start()
Returns a Promise that is resolved if the browser supports the mediaDevices, AudioContext and if the user accepts to allow microphone on the web page.
Rejected if unsupported or user denied to allow microphone.
The Promise might not be resolved or rejected if the user doesn't answer the permission popup.
noiseToScroll()
.start()
.then(() => {
console.log('browser support OK and user allowed microphone access'); // noiseToScroll is up and running
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(`unable to start noiseToScroll: ${error}`); // error contain the reason
)};detect()
Returns a Promise that is resolved if the browser supports mediaDevices and AudioContext.
Rejected if unsupported.
noiseToScroll()
.detect()
.then(() => {
console.log('browser support OK'); // ready to start
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(`browser doesn't support: ${error}`);
)};on('event', listener)
Listen to the following events :
- clipping : fired when a noise becomes noticeable according to
clipLevel, no debounce, event is fired 100 times each seconds, listen carefully! - scroll : fired every time the
scrollBymethod is called on thescrollableContainer. - noise : similar to
scrollevent but the first param passed to the listener is the 'volume' that triggered the scroll.
.on() methods can be chained.
noiseToScroll()
.on('noise', (volume) => {
console.log(`volume ${volume} triggered the scroll!`);
});
