npm package: @imizaac/react-cursor-position
Description: A React component that decorates its children with touch and mouse cursor coordinates, plotted relative to itself.
Author: Ethan Selzer
Latest version: 3.0.3

# react-cursor-position
react-cursor-position is a primitive component for composing UI features that require notification of cursor or touch position changes. Position coordinates are plotted relative to the HTML element rendered by react-cursor-position. react-cursor-position re-renders child components with new position props when the cursor or touch position changes.

* May be activated by Press, Tap, Touch, Hover and Click gestures
* Supports scroll position changes during an active session

## Demo

See the [react-cursor-position demo site](https://ethanselzer.github.io/react-cursor-position).

Experiment with react-cursor-position [live on CodePen](http://codepen.io/ethanselzer/pen/ryayLK).

## Installation

```sh
npm install --save react-cursor-position
```

## Usage

If you are upgrading from v2x to v3x please see [the release notes](https://github.com/ethanselzer/react-cursor-position/releases/tag/v3.0.0)

If you are upgrading from v1x to v2x please see [the release notes](https://github.com/ethanselzer/react-cursor-position/releases/tag/v2.0.0).

```JSX
import ReactCursorPosition from 'react-cursor-position';
...

<ReactCursorPosition>
    <YourComponentOne/>
    <YourComponentTwo/>
</ReactCursorPosition>
```

react-cursor-position wraps its children in a div, which mouse and touch position
are plotted relative to.

Each child component will receive the following props:

```JavaScript
{
    detectedEnvironment: {
        isMouseDetected: false,
        isTouchDetected: false,
    },
    elementDimensions: {
        width: Number,
        height: Number
    },
    isActive: Boolean,
    isPositionOutside: Boolean,
    position: {
        x: Number,
        y: Number
    }
}
```
This structure may be customized by implementing `mapChildProps` API feature.

The information in `detectedEnvironment` is acquired from interaction with this component and will be unset until the first interaction.

## Props API

All props are optional.

**activationInteractionMouse** : String - One of INTERACTIONS.HOVER (default), INTERACTIONS.CLICK. Import Interactions like this `import ReactCursorPosition, { Interactions } from 'react-cursor-position'`. See [examples](https://ethanselzer.github.io/react-cursor-position/#/activate-by-hover). for more.

**activationInteractionTouch** : String - One of INTERACTIONS.PRESS (default), INTERACTIONS.TAP, or INTERACTIONS.TOUCH. Import Interactions like this `import ReactCursorPosition, { Interactions } from 'react-cursor-position'`. See [examples](https://ethanselzer.github.io/react-cursor-position/#/activate-by-press).

**className** : String - CSS class name(s) to be applied to the div rendered by react-cursor-position.

**hoverDelayInMs** : Number - Amount of time, in milliseconds, to delay hover interaction from activating. Defaults to 0.

**hoverOffDelayInMs** : Number - Amount of time, in milliseconds, to delay hover off interaciton from deactivating. Defaults to 0.

**isEnabled** : Boolean - Enable or disable cursor position monitoring without remounting. Defaults to true.

**mapChildProps** : Function - Model child component props to your custom shape.
Function receives one parameter with the signature
`{ isActive: Boolean, isPositionOutside: Boolean, position: { x: Number, y: Number } }`.  
It should return an object that is compatible with the props interface of your child components.
See [example demo](https://ethanselzer.github.io/react-cursor-position/#/map-child-props).

**onActivationChanged** : Function - Called when the component is active.
Function receives one parameter with the signature `{ isActive: Boolean }`.

**onPositionChanged** : Function - Called when cursor or touch position changes.
Function receives one parameter with the signature `{ elementDimensions: { width: Number, height: Number }, isPositionOutside: Boolean, position: { x: Number, y: Number } }`.

**onDetectedEnvironmentChanged** : Function - Called when detected environment (mouse or touch) changes.
Function receives one parameter with the signature `{ isMouseDetected: Boolean, isTouchDetected: Boolean }`.

**pressDurationInMs** : Number - Milliseconds delay before press gesture is activated. Defaults to 500.

**pressMoveThreshold** : Number - Amount of movement, in pixels, allowed during press gesture detection. Defaults to 5.

**shouldDecorateChildren** : Boolean - Suppress decoration of child components by
setting this prop false. Defaults to true.

**shouldStopTouchMovePropagation** : Boolean - Stop touchmove event bubbling when react-cursor-position is active. Defaults to false.

**style** : Object - Style to be applied to the div rendered by react-cursor-position.

**tapDurationInMs** : Number - Max milliseconds allowed for a screen touch to be considered a tap gesture. Defaults to 180.

**tapMoveThreshold** : Number - Amount of movement, in pixels, allowed during tap gesture detection. Defaults to 5.

## Imperative API
**reset**: Invoking the reset method instructs react-cursor-position to recalculate its position relative to the page.

See API Examples section of the [demo site](https://ethanselzer.github.io/react-cursor-position/#/) for more.
