Usage

import React from 'react';
import { Parallax, Background } from 'react-parallax';

const MyComponent = () => (
  <div>
    <Parallax
      blur={10}
      bgImage={require('path/to/image.jpg')}
      bgImageAlt="the cat"
      strength={200}
    >
      Put some text content here
      or even an empty div with fixed dimensions
      to have a height for the parallax.
      <div style={{ height: '200px' }} />
    </Parallax>
    <Parallax
      blur={{ min: -15, max: 15 }}
      bgImage={require('path/to/another/image.jpg')}
      bgImageAlt="the dog"
      strength={200}
    >
      Blur transition from min to max
      <div style={{ height: '200px' }} />
    </Parallax>
    <Parallax strength={300}>
      <div>Use the background component for custom elements</div>
      <Background className="custom-bg">
        <img src="http://www.fillmurray.com/500/320" alt="fill murray" />
      </Background>
    </Parallax>
  </div>
);
export default MyComponent;

Background Component

For more flexibility and styling purposes you can add a <Background></Background> section to your Parallax Container. Child nodes inside this Background will be positioned like the bgImage behind the other children. Compared to the bgImage there is no automatic scaling (see above).

• bgHeight: set bgImage height manually - (type: String), eg. '400px', 'auto'
• strength: parallax effect strength (in pixel), default 100. this will define the amount of pixels the background image is translated - (type: Number)
