momentus v1.0.2

Introduction

• jQuery.momentus is a velocity/momentum event dispatcher for jQuery.
• This plugin monitors mouse-wheel, mouse-drag and swipe(on touch screen) gestures, along with momentum effects.
• Easy to use and compatible with both desktop and mobile devices.
• A common usage scenario is to monitor the coordinates' changes (x or y) to implement any scrolling visual effects.
• Note that mouse-wheel scrolling only affects y-axis.

below are intro in Chinese.

• jQuery.momentus 是一个带有加速度效果的用户手势事件分发器；
• 依赖 jQuery，是一个 jQuery 插件；
• 本插件可以用于监听鼠标滚轮、鼠标拖动、以及在触屏设备上的滑动操作，其变化体现在x和y坐标的改变上；
• 手势操作程度越大，其加速度越大；
• 通常用来实现一些与滚动操作相关的视觉效果；
• 注意鼠标滚轮的动作只会对y轴坐标起效。

Install

run npm install --save momentus

Note: jQuery is required and it's installed as a dependency.

API and usage

$('body').momentus({
    /**
    * {Number} mass : The unitless mass of this Momentus
    * (The larger the mass, the bigger the inertia)
    * (质量越大，惯性越大)
    * default : 1000
    */
    mass: 1000,
    
    /**
     * {Number} u : The friction coefficient
     * (the larger the friction, the quicker it stops)
     * (摩擦系数越大，越快停下)
     * default : 4
     */
    u: 4,
    
    /**
     * {Number} wheelRatio : The amount to divide mousewheel deltas by (to get desired sensitivity)
     * (滚轮灵敏度)
     * default : 1000
     */
    wheel_ratio: 1000,
    
    /**
     * {Number} mouseRatio : The amount to divide mousemove deltas by
     * (鼠标灵敏度)
     * default : 20
     */
    mouse_ratio: 20,
    
    /**
     * {Number} touchRatio : The amount to divide touchmove deltas by
     * (触摸灵敏度)
     * default : 1 
     */
    touch_ratio: 1,
    
    /**
     * {Function} onChange : Callback called when any change is made to position or velocity
     *    @param {Object} coordinates {x: current_x, y: current_y}
     *    @param {Object} velocity {x: current_vX, y: current_vY}
     *    
     * Make use of the changes of coordinates/velocity to let your app shine.
     */
    onChange: function (coordinates, velocity) {
        // console.log(coordinates);
        // console.log(velocity);
        // console.log('---------------');
    }
});
