HTML

JavaScript

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      sample: {
        colors: ['red', 'green', 'blue'],
        interval: 3000,
        transition: {
          duration: 1000
        }
      }

API

The main data needed by the directive is an object with 3 required fields colors:Array, intervale:Number, transition:[Object, duration:Number].

ObjectTypeDecription

colors

Array

Array of string colors. E.g. #fff, #000000, red, rgb(), rgba().

interval

Number (millis)

Interval indicates how often the color should change.

transition.duration

Number (millis)

The duration of transition timing.

Modifiers

There 2 modifiers for this version, the hover and random.

ModifierUsageDescription

random

v-breathing-colors.random

Using the random modifier will... you know, change the colors in random.

hover

v-breathing-colors.hover

Unlike the auto, hover will disrespect the inverval from the data object. The color will change in the auto order 0,1,2,3,etc.. but only when the onmouseover event was triggered.

Tips

  1. Modifiers can be combined like v-breathing-colors.random.hover.

  2. For best result, always keep in mind that the interval should always be greater of at least 200% than the transition.duration. Say, the transition.duration is 1000, the minimum interval should be at least 2000.

More coming soon

More modifiers will be added for future versions.
