Usage & Installation

Just running the explorable

Running a local copy

If you want to run a local copy without having to rely on the nasty internet, the best way is to install it via npm:

npm install @explorables/particularly_stuck
open node_modules/@explorables/particularly_stuck/dist/index.html 

Embedding the explorable in your site

If you want to embed the explorable in your site, you need to do three things:

  1. load the explorable package via <script> tag in your page header
  2. add a <div> container element
  3. add a <script> at the end of the document that loads the explorable

like so:

<!doctype html>
<html>
	<head>
		...
		<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@explorables/particularly_stuck/dist/index.umd.js"></script>
		...
	</head>
		...
	<body>
		...
	    <div id="explorable_container"></div>
		...
	</body>
		...
	<script type="text/javascript">
		const explorable_instance = particularly_stuck.load("explorable_container")
	</script>
		...
</html>

The header <script> tag loads the bundle, the <div> in the document is the container in which the explorable gets anchored when the function particularly_stuck("explorable_container") gets executed at the bottom. This function needs the <div> container id as an argument. The function returns an instance of the explorable and writes it to explorable_instance. That variable contains functions like halt(), reset() and variables meta and config.

If you want to make use of ES modules instead of UMD, here's a way that will work on modern (ES support) and legacy browsers (UMD only).

<!doctype html>
<html>
	<head>
		...
	    <script type="module">
	  	      import load from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@explorables/particularly_stuck/dist/index.es.js';
	  	      const particularly_stuck = load("explorable_container");
	    </script>
	    <script nomodule src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@explorables/particularly_stuck/dist/index.umd.js"></script>	  
		...
	</head>
		...
	<body>
		...
	    <div id="explorable_container"></div>
		...
	</body>
		...
	<script nomodule type="text/javascript">
		const explorable_instance = particularly_stuck.load("explorable_container")
	</script>
		...
</html>
