easiness

...another easing equation library! Why!?

Most easing libraries export functions which take a bunch of arguments, capturing all sorts of wonderful details of an animation, such as start and end values, start and end times, plus the current time. This is a rather complicated way of representing what essentially boils down to a simple interpolation between the values of 0 and 1; anything extra is just noise that distracts from the essence of the calculation. For further information, take a look at Jari Komppa's article Interpolation Tricks where he explains matters much better than I am able.

easiness is a collection of 'pure' easing functions designed to work with domain and range 0..1 - single number in, single number out. Easy-peasy. If you find yourself in a situation where you need to interpolate between other values, each of easiness's functions offers a .mapped() method to derive another single argument function that can map any domain/range you desire.

Installation

$ npm install easiness

Require

var easiness = require('easiness');

API

easiness.$easeFn(x)

Replace $easeFn with one of:

  • linear
  • smooth
  • easeInQuad
  • easeOutQuad
  • easeInOutQuad
  • easeInSine
  • easeOutSine
  • easeInOutSine

easiness.$easeFn.mapped(inStart, inEnd, outStart, outEnd)

Derives a new easing function based on $easeFn that expects an argument in the range inStart..inEnd and interpolates it between outStart..outEnd.

A 2-argument form of mapped() is also available in which inStart and inEnd are assumed to be 0 and 1, respectively. The resulting derived function will interpolate the values in the range 0..1 between outStart and outEnd.
