A signature board component for react. Implemented by referring to https://github.com/szimek/signature_pad. Compatible with all modern browsers. In order to make the component work for IE8, import excanvas at the top of your html file.
To build the examples locally, first clone the repository, then run:
npm install
npm start
Then open localhost:8000
in a browser.
The easiest way to use react-signature is to install it from NPM and include it in your own React build process (using Browserify, Webpack, etc).
You can also use the standalone build by including dist/react-signature.js
in your page. If you use this, make sure you have already included React, and it is available as a global variable.
npm install react-signature --save
To initialize:
var ReactSignature = require('react-signature');
<ReactSignature ref="signatureboard"/>
...
var signaturepad = this.refs.signatureboard;
/*
* Method that converts the signature image to URL.
* Returns the URL.
*/
signatureboard.toDataURL();
/*
* Method that takes a base 64 string (URL) and shows it as an image on the canvas.
*/
signatureboard.fromDataURL(base64String);
/*
* Method to clear the signature board.
*/
signatureboard.handleClear();
React class properties:
width - width of the signature canvas. Default is 450.
height - height of the signature canvas. Default is 300.
NOTE: The source code for the component is in src
. A transpiled CommonJS version (generated with Babel) is available in lib
for use with node.js, browserify and webpack. A UMD bundle is also built to dist
, which can be included without the need for any build system.
To build, watch and serve the examples (which will also watch the component source), run npm start
. If you just want to watch changes to src
and rebuild lib
, run npm run watch
(this is useful if you are working with npm link
).
