@visx/text
Advanced tools
@visx/text is a part of the VisX library, which provides a collection of reusable low-level visualization components for React. The @visx/text package specifically focuses on rendering text elements with various configurations, such as wrapping, truncation, and alignment, making it easier to handle text in SVG elements.
Basic Text Rendering
This feature allows you to render basic text within an SVG element. You can specify the position, font size, and color of the text.
import { Text } from '@visx/text';
function BasicText() {
return (
<svg width={500} height={500}>
<Text x={100} y={100} fontSize={16} fill="black">
Hello, VisX!
</Text>
</svg>
);
}
Text Wrapping
This feature allows you to wrap text within a specified width. This is useful for ensuring that long text strings fit within a given space.
import { Text } from '@visx/text';
function WrappedText() {
return (
<svg width={500} height={500}>
<Text x={10} y={10} width={200} fontSize={16} fill="black">
This is a long text that will wrap within the specified width.
</Text>
</svg>
);
}
Text Truncation
This feature allows you to truncate text that exceeds a specified width. This is useful for ensuring that text does not overflow its container.
import { Text } from '@visx/text';
function TruncatedText() {
return (
<svg width={500} height={500}>
<Text x={10} y={10} width={100} fontSize={16} fill="black" verticalAnchor="start" truncate>
This is a long text that will be truncated.
</Text>
</svg>
);
}
Text Alignment
This feature allows you to align text both horizontally and vertically within an SVG element. This is useful for centering text or aligning it to specific points.
import { Text } from '@visx/text';
function AlignedText() {
return (
<svg width={500} height={500}>
<Text x={250} y={250} fontSize={16} fill="black" textAnchor="middle" verticalAnchor="middle">
Centered Text
</Text>
</svg>
);
}
react-textfit is a React component that automatically adjusts the font size of text to fit within a given container. Unlike @visx/text, which focuses on SVG text rendering, react-textfit is designed for general text fitting within HTML elements.
react-svg-text is a React component for rendering text within SVG elements. It provides similar functionalities to @visx/text, such as text wrapping and alignment, but may not offer as many configuration options or integration with other visualization components.
react-text-truncate is a React component that truncates text with an ellipsis if it overflows its container. While @visx/text offers text truncation within SVG elements, react-text-truncate is designed for general use within HTML elements.
The @visx/text
provides a better SVG <Text>
component with the following features
width
prop is defined)verticalAnchor
prop)angle
prop)scaleToFit
prop)Simple demo to show off a useful feature. Since svg <text>
itself does not support
verticalAnchor
, normally text rendered at 0,0
would be outside the viewport and thus not
visible. By using <Text>
with the verticalAnchor="start"
prop, the text will now be visible as
you'd expect.
import React from 'react';
// note: react@18 syntax
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
import { Text } from '@visx/text';
const App = () => (
<svg>
<Text verticalAnchor="start">Hello world</Text>
</svg>
);
const root = createRoot(document.getElementById('root'));
root.render(<App />);
npm install --save @visx/text
