liquid-fire's Introduction

Liquid Fire

Comprehensive animation support for ambitious Ember applications. Interactive Documentation is here.

Features

Animated transitions between routes that work seamlessly with the Ember router.
A DSL for laying out your spatial route relationships, cleanly separated from view-layer implementation details.
Animated transitions between models within a single route.
Animated transitions between individual scalar values within a template.
Promise-driven API to control your animation flow.
Backed by velocity.js, but easy to extend to other animation drivers if there's interest.

Documentation

Liquid Fire website is an ember-cli application that contains an interactive demo & documentation. It runs from Liquid Fire's test dummy app.

You can also see some examples in my Ember Animation Demo repo, and this video presentation from the Boston Ember Meetup.

Development

Source Organization

This repo contains both the liquid-fire library and a demo application that presents interactive documentation. It follows standard ember-cli addon v2 format.

liquid-fire: is code that can be imported by the user from the liquid-fire namespace
docs: is the demo and documentation application
test-app: is the testing

Testing

When running tests you'll want to set your transition speeds to 0 so they don't slow down your tests. This can be accomplished by using an Environment variable.

// Import the Environment
import ENV from "your-application-name/config/environment";

// If Testing Environment
if (ENV.environment === "test") {
  var customDuration = 0; // set to 0 seconds
} else {
  var customDuration = 200; // set to 200 miliseconds
}

this.transition(
  this.toRoute("foo"),
  this.use("toLeft", { duration: customDuration }) // Use customDuration
);
