Installation

The easiest way to use react-multi-inline-images is to install it from npm and build it into your app with Webpack.

npm install @keyvaluesystems/react-multi-inline-images

You’ll need to install React separately since it isn't included in the package.

Usage

React Multi Inline Images can run in a very basic mode by just providing the data like given below:

import InlineImages from '@keyvaluesystems/react-multi-inline-images';

<InlineImages
  data={dataArray}
/>

The data is an array of objects with the following keys:

• name - a string that represents each user's name
• avatarUrl - a string to specify the user image

An example for data array is shown below:

const dataArray = [
  {
    name: 'Jon Dew',
    avatarUrl: 'example.svg'
  },
  {
    name: 'Jack'
  }
];

If no avatarUrl is specified for the user, following default Image will be considered.

You can specify whether to add an elivation effect or to show name on hover with the help of 'elivateOnHover' and 'nameOnHover' prop. Even if elivateOnHover is true, the effect will only be there if the corresponding user has name specified in the data object.

<InlineImages
  data={dataArray}
  elivateOnHover={true}
  nameOnHover={true}
/>

We can also control the distance between each user image with the help of spaceBetweenPics prop as follows.

<InlineImages
  data={dataArray}
  spaceBetweenPics={30}
/>
