A simple yet powerful JQuery star rating plugin for Bootstrap which supports advanced features like fractional star fill and RTL input support.
Developed with a focus on utlizing pure CSS-3 styling to render the control. The plugin uses Bootstrap markup and styling by default, but it
can be overridden with any other CSS markup. View the documentation or a complete demo
at Krajee JQuery plugins.

> NOTE: Release v4.0 is a modified rewrite with various new enhancements and BC breaking features. It allows rendering richer markup for star symbols and offers theming support.

Features

- Convert any HTML input to a star rating control.
- The plugin automatically converts an input to a star rating control if you set its class = rating.
All options to the input can be passed as HTML5 data attributes.
- You can use the HTML 5 number input for polyfill and the plugin will automatically use the number attributes like min, max, and step.
However, number inputs have a problem with decimal values on the Chrome Browser. Read the Browser Support section in the documentation.
- Involves pure CSS3 styling of the stars. Say goodbye to image sprites or playing with image backgrounds. Offers clean scalable vector
icons for consistent display across devices. Optionally one can use the Unicode character set to override symbols.
- Use any of your favorite font icon frameworks to render your star symbols (for example you can easily use the icons from the FontAwesome library).
- Render and display fractional star ratings. Configure number of stars, min, max, step, and theoretically support any fractional rating.
- Uses Bootstrap 5.x, 4.x, 3.x styles & Bootstrap 3.x glyphicons by default. But this can be overridden with plugin parameters and your own CSS styles.
- Support for RIGHT TO LEFT (RTL) input. Automatically changes star styling for RTL.
- Ability to clear values and options for the stars. Control where the clear button element can be shown.
- Reset star rating to the initial value when the form is reset.
- Ability to control and display caption of the selected stars. Each rated star can have its own caption. Control where the
caption element can be shown.
- Ability to size the rating control including the stars, caption, and clear button. Five prebuilt size templates are
available xl, lg, md, sm, and xs.
- Triggers JQuery events for advanced development. Events currently available are rating.change, rating.clear, rating.reset, rating.refresh, rating.hover, and rating.hoverleave.
- Disabled and readonly input star rating support.
- Change stars and caption on mouse hover (new feature since v3.0.0).
- Change stars and caption on slide and drag for mobile/touch devices (new feature since v3.1.0).
- Support for translations and locales.

Pre-requisites

1. Bootstrap 5.x, 4.x, 3.x
2. Latest JQuery
3. Most browsers supporting CSS3 & JQuery.

Installation

$3

You can use the bower package manager to install. Run:

bower install bootstrap-star-rating

$3

You can use the composer package manager to install. Either run:

$ php composer.phar require kartik-v/bootstrap-star-rating "@dev"

or add:

"kartik-v/bootstrap-star-rating": "@dev"

to your composer.json file

> NOTE: You can use the sass branch for installation using bootstrap-sass dependency.
The master branch can be used for installation using plain bootstrap dependency.

$3

You can also manually install the plugin easily to your project. Just download the source ZIP or TAR ball and extract the plugin assets (css and js folders) into your project.

Usage

Step 1: Load the following assets in your header.

``html
















`

If you noticed, you need to load the jquery.min.js and bootstrap.min.css in addition to the star-rating.min.css and star-rating.min.js for
the plugin to work with default settings.

Step 2: Setup your input markup to automatically initialize the rating
`html

`

Step 3: Initialize the plugin on your page for other input types. For example,

`js
// initialize with defaults
$("#input-id").rating();

// with plugin options (do not attach the CSS class "rating" to your input if using this approach)
$("#input-id").rating({'size':'lg'});
`

The #input-id is the identifier for the input on your page (that you used to initialize the rating), and this input is hidden automatically by the plugin (by adding the bootstrap CSS class hide).

Alternatively, you can directly call the plugin options by setting data attributes to your input field.
