You can use this project to create congratulation confetti, snow or leaves falling from top to bottom or moved by mouse. Also elements insider your hole document can be moved by mouse movement. With this project you can create awesome effects on your website.

Start with a simple test file to see what the project can do without coding yourself. First you need to download the project and then go to the test folder and preview the bootstrap html file.

To start with the project element-animation you need to install via NPM and then import it.

npm i element-animation

import elementAnimation from element-animation

var elemAnim = new elementAnimation(
    container,
    props,
    options
)

container -> DOMElement (default: null)
props -> Array (default: [])
options -> Object (default: {})

Before we start to define the variables you need to know that you only need container and props when using the functions rain(), mousemove() and rainWithMousemove(). First we start with the container. Here you need to give a DOMElement for example a simple <div></div> container.

<div id="element-animation"></div>

const container = document.getElementById('element-animation')

Then you need to define props. There you give an array with the sources to the images like .jpg or .svg.

props = [
    'src_to_img',
    'src_to_img_1'
]

For the options you have the following possibilities. When a comment is behind a option it means that the option is only for a specific funtion.

options = {
    interval: 550,          // rain
    rotate: [-40, 40],
    size: [10, 15],
    duration: [5, 13],      // rain
    amount: [30, 40]        // mousemove
}

Now you need to call one of the given functions described down below to visially see the animation. Choose between rain(), mousemove(), rainWithMousemove() and a special function mousemoveElements().

All functions except mousemoveElements() need a container for the generated elements.

new elementAnimation(container, props, options).rain()

new elementAnimation(container, props, options).mousemove()

new elementAnimation(container, props, options).rainWithMousemove()

data-p-element -> Defines that it is a element for movement
data-p-move -> Factor from 0 to unlimited (float with dots allowed)

<div data-ea-element data-ea-move="0.5">
    Example text or element here.
</div>

<div data-ea-element data-ea-move="0.8">
    Secound example text or element here.
</div>

new elementAnimation(container, props, options).mousemoveElements()

Can be used to reset all prop actions. After a reset you can call another functions

const elemAnim = new elementAnimation(container, props, options).rain()

elemAnim.reset()
elemAnim.mousemove()
