Please make sure you wrap the component in a container that has a width
and height
.
When no mode
is specified, the component defaults to HORIZONTAL
mode. Please check props for all the available options.
import React from "react"
import { Chrono } from "react-chrono";
const Home = () => {
const items = [{
title: "May 1940",
cardTitle: "Dunkirk",
cardSubtitle:"Men of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) wade out to..",
media: {
type: "IMAGE",
source: {
url: "http://someurl/image.jpg"
}
}
}, ...];
return (
<div style={{ width: "500px", height: "400px" }}>
<Chrono items={items} />
</div>

}
To render the timeline vertically use the VERTICAL
mode
<div style={{ width: "500px", height: "950px" }}>
<chrono
items={items}
mode="VERTICAL"
/>
</div>
In VERTICAL_ALTERNATING

<div style={{ width: "500px", height: "950px" }}>
<chrono
items={items}

The timeline can be navigated via keyboard.
- For
HORIZONTAL
mode use your LEFT RIGHT arrow keys for navigation. - For
VERTICAL
orVERTICAL_ALTERNATING
mode, the timeline can be navigated via the UP DOWN arrow keys. - To easily jump to the first item or the last item in the timeline, use HOME or END keys.
To disable keyboard navigation set disableNavOnKey
to true.
<chrono items={items} disableNavOnKey />
With the scrollable prop, you can enable scrolling on both VERTICAL
and VERTICAL_ALTERNATING
modes.
<chrono items={items} scrollable />
The scrollbar is not shown by default. To enable the scrollbar, pass an object with prop scrollbar
to scrollable
prop.
<chrono items={items} scrollable={{scrollbar: true}} />
Both images and videos can be embedded in the timeline. Just add the media
attribute to the Timeline Item model and the component will take care of the rest.
{
title: "May 1940",
cardTitle: "Dunkirk",
media: {
name: "dunkirk beach",
source: {
url: "http://someurl/image.jpg"
},
type: "IMAGE"
}
}
Videos start playing automatically when active and will be automatically paused when not active. Like images, videos are also automatically hidden when not in the visible viewport of the container.
{
title: "7 December 1941",
cardTitle: "Pearl Harbor",
media: {
source: {
url: "/pearl-harbor.mp4",
type: "mp4"
},
type: "VIDEO",
name: "Pearl Harbor"
}
}
Slideshow can be enabled by setting the slideShow
prop to true. You can also set an optional slideItemDuration
that sets the time delay between cards.
setting this prop enables the play button in the timeline control panel.
<chrono items={items} slideShow slideItemDuration={4500} />
The itemWidth
prop can be used to set the width of each individual timeline sections. This setting is applicable only for the HORIZONTAL
mode.
Customize colors with theme
prop.
<chrono items={items} theme={{primary: "red", secondary: "blue" }} />
