Demo

Installation

Install from npm and import it into your bundle:

npm i @hirasso/thumbhash-custom-element

import ThumbHashElement from "thumbhash-custom-element";
ThumbHashElement.init();

Or include the minified production file from a CDN:

<script type="module">
  import ThumbHashElement from "https://unpkg.com/@hirasso/thumbhash-custom-element@0?module";
  ThumbHashElement.init();
</script>

Usage

Markup

If the script is installed an initialized, you can start adding <thumb-hash> to your markup:

<figure>
+  <thumb-hash value="YTkGJwaRhWUIt4lbgnhZl3ath2BUBGYA" aria-hidden="true"></thumb-hash>
  <img src="https://example.com/image.jpg" loading="lazy" width="32" height="32" alt="My large lazy-loaded image">
</figure>

The custom element will automatically create a canvas with the thumbhash image for you:

<figure>
+  <thumb-hash value="YTkGJwaRhWUIt4lbgnhZl3ath2BUBGYA" aria-hidden="true">
+    <canvas width="32" height="32" data-thumb-hash-canvas style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"></canvas>
+  </thumb-hash>
  <img src="https://example.com/image.jpg" loading="lazy" width="32" height="32" alt="My large lazy-loaded image">
</figure>
