Install
You can install via npm or yarn.
npm
npm install --save animated-weather-icon
yarn
yarn add animated-weather-icon
Usage
Importing
You can import using ES6 imports.
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon } from 'animated-weather-icon';
Initialisation
To use the animated weather icon, you must create a new instance of the icon and provide it with a render target.
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon } from 'animated-weather-icon';
const renderTarget = document.querySelector('.my-render-target');
const icon = new AnimatedWeatherIcon(renderTarget);
Displaying a weather type
To display a weather type you must call setType
on your icon instance.
The setType
method takes three arguments type
, and optionally time
and disableAnimations
. It returns a Promise that resolves when the icon finished animating in.
If using TypeScript you can import enums for the type
and time
and pass them as arguments like so:
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon, AnimatedWeatherTypes, AnimatedWeatherTimes } from 'animated-weather-icon';
const icon = new AnimatedWeatherIcon(renderTarget);
icon.setType(AnimatedWeatherTypes.Clear, AnimatedWeatherTimes.Day);

Hiding the weather icon
To display a hide then weather icon you need to call unsetIcon
on your icon instance.
The unsetIcon
method returns a Promise that resolves when the icon finished animating out.
In this example we will wrap our calls in an async function so we can use await on the promise instances that setType
and unsetIcon
return. We can use this to wait for the setType
animation to finish, wait for 2 seconds, and then hide the icon using unsetIcon
.
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon, AnimatedWeatherTypes, AnimatedWeatherTimes } from 'animated-weather-icon';
async function myFunction() {
const icon = new AnimatedWeatherIcon(renderTarget);
await icon.setType(AnimatedWeatherTypes.Clear, AnimatedWeatherTimes.Day);
setTimeout(async () => {
await icon.unsetIcon();
// do something
}, 2000);
}
myFunction();
Changing the weather icon after one has been set
You can change the weather type after it has been set, as if the icon knows it already has a different icon set, it will call unsetIcon
for you.
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon, AnimatedWeatherTypes, AnimatedWeatherTimes } from 'animated-weather-icon';
async function myFunction() {
const icon = new AnimatedWeatherIcon(renderTarget);
await icon.setType(AnimatedWeatherTypes.Clear, AnimatedWeatherTimes.Day);
setTimeout(() => {
icon.setType(AnimatedWeatherTypes.Overcast, AnimatedWeatherTimes.Day);
}, 2000);
}
myFunction();
Forcing icons to remove immediately
The unsetIcon
method has an optional force
argument that you can pass to force the icon to hide immediately without animating out.
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon, AnimatedWeatherTypes, AnimatedWeatherTimes } from 'animated-weather-icon';
async function myFunction() {
const icon = new AnimatedWeatherIcon(renderTarget);
await icon.setType(AnimatedWeatherTypes.Clear, AnimatedWeatherTimes.Day);
setTimeout(() => {
void icon.unsetIcon(true);
// do something
}, 2000);
}
myFunction();
Disabling animations
You can disable animations by passing true
as the third argument to setType
.
import { AnimatedWeatherIcon, AnimatedWeatherTypes, AnimatedWeatherTimes } from 'animated-weather-icon';
async function myFunction() {
const icon = new AnimatedWeatherIcon(renderTarget);
await icon.setType(AnimatedWeatherTypes.Clear, AnimatedWeatherTimes.Day, true);
// do something
}
