How to Use

jQuery

Put quotes.json somewhere on your server.

<div id="quote-roulette"></div

var quoteRoulette = $('#quote-roulette');
var allQuotes = null;

$.getJSON('/quotes.json', function(data) {
  allQuotes = data.quotes;
  updateQuote();
});

quoteRoulette.click(function(e) {
  e.preventDefault();

  updateQuote();
});

function updateQuote(obj) {
  var index = getRandomInt(0, allQuotes.length);

  quoteRoulette.text(allQuotes[index].quote);
}

// returns an integer, min <= integer < max
function getRandomInt(min, max) {
  min = Math.ceil(min);
  max = Math.floor(max);

  return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min)) + min;
}
