Demo

Out of the box – plain & simple:

Explore our interactive demo for more details on customizations. The demo code can be found in the react-svg-timeline-demo repository.

Alternatively, you are free to use just the zooming & panning interaction logic, e.g. as a layer of the awesome Nivo line chart:

Installation

yarn add react-svg-timeline

npm install react-svg-timeline

Note that react and react-dom (version >=16.3) must already be installed.

Usage

This is the simplest possible way to get started:

import * as React from 'react'
import { Timeline } from 'react-svg-timeline'

export const App = () => {
  const laneId = 'demo-lane'
  const lanes = [
    {
      laneId,
      label: 'Demo Lane',
    },
  ]
  const events = [
    {
      eventId: 'event-1',
      tooltip: 'Event 1',
      laneId,
      startTimeMillis: 1167606000000,
      endTimeMillis: 1230698892000,
    },
    {
      eventId: 'event-2',
      tooltip: 'Event 2',
      laneId: laneId,
      startTimeMillis: 1399845600000,
    },
  ]
  const dateFormat = (ms: number) => new Date(ms).toLocaleString()
  return <Timeline width={600} height={300} events={events} lanes={lanes} dateFormat={dateFormat} />
}

Please check the react-svg-timeline-demo repository for a full-fledged feature demonstration.

Theming

To override the default theme, you can use the theme property.

If your project is using Material UI, the deriveTimelineTheme convenience function makes it particularly easy to use the MUI theme as a basis:

import * as React from 'react'

// MUI v4
import { useTheme } from '@material-ui/core'

// MUI v5
import { useTheme } from '@mui/material'

import { Timeline } from 'react-svg-timeline'

const App = () => {
  const materialTheme = useTheme()

  // MUI v4
  const type = materialTheme.palette.type

  // MUI v5
  const type = materialTheme.palette.mode

  const theme = deriveTimelineTheme(materialTheme.palette.mode, materialTheme)
  return <Timeline theme={theme} /** all other props here **/ />
}

If you would just like to override certain aspects of the default timeline theme, use the createTimelineTheme helper function:

const theme = createTimelineTheme({ event: { markFillColor: 'pink' } })

Library Development

Local Development

yarn start

Storybook

To run the storybook locally, execute the following command:

yarn storybook

Testing

To run the tests, execute the following command:

yarn test

Building

To build the library, execute the following command:

yarn build

Testing a release candidate

While making changes to this library in the context of a consuming project, yalc can be very handy:

In react-svg-timeline:

yalc publish

In your project consuming the library:

yalc add react-svg-timeline

Note: If you previously had react-svg-timeline added via yalc, you need to remove it first:

yalc remove react-svg-timeline
yarn install
yalc add react-svg-timeline

Publishing a release

Before publishing a release, make sure to update the version number in package.json.

git tag vX.Y.Z
(yarn npm login)
yarn npm publish
git push --tags

After publishing and pushing the tag, you can add a release on GitHub with autogenerated release notes.
