A precision analog clock-and-gauge library, animated and skinnable, in 500 lines of standard JavaScript with no dependencies.
Visit the Revolve.js website or check out the /examples folder for code examples.
Install with Yarn or NPM:
yarn install revolve.js
# -- or --
npm install revolve.jsOr download the revolve.js file directly.
See the /examples folder for live code examples.
The quickest way to use the library is to link to the revolve.pkgd.js file and add a canvas element with the data-revolve attribute set to either clock or gauge.
<head>
<!-- yada yada -->
<script src="dist/revolve.pkgd.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- other stuff -->
</head>
<body>
<canvas width="256" height="256" data-revolve="clock" data-theme="dark"></canvas>
</body>Alternately, call the Revolve.clock or Revolve.gauge method directly in JavaScript.
Revolve.clock( can.getContext("2d"), opt );
Revolve.gauge( can.getContext("2d"), opt );Revolve.js ships with over a dozen predefined themes and the ability to define your own. The current predefined themes are:
classicdarkdartboarddecimaleliteinformaticmilitaryofficesimplespeedometerstopwatchtheoryunitlessuptown
To use a theme, specify the theme name in the options object...
Revolve.clock(ctx, { theme: 'office' } );
Revolve.gauge(ctx, { theme: 'pressure' } );...or use the data-theme attribute on a Revolve.js canvas:
<canvas width="256" height="256" data-revolve="clock" data-theme="office"></canvas>
<canvas width="256" height="256" data-revolve="gauge" data-theme="pressure"></canvas>Every Revolve.js clock and gauge is driven by an editable JSON theme description.
- Robust on-screen rendering of analog clocks and gauges with HTML canvas.
- Precision alignment and geometrical positioning of clock elements.
- Continuous and discrete animation with millisecond precision.
- Custom clock and gauge axes (for example, to implement a [pressure gauge][1]).
- Scalable graphics at any size or level of zoom.
- Multiple predefined themes, from classic office clocks to speedometers.
- JSON-driven theming system allows clock and gauge customization to the pixel.
- Clean ES6 JavaScript with a permissive MIT license and no dependencies.
- Dedicated project website at https://revolvejs.org.
- Package-friendly via Yarn and/or NPM; supports AMD, CommonJS, and browser-global approaches.
