react-rating-stars-component :star:
Forked from react-stars
: https://github.com/n49/react-stars
A simple star rating component for your React projects (now with half stars and custom characters)
DEMO: https://codesandbox.io/s/elegant-mountain-w3ngk?file=/src/App.js
Get started quickly
Install react-stars package with NPM:
npm install react-rating-stars-component --save
Then in your project include the component:
import ReactStars from "react-rating-stars-component";
import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
const ratingChanged = (newRating) => {
console.log(newRating);
};
render(
<ReactStars
count={5}
onChange={ratingChanged}
size={24}
activeColor="#ffd700"
/>,
document.getElementById("where-to-render")
);
Or use other elements as icons:
We do not support CSS for other third party libraries like fontawesome in this case. So you must import it by urself.
import ReactStars from "react-rating-stars-component";
import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
const ratingChanged = (newRating) => {
console.log(newRating);
};
render(
<ReactStars
count={5}
onChange={ratingChanged}
size={24}
isHalf={true}
emptyIcon={<i className="far fa-star"></i>}
halfIcon={<i className="fa fa-star-half-alt"></i>}
fullIcon={<i className="fa fa-star"></i>}
activeColor="#ffd700"
/>,
document.getElementById("where-to-render")
);

Requirements
You will need to have React in your project in order to use the component, I didn't bundle React in the build, because it seemed like a crazy idea.
Todo
- Make better docs
- Better state management
- Write tests
