Getting Started

Get cax through npm or cdn:

npm i cax

Usage:

import cax from 'cax'

const stage = new cax.Stage(200, 200, 'body')

cax.loadImgs({
  imgs: ['./test.jpg'],
  complete: (imgs) => {
    const img = imgs[0]
    const bitmap = new cax.Bitmap(img)

    bitmap.x = stage.width / 2
    bitmap.y = stage.height / 2
    bitmap.rotation = -10
    bitmap.originX = img.width / 2
    bitmap.originY = img.height / 2
    bitmap.filter('blur(10px)')

    stage.add(bitmap)
    stage.update()
  }
})

Built-in Object

Group

For grouping, group can also nested group, and the parent container's properties will be superimposed on child properties, such as:

const group = new cax.Group()
const rect = new cax.Rect(100, 100, {
  fillStyle: 'black'
})
group.add(rect)
stage.add(group)
stage.update()

Group has commonly used add and remove methods to add and delete elements. The first add will be drawn first, and all subsequent add will be covered above the top add.

Group Method

add

add child to group

groupObj.add(child) 
remove

remove child from group

groupObj.remove(child)
empty

remove all the children from group

groupObj.empty()
replace

replace child by another obj

groupObj.replace(current, prev)

Stage

Stage is the largest top container inherited from Group, so have all the methods and props of Group.

Stage Method

update

Any element can't be seen on the stage. You must execute the update method.

stage.update()

Any element property is modified. Please perform stage.update() to update the stage, or put it in the timer.

cax.tick(stage.update.bind(stage))
scaleEventPoint

When the height of the canvas and the pixels of the canvas are not one-to-one, the event triggering position is inaccurate, and you can use the scaleEventPoint method to make the event correct.

//The width of the canvas is half the canvas pixel
stage.scaleEventPoint(0.5, 0.5)

Example: https://github.com/dntzhang/cax/blob/master/packages/cax/examples/pie/main.js#L218-L220

Stage Prop

disableMoveDetection

Disable event detection for mouse or touch mobile. Default value in the web is false. You can change it:

stage.disableMoveDetection = true
moveDetectionInterval

Set the touchmove and mousemove detection interval by moveDetectionInterval.

//check twice in one second
stage.moveDetectionInterval = 500

Bitmap

const bitmap = new cax.Bitmap(img)
stage.add(bitmap)
stage.update()

If you only transmit URL instead of the instance of the Image object, you need to do this:

const bitmap = new cax.Bitmap('./wepay.png', ()=>{
  stage.update()
})
stage.add(bitmap)

bitmap-prop

rect

You can set the picture clipping display area, and other transform attributes:

bitmap.rect = [0, 0, 170, 140]
bitmap.x = 200
bitmap.rotation = 30

Sprite

The sequence frame animation component can combine any region of any picture into a series of animations.

const sprite = new cax.Sprite({
    framerate: 7,
    imgs: ['./mario-sheet.png'],
    frames: [
        // x, y, width, height, originX, originY ,imageIndex
        [0, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 1, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 2, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 3, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 4, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 5, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 6, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 7, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 8, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 9, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 10, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 11, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 12, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 13, 0, 32, 32],
        [32 * 14, 0, 32, 32]
    ],
    animations: {
        walk: {
            frames: [0, 1]
        },
        happy: {
            frames: [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
        },
        win: {
            frames: [12]
        }
    },
    playOnce: false,
    currentAnimation: "walk",
    animationEnd: function () {

    }
});

Sprite Method

gotoAndPlay

Jump to the current animationName and start playing

spriteObj.gotoAndPlay(animationName)
gotoAndStop

Jump to the current animationName and stop

spriteObj.gotoAndStop(animationName)
gotoAndPlayOnce

Jump to the current animationName and start playing, then destroy yourself after animation. Often used in explosions

spriteObj.gotoAndPlayOnce(animationName)

Text

Text object

const text = new cax.Text('Hello World', {
  font: '20px Arial',
  color: '#ff7700',
  baseline: 'top'
})

Method

getWidth

Get text width

textObj.getWidth()

Graphics

The drawing object is used to draw graphics with Canvas instructions in the basic way of linking.

const graphics = new cax.Graphics()
graphics
    .beginPath()
    .arc(0, 0, 10, 0, Math.PI * 2)
    .closePath()
    .fillStyle('#f4862c')
    .fill()
    .strokeStyle('black')
    .stroke()

graphics.x = 100
graphics.y = 200

stage.add(graphics)

In particular, if you perform a graphics connection rendering operation in a loop, be sure to add the clear () method, or the path will be overloaded to your browser:

cax.setInterval(function(){
  graphics
    .clear()
    .beginPath()
    .arc(0, 0, 10, 0, Math.PI * 2)
    .stroke()
}, 16)

Shape

Unlike Graphics, Shape usually has limited width height, so it can be buffered with off screen Canvas. The following are Shape.

Rect

const rect = new cax.Rect(200, 100, {
  fillStyle: 'black'
})

Circle

const circle = new cax.Circle(10)

Ellipse

const ellipse = new cax.Ellipse(120, 20)

Element

Element is a combination of multiple elements, such as Bitmap, Group, Text, Shape and other mixed images.

Button

const button = new cax.Button({
  width: 100,
  height: 40,
  text: "Click Me!"
})

Motion

Cax has built-in to capability to write motion effects in a continuous way.

const easing = cax.To.easing.elasticInOut

cax.To.get(bitmap)
    .to({ y: 340, rotation: 240 }, 2000, easing)
    .begin(() => {
        console.log("Task one has began!")
    })
    .progress(() => {
        console.log("Task one is progressing!")
    })
    .end(() => {
        console.log("Task one has completed!")
    })
    .wait(500)
    .to()
    .rotation(0, 1400, easing)
    .begin(() => {
        console.log("Task two has began!")
    })
    .progress(() => {
        console.log("Task two is progressing!")
    })
    .end(() => {
        console.log("Task two has completed!")
    })
    .start();

If you want circular motion, you can use the cycle method:

cax.To.get(bitmap)
    .to()
    .y(340, 2000, cax.easing.elasticInOut)
    .to
    .y(0, 2000, cax.easing.elasticInOut)
    .cycle()
    .start()

It's important to note that, unlike tween.js, Cax uses the camelcase. For example, Cubic.In becomes cubicIn.

Clip

const stage = new cax.Stage(600, 400, 'body')
const bitmap = new cax.Bitmap('./wepay-diy.jpg', () => {
    stage.update()
})
const clipPath = new cax.Graphics()
clipPath.arc(40, 40, 25, 0, Math.PI * 2)
bitmap.clip(clipPath)
stage.add(bitmap)

You can get the same effect with blow code:

const clipPath = new cax.Graphics()
clipPath.x = 40
clipPath.y = 40
clipPath.arc(0, 0, 25, 0, Math.PI * 2)

So you can find that clip graphics supports all the transformation props(x,y,scaleX,scaleY,rotation,skewX,skewY,originX,originY).

Custom Object

Custom Shape

Custom Shape inherits from cax.Shape:

class Sector extends cax.Shape {
  constructor (r, from, to, option) {
    super()

    this.option = option || {}
    this.r = r
    this.from = from
    this.to = to
  }

  draw () {
    this.beginPath()
      .moveTo(0, 0)
      .arc(0, 0, this.r, this.from, this.to)
      .closePath()
      .fillStyle(this.option.fillStyle)
      .fill()
      .strokeStyle(this.option.strokeStyle)
      .lineWidth(this.option.lineWidth)
      .stroke()
  }
}

Use the Shape:

const sector = new Sector(10, 0, Math.PI/6, {
  fillStyle: 'red'
  lineWidth: 2
})
stage.add(sector)
stage.update()

Custom Element

Custom Element inherits from cax.Group:

class Button extends cax.Group {
  constructor (option) {
    super()
    this.width = option.width
    this.roundedRect = new  cax.RoundedRect(option.width, option.height, option.r)
    this.text = new cax.Text(option.text, {
      font: option.font,
      color: option.color
    })

    this.text.x = option.width / 2 - this.text.getWidth() / 2 * this.text.scaleX
    this.text.y = option.height / 2 - 10 + 5 * this.text.scaleY
    this.add(this.roundedRect, this.text)
  }
}

export default Button

Use the Button:

const button = new cax.Button({
  width: 100,
  height: 40,
  text: "Click Me!"
})

In general, it is suggested that inherit Group from a slightly complex combination, which is conducive to expansion and management of internal components.
