Installation

Add lucify-bar-chart-range-selector along with its dependencies (React.js and D3.js) to your project's dependencies:

Require it in your Javascript:

ES5

var LucifyBarChartRangeSelector = require('lucify-bar-chart-range-selector').default;

Development

Build the Javascript files into lib/ with:

$ npm run build

Or build the development version and start watching for changes with:

$ npm run dev

To serve the example page on port 3000 and see changes live, start Gulp:

$ gulp

Then point your browser to http://localhost:3000/

Developing as part of a project

To develop this component in tandem with a parent project using npm link, first link this project to the parent project:

$ cd path_to_this_project
$ npm link
$ cd path_to_parent_project
$ npm link lucify-bar-chart-range-selector

Then link the parent project's React folder to this project:

$ cd path_to_parent_project
$ cd node_modules/react
$ npm link
$ cd path_to_this_project
$ npm link react

This is needed in order to prevent React from being loaded twice.

Note that if you do not use Webpack to build your parent project, the development build will likely not work. You can build the production version while watching for changes by running node_modules/.bin/webpack -p --watch.
