Animating div content populated by AngularJS without jQuery - css

I have a div like this:
<div class="row">
<alert ng-repeat="alert in alerts" type="alert.type" close="closeAlert($index)">{{alert.msg}}</alert>
</div>
I create the alerts in angularjs (and I'm using bootstrap), and while this works great, the visual effect is kind of uncool. As alerts are added to the div, all page content is shoved ungracefully down to make room for the new alert.
I would like to animate the movement so that it is at least smooth. But I don't want to use jQuery. I've played with the CSS3 transitions, but can't seem to get them to work smoothly.
Can I do this where the trigger is a change in div height? How?

you can do it with directives in their link function. i think you wont mind about so small piece on jquery code
myModule.directive('animateRight', function () {
var linker = function (scope, element, attrs) {
var right = function() {
$(this).animate({
{"height": "800px"},
"fast");
})
}
element.on('click', right);
};
return {
restrict:'A',
link:linker
}
})
<div animate-right class="box"></div>

Ok, so I don't like to answer my own question, but this seems like the way to do it...
I used AngularJS 1.2, along with the new ngAnimate module. You need to add angular-animate.js, and reference the animate module, so at the end here's what my modules looked like:
var app = angular.module('tracker', ['$strap.directives', 'ui.bootstrap', 'ngRoute', 'ngAnimate']);
After that, its super simple, and very much CSS3 animations. My alert line ended up with a class repeat-item:
<alert class="repeat-item" type="alert.type" data-ng-repeat="alert in alerts" close="closeAlert($index)">{{alert.msg}}</alert>
And I added some CSS to target that class with the angularjs triggers:
.repeat-item.ng-enter,
.repeat-item.ng-leave {
-webkit-transition: 0.2s linear all;
-moz-transition: 0.2s linear all;
-o-transition: 0.2s linear all;
transition: 0.2s linear all;
}
.repeat-item.ng-enter,
.repeat-item.ng-leave.ng-leave-active {
opacity: 0;
}
.repeat-item.ng-leave,
.repeat-item.ng-enter.ng-enter-active {
opacity: 1;
}
And voila a nice fade in and out animation.
This page really explains very well how to do it. Cheers to Michael Benford for the great link.

transitioning between images in vuejs

I want to create a smooth transition between 2 images with a legend.
The images come from an object-array of images.
Because works only on single tags and components, I've created a component to define the image+legend.
<transition>
<home-image :slide="slide" :key="slide"></home-image>
</transition>
The classes I define are like this
.v-enter-active,
.v-leave-active {
transition: opacity 2s ease-in-out;
}
.v-leave,
.v-enter-to {
opacity: 1;
}
.v-enter,
.v-leave-to {
opacity: 0;
}
The new image is returned by a method
updateSlide() {
this.slide = this.entries[ Math.floor( Math.random() * this.entries.length ) ];
}
where entries is my array defined in data
this.slide is updated in regular intervals, every 10seconds like this, which is defined in the created() section
this.updateSlide();
this.uSlide = setInterval( this.updateSlide, 10000);
The code works, in the sense that a new image is loaded in this.slide every 10 seconds.
However, the transitions work only "half-way".
There is no transition fading out: the "old image" disappears and makes way for the new image fading in.
However, what I'd like is a smooth transition from one to the other.
I've tried more than a couple of ideas including using mode="out-in" and "in-out" but nothing works as I want.
What am I overlooking?

vue v-bind style - smooth changes, not instantly

I use "vuex-module-decorators" and dynamically determine the style in this getter:
<div class="viewport":style="viewportStyleVars">...</div>
get viewportStyleVars() {
const tx = -this.viewportRect.x;
const ty = -this.viewportRect.y;
return {
'--translate-x': `${tx}px`,
'--translate-y': `${ty}px`,
}
}
How to make change happen smoothly, not instantly?
I would be grateful for the hints, I am not familiar with the animation.
You just need to add transition in CSS to the div with class .viewport something like:
.viewport{
transition: all 1s linear;
}
The 1s in the transition, is the time, that the action will take, you can tweak this value to something smaller, like 0.1s, if that suits you better.

How to custom transition for each component?

I have 3 components which I want to show a transition effect when they enter/leave.
There's 1 "main" component and the 2 others show up when you press the associated button. My current sample code is here: https://jsfiddle.net/5aq1k05L/
<transition :name="'step_' + currentView" mode="out-in">
<component :is="currentView"></component>
</transition>
CSS:
.step_componentA-enter-active {
transition: transform 0.4s;
}
.step_componentA-leave-active {
transition: transform 0s;
}
.step_componentA-enter {
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
.step_mainComponent-leave-active {
transition: transform 0.3s;
}
.step_mainComponent-leave-to {
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
.step_componentB-enter-active {
transition: transform 0.4s;
}
.step_componentB-leave-active {
transition: transform 0s;
}
.step_componentB-enter {
transform: translateX(100%);
}
What I am trying to do:
When I click on the "componentA" button, I want that component to slide from the left while "mainComponent" is still visible in the background (not stripped out of elements like now) during the transition.
Same thing for "componentB", except it will slide from the right, and will back to the right when clicking back.
What am I missing? https://jsfiddle.net/5aq1k05L/
Edit 2:
Here a working example with the componentA and componentB that are sliding over the mainComponent -> https://jsfiddle.net/5aq1k05L/8/
I changed the transition to mode:in-out, I added a z-index for each component, and put the components in position:absolute and the app in position:relative
Edit:
Here a working example for your case -> https://jsfiddle.net/5aq1k05L/4/
When you analyse the script step by step, you see that the class when the componentB is leaving is step_mainComponent-leave-active step_mainComponent-leave-to that it makes a classic toggle relative to the mainComponent style.
If you want to use different animations, you should use enter-active-class and leave-active-class etc (see more here) - or put two vars in name, i guess, with a dynamic value relative to the previous view, in the store like currentView is.
It could be like this :
<transition
:name="'step_' + currentView + '_from_' + prevView"
mode="out-in"
>
In the store (you ll need to update the states, mapState, etc.. as well too) :
SET_CURRENT_VIEW(state, new_currentView) {
state.prevView = state.currentView;
state.currentView = new_currentView;
}
Hope it ll help you

Pause/play ALL the CSS animations of every child element

I'm creating a dashboard page which is full of CSS animations. From Bootstrap stuff (animated progress bars) to custom animations.
When you click some of the elements, a near full-screen modal is triggered, which overlaps all the animations, so I want to temporarily pause them all (because of possible performance issues) by adding/removing a class to one of the top elements, and using CSS to pause all animations when that class is set.
This solution would use only a single line of js, just to toggle the class on opening the modal.
My template looks somewhat like this:
<body>
<div class="modal">
<!-- Modal code -->
</div>
<div class="app">
<!-- Template -->
</div>
</div>
Is it possible to add a class to .app which pauses every CSS animation in every child element?
Note 1:
I know you can use the exact opposite of what I request: namely, have a default .animation-play class to one of the top elements, and prefix every child element with an animation with this class, and then remove this class to pause every animation. Just like:
app.animation-play .somediv .somediv .element {
// animation code
}
app.animation-play .somediv .element {
// animation code
}
app.animation-play .somediv .somediv .somediv .somediv .element {
// animation code
}
But then I have to edit a lot of CSS code, and it doesn't look very nice either.
Note 2:
I'm also open for a JS solution, but I would heavily prefer a pure CSS way of achieving this.
You can use a universal selector to target everything when a class of 'paused' is added to your app wrapper, however many CSS linters still warn against using these due to performance impacts.
To be honest the impact is probably minimal these days and many CSS resets for example use them.
You could use something like:
.app.paused * {
animation: none;
}
EDIT:
Looking through the comments above it seems as though the above selector doesn't have enough precedence to overwrite the animations so '!important' has been added.
.app.paused * {
animation: none !important;
transition: none !important;
}
However this is generally not a great idea, I always try to avoid using '!important' at all costs due to the difficulty in maintaining the stylesheet with these selectors in place. If you can overwrite the animations with a greater precedence then it would be better to do so rather than using '!important'.
EDIT 2:
As you mentioned you were open to JS solutions, here is some JS that should clear all the animations within a given selector. I'm not sure what the performance impact of doing it this way is but I added it here just in case someone else prefers to do it only using JS:
let stopAnimationsWrap = document.querySelector('.app');
let stoppedAnims = [];
// Stop animations
document.querySelector('.stop').addEventListener('click', () => {
let appAllEls = stopAnimationsWrap.querySelectorAll('*');
let allElsAr = Array.prototype.slice.call(appAllEls);
allElsAr.forEach((thisEl) => {
let elClass = thisEl.classList[0];
let cs = getComputedStyle(thisEl, null);
let thisAnimation = cs.getPropertyValue('animation-name');
if (thisAnimation !== 'none') {
stoppedAnims.push([elClass, {
'animationName': thisAnimation
}]);
thisEl.style.animationName = 'none';
}
});
});
// Start animations
document.querySelector('.start').addEventListener('click', () => {
stoppedAnims.forEach((thisEl) => {
let domEl = '.' + thisEl[0];
stopAnimationsWrap.querySelector(domEl).style.animationName = thisEl[1].animationName;
});
});
Fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/vu6javb2/14/
.app {
-webkit-animation-play-state: paused; /* Safari 4.0 - 8.0 */
animation-play-state: paused;
}
on hover:
.app:hover {
-webkit-animation-play-state: paused; /* Safari 4.0 - 8.0 */
animation-play-state: paused;
}

Meteor transition effects for auto-updating content

Looking at the meteor leaderboard example, I understand how content in the view templates is bound to functions in the javascript application file. For example, consider this snippet from the view file which defines the "selected" class to determine which name is highlighted yellow:
<template name="player">
<div class="player {{selected}}">
<span class="name">{{name}}</span>
<span class="score">{{score}}</span>
</div>
</template>
The value of {{selected}} is defined and kept up to date in this function from leaderboard.js:
Template.player.selected = function () {
return Session.equals("selected_player", this._id) ? "selected" : '';
};
My question is: How would you add transition effects to this auto updating process? For example, say we wanted the yellow highlighting to fade to white on the existing name, and then fade into yellow on the new name, whenever a new name was clicked. How could we accomplish that in meteor?
The easiest way would be using CSS transitions. Just ensure that the element is preserved (so it isn't replaced on re-draw, just patched):
Template.player.preserve(['.player']);
Then go nuts with the CSS transitions:
.player {
background-color: white;
transition: background-color 500ms linear 0;
-moz-transition: background-color 500ms linear 0;
// etc
}
.player.selected {
background-color: yellow;
}
