Vue Single File Component to animate text in different decoding styles.

Installation (NPM)

Basic Usage

<template> 
    <vue-hacker-text text="Hacker Text"/>
<template>

<script>
    import Vue from 'vue';
    import VueHackerText from '@/vue-hacker-text.vue';

    export default Vue.extend({

where text is the string you wish to finish decoding to.

Props

Prop | Type | Values | Default | Description ----- | ----- | ----- | ------ | ----- text | String | - | - | Required mode | String | hacker, type, stars | hacker | Choose decoding style speed | String | slow, medium, fast | medium | The speed at which it a character changes. slow = 50ms, medium = 25ms, fast = 5ms probability | Number | 0.005 - 1.0 | 0.01 | The probability of selecting the correct character. typeCharacter | String | - | | | Flashing character used for Type decoder

Changing the probability can fine tune the speed of which the decoding finishes. Selecting fast speed with a high probability will result in an extremely fast decode. Selecting slow speed with a low probability will result in a very slow decode.

The character set used for decoding is 95 characters. So selecting a probability of less than 5% (0.005) does not make sense as it'll be more likely to choose the correct character randomly.

Events

Event | Description ----- | --------- @decodeStart | Event emitted before decoding starts @decodeFinish | Event emitted once completion of decoding

Examples

<vue-hacker-text text="Hacker Text" :probability="0.35" speed="slow"/>

<vue-hacker-text text="Hacker Text" mode="stars" speed="fast"/>

<vue-hacker-text text="Hacker Text" mode="type" typeCharacter="#" :probability="0.35" speed="slow"/>

<vue-hacker-text text="Hacker Text" @decodeStart="startFunction" @decodeFinish="finishFunction"/>

Styling

Wrap the component in a styled div. The component is a simple span so it will inherit any styling from its parent div.

<div class="hacker-text">
    <vue-hacker-text text="Hacker Text"/>
</div>

<style>
    .hacker-text {
        font-weight: 600;
        font-size: 2em;
        color: blue;
    }
</style>
