React Lorem Component
A component for React that renders paragraph or list item tags full of lorem ipsum placeholder text.
Installation
Install via npm:
% npm install react-lorem-component
Usage
This library provides a React component named Lorem
which renderes pseudo-random lorem ipsum text.
var React = require('react');
var Lorem = require('react-lorem-component');
var MyComponent = React.createClass({
render: function() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Lorem Ipsum</h1>
<Lorem />
</div>
);
}
});
The above <Lorem />
tag by default renders five paragraphs of lorem wrapped in a <div>
.
Configuration Options
You can pass the following props to the Lorem
component to fine-tune the output.
Prop | Default | Description
------------------- |:------------------:| ------------
mode | 'paragraphs' | if set to 'list'
, instead of <p>
tags wrapped in a <div>
it renders <li>
s wrapped in an <ul>
ordered | false | if mode
is set to 'list'
and this prop has a truthy value, the list items are wrapped in an <ol>
tag
seed | 0 | the seed of the random number generator used for generating lorem text; changing this to a different natural number generates a different text
count | 5 | number of paragraphs to generate
sentenceLowerBound | 5 | minimum words per sentence
sentenceUpperBound | 15 | maximum words per sentence
paragraphLowerBound | 3 | minimum sentences per paragraph
paragraphUpperBound | 7 | maximum sentences per paragraph
format | 'html' | plain text or html
words | ['ad','dolor',...] | custom word dictionary
The last seven properties are send directly to the lorem-ipsum node module which is used internally to generate the lorem text.
Other properties you pass (eg. className
) are transferred to the wrapping tag.
