asset-preloader v0.1.4

asset-preloader

A tiny asset preloader for the browser via XHR2. It can preload assets of different file types and composite progress together, with support for multiple event subscriptions.

Get started

Install

yarn add asset-preloader
# or
npm install --save asset-preloader

Use

import { createPreloader } from 'asset-preloader'

const preloader = createPreloader()

const urls = [
  'https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ForBiggerEscapes.mp4',
  'https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4',
]

urls.forEach((url) => preloader.load(url))

preloader.start()

// event subscriptions
preloader.onComplete((assets) => {
  console.log('completed', assets)
})

preloader.onProgress((event) => {
  console.log(Math.round(event.progress * 100) + '%')
})

preloader.onFetched((assets) => {
  console.log('fetched', assets)
})

preloader.onError((assets) => {
  console.log('error', assets)
})

Examples

Canceling

The asset preloader can be canceled at any time during loading. When calling preload.cancel() all assets already preloaded will be available for use, but the download of pending assets will be abandoned and status will be set to 0.

preload.onCancel((items) => {
  console.log(items)
})

preload.cancel()
