react-shave v1.0.1

React Shave

This component is a simple rewrite of the Shave library.

It allows you to add ellipsis to multi line text.
It doesn't make use of the real Shave library, everything has been re-implemented to limit the access to the DOM directly to let React manage it.

The component is very small and concise, take a look in the /lib folder. 🙂

Demo

Just a small demo of the component:

Installation

npm install --save react-shave

or

yarn add react-shave

Usage

<Shave maxHeight={70}>
  {someLongTextHere}
</Shave>

Properties

React Shave accepts few properties:

• maxHeight: required to know the desired max height of the component;
• tag: by default is p, but you can define any HTML block tag you prefer;
• character: by default is ellipsis (…) but you can define any string you prefer;
