npm install @theblindhawk/roulette
Warning
@theblindhawk/roulette will soon be renamed into roulette-spinner therefore marked as deprecated (the github repository will stay the same).
The following changes will be applied on the new package:
- the license will be changed from ISC to MIT for convenience
- a few keywords such as "roll" will be changing into "spin"
- Vue and React utilities will be coming in the form of new packages (roulette-spinner-react and roulette-spinner-vue)
Apologies for the inconvenience!
- Compatible with Javascript, TypeScript
- Customize the view of the Roulette down to the details
- Customize the click sound, the spin duration and more
- Control the value the Roulette will land at
- Import any of your own roulette or arrow images
- Does not require any external dependencies
- Test it out by running "npm run dev" after cloning
NB: check out the change log to see what changed from version 2!
- library name change @theblindhawk/roulette => roulette-spinner
- separate packages for react and vue implementations
import and set up the roulette using js
import { Roulette } from "@theblindhawk/roulette";
const container = document.querySelector('.wheel-container')
const sections = [0, 8, 3, 5, 50];
let roulette = new Roulette({container, sections});
// tell the roulette to roll on said option
const result = roulette.roll();the container variable can either be:
- the HTMLElement where the roulette will be placed
- the id of the Element where the roulette will e placed

To try out the code clone the repository then run:
npm install
npm run dev
Then navigate to http://localhost:5173/, there will be three examples available.
If you want to try your own code/settings edit the file index.html and the changes will be reflected immedeately!
Here is an example of a fully set up Roulette:
const img = new Image()
img.src = 'https://link_to_my_board_image.png'
const roulette = new Roulette({
container: 'roulette',
board: {
element: img,
doughnut: { radius: 10, color: 'white' },
shift: 10, // degrees
border: {
width: 4,
color: 'grey',
},
radius: 120,
padding: 20,
},
arrow: {
element: 'standard',
width: 20,
height: 40,
padding: 20,
color: '#000',
shift: 0,
},
sections: [{
value: 'fail',
probability: 7,
font: 'Arial',
font_size: 12,
font_color: 'red',
radius: 50
}, {
value: 'grey car',
probability: 1,
src: 'https://link_to_some_image.svg',
radius: 50
}, {
value: 'blue car',
probability: 1,
src: 'https://link_to_some_image.svg',
radius: 50
}, {
value: 'red car',
probability: 1,
src: 'https://link_to_some_image.svg',
radius: 50
}],
settings: {
roll: {
duration: 10000, // milliseconds
landing: 'edge',
delay: 0, // WIP
},
font: 'Arial',
font_size: 12,
font_color: 'black',
border: {
width: 4,
color: 'grey',
},
},
colors: [ 'yellow', 'white', 'white', 'white' ],
audio: {
src: 'https://link_to_some_audio'
volume: 1,
play: { once: true },
},
});You can then roll the roulette like so.
roulette.roll() // to a random value given equal probabilities
roulette.rollIndex(2) // to the grey car
roulette.rollProbabilities() // using the probabilities given in the costructor
