Vue Skycons

This was inspired by Skycons -- a set of ten animated weather glyphs, procedurally generated by JavaScript using the HTML5 canvas tag. They're easy to use, and pretty lightweight, so they shouldn't rain on your parade.

Installation

NPM

npm install --save vue-skycons

YARN

yarn add vue-skycons

Examples

import Vue from "vue";

</template>

<script>
export default {
  methods: {
    onLoad(player) {
      console.log("loaded");
      setInterval(() => {
        if (player.paused) {
          player.play();
        } else {
          player.pause();
        }
      }, 1000);
    },
  },
};
</script>

Animation Speed

The speed attributes is a decimal number to control the animation speed. It is a multiplyer to the original speed. 1 means the normal speed. 0.5 means half the normal speed. 2 means twice as fast as the normal speed.

<template>
  <skycon condition="wind" size="128" speed="1" />
  <skycon condition="wind" size="128" speed="3" />
  <skycon condition="wind" size="128" speed="0.5" />
</template>
