A component for React that renders paragraph or list item tags full of lorem ipsum placeholder text.
Install via npm:
% npm install react-lorem-componentThis 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>.
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.
