Install the dice-roller.js script and add the <dice-roller></dice-roller> to your html. Clicking on the dice makes them roll. You can change the dice and how they are totaled using the attributes. The component can be styled using css variables (I have plans for more styling later). More detailed instructions TBD.
1. dice: string comma separated list of dice to roll (i.e., "6,8,10,6")
2. total: how the total is arrived at
3. modifier: + or - after dice are rolled
4. bonus-die: additional die added after dice are summed up
5. difficulty: number required for success
6. size: visual size of dice
Add the dice-roller.js script to your web site, then add the
``
`
npm i @colinaut/dice-roller
pnpm i @colinaut/dice-roller
yarn add @colinaut/dice-roller
`
If you are using Eleventy, and want to install locally rather than rely on the CDN, you can install via NPM/PNPM/YARN and then pass through the js file so that it is included in the output. Then you would just need to add it to the head.
