedrab
}

.ng-piao-liang-hanzi-pinyin {
  color: brown
}

:warning: The css styling will only work in global styles.css!
