Usage as Svelte Component

<script>
import Slideshow from 'svelte-ken-burns'
</script>

<Slideshow {slides} {options} />

The types for slides and options should be avalable when coding, but here they are:

export type PanZoom = {
  x?: number, // the horizontal direction for the focal point, in percentage of width, as a number
  y?: number, // the vertical direction for the focal point, in percentage of height, as a number
  zoom?: number, // the scale applied to the image, as a number, e.g. 1.25 (numbers below 1 will result in borked display)
  tx?: number, // set automatically in the component
  ty?: number, // set automatically in the component
}

export type Slide = KenBurnsImageParams & {
  image: string|{
    src: string
    alt?: string
    [key:string]: Value // Value from SvelteCMS
  }
  start?: PanZoom,
  end?: PanZoom,
}

export type SlideshowOptions = {
  slideDuration:number // how long each slide is visible
  fadeDuration:number // how long the fade-in is when slides transition
  fadeOutDuration:number // set automatically by the component as fadeDuration * 2
  iterations:number|"infinite" // how many times the slideshow cycles
  endOpacity:number // the opacity for the last slide after the slideshow is done cycling
}
