### Importing
```jsx
import Pulsable from 'react-pulsable';
import 'react-pulsable/index.css';
```
### how to use it?
```jsx
const App = ({ isLoading }: { isLoading: boolean }) => {
return (
<>
{/* default background */}
<Pulsable isLoading={isLoading}>
<YourComponent2 />
</Pulsable>
{/* custom background */}
<Pulsable
isLoading={isLoading}
config={{
bgColors: {
light: 'rgba(0, 128, 0, 0.2)',
medium: 'rgba(0, 128, 0, 0.3)',
},
}}
>
<YourComponent />
</Pulsable>
{/* custom background with no rounded corners */}
<Pulsable
isLoading={isLoading}
config={{
noRadius: true,
bgColors: {
light: 'rgba(0, 0, 255, 0.2)',
medium: 'rgba(0, 0, 255, 0.3)',
},
}}
>
<YourComponent />
</Pulsable>
{/* custom background with no padding in each skeleton items */}
<Pulsable
isLoading={isLoading}
config={{
noPadding: true,
bgColors: {
light: 'tomato',
medium: 'orange',
},
}}
>
<YourComponent />
</Pulsable>
</>
);
};
```
### what you have to do in your component?
```jsx
const YourComponent = () => {
return (
<form>
<label htmlFor="name" className="pulsable">
Name:
</label>
<div className="pulsable">
<input type="text" id="name" />
</div>
<label htmlFor="email" className="pulsable">
Email:
</label>
<div className="pulsable">
<input type="email" id="email" />
</div>
<button className="pulsable" type="submit">
Submit
</button>
</form>
);
};
```
## Usage Guide
The component takes following props:
- `isLoading`: a boolean that indicates whether the component should be pulsing or not.
- `config`: an object that contains the configuration for the pulsing effect. It has following properties:
- `bgColors`: an object that contains the background colors for the pulsing effect. It has two properties:
- `light`: the light color of the background.
- `medium`: the medium color of the background.
- `noRadius`: a boolean that indicates whether the pulsing effect should have rounded corners or not. By default it has rounded corners.
- `noPadding`: a boolean that indicates whether the pulsing effect should have padding in each skeleton items or not. By default it has padding.
- `animation`: you can pass animation type as a string. default is `wave` and other options are `wave-reverse`, `pulse`, `none
- `className`: as Pulsable component is a wrapper component, you can pass className or alomost all attributes of div element.[means you can treat it as a div, and use accordingly]

### Conditions:
- You must wrap the component you want to add the pulsing effect to with the `Pulsable` component.
- You must provide isLoading state to the `Pulsable` component.
- You can use the `className="pulsable"` to add the pulsing effect to any element.
- if your component is a self closing tag like `<img />` you should have to wrap it with div and add `pulsable` class to that.
- if you want to hide some components while loading add class name `pulsable-hidden`
- if you want to add image icon in skeleton add class name `pulsable-img`
- for the paragraph use classname `pulsable-para`
- while applying base config to all elements, you may need some exceptions. for that you can use `pulsable-no-radius`, `pulsable-no-padding`, `pulsable-radius` and `pulsable-padding`. by using these classes you can override some specific elements.
- As Shown in example, for better performance you can use `flex` and `align-items: flex-start` in parentNode to avoid the pulsing effect from stretching the component. you can also add these styles conditionally wihile loading, if it's affecting your design.
