transformatrix v1.1.1
transformatrix.js 
A lightweight, fast transformation matrix implementantion in JavaScript.
What?
transformatrix.js enables you you to track the transformation matrix of a 2D plane by applying the transformation just as you would, for example, on an HTML5 <canvas> context.
Installation
npm install transformatrixIt's recommended you use browserify if you're targeting browsers, but you can also simply drop in the main .js file which will export Matrix globally.
Usage
First, import with:
var Matrix = require("transformatrix");The module provides the following:
| Syntax | Description |
|---|---|
new Matrix() | creates and returns a new, untouched transformation Matrix |
m.translate(x, y) | applies a translation to Matrix m |
m.scale(scaleX, scaleY) | scales Matrix m by scaleX, scaleY |
m.rotate(radians) | rotates Matrix m by the specified number of radians |
m.inverse() | returns a Matrix that is the inverse of m |
m.multiply(n) | returns a Matrix that is the product of m and n |
m.reset() | resets Matrix m to the default, transformation-free state |
m.transformPoint(x, y) | transforms the point (x, y) through m, returns [new_x, new_y] |
m.transformVector(x, y) | transforms the vector (x, y) through m, returns [new_x, new_y] |
Tip: where appropriate, the functions above return a Matrix instance, which means you can chain them: m.inverse().multiply(2).
