Synopsis

Orbis.js is a lazy loader written in TypeScript.

Motivation

The main purpose of this library is to provide a simple way to load assets only when needed instead of loading everything when the main page loads.

`html

`

`javascript
var loader = new Orbis.Loader(
list,
"../public/assets/",
"progressBar",
"progressText"
);

function loadAssets() {
loader.start().then(function(response) {
console.log(response.message);

Example of a service to load several assets when needed.

`javascript
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Loader, IAssets, IResponse } from "@lcluber/orbisjs";

@Injectable({
providedIn: 'root'
})
export class AssetsLoaderService {

list: IAssets = {
shaders: {
folder: "shader",
files: [
{ name: "vertex.glsl" },
{ name: "fragment.glsl" }
]
}
};

loader: Loader = new Loader(
this.list,
'../assets/',
null,
null
);

constructor() { }

public load(): Promise {
return this.loader.start().then((response: IResponse) => {
console.log("complete");
return response.success;
});
}

public get vertexShader(): Object | HTMLImageElement | AudioBuffer | string | null | false {
return this.loader.getContent("vertex.glsl");
}

public get fragmentShader(): Object | HTMLImageElement | AudioBuffer | string | null | false {
return this.loader.getContent("fragment.glsl");
}
}

API Reference

`javascript

// the structure of loader.start() promise response.
interface IResponse {
success: boolean,
message: string
};

interface IAssets {
[key: string]: { // type
folder: string;
files: IAsset[];
};
}

interface IAsset {
name: string;
params?: IParams | null;
}

interface IParams {
[key: string]: string | number | boolean | Array;
}

class Asset implements IAsset {
name: string;
params: IParams | null;
xhr: XHR | null;
isValid: boolean;
}

class XHR {
path: string;
extension: string;
type: string;
response: Object | HTMLImageElement | AudioBuffer | string | null;
request: Request;

class Loader(
assets: IAssets,
assetsPath: string,
progressBarId?: string,
progressTextId?: string
);

// Starts loading the assets
loader.start(): Promise {}
// Returns the asset object
loader.getAsset(name: string): Asset | false {}
// Returns only the response of the xhr request.
loader.getContent(name: string): Object | HTMLImageElement | AudioBuffer | string | null | false {}
// Returns a list of assets by type
loader.getList(type: string): Asset[] | false {}

// Reset the progress bar before starting a new loading process
loader.resetProgress(): void;

// Log levels from @lcluber Mouette.js logger library
type LevelName = "info" | "trace" | "warn" | "error" | "off";
loader.setLogLevel(name: LevelName): LevelName {}
loader.getLogLevel(): LevelName {}
