imgload

imgload

imgload loads an image src and fires events (properly fires even if image is cached!).

For radical image loading, use the module built with imgload: Mad Basic Loader.

Getting Started

imgload is meant to be consumed in a CommonJS, Browserify environment (though you can also use a pre-bundled version, more below):

npm i imgload

Usage

// require
var imgload = require('imgload')

// setup
var loadme = imgload('image.jpg')

// start!
loadme.start()

Events

Events are fired. Bind to events like so:

loadme.on('error', function(data) {
	// triggered on image error
})

loadme.on('load', function(data) {
	// triggered on image load
})

loadme.on('always', function(data) {
	// triggered on image load
})

The on method returns this for chainability:

loadme
	.on('error', beep)
	.on('load', bop)
	.on('always', boop)

Bundled Version

If you don't want to mess with a build process you can also include the pre-bundled version found in dist/imgload.bundled.js in your project which exposes imgload() globally.
