Select Box Based Star Rating JavaScript Library | star-rating.js

star-rating.js is a small JavaScript library to create a customizable and gradually improved star rating control from a regular tick box with numeric values.

The ES6 module with zero dependency converts SELECT with numerical range values (i.e. 1-5) into a dynamic star rating element.

How to change CSS style priority

Sometimes the existing stylesheet rules will override the default CSS styles for Star Ratings. To solve this, you can use the postcss-selector-namespace plugin in your PostCSS on the CSS file before merging with your main stylesheet. This namespace value should be a high-priority/privacy property such as an id attribute or similar property.

Compatibility

All modern browsers

If you need to use the Star Rating library in an unsupported browser (such as Internet Explorer), use the Polyfill service.

How to make use of it:

Installation:

npm i star-rating.js

1. SELECT option fields must contain numeric values.

<link href="css/star-rating.css" rel="stylesheet">

<select class="star-rating">
    <option value="">Select a rating</option>
    <option value="5">Excellent</option>
    <option value="4">Very Good</option>
    <option value="3">Average</option>
    <option value="2">Poor</option>
    <option value="1">Terrible</option>
</select>

<script src="js/star-rating.min.js"></script>
<script>
    var stars = new StarRating('.star-rating');
</script>

2. To rebuild all star rating controls (eg after changing form fields with ajax):

stars.rebuild();

3. To completely remove all star rating controls, including all attached event listeners:

stars.destroy();

4. Below are the default options:

{
    classNames: {
        active: 'gl-active',
        base: 'gl-star-rating',
        selected: 'gl-selected',
    },
    clearable: true,
    maxStars: 10,
    prebuilt: false,
    stars: null,
    tooltip: 'Select a Rating',
}
