Analog Clock using React

This is a customizable analog clock completely built using React. It is customizable by passing an options JSON Object to the component which allows you to modify the clock colors. It also allows you to use multiple timezones.

Demo

You can customize/view a live demo of the clock here.

Installation

Install the package using

npm install --save analog-clock-react

Usage

Import the AnalogClock component into your React Component like this

import AnalogClock from 'analog-clock-react';

Then use the AnalogClock Component like this

let options = {
    width: "300px",
    border: true,
    borderColor: "#2e2e2e",
    baseColor: "#17a2b8",
    centerColor: "#459cff",
    centerBorderColor: "#ffffff",
    handColors: {
      second: "#d81c7a",
      minute: "#ffffff",
      hour: "#ffffff"
    }
};
.....
<AnalogClock {...options} />

You can customize the clock using the different properties in the options JSON Object.

Please visit the demo page to get a live preview of the clock.

Features

• Custom Time / Timezone Support

  AnalogClock now supports using your own custom time/timezone. To enable custom time usage, set useCustomTime to true and set your own hours, minutes and seconds in the options JSON Object like below:

    let options = {
        useCustomTime: true,    // set this to true
        width: "300px",
        border: true,
        borderColor: "#2e2e2e",
        baseColor: "#17a2b8",
        centerColor: "#459cff",
        centerBorderColor: "#ffffff",
        handColors: {
          second: "#d81c7a",
          minute: "#ffffff",
          hour: "#ffffff"
        },
        "seconds": 1,   // set your
        "minutes": 10,  // own
        "hours": 22     // time here.
    };

  Once you do that, AnalogClock will expect you to give it the hours, minutes and seconds value.

  Note: You will have to use a setInterval in the component where you use <AnalogClock> to update the options object with the time that you pass. An example is given below:

  updateClock = () => {
    let ausTime = new Date().toLocaleString("en-US", { timeZone: "Australia/Brisbane" });
    let date = new Date(ausTime);
  
    this.setState({
      'options': {
        ...this.state.options,
        seconds: date.getSeconds(),
        minutes: date.getMinutes(),
        hours: date.getHours()
      }
    })
  }
  ....
  this.interval = setInterval(this.updateClock, 1000);
