ReadRemaining

Tell your readers how long they'll need to get through all of your gibberish, with this clever module. With ReadRemaining.js,

TL;DR is a thing of the past.

The module implements the ReadRemaining.js library and shows a small, non-annoying gauge with the estimated remaining reading time on the content types you choose.

Requirements

• Drupal 11 or 12
• The ReadRemaining.js library (MIT), installed automatically via Composer (see below)

Installation

Recommended (Composer): add the library's package definition to the repositories section of your root composer.json (full snippet in the module's README.txt), then run:

composer require drupal/readremaining

This fetches the library into /libraries/readremaining automatically. You can also install the library manually: download version 1.0.x, rename the folder to readremaining, and place it in /libraries/.

Configuration

1. Enable the module.
2. Go to Administration » Configuration » System » ReadRemaining (/admin/config/system/readremaining).
3. Select the content types it should be active on.
4. Optionally tweak the DOM selector, look & feel, and JavaScript settings.
5. Save, then view a node of a selected content type.
