react-flip-page

DISCLAIMER: This package is in no way related to nor endorsed by Flipboard, Inc. nor flipboard.com. This is just a showcase of HTML5 & CSS3 effect implemented with React.

This package allows you to use the cool Flipboard page swipe effect in your React.js apps.

It has a responsive option, so you can possibly cover your entire page with it!

You can play with this demo.

Install

Installation is pretty straight-forward, as you just have to npm install this package:

npm install --save react-flip-page

Then, you can require the module with any way you like, let it be webpack or something else.

Usage

This package consists of one single component that does all the work. Simply throw a FlipPage component with some children that will be the content.

<FlipPage>
  <article>
    <h1>My awesome first article</h1>
    <p>My awesome first content</p>
  </article>
  <article>
    <h1>My wonderful second article</h1>
    <p>My wonderful second content</p>
  </article>
  <article>
    <h1>My excellent third article</h1>
    <p>My excellent third content</p>
  </article>
</FlipPage>

Props

There are a few properties that define the behaviour of the component, here they are:

Prop	Type	Default	Role
orientation	string	vertical	Orientation of swipes. vertical or horizontal for respectively up/down swipes and left/right swipes
uncutPages	boolean	false	If true, the pages will be allowed to overflow through the container. The original effect is to keep everything inside the container, but you can set this to true to have a more "bookish" effect.
animationDuration	number	200	Duration in ms of the fold/unfold animation
treshold	number	10	Distance in px to swipe before the gesture is activated
maxAngle	number	45	Angle of the page when there's nothing to display before/after
maskOpacity	number	0.4	Opacity of the masks that covers the underneath content
perspective	string	130em	Perspective value of the page fold effect. The bigger, the less noticeable
pageBackground	string	#fff	Background of the pages. This can be overriden in individual pages by styling the component
firstComponent	element	null	Component that will be displayed under the first page
lastComponent	element	null	Component that will be displayed under the last page
showHint	bool	false	Indicates if the component must hint the user on how it works. Setting this to true will lift the bottom of the page 1s after the component is mounted, for 1s
showSwipeHint	bool	false	Indicates if the component must hint the user on how it works. Setting this to true will show an example of gesture to switch pages
showTouchHint	bool	false	Indicates if the component must hint the user on how it works. Setting this to true will show a pointer indicating where to click to switch pages. Works with
flipOnTouch
style	object	{}	Additional style for the flipboard
height	number	480	Height for the flipboard
width	number	320	Width for the flipboard
onPageChange	function		Callback when the page has been changed. Parameters: pageIndex, direction
onStartPageChange	function		Callback when the page starts to change. Parameters: oldPageIndex, direction
onStartSwiping	function		Callback when the user starts swiping
onStopSwiping	function		Callback when the user stops swiping
className	string	''	Optional CSS class to be applied on the container
loopForever	boolean	false	If true flipping after the last page will return to the first (and visa-versa)
flipOnTouch	boolean	false	If true, the user can flip pages by touching/clicking a top/bottom or left/right zone. These zones have CSS classes: rfp-touchZone, rfp-touchZone-previous and rfp-touchZone-next so that you can style them
flipOnTouchZone	number	210	Percentage of dimensions of the zone to touch/click to flip pages
disableSwipe	boolean	false	If true, users can't use the swipe feature to switch pages while flipOnTouch is enabled. Make sure you enable flipOnTouch so they can switch pages, or provide buttons binded to Methods
responsive	boolean	false	If true, the component will be responsive, meaning it will take all the available space. Place the component in a container before to make sure it is visible
startAt	number	0	Default start position of the component

Methods

There are currently three methods that can be called on the component. To call them, you can use the ref attribute in React:

<FlipPage ref={(component) => { this.flipPage = component; }}>
  ...
</FlipPage>

this.flipPage.gotoPreviousPage();

gotoPreviousPage()

This method triggers the effect and switches to the previous page, if possible.

gotoNextPage()

This method triggers the effect and switches to the next page, if possible.

gotoPage(page)

This methods positions the component to the wanted page index. The page argument should be between 0 and the number of pages. If not, a RangeError will be thrown. Also note that this does not call the onPageChange nor the onStartPageChange callback.
