Intro / Features

Motorcortex-Flubber plugin brings flubber library's capabilities into MotorCortex, available as Incident. "The goal of this library is to provide a best-guess interpolation for any two arbitrary shapes (or collections of shapes) that results in a reasonably smooth animation, without overthinking it."

This Plugin exposes one Incident:

• Flubber

Getting Started

Installation

$ npm install @donkeyclip/motorcortex-flubber
# OR
$ yarn add @donkeyclip/motorcortex-flubber

Importing and loading

import { loadPlugin } from "@donkeyclip/motorcortex";
import FlubberPluginDefinition from "@donkeyclip/motorcortex-flubber";
const FlubberPlugin = loadPlugin(FlubberPluginDefinition);

Creating Incidents

Flubber

Flubber Incident accepts on its animatedAttrs property the d parameter which defines the final state of the svg path to be transformed. The Incident should target the svg path to transform (via the selector of its props). Here's is an example which include both the creation of the incident and the creation of the clip where the incident will be applied:

// Don't forget to import also HTMLClip from "@donkeyclip/motorcortex" in order to create a clip.
import { HTMLClip } from "@donkeyclip/motorcortex";
// Νotice the svg path with id "flubber" on the html of the clip. 
// This is the path we will apply the Flubber transformation to.
const myClip = new HTMLClip({
  host: document.getElementById("clip-container"),
  html: `<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="960" height="500">
            <g transform="translate(240 10) scale(30 30)">
                <path id="flubber" d="M1,0 L2,2 L0,2 Z"></path>
            </g>
        </svg>`,
  css: `#flubber{
        fill: #8b00ff;
        display:block;
    }
    svg{
        margin-top:150px;
    }`,
});

const flubberIncident = new FlubberPlugin.Flubber(
  {
    animatedAttrs: {
      d: [
        [0, 0],
        [2, 0],
        [2, 1],
        [1, 2],
        [0, 1],
      ],
    },
  },
  {
    selector: "#flubber",
    duration: 2000,
  }
);

Notice that we passed the new d parameter of the svg path. d can be defined via various ways (have a look here for more info: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/d. According to the provided definition an alternative way to define the new d value can be:

const fubberIncident2 = new FlubberPlugin.Flubber(
  {
    animatedAttrs: {
      d: "M2 1 h1 v1 h1 v1 h-1 v1 h-1 v-1 h-1 v-1 h1 z",
    },
  },
  {
    selector: "#flubber",
    duration: 2000,
  }
);

Adding Incidents in your clip
