Cool Speedometer 😎

If you are tired of all those boring speedometers for react, have a look at this one. This is different. This is cool.

Usage

Default speedometer

import Speedometer, {
  Background,
  Arc,
  Needle,
  Progress,
  Marks,
  Indicator,
} from 'react-speedometer';

// a few lines later ...

<Speedometer
  value={128}
  fontFamily='squada-one'
>
  <Background />
  <Arc/>
  <Needle/>
  <Progress/>
  <Marks/>
  <Indicator/>
</Speedometer>

That's it, you can play around changing some of the components inside <Speedometer>. Take in mind the order of them matters: <Background> is first because it is meant to be behind all other components.

sizing

By default, the size of the component is 250. You can resize it by passing a different width. You can also change the height, if you need a proportion other than 1:1.


Examples

Playing with angle

Half speedometer

<Speedometer
  value={54}
  max={80}
  angle={160}
  fontFamily='squada-one'
>
  <Background angle={180} />
  <Arc/>
  <Needle/>
  <Progress/>
  <Marks/>
  <Indicator>
    {(value, textProps) => (
      <Text
        {...textProps}
        fontSize={60}
        fill="#555"
        x={250 / 2}
        y={210}
        textAnchor="middle"
        fontFamily='squada-one'
      >
        {value}k/m
      </Text>
    )}
  </Indicator>
</Speedometer>

Rotated

Changing rotation, step, the looking of <Needle/>, and adding <DangerPath/>:

Rotated speedometer

<Speedometer
  value={5}
  max={11}
  fontFamily='squada-one'
>
  <Background />
  <Arc arcWidth={4} />
  <Needle
    baseOffset={40}
    circleRadius={30}
  />
  <DangerPath/>
  <Progress arcWidth={10} />
  <Marks step={1} />
</Speedometer>

When I said "more customization than you'll use", I meant it.

Custom marks

Pass a function as children to render your own marks. This function receives:

  • coordinates
    Coordinates of the current line: { x1, y1, x2, y2 }. Either pass them to a <Line> component, or use them to create whatever you like, as long as it is made of SVG.

  • textProps
    Coordinates and rotation for the text: { x, y, transform }. It is recommended you apply this object to a <Text> element.

  • value
    The value of this mark.

import { Line } from 'react-native-svg'
// later ...
<Marks step={5}>
  {(mark, i) => (
    <G key={i}>
      <Line
        {...mark.coordinates}
        // any other prop here, except x1, y1, x2, and y2
      />
      {(i % 2 == 0) && (
        // only show the number if the mark is even
        <Text
          {...mark.textProps}
          // any other prop here, except x, y, and transform
        >
          {mark.value}
        </Text>
      )}
    </G>
  )}
</Marks>

Custom needle

Pass a function as children to make a custom needle. It will rotate automatically.

<Speedometer width={width}>
  <Needle>
    {() => {
      // you might need the center of the circle
      // to place the needle correctly
      const center = width / 2

      return (
        // some magic SVG here
      )
    }}
  </Needle>
</Speedometer>

Custom indicator

Pass a function as children to make a custom indicator. You can use this to place the indicator in the center of the circle:

<Speedometer width={width}>
  <Indicator>
    {(value, textProps) => (
      <Text
        {...textProps} // textProps has the "transform" property only
        fontSize={40}
        x={width / 2}
        y={width / 2 + 10}
        textAnchor="middle"
        alignmentBaseline="middle"
      >
        {value}
      </Text>
    )}
  </Indicator>
</Speedometer>

useSpeedometerContext

You can achieve virtually anything you need by adding a component that uses this hook and returns SVG:

const MyCustomSVG = () => {

  const {
    currentFillAngle,
    radius,
    rotation,
    min,
    max,
    angle,
    lineCap,
    accentColor,
    fontFamily,
    value,
  } = useSpeedometerContext();

  return (
    // some magic SVG here
  )
}

const App = () => {

  return (
    <Speedometer>
      <Background />
      <Needle />
      <MyCustomSVG />
    </Speedometer>
  )
}

Just SVG

It is possible to wrap any component inside a <G> tag and add more vectors:

<Speedometer>
  <G opacity={0.4}>
    <Needle/>
  </G>
  <Line />
  <Polygon />
</Speedometer>

Properties

Prop Default Type Description
width 250 number Width of the component
height same as width number Height of the component
angle 250 number Angle of the speedometer in degrees
rotation number By default, the rotation is computed with the given angle to keep the marks symmetrical. If you want to change the rotation (like this example) take in mind that "0" is at the top of the circle.
value 0 number Current value of the speedometer, this is what you typically change dynamically
min 0 number Minimum value, can be a negative number
max 180 number Max value
