Usage
Live demo at: https://chrisuser.github.io/react-usage-bar/
The usage bar needs to receive an array of items. In order to display all the values correctly every item should follow this interface:
Item type
| Attribute | Type | Required | |
| ------------ | ------ | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| value | number | Yes | |
| name | string | Yes | |
| color | string | No | Supports hex, rgb, hsl, named colors, and CSS gradients |
| className | string | No | |
| dotClassName | string | No |
|
The value attribute indicates the amount of space taken up by the sector with a specific name. The color property can be utilized to define the background color of that particular portion in the bar. It also supports CSS gradients like linear-gradient(90deg, #4facfe, #00f2fe).
To further customize the sector element, you can apply your own CSS classes or Tailwind classes using the className attribute.
In case you are using the compact layout and have not specified a color value, you can customize the dotClassName similarly to the className attribute.
The defined
colorproperty value will have a priority on the background color defined in theclassNameand/ordotClassNameones.
It is recommended to use exclusivelycoloror one of the two other properties per item.
Example
import UsageBar from 'react-usage-bar'
import 'react-usage-bar/dist/index.css'
const App = () => {
const itemsToDisplay = [
{
name: 'UI',
value: 10,
color: '#000000'
},
{
name: 'Photos',
value: 30
},
{
name: 'Videos',
value: 15
},
{
name: 'System Data',
value: 33
},
{
name: 'Other',
value: 8
}
]
return <UsageBar items={itemsToDisplay} total={100} showFallbackColors />
}
export default AppThe total prop is also required.
TypeScript
The Item and UsageBarProps types are exported and can be imported for use in your own code:
import UsageBar, { type Item, type UsageBarProps } from 'react-usage-bar'
const items: Item[] = [
{ name: 'Photos', value: 30, color: '#E85D04' },
{ name: 'Videos', value: 15 }
