uh hello guys welcome to this video so
0:02
in this video I will show you the
0:04
stopwatch timer so if you want to show a
0:08
stopwatch timer inside your react CH
0:11
application if you're building some kind
0:12
of time related application you can show
0:15
this nice little
0:17
stopwatch you where you have three
0:19
options we can
0:20
reset click the reset button it will
0:23
again reset to
0:24
0000 and then you can pause it the timer
0:27
here so once the process finishes or if
0:30
you are doing it the user can pause the
0:33
timer and it will actually pause at that
0:36
particular time interval and again if
0:38
you can click the play button again it
0:40
will play from that position onwards so
0:44
we have these three buttons we can reset
0:47
we can pause it at any position in the
0:50
time so we have the stopwatch clock and
0:55
timer you may say you can pause it so it
0:59
will
1:01
all it will also capture the millisecond
1:03
as well so it's 11 second 71 millisecond
1:06
so it capturing everything so this is
1:09
actually a third party package that we
1:12
are using if you go to npmjs.com and
1:14
just search for this package it is
1:17
called as react
1:21
timer so we are using the simple timer
1:24
component so the configuration part is
1:27
very simple first of all you install
1:29
this by EX executing this command it's
1:31
almost got 44 weekly downloads pretty
1:34
popular package so now I'll show you how
1:38
to configure it so first of all just
1:40
make a simple functional component and
1:43
then we import this package by simply
1:46
the import statement import timer from
1:50
react
1:54
timer so it's almost 6 kilobytes of size
1:58
we import this like this
2:00
and after this we need to configure some
2:02
options of it so we can declare an
2:05
options
2:07
object we can put a prefix such as
2:11
seconds
2:14
elapsed and then we can have a delay
2:17
let's suppose of 100 millisecond so we
2:20
have these two options you can play with
2:22
these options and then whever you need
2:24
to embed this we simply embed the timer
2:28
component and if you don't pass the
2:31
options if you just do this if you don't
2:34
pass the options you will not see the
2:37
clock so do need to pass an options
2:40
here so it takes a parameter of options
2:44
and here you do need to
2:46
pass the options that you have so now
2:50
you will see you will see this
2:53
stopwatch timer clock appearing in your
2:55
application and automatically it will
2:58
start whenever you load your application
3:00
then we have these three buttons you can
3:02
click the pause button then
3:04
that time will be paused at that
3:06
particular location and again if you
3:08
click the play button it
3:10
will so it's a nice little component of
3:12
stopwatch timer clock if you are
3:14
developing some kind of application
3:16
related to time if you need to keep
3:19
track of your
3:22
users of how much time that took in
3:25
solving the problem you can have
3:27
integrate this component you have these
3:30
three buttons appearing you can reset
3:31
play pause and stopwatch timer clock so
3:35
this is a nice little component you can
3:37
use it and thank you very much for
