Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

This library provides a math class called Trackball that allows users to tumble an object by dragging with a mouse, trackpad, or touch screen. It optionally applies inertia such that the object continues to spin if you flick it.

The trackball does not do anything with quaternions. It simply applies Y rotation (spin) followed by X rotation (tilt).

The trackball avoids rotation about the Z axis. Personally, I like this constraint because I rarely tilt my head in real life. If you find it to be too limiting, try another package such as trackball-controller.

Note that gltumble emulates the behavior used by sketchfab.com except that it does not support zooming.

Example

const canvas = document.getElementsByTagName('canvas')[0];
const trackball = new Trackball(canvas);
const mat = trackball.getMatrix();
console.info(`The 4x4 transform looks like: ${mat}.`);

Install

Install with NPM (npm install gltumble) or Yarn (yarn add gltumble), then:

import Trackball from 'gltumble';

Or use one of the following two CDN builds.

<script src="//unpkg.com/[email protected]/gltumble.min.js"></script> <!-- minified build -->
<script src="//unpkg.com/[email protected]/gltumble.js"></script> <!-- dev build -->

API Reference

new Trackball(element, options)

Constructs a trackball, given an optional DOM element and configuration dictionary. Listens to pointer events on the given DOM element.

trackball.getMatrix()

Returns a flat array of 16 numbers representing the current mat4 transformation.
