Installation

You can install the latest version using npm:

npm install react-pageflip

Basic Usage

import HTMLFlipBook from 'react-pageflip';

function MyBook(props) {
    return (
        <HTMLFlipBook width={300} height={500}>
            <div className="demoPage">Page 1</div>
            <div className="demoPage">Page 2</div>
            <div className="demoPage">Page 3</div>
            <div className="demoPage">Page 4</div>
        </HTMLFlipBook>
    );
}

Advanced Usage

You can define pages as a component, but in this case you should use React.forwardRef method. Like this:

const Page = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => {
    return (
        <div className="demoPage" ref={ref}>
            /* ref required */
            <h1>Page Header</h1>
            <p>{props.children}</p>
            <p>Page number: {props.number}</p>
        </div>
    );
});

function MyBook(props) {
    return (
        <HTMLFlipBook width={300} height={500}>
            <Page number="1">Page text</Page>
            <Page number="2">Page text</Page>
            <Page number="3">Page text</Page>
            <Page number="4">Page text</Page>
        </HTMLFlipBook>
    );
}

Events

You can use the following events:

...
function DemoBook() {
    const onFlip = useCallback((e) => {
        console.log('Current page: ' + e.data);
    }, []);

    return (
        <HTMLFlipBook
            /* props */
            onFlip={onFlip}
        >
        /* ... pages */
        </HTMLFlipBook>
    )
}

Available events:

• onFlip: number - triggered by page turning
• onChangeOrientation: ("portrait", "landscape") - triggered when page orientation changes
• onChangeState: ("user_fold", "fold_corner", "flipping", "read") - triggered when the state of the book changes
• onInit: ({page: number, mode: 'portrait', 'landscape'}) - triggered when the book is init and the start page is loaded. Listen (on) this event before using the "loadFrom..." methods
• onUpdate: ({page: number, mode: 'portrait', 'landscape'}) - triggered when the book pages are updated (using the "updateFrom..." methods)

Event object has two fields: data: number | string and object: PageFlip

Methods

To use methods, you need to get a PageFlip object. This can be done using React ref and pageFlip(): PageFlip method For example - flipping to the next page:

  function DemoBook() {
        const book = useRef();

        return (
            <>
                <button onClick={() =>
                    book.current.pageFlip().flipNext()}>Next page</button>

                <HTMLFlipBook
                    ...
                    ref={book}
                    ...
                >
                    /* ... pages */
