css-to-mat4 v2.0.2

css-to-mat4

deprecated in favour of mat4-css-parse

Converts a matrix string like "matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0)" or "matrix3d(...)" into a 4x4 matrix (flat array).

Simple example:

var parse = require('css-to-mat4')
var str = 'matrix(0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1)'

var mat = parse(str)
console.log(mat.length)   // -> 16
console.log(mat[4] === 1) // -> true

Letting the browser compute a matrix from a list of CSS transforms:

var style = require('dom-css')
var parse = require('css-to-mat4')
var getPrefix = require('prefix-style')

var prefix = getPrefix('transform')

if (prefix) { //transforms supported
    //apply some transforms with a complex CSS string
    style(div, 'transform', 'translateX(20px) rotateX(14deg)')

    //get computed style, which will be a flat matrix or matrix3d string
    var str = window.getComputedStyle(div)[prefix]

    //parse as a 4x4 matrix
    var mat = parse(str)
    
    //do something with your matrix
}

Usage

toMat4(str[, out])

Converts the "matrix()" or `"matrix3d()" string into a 16-float array representing a 4x4 matrix. 2D matrices will be stored in the upper left of a 4x4 identity matrix.

You can specify an out matrix parameter, otherwise it will create a new 16-length array.
