Properties

@pixorize/pixorize-quetzalcoatl exposes a JavaScript class which is responsible of drawing the interactive image (canvas element and all its interaction). The class' constructor takes 3 parameters:

data: JSON The interactive image JSON data. There is one and only required property on this JSON which is simply called json, which should contain 2 properties: scale and dots. scale is the default zoom scale of the interactive image, and dots is the collection (array) of dots within the image. data should look like this:

{
  "json": {
    "scale": "1",
    "dots": [
      {
        "x": 725,
        "y": 623.5,
        "text": {
          "ops": [
            {
              "attributes": {
                "bold": true
              },
              "insert": "Component of TPP"
            },
            {
              "attributes": {
                "align": "center",
                "header": 2
              },
              "insert": "\n"
            },
            {
              "insert": "(TPP teepees)"
            },
            {
              "attributes": {
                "align": "center"
              },
              "insert": "\n"
            },
            {
              "insert": "\nThiamine is a component of the cofactor "
            },
            {
              "attributes": {
                "bold": true
              },
              "insert": "TPP"
            },
            {
              "insert": "\n"
            }
          ]
        },
        "type": "DOT"
      }
    ]
  }
}

imageUrl: string The image URL.

parentNode: HTMLElement The parent HTML element/node in which the interactive image will be inserted in. It is important to know that the parent node must have a valid width and height for the interactive image to be loaded. This library uses parent node's offsetWidth and offsetHeight values to display the canvas.

Instance methods

Once the class is instantiated, it exposes two useful methods.

onWindowsResize: void(newWidth: number, newHeight: number) Useful for having a responsive interactive image. This methods dynamically updates the width and height of the image based on the passed parameters. Here is common to pass parent node's new width and height.

destroy: void() Fully destroys the interactive image from the DOM (parent node still remains in the DOM).
