Open your project and use the command line to install the package;
yarn add svelte-range-slider-pips --dev # or
npm install svelte-range-slider-pips --save-dev # if you prefer npm
Note: Please read the upgrade guide for details, as there's some changes which might break your styling/ui.
Assuming you have a Svelte app up and running;
<script>
import RangeSlider from 'svelte-range-slider-pips';
</script>
<RangeSlider values={[50]} pips />
Svelte 5 works almost exactly the same as Svelte 4.
⚠ Note: Runes Mode -- specifically $state() -- has some issues when binding with an <input /> element.
My suggestion would be to use legacy mode if you can (not runes), or read this issue for a workaround.
⚠ Version 3 of Range Slider Pips is not compatible with Svelte 3. see below
If you're not building a svelte-app, you can use the /dist/
version of the script /dist/svelte-range-slider-pips.js and include it
with a regular <script> tag.
This should even work with jQuery.
<!-- in the <head> of your html -->
<script src="./js/vendor/svelte-range-slider-pips.js" />
<!-- in the <body> of your html -->
<div id="my-slider"></div>
<script>
// this script will be run when the DOM is ready
// and the slider is initialised
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
var mySlider = new RangeSliderPips({
target: document.querySelector('#my-slider'),
props: { values: [50], pips: true }
});
});
</script>
If you're building a bleeding-edge JS application (maybe Vue or React), you might
want to use js imports (import)
import RangeSlider from './node_modules/svelte-range-slider-pips/dist/svelte-range-slider-pips.mjs';
var mySlider = new RangeSlider({
target: node, // js reference to a DOM element
props: { values: [50], pips: true }
});
| prop | type | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| value | Number | 50 | Value to apply on the slider. |
| values | Array | [50] | Array of values to apply on the slider. Multiple values creates multiple handles. (note: A slider with range property set can only have two values max) |
| min | Number | 0 | Minimum value for the slider (should be < max) |
| max | Number | 100 | Maximum value for the slider (should be > min) |
| step | Number | 1 | Every nth value to allow handle to stop at (should be a positive value) |
| range | Boolean/String | false | Whether to style as a range picker. Use range='min' or range='max' for min/max variants |
| pushy | Boolean | false | If range is true, then this boolean decides if one handle will push the other along |
| draggy | Boolean | false | If range is true, enables dragging the range area between handles |
| rangeGapMin | Number | 0 | If range is true, sets the minimum allowed distance between handles |
| rangeGapMax | Number | Infinity | If range is true, sets the maximum allowed distance between handles |
| float | Boolean | false | Set true to add a floating label above focussed handles |
| rangeFloat | Boolean | false | If range is true, shows the range values between handles |
| vertical | Boolean | false | Make the slider render vertically (lower value on bottom) |
| pips | Boolean | false | Whether to show pips/notches on the slider |
| pipstep | Number | 1/10/20 | Every nth step to show a pip for. This has multiple defaults depending on values property |
| first | Boolean/String | false | Whether to show a pip or label for the first value on slider. Use first='label' to show a label value |
| last | Boolean/String | false | Whether to show a pip or label for the last value on slider. Use last='label' to show a label value |
| rest | Boolean/String | false | Whether to show a pip or label for all other values. Use rest='label' to show a label value |
| all | Boolean/String | false | Whether to show a pip or label for all values. Same as combining first, last and rest. Use all='label' to show a label value |
| prefix | String | "" | A string to prefix to all displayed values |
| suffix | String | "" | A string to suffix to all displayed values |
| limits | Array | [0, 100] | An array of two numbers to set a limit on the handles. This overrides min and max if set, while still using them for the range display. |
| reversed | Boolean | false | Reverse the orientation of min/max |
| hoverable | Boolean | true | Whether hover styles are enabled for both handles and pips/values |
| disabled | Boolean | false | Determine if the slider is disabled, or enabled (only disables interactions, and events) |
| id | String | "" | Give the slider a unique ID for use in styling |
| class | String | "" | Add custom CSS classes to the slider |
| style | String | undefined | Pass CSS variables or style declarations directly to the slider |
| darkmode | False/"auto"/"force" | false | Set to "auto" to automatically detect the system's dark mode, or "light" or "dark" to force a specific mode |
| ariaLabels | Array | [] | Array of strings to use for the aria-label attribute on the handles. |
| formatter | Function | (v,i,p) => v | A function to re-format values before they are displayed (v = value, i = pip index, p = percent) |
| handleFormatter | Function | formatter | A function to re-format values on the handle/float before they are displayed. Defaults to the same function given to the formatter property (v = value, i = handle index, p = percent) |
| rangeFormatter | Function | null | A function to re-format range float values (v1 = first value, v2 = second value, p1 = first percent, p2 = second percent) |
| spring | Boolean | true | Whether to enable spring animations on handles |
| springValues | Object | { stiffness: 0.15, damping: 0.4 } | Svelte spring physics object to change the behaviour of the handle when moving |
| precision | Number | 2 | Precision of the values for fixing floating errors |
| slider | Element | undefined | DOM reference for binding to the main <div /> of the component (bind:slider='ref') |

| event | example | event.detail | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| start | on:start={(e) => { ... }} | { activeHandle: Integer, value: Float, values: Float[] } | Event fired when the user begins interaction with the slider |
| change | on:change={(e) => { ... }} | { activeHandle: Integer, startValue: Float / Float[], previousValue: Float / Float[], value: Float, values: Float[] } | Event fired when the user changes the value; returns the previous value, also |
| stop | on:stop={(e) => { ... }} | { activeHandle: Integer, startValue: Float / Float[], value: Float, values: Float[] } | Event fired when the user stops interacting with slider; returns the beginning value, also |
Styling should mostly be done with CSS.
There's a bunch of css variables for controlling the colors of the elements.
And the slider is fluid horizontally, with the size of things controlled by font-size. So you may change the font-size on the .rangeSlider base
element to change the scale of everything.
If you require more fine control of the widths, heights, etc, then you may override the default css. This can be easier by using the id prop
to give your slider a unique id.
Values of labels can be styled with CSS, and the format can be modified with the formatter() function prop. And animation of the handles is
controlled by the springValues object prop.

Note: In
v4, most CSS class names have been prefixed withrsto prevent conflicts with generic CSS frameworks like DaisyUI or UnoCSS. See the upgrade guide for details.
I am very happy to accept;
But please read the CONTRIBUTING.md first.
⚠ Because of new code added in Range Slider v3, it is incompatible with Svelte version 3.
If you are unable to upgrade your project to Svelte4/Svelte5, then I suggest looking for Svelte-Range-Slider-Pips version 2.3.1 which
will not be upgraded, but it's still pretty robust. You can install it like so;
yarn add svelte-range-slider-pips@2.3.1 --dev # or
npm install svelte-range-slider-pips@2.3.1 --save-dev # if you prefer npm
I'd be super excited if you find this project useful and wish to donate a small amount for my efforts!
