Attractors

large

See this playlist of examples on Youtube.

Using as a dependency

Install with npm install attractors or just clone this repository.

Add a canvas to your page: <canvas id="paint-canvas"></canvas>

Configure the library with a global config object (sorry)

<script type="text/javascript">
var config = {
  id: 'paint-canvas',
  init_scale: 1,
  text: 'A T T R A C T O R S',
  text_position_x: 50,
  text_position_y: 33,
  text_width_ratio: 12,
  background_color: '#57A3BD',
  nb_attractors: 25,
  particule_density: 900,
  line_width: 0.35,
  nogo_zone: false,
  color1: '#DBCEC1',
  color2: '#F7F6F5',
  pixelratio: window.devicePixelRatio,
  root: 'node_modules/attractors/'
}
</script>	

If you use the text attribute, load the opentype library: <script src="node_modules/attractors/lib/opentype.min.js"></script>

Load the module: <script src="node_modules/attractors/ninis.js"></script>

Configuration

These describe the attributes of the config object that is expected from the library.

Setup

id: ID of the DOM canvas on which to paint

Particles

background_color: Color to be used as background color. Expects a Canvas compatible color (example: #57A3BD)

line_width: Width of the particle strokes, in pixel.

color1: Color to be used for particle trails (example: '#DBCEC1')

color2: Secondary color to be used for particle trails (example: '#F7F6F5')

shadow_scale: Scale of the shadow, defaults to 1.

nb_attractors: Number of attractors in the piece

particule_density: Density of particle to create, for a square of 1000 * 1000.

init_scale: The scale at which particles are initialized. 1 means they will spread on an area the size of the screen. 2 twice the size of the screen. 0.5 half the size of the screen.

Text

text: String of text to display that will interact with particles

text_position_x

text_position_y

text_width_ratio

Advanced rendering parameters

pixelratio: Number of points in a screen pixel (example: Set to 2 on Retina screens). Defaults to window.devicePixelRatio

No Go zones

nogo_zone: Boolean, if set to true, will instanciate areas without particles.

nogoCircles : Array of objects contaning data for empty circles.

SVG Export

svg: If set to true, will keep an SVG version of the render in memory

one_path: If set to true, the created SVG will be stored into one single path.
