jQuery CSS3 Animation Queue

jQuery CSS3 animation queue is a plugin to chain CSS3 animations one at a time, as well as delay the animation until the element is in the browser viewport.

Installation

To install via Bower, simply do the following:

$ bower install jquery-css3-animation-queue --save

or you can install via npm:

$ npm install jquery-css3-animation-queue --save

Basic Usage

1. Include jQuery and jquery-css3-animation-queue.js in your document

<script type="text/javascript" src="./jQuery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./jquery-css3-animation-queue.js"></script>

1. Add the rule to delay the animations to your CSS.

/* Required rule. Add to your CSS file */
.animated.standby {
  -webkit-animation: none !important;
  -o-animation: none !important;
  animation: none !important;
  visibility: hidden;
}

1. Create CSS3 animation rules. Recommendation: use animate.css for a large list of ready animations.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/animate.css/3.5.2/animate.min.css">

1. Add the classes animated and standby to the element you want to animate. Also remember to add whichever classes you need for your animation rules.

Full example:

<h1 class="animated standby fadeIn">Example</h1>

Advanced Usage

The plugin reads the data properties delay and offset on each element.

The delay property determines how much time to wait before animating the next element in the queue. If unset, defaults to 500 milliseconds. This is separate to the actual CSS animation duration and may contain a different value.

<div class="animated standby fadeIn" data-delay="2000">The next element in queue will animate in two seconds.</div>

The offset property determines how much space between the bottom of the browser and the top of the element before the element is added to the active queue. If unset, defaults to 50 pixels. Higher numbers mean the user will have to scroll down more before animation starts.

<div class="animated standby fadeIn" data-offset="200">This element will be added to the animation queue when the space between the bottom of the browser and the top of the element is more than 200 pixels.</div>
