shake2.js v1.0.1

Shake.js

A custom 'shake' event JavaScript plugin for mobile web browsers using device accelerometer.

Installation

• NPM: npm install shake2.js

Dependencies

Your web browser must support the devicemotion event for this plugin to work. Shake.js uses built-in feature detection to determine if it can run in your web browser. It will terminate silently on non-supporting browsers.

• DeviceOrientation Event Specification

Setup

For CommonJS using NPM:

const Shake = require('shake2.js');

For ES6 Import using NPM:

import Shake from 'shake2.js';

In the browser:

<script src="./node_modules/shake2.js/dist/index.js"></script>

Use

// Create an instance
const myShakeEvent = new Shake({
    threshold: 15, // optional shake strength threshold
    timeout: 1000 // optional, determines the frequency of event generation
});

// Start listening to device motion:
myShakeEvent.start();

// Register a `shake` event listener on `window` with your callback:
window.addEventListener('shake', shakeEventDidOccur, false);

// Dunction to call when shake event occurs
function shakeEventDidOccur () {
    // Do something awesome!
}

// You can stop listening for shake events like so:
window.removeEventListener('shake', shakeEventDidOccur, false);

// To stop listening to device motion, you can call:
myShakeEvent.stop();
