Examples

Animating a CSS style:

var square = document.querySelector('.square');
TinyAnimate.animateCSS(square, 'marginLeft', 'px', 10, 70, 500, 'easeInOutQuart', function() {
    console.log('done!!!111oneone');
});

Animating the 'x' property on an SVG element:

var square = document.querySelector('.square');
TinyAnimate.animate(70, 10, 1000, function(x) {
    square.setAttribute('x', x);
});

Using Require.js, changing the opacity of a rgba color:

define(['TinyAnimate'], function(TinyAnimate) {
    var elem = document.querySelector('button.send');
    elem.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
        TinyAnimate.animate(1, .5, 500, function(opacity) {
            square.style.backgroundColor = 'rgba(65, 131, 196, ' + opacity + ')';
        });
    });
});

Usage

Interface

1. TinyAnimate.animate(from, to, duration, update, easing, done)
   • from (int) — Property value to animate from
   • to (int) — Property value to animate to
   • duration (int) — Duration in milliseconds
   • update (function) — Function to implement updating the DOM, get's called with a value between from and to
   • easing (string | function) — Optional: A string when the easing function is available in TinyAnimate.easings, or a function with the signature: function(t, b, c, d) {...}
   • done (function) — Optional: To be executed when the animation has completed.
2. TinyAnimate.animateCSS(element, property, unit, from, to, duration, easing, done)
   • element (HTMLElement) — A dom node
   • property (string) — Property name, as available in element.style, i.e. 'borderRadius', not 'border-radius'
   • unit (string) — Property unit, like 'px'
   • from (int) — Property value to animate from
   • to (int) — Property value to animate to
   • duration (int) — Duration in milliseconds
   • easing (string | function) — Optional: A string when the easing function is available in TinyAnimate.easings, or a function with the signature: function(t, b, c, d) {...}
   • done (function) — Optional: To be executed when the animation has completed.
3. TinyAnimate.cancel(animation)
   • animation (object) - Animation object returned from animate or animateCSS.

Easings

All the easings found at easings.net are supported. I suggest you strip out all the easings you do not use in production to keep the bytes down. If you don't specify an easing, or specify an incorrect easing, the default linear easing will be used.

It's also possible to specify the easing as a function. Read more about creating easing functions manually here and here.

requestAnimationFrame

It uses the unprefixed version of requestAnimationFrame, if available. You can however include a polyfill as well, if you need to support more browsers. See caniuse.com/requestanimationframe for more detailed browser support, everthing that needs a prefix will only use requestAnimationFrame whenever a polyfill has been included. If window.requestAnimationFrame is not found, setTimeout() will be used.

A polyfill for requestAnimationFrame is included in the project, but you are not required to use it. Choose wisely.
