canvas-parallax v0.2.3

Canvas Parallax

This class will create a canvas element to draw a parallax background image

Latest Release Notes

The depth parameter has been refined. Initially, it was defined in pixel units. However, to enhance responsiveness and adaptability across different devices, it has been changed to a percentage-based value. After updating, you may need to adjust the depth value to correct the parallax effect.

Example

Canvas Parallax Example on CodePen

Installation

npm i canvas-parallax

Usage

HTML

<section class="banner">
    <img src="https://example.com/image.png" alt="Banner Image" />
</section>

JavaScript

import CanvasParallaxController from 'canvas-parallax';

const banner = document.querySelector('.banner');
const image = banner.querySelector('img');

const CanvasParallax = new CanvasParallaxController({
    // The depth is the pixel movement of the image - 200 is 100px up and 100px down
    depth: 200,
});

Put the canvas into the document

banner.appendChild(CanvasParallax.canvas.element);

We can load image src URLs from the DOM

// The"50% 50%" is the main focus point of the image, it can be set to 0% 0% for top left hand corner or 100% 100% for bottom right hand corner etc.
CanvasParallax.load(image.src, "50% 50%");
