How to use

1: Import

<script src="./game-sprite.min.js"></script>

//use
var mySprite = new Sprite({...});

2:Setting render context

GameSprite Support Canvas、DOM、SnapSVG, you need tell GameSprite which one you need.

//DOM: the dom which as sprite's container
//Snap: Snap paper
//Canvas: canvas.getContext('2d')
var sister = new Sprite({
    ctx: 'set the render context here'
});

3:Setting Sprite data resource

GameSprite Support 2 kind of data resource

  • The image that every frames is in same size, ex:image
  • TexturePacker Tool, ex:image data

We recommend use the TexturePacker Tool.

4: Creating Sprite Instance

No TexturePacker tool

var sister = new Sprite({
    //dom render example
    //render context
    ctx: document.getElementById('sprite-container'),

	//image url
	//if in canvas render context, here is the image object(new Image());
	res: 'http://gtms04.alicdn.com/tps/i4/TB11wd2FVXXXXcbXXXXo12dMVXX-6555-285.png',

	//total frame count
	count: 23,

	//every frame size
	width: 285,
	height: 285,

	//the resource image is multi row?
	row: 1,

	//default 100
	spf: 50,

	//setting the animation[beginFrame, endFrame]
	anim: {
		'runRight': [15, 22],
		'runLeft': [7, 14],
		'static': [1],
		'jump': [0],
		'falling': [2, 6]
	}
});

Using TexturePacker tool

var girl = new Sprite({
    ctx: document.getElementById('dom-sprite'),
	res: {
		image: '../res/gril.png',
		json: SPRITE_DATA
	}
});

When you using the TexturePacker, the rule of animation is the image's name.

For example, if you have 5 picture for running animation, before you drag them into TexturePacker, you need name them like: run-0.png run-1.png...run-4.png。

5: Running Sprite Animation

//run-left is the name of animation
sister.run('run-left');

//when you want to switch the animation, just run
sister.run('jump');

//if you want to run a series of animation
sister.run(['run-left', 'run-right', 'jump', 'run-left', 'jump']);

//you can set the count that animation play
sister.run('run-left', 4, function(){
    //do something
});

//if first argument is number, it means the spf of this animation
sister.run(20, 'run-left');

if you have the timer ticker

//you can use play, ‘play’ method do not running a timer auto
sister.play('run-left');

//custom ticker
requestAnimationFrame(function tick() {
    //to update the sprite's frames
    sister.update();
    requestAnimationFrame(tick);
});

In a general way, in canvas render context, we recommend replace play+update for run method, because you need 'ctx.clearRect'.

The difference between play and run

Sprite is running frame one to one, so it need timer ticker.

Run method will setting a timer by default.

But in some condition, you need play and manual updating.

API

run(name [,count] [,callback])

  • name

    • [String] default animation
    • [Array] a series of animation
    • [Number] spf of animation
  • count [optional]

    • [Number] the iteration count of animation
    • [Function] callback
  • callback [Function] [optional]

play(name [,count] [,callback]) just like run, but no timer ticker

draw(name [, crender])

  • name [String] animation name
  • crender [Function] [optional] custom render function

destroy

start start the animation

pause pause the animation

update update frames of animation

stop stop the sprite's timer

Property

cFrame: current frame

cAnim: current animation object

  • getName() get animation's name

rowNum:

row:

ctx: render context

view: the view of sprite

Using TexturePacker

TexturePacker JSON HASH Type

1: Download TexturePacker

google...

2: Splice images

TexturePacker using the image's name for json's key, so if you want to create a animation for running, you need named images like: girl-run-0.png girl-run-1.png girl-run-2.png, and then:

var girl = new Sprite({
    ctx: document.getElementById('dom-sprite'),
	res: {
		//the TexturePacker's image
		image: '../res/gril.png',
		//the TexturePacker's data
		json: SPRITE_DATA
	},
	sfp: 50
});

//the order is 0-1-2
girl.run('girl-run');

IMPORTANT the name must not has "." & must begin from "0".

if you only has one frame, you can name 'girl-run.png', not necessary 'girl-run-0.png'.

Advanced

custom render function

sprite.draw('custom render context',

function(){

	this._render = function(){};
	this._update = function(){};

});

//for example
//dom render
//this._render = domRender;
function domRender() {

    var s,
        offsetX,
        offsetY;

    function setPos() {
        offsetX = -((this.cFrame % this.rowNum) * this.width);
        offsetY = -(Math.floor(this.cFrame / this.rowNum) * this.height);
        this.view.style.backgroundPosition = offsetX + 'px ' + offsetY + 'px';
    };

    this._render = function () {
        this.view = document.createElement('div');

        s = this.view.style;
        s.width = this.width + 'px';
        s.height = this.height + 'px';

        s.backgroundImage = 'url("' + this.res + '")';
        s.backgroundRepeat = 'no-repeat';

        setPos.call(this);

        this.ctx.appendChild(this.view);

    };

    this._update = function () {
        setPos.call(this);
    };

}
