DEPRECATED: Use the native web component instead: https://github.com/sebastianwachter/wc-scratch

Publishing status: Publishing status

A Vue.js wrapper component that turns everything into fun scratch cards. Includes touch support without additional dependencies.

It can also calculate percentage value of the scratchables's cleared area.

๐ŸŽ‰ Installation

Install it with npm:

npm i vue-scratchable

Or directly in the browser:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue-scratchable@latest/dist/vue-scratchable.umd.min.js"></script>

โœจ Usage

Register the component globally:

import VueScratchable from 'vue-scratchable';

Vue.component('vue-scratchable', VueScratchable);

Or use it locally in your Single File Components:

import VueScratchable from 'vue-scratchable';

export default {
  /* ... */
  components: {
    VueScratchable,
  },
  /* ... */
};

In both cases you are now able to use it in the <template> of a component:

<vue-scratchable>
  <h1>Hello Scratchable World</h1>
</vue-scratchable>

๐Ÿค” Complete example as a Single File Component

This code is taken from this project's App.vue file to showcase the component's easy way of use.

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <h1>A beautiful parrot got trapped behind some paper.</h1>
    <h2>Scratch them free!</h2>
    <vue-scratchable
      v-slot="{ init }"
      :brushOptions="brush"
      :hideOptions="hide"
      getPercentageCleared
      @percentageUpdate="updatePoints"
    >
      <div class="wrapper">
        <img
          :src="require('./assets/mehmet-turgut-kirkgoz-vnayhPykN5Q-unsplash.jpg')"
          @load="init()"
        >
        <h3>{{ subline }}</h3>
      </div>
    </vue-scratchable>
    <p>You scratched {{ percentage }}% free.</p>

โš™๏ธ Configuration

๐ŸŽฐ Slot

Slot nameDescription
defaultThe content to be scratched free.

๐Ÿ’ก Props

PropertyTypeDescription
brushOptionsObjectConfiguration object of the "scratcher". See below for possible options.
hideOptionsObjectConfiguration object of the scratchable layer. See below for possible options.
getPercentageClearedBooleanFlag to enable the percentageUpdate event which emits the amount of cleared paint as percentage.
percentageStrideNumberA stride used while calculating the cleared percentage to reduce calculation time.

๐Ÿ–Š๏ธ Brush options

PropertyTypeDefaultDescription
sizeNumber20Defines the lineWidth attribute.
shapeStringroundDefines the lineJoin attribute.

๐Ÿ™ˆ Hide options

There are two different types of fill that can be applied to the scratchable area: a solid colour or a canvas pattern. These are differentiated by the type property:

๐ŸŸฉ Solid colour
PropertyTypeDescription
typeStringCan be 'color' or 'pattern'. If you want it to be a solid colour you should set it to 'color'.
valueStringThe colour you want for the fill. Can be any type of colour: hex or rgba.

Example:

const hide = {
  type: 'color',
  value: '#333',
};
๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ Pattern
PropertyTypeDescription
typeStringCan be 'color' or 'pattern'. If you want it to be a pattern you should set it to 'pattern'.
srcStringA link to an image (best case is a repeatable texture). Can be an external Link as well as an imported local asset.
repeatStringDefines whether and in which direction the image should be repeated. Possible values are "repeat", "no-repeat", "repeat-x" and "repeat-y".

Example:

const hide = {
  type: 'pattern',
  src: 'https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/222/Canvas_createpattern.png',
  repeat: 'repeat',
};

๐ŸŽˆ Events

Event nameParameter typeDescription
percentage-updateNumberIf the getPercentageCleared flag is set the component will emit this event and pass a number calculated from the percentage amount of the cleared area.

โœ”๏ธ Caveats

  1. Img tags with local assets

When using img tags with local imported assets you have to call the init method of the component corresponding to the img tag's @load event. The init method can be accessed through the component's scoped slot.

Example:

<vue-scratchable v-slot="{ init }">
  <img
    :src="require('./img.jpg')"
    @load="init()"
  >
</vue-scratchable>
  1. Using external images with patterns won't calculate percentage values.

Patterns from external sources can't be used together with the percentage calculation. If done anyways it will resolve in the following CORS error:

Error in v-on handler: "SecurityError: Failed to execute 'getImageData' on 'CanvasRenderingContext2D': The canvas has been tainted by cross-origin data."
  1. Percentage calculation is very taxing on performance

The cleared area percentage calculation has to take every pixel of the canvas into consideration and analyzes whether they are cleared or not. Since this calculation gets called on every draw step this needs a lot of processing power. Because of that this feature is disabled by default and needs to be explicitly activated.

That's also why the percentageStride property should be set wisely and adjusted to your needs. It defines how many pixels should be skipped while calculating. This obviously also decreases the percentage's value accuracy.
