Dreamodus d183d7d16b v1.1.3: Radix-composable buttons, meter ballistics/dBFS/loudness, PanKnob 
- PushButton/Button forward native button props (...rest) and compose their
  own event handlers with consumer/Radix-injected ones, so a Button works as
  a Radix `asChild` trigger (dropdowns/tooltips/popovers). Prop types now
  extend React.ButtonHTMLAttributes.
- Meter gains opt-in metering: `ballistics` (PPM attack/decay), `peakDecay`
  (peak-hold fall tail), `scale="db"` (feed amplitude → dBFS with reference
  lines; min/max default -60/0), and `integrated` (windowed LUFS-ish loudness
  readout + marker). New rAF engine in meterEngine.ts with ampToDb/dbToAmp
  helpers; default behavior unchanged.
- New `PanKnob` — bipolar stereo pan: fills from center, center detent,
  L<n>/C/R<n> readout, -50..50 default.
- Docs: ApiDocs rows + recipes (dBFS meter, pan strip, Button-as-trigger),
  gallery cards (dBFS meter, Pan) + a Regenerate Button in the panel.
  CHANGELOG 1.1.3; version 1.1.3; install URLs bumped.

Library + docs typecheck and build; 46 tests pass.

- Meter dBFS readout: muted-grey unit labels (LUFS matched to dB), value-first
  layout in an aligned 2-column grid so peak/loudness decimals line up, and
  ghost pad digits removed — the loudness row no longer looks like a stray tag.

- Action buttons (Button / PushButton mode="action") no longer show an LED
  by default — an action has no state to indicate. led defaults to 'strip' for
  toggle/momentary and false for action; led="dot"/"strip" opts back in.
- Meter dBFS readout: units (dB / LUFS) sit centered directly under each
  value; grid alignment tidied and ghost pad digits removed. Docs: dBFS-meter
  card moved next to the Meters card (same component) + a horizontal example.

dreamknob

A feature-full, studio-grade React + TypeScript knob & fader library with a headless interaction core — plus a showcase/documentation site.

pnpm install       # install everything
pnpm dev           # run the showcase at http://localhost:5173
pnpm test          # library unit tests
pnpm build         # build library + docs

Workspace layout

Path What it is
packages/dreamknob The library. Zero runtime dependencies, ESM + CJS + .d.ts.
apps/docs Vite showcase: gallery, live playground with code generation, API docs.

The library in 10 seconds

import { MetalKnob, LEDKnob, Fader, logTaper } from 'dreamknob'

<MetalKnob size={90} min={0} max={100} step={0.5} defaultValue={64} label="Gain" />
<LEDKnob min={20} max={20000} taper={logTaper} defaultValue={632} label="Freq" />
<Fader min={-60} max={12} step={0.5} unit=" dB" defaultValue={-6} label="Out" />
  • Feel: grab-and-rotate rotary tracking (rc-knob style) with pickup/relative modes, or relative vertical / horizontal drag (DAW plugin style), or absolute track dragging for faders. Scroll-wheel nudge, full keyboard support, Shift+scroll for fine control, double-click reset, touch via pointer capture, proper role="slider" accessibility.
  • Numbers: any range (negative, fractional, huge), decimal step with float-drift-safe rounding, discrete values lists, evenly spaced detents (steps), linear / log / power / custom tapers.
  • Styles: FlatKnob, MetalKnob, RubberKnob, VintageKnob, LEDKnob, NeonKnob, SteppedKnob, PanKnob, ImageKnob (film-strips), Fader, LEDFader, Meter (PPM ballistics · dBFS · loudness), MeterBridge, Gauge, XYPad, PushButton, Button, IndicatorLamp, LampRow, ToggleSwitch, SegmentSwitch, TransportButton, ScrubField, SegmentDisplay, AlphaDisplay, plus LabeledField/Rack layout — every color themeable per instance.
  • Composable: <Knob> + primitives (Arc, Pointer, Ticks, TickLabels, Face, KnobValue, KnobLabel, GlowFilter) for custom designs, or go fully headless with useKnob.

See packages/dreamknob/README.md and the docs app for the full API.

Using it in another app

The easiest way is the published release on our Forgejo:

pnpm add https://git.dreamodus.software/Dreamodus/DreamKnob/releases/download/v1.1.3/dreamknob-1.1.3.tgz

Or build locally — the package builds to packages/dreamknob/dist (ESM + CJS + types):

# 1. Tarball (most robust — behaves exactly like an npm install)
cd packages/dreamknob && pnpm build && pnpm pack
# then in your app:
pnpm add /path/to/dreamknob-1.0.0.tgz

# 2. File dependency (picks up rebuilds on reinstall)
pnpm add file:../dreamknob/packages/dreamknob

# 3. Link for active development against your app
cd packages/dreamknob && pnpm link --global
cd your-app && pnpm link --global dreamknob

Peer deps: react >= 18, react-dom >= 18. No CSS import needed.
