ngus

Famo.us Mixed Mode in Angular 2

v0.0.2

ngus gives Angular 2 developers access to Famo.us DOMElement and Mesh inside of templates. This seed project sets up the very minimal needed to develop ngus projects.

ngus allows developers to declare Famous Components like DOMElement and Mesh in Angular 2 template syntax. Bind properties on fa-node, fa-element, and fa-mesh to Angular Components.

    <fa-node [origin]="[0.5,0.5,0.0]"
             [align]="[0.25,0.25,0.0]"
             [sizeMode]="['absolute','absolute', 'absolute']"
             [absoluteSize]="[200,200,200]"
             [opacity]="0.25"
             [component]="famousComponent">
             <fa-element [properties]="{backgroundColor:'cyan', textAlign:'center', paddingTop: '40%'}"
                         [content]="'<h5>Hello World</h5>'">
             </fa-element>
    </fa-node>

Create your own Famous Components inside ES6 Classes. In the example below, famousComponent is a property on the Class App bound to the [component] property in the template above.

class App {
  famousComponent: Object;
  constructor() {

      this.famousComponent = {
        id: null,
        node: null,
        onMount: function (node) {
            this.id = node.addComponent(this);
            node.requestUpdate(this.id);
            this.node = node;
        },
        onUpdate: function (time) {
            this.node.setRotation(0,time / 832,0);
            this.node.requestUpdateOnNextTick(this.id);
        }
      };
  }
}

ngus is written in Typescript, however you can choose to write your Angular 2 apps in ES5 or ES6. npm install ngus will install the latest version of the ngus library. ngus is transpiled into amd, commonjs, systemjs, and ES6 modules. You can find these variants nside the /dist folder.

• NOTE: ngus and Angular 2 are very early in development and not ready for deployment to a Production environment.
