This project is a modified version of lottie-react, which uses just the light version of lottie. This saves significant size in your end bundles.

This project is meant to give developers full control over Lottie instance with minimal implementation by wrapping lottie-web in a Component or Hook that can be easily used in React applications.

Installation

  1. Make sure you have the peer-dependencies installed: react and react-dom.

    Note: This library is using React Hooks so the minimum version required for both react and react-dom is v16.8.0.

  2. Install lottie-light-react using yarn

    yarn add lottie-light-react

    or npm

    npm i lottie-light-react

Usage

Using the component (try it)

import React from "react";
import Lottie from "lottie-light-react";
import groovyWalkAnimation from "./groovyWalk.json";

const App = () => <Lottie animationData={groovyWalkAnimation} loop={true} />;

export default App;

Using the Hook (try it)

import React from "react";
import { useLottie } from "lottie-light-react";
import groovyWalkAnimation from "./groovyWalk.json";

const App = () => {
  const options = {
    animationData: groovyWalkAnimation,
    loop: true
  };

  const { View } = useLottie(options);

  return <>{View}</>;
};

export default App;
