import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import Timeline from 'react-image-timeline';
require('react-image-timeline/dist/timeline.css'); // .scss also available

const events = [
    {
        date: new Date(2013, 9, 27),
        text: "Sed leo elit, pellentesque sit amet congue quis, ornare nec lorem.",
        title: "Cairo, Egypt",
        buttonText: 'Click Me',
        imageUrl: "http://github.com/aaron9000/react-image-timeline/blob/master/src/assets/cairo.jpg?raw=true",
        onClick: console.log,
    }
];

ReactDOM.render(<Timeline events={events} />, document.getElementById('root'));

Customization

Custom Styles

To customize the timeline, add your own CSS to override the default styles.

Event Metadata

To pass extra data into custom components, use extras on TimelineEvent.

Custom Dot Pattern

The dots are defined in CSS using a base64-encoded image. Encode a new image and override the corresponding CSS class.

Custom Components

For more advanced customization, you can pass in custom components to replace the defaults. Custom components will be passed a TimelineEvent model in props.

const CustomHeader = (props) => {

    const {title, extras} = props.event;
    const {customField} = extras;

    return <div className="custom-header">
        <h1>{title}</h1>
        <p>{customField}</p>
    </div>;
};

ReactDOM.render(<Timeline events={events} customComponents={{header: CustomHeader}}/>, document.getElementById('root'));
