rytm-webflow v2.1.5

rytm-webflow

Rytm webflow pack is used to make websites rendered on the server (using a PHP or other back-end) more dynamic.
A static website can be transformed into something we call a pseudo single page application (SPA). The pack includes ASwap - a framework under developement by Rytm.Digital since 2016 which uses AJAX / fetch to first load and then swap the page's content in user's browser.
This package comes with a handy WebflowView and WebflowListView.
Another future rytm-webflow includes is ShowUp - a ScrollMagic.js wrapper which can be integrated with ASwap.

Install using NPM:

$ npm install rytm-webflow --save

Dependencies

• gsap
• imagesloaded
• scrollmagic
• scrollmagic-plugin-gsap

ASwap

Basic usage example

In your HTML for each request you neeed a wrapper (default wrapper selector: #stage)
Inside a wrapper you can have multiple view instances. Each view uses a name defined in data-as-view and an unique id defined in data-as-id

<div id="stage">
  <div data-as-view="item" data-as-id="uid">
    ...
  </div>
</div>

Init ASwap in your JS

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init()

More examples

Controllers

To programm some interaction within your ASwap views create a controller

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

class ItemController extends RytmWebflow.Controller {
  addEventListeners() {
    // ...do your stuff
  }
  removeEventListeners() {
    // ...undo your stuff
  }
}

And pass the controller class to the routes parameter

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'
import ItemController from './ItemController'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init({
  routes: {
    "item" : {
      controller: ItemController
    }
  }
})

Read more about it -> Controller class

If you need your controller to wait until all view's images are loaded you can use the ControllerImgLoad class instance. This will trigger view.show() not before images are loaded. While images are being loaded an as-images-loading class name will be added to the view's container.
Usage example:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

class MyController extends RytmWebflow.ControllerImgLoad {
  loadImagesComplete() {
    super.loadImagesComplete();
    // ...do your stuff...
  }
}

If you are using the ControllerImgLoad - to hide the view before the show animation is triggered you can add some CSS, eg:

.as-images-loading {
  display: none;
}

Views

If you need some fancy animations to show / hide your views you can create view instances.

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

class ItemView extends RytmWebflow.View {
  show(container) {
    // ...do your GreenSock stuff 
  }
  hide(container) {
    // ...do your GreenSock stuff 
  }
}

Then include the ItemView class in the routes parameter

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'
import ItemController from './ItemController'
import ItemView from './ItemView'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init({
  routes: {
    "item" : {
      controller: ItemController,
      view: ItemView
    }
  }
})

Sample params

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'
import { trace } from 'rytm-helpers'
import routes from './routes'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init({
  animationTimeHide: 900,
  animationTimeShow: 1200,
  preloadOnHover: true,
  routes,
  trace,
})

Params

Controller class

View class

Global events

You also can pass custom methods to the global ASwap instance events, eg:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init(params, {
  onRequestLoad: () => {  },
  onViewHidden: () => { }
})

Bootstrap integration

Bootstrap v5

A common situation is to hide all Bootstrap offcanvases or modals when an ASwap page transition is in made. To do so just call the RytmWebflow.bootsrap5.hideFlyovers() method. You can also hide offcanvases or modals separatly by calling the RytmWebflow.bootsrap5.hideOffcanvases() or RytmWebflow.bootsrap5.hideModals() methods.
A basic usage example:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init(params, {
  onViewHide: () => {
    RytmWebflow.bootsrap5.hideFlyovers()
  },
})

WebflowView

WebflowView is an universal ASwap View which can be used with the Webflow syntax - a minified way to describe an animation, it's duration (time), easing, delay or the trigger. Eg. y:100,o:0 will animate an element from: y:100px and opacity: 0 to it's current state. Go to Webflow syntax for more.

Basic usage example

Define the route:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init({
  routes: {
    "webflow" : {
      controller: RytmWebflow.Controller,
      view: RytmWebflow.WebflowView
    }
  }
})

Add data attributes to the cointainer element:

<div id="stage">
  <div data-as-view="webflow" data-as-id="uid">
    ...
  </div>
</div>

Animate any element within the WebflowView container using the Webflow syntax inside the webview attributes (initial, show, hide):

<div data-webview-initial="o:0" data-webview-show="o:1,t:.5" data-webview-hide="o:0,t:.4">
  ...
</div>

or (more complex example):

<div data-webview-initial="x:-10,y:50" data-webview-show="x:0,y:0,t:.5,d:.15,e:power3.out" data-webview-hide="x:10,y:-25,t:.4,d:.2,e:power2.in">
  ...
</div>

Stagger - animate any list of items

Animate elements nested under the WebflowView container when scrolled into viewport by using stagger data attributes (initial, show, hide) and the data-webset attribute:

<ul data-stagger-initial="o:0" data-stagger-show="o:1,t:.5,stagger:.1" data-stagger-hide="o:0,t:.4,stagger:.1" data-webset="selector:li">
  <li>...</li>
  <li>...</li>
</ul>

Scrollmagic - animate elements when scrolled into viewport

Scroll-triggered-animations of any element inside the WebflowView container. Use the webscroll data attributes (initial, show, hide):

<div data-webscroll-initial="o:0" data-webscroll-show="o:1,t:.5" data-webscroll-hide="o:0,t:.3">
  ...
</div>

Use the webset data attribute to pass some additional parameters, eg. the trigger element. This can be helpful when animating any element in the Y axis, eg:

<div data-webset="trigger:parent" data-webscroll-initial="y:100" data-webscroll-show="y:0,t:.5,e:power3.out" data-webscroll-hide="o:0,t:.4">
  ...
</div>

By default scroll-troggered animations are only fired once. You can change this by setting the fireOnce parameter to false, example:

<div data-webset="fireOnce:false" data-webscroll-initial="o:0" data-webscroll-show="o:1,t:.5">
  ...
</div>

WebflowListView

The WebflowListView enables staggered show animation for elements which implement the WebflowView Scrollmagic animations.

Basic usage example

Define the route:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

RytmWebflow.aswap.init({
  routes: {
    "list" : {
      controller: RytmWebflow.Controller,
      view: RytmWebflow.WebflowListView
    }
  }
})

Add data attributes to the cointainer element. Inside the container place elements that include the webscroll data attributes (initial, show, hide):

<div id="stage">
  <ul data-as-view="list" data-as-id="uid" data-webset="selector:li,stagger:.1">
    <li data-webscroll-initial="o:0" data-webscroll-show="o:1,t:.5" data-webscroll-hide="o:0,t.4">...</li>
  </ul>
</div>

ShowUp

ShowUp makes creating gsap scroll-triggered-animations much faster. It can be used to show content while user scrolls down the page. It can also be used for parallax like animations. ShowUp comes with the Webflow syntax. Go to Webflow syntax for more.

Webflow usage example

To enable ShowUp call the init method in your JS:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

RytmWebflow.showUp.init()

If you are working on a SPA or using ASwap the only thing you need to do is call the rebuild method on each view load. Check out the ASwap example:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

const events = {
  onViewSwapComplete: () => {
    RytmWebflow.showUp.rebuild()
  }
}
RytmWebflow.aswap.init({}, events)

To implement ShowUp on your HTML add a data-webflow or data-webpara attribute to DOM elements which will describe the animation

<!-- From opacity: 0 in .4s -->
<div data-webflow="o:0,t:.4">...</div>

Add easing for your animations

<!-- gsap easing -->
<div data-webflow="x:-10vw,t:.5,e:expo.out">...</div>

Delay animations

<!-- delay by .3s -->
<div data-webflow="x:-20,t:.5,d:.3">...</div>

Trigger element

By default the ScrollMagic.Scene is triggered by the element itself. Also it is triggered once the element becomes visible (at the window bottom). You can override these defaults using the data-webset attribute.
To specyfy an offset:

<!-- offset: 100px from bottom up -->
<div data-webflow="o:0" data-webset="offset:100">...</div>

<!-- offset: window center -->
<div data-webflow="o:0" data-webset="offset:center">...</div>

<!-- offset: window top -->
<div data-webflow="o:0" data-webset="offset:top">...</div>

To specyfy a trigger element:

<!-- target -->
<div data-webflow="o:0" data-webset="trigger:#myTarget">...</div>

Hide animation

You can specify a hide transition (eg. for ASwap View to hide elements) Separate show and hide animation using ;

<!-- show, hide -->
<div data-webflow="x:-30,t:.5;x:15,t:.3">...</div>

To start the hide animation on each dom element call the hide() method

RytmWebflow.showUp.hide()

An ASwap example implementing ShowUp along with the hide animation:

import RytmWebflow from 'rytm-webflow'

const events = {
  onViewSwapComplete: () => {
    RytmWebflow.showUp.rebuild()
  },
  onViewHide: () => {
    RytmWebflow.showUp.hide()
  }
}
RytmWebflow.aswap.init({}, events)

Parallax usage example

Parallax like animation:

<!-- parallax duration 100% - by container height -->
<div data-webpara="x:100" data-webset="duration:100%">...</div>

Duration can be relative to viewport:

<!-- parallax duration 30vh - by viewport height -->
<div data-webpara="s:1.2" data-webset="duration:30vh">...</div>

When moving elements in the Y axis you can use the parent trigger hook:

<!-- parallax triggered by parent Node -->
<div>
  <div data-webpara="y:-100" data-webset="duration:100%,trigger:parent"></div>
</div>

<div data-webpara="x:400" data-webset="duration:100%">Parallax duration 100%</div>
<div data-webpara="x:400,e:back.out" data-webset="duration:40vh">Parallax  duration 40vh, ease: Back</div>
<div >parent TRIGGER
  <div data-webpara="y:-500,r:180" data-webset="duration:100%,trigger:parent">Parallax Y</div>
</div>

You can use the parser functions to implement your own view related methods using the Webflow syntax:
