Lazy-loaded Assets
This library contains some JavaScript plugins to allow lazy-loading images, scripts, stylesheets, iframes and more. The lazy-load functionality also works with pictures tags.
Initializing in JavaScript
To initialize the library, you need to create a new instance of the lazyLoadAssets
class:
new lazyLoadAssets(document.body, {
plugins: [...],
imagesLoaded: imagesLoaded, // optional
})
For example:
import {
activateOnScroll,
lazyVideo,
lazyIframe,
lazyScripts,
lazyStyles,
lazyCssBg,
lazyLoadAssets,
animate,
onInteractive,
} from '@smartimpact-it/lazyload';
import imagesLoaded from 'imagesloaded';
onInteractive(() => {
new lazyLoadAssets(document.body, {
plugins: [
activateOnScroll,
lazyVideo,
lazyIframe,
lazyCssBg,
lazyScripts,
lazyStyles,
animate,
],
imagesLoaded,
});
});
Starting with version 2.0, if you want to use ImagesLoaded, you must pass it to the lazyLoadAssets constructor.
Changelog
v2.0
- Removed support for Foundation Interchange (use Picture instead)
- Removed imagesloaded by default; you can still add it if needed.
Plugins
activateOnScroll
TheactivateOnScroll
plugins is the base plugin that triggers actions when elements come into the viewport. It also is the plugin that implements lazy-load for images/picture tags.You can also use the plugin as standalone, whenever you need to trigger some event when a specific DOM element comes into the viewport:
new activateOnScroll(element, options);
The options object can have the following properties:
callback
- the callback function to be run when the element comes into view (it receives the element that is being activated as a parameter);activatedClass
- the class to be added when the element has been activated (default:animation-started
);activatedClassTargetSelector
- a selector for the element that should receive the "activatedClass" class, when it is a child of the actual element (default:false
);initAttribute
= the dataset attribute to set when activated (it is used to prevent duplicate activations. Default:activateOnScrollInit
),options
- the settings for the IntersectionObserver (default:{ rootMargin: '100px 0px' }
).
Image elements that will be activated by this plugin should have their structure like this:
<img data-lazy-img data-src="https://test.image" alt="" />
lazyCssBg
This plugin is used for elements which have their background image set by CSS.<style> #my-element[data-css-bg-loaded] { background-image: url(https://test.image); } </style> <div id="my-element" data-lazy-css-bg>....</div>
The element will receive the "data-css-bg-loaded" attribute when it gets into view.
lazyIframe
Used to lazy-load iframes.<iframe data-lazysrc="https://my.iframe"></iframe>
lazyScripts
Used to load script tags only when a specific element is visible. For example, to lazy-load magnific-popup only when the newsletter section in the footer is visible. Or to lazy-load Mailchimp/Sendinblue scripts until the newsletter section is visible.Use the
data-lazy-script
attribute, which accepts a single value or an array of script URLs.<section class="newsletter-section" data-lazy-script="[https://mailchimp.some.script]"> Mailchimp content </section>
lazyStyles
Used to load stylesheets only when a specific element is visible. Similar to lazy-loaded scripts.Use the
data-lazy-stylesheet
attribute, which accepts a single value or an array of stylesheet URLs.Warning! Do not use
data-lazy-script
anddata-lazy-stylesheet
on the same element. Use them in separate elements (perhaps a nested element structure).<section class="newsletter-section" data-lazy-script="[https://mailchimp.some.script]"> <div class="" data-lazy-stylesheet="[https://mailchimp.some.styles]"> Mailchimp content </div> </section>
animate
This plugin will add a specified class on the elements when they come into view. It's similar to AOS, but much simpler/more limited.
<style> [data-animate='load-from-left'] { transform: translateX(-100px); transition: transform 0.3s; } [data-animate='load-from-left'].load-from-left { transform: translateX(0); } // or [data-animate='load-from-left'][data-animate-init] { transform: translateX(0); } </style> <div data-animate="load-from-left">Text loaded from left...</div>
When the element comes into view, it will receive the
load-from-left
class which can be used to animate the element.You can also set the
rootMargin
for the IntersectionObserver by using thedata-root-margin
attribute.<div data-animate="load-from-left" data-root-margin="500px 200px"> Text loaded from left... </div>
lazyVideo
This will allow you to create video elements that are loaded only when they come into view. Use the
data-lazy-video
attribute on the video element, and replacesrc
withdata-src
on the source element tags:<video data-lazy-video autoplay muted loop playsinline> <source data-src="one-does-not-simply.webm" type="video/webm" /> <source data-src="one-does-not-simply.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> </video>
New content (AJAX etc)
When new content is inserted into the page (either by AJAX, or by sliders that duplicate content etc.), the new content is automatically parsed and lazy-loaded. So you don't need to call the initializer again. It will just work.
jQuery
When initialized, if jQuery is present on the page, the plugins will also make themselves available as jQuery plugins:
$('.my-element').activateOnScroll({
callback: function (element) {
console.log(element);
},
});
