react-animated-path

Animating SVG shapes in React just became easy! This library utilizes the wonderful libraries flubber and color-interpolate and takes things one step further. Simply specify the fill and d props for the different animation stages and a step from one to zero and you will have crisp, clean SVG animations.

Installation

yarn add react-animated-path

or

npm install react-animated-path

Minimal example

import AnimatedPath from 'react-animated-path'
import * as shapes from './shapes'
import React from 'react'

const MyComponent = () => {
  const [step, setStep] = React.useState(0)

  return (
    <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 100 100">
      <AnimatedPath
        step={step}
        stages={[
          {
            fill: 'blue',
            d: shapes.ONE_NICE_SHAPE,
          },
          {
            fill: '#2d2d2d',
            d: shapes.ANOTHER_NICE_SHAPE,
          },
          {
            fill: 'green',
            d: shapes.A_THIRD_NICE_SHAPE,
          },
        ]}
      />
    </svg>
  )
}

API

props.step

A number from 0 to 1 (inclusive) that determines where in the animation we currently are at.

If we have three steps to our animation, a step of 0.5 would mean that we are exactly at the middle shape/fill.

props.stages

An array of objects that specify the fill and d for the shape at the given distinct step.
