Types

type ConstructorProps = {
  element?: HTMLElement | null;
  target?: HTMLElement | null;
  delta?: number | 10;
  rotationAngle?: number | 0;
  mouseTrackingEnabled?: boolean | false;
  touchTrackingEnabled?: boolean | true;
  preventDefaultTouchmoveEvent?: boolean | false;
  preventTrackingOnMouseleave?: boolean | false;
  onSwipeStart?: EventHandler;
  onSwiping?: EventHandler;
  onSwiped?: EventHandler;
  onTap?: EventHandler;
};

type EventHandler = {
  (e: Event, data: EventData): void;
};

type EventData = {
  deltaX: number;
  deltaY: number;
  absX: number;
  absY: number;
  duration: number; // ms
  velocity: number; // (px/ms)
};

Props

• element - target event trigger
• target - additionally target event trigger, if specified with the element, will be used by all handlers to trigger the action
• delta - minimal distance in px before a swipe starts
• rotationAngle - rotation angle
• mouseTrackingEnabled - enable mouse tracking
• touchTrackingEnabled - enable touch tracking
• preventDefaultTouchmoveEvent - prevent default touch events while touching
• preventTrackingOnMouseleave - triggered onSwiped callback when the event loses the element's focus
• onSwipeStart - triggered on swipe start (if the delta is passed)
• onSwiping - triggered during swipe
• onSwiped - triggered after swipe
• onTap - triggered when the swipe value is less than the minimum distance (delta)

Methods

• init(): void
• update(options: ConstructorProps): void
• destroy(): void
