Namespaces

monet.core

animation-frame [fn]

Sets a loop calling fn at 60fps

monet.canvas

Inside monet.canvas there two types of functions. Ones for manipulating the canvas and entities the monet way, and the others are a straight API to the JS canvas functions.

Monet canvas and entities

These are monet specific functions for handling canvas drawing and animation the monet way.

The usual workflow is calling init and getting the monet-canvas that returns, and then start adding entities with add-entity. An entity can be created with the entity function.

add-entity [mc k ent]

remove-entity [mc k]

get-entity [mc k]

update-entity [mc k func & extra]

clear! [mc]

entity [v update draw]

Returns a entity map

{:value v
 :draw draw
 :update update})

draw-loop [{:keys [canvas updating? ctx active entities] :as mc}]

Bare draw loop, handled by init restart stop stop-updating start-updating. No need to manipulate it directly.

monet-canvas [elem context-type]

Context type defaults to 2d.

{:canvas elem
 :ctx ctx
 :entities (js-obj)
 :updating? (atom true)
 :active (atom true)}

init [canvas & [context-type]]

Initializes and returns a monet-canvas based on the canvas dom element and the context-type passed.

stop [mc]

Stops the canvas animation and loop. To restart use restart

restart [mc]

Reactivates a stopped monet-canvas.

stop-updating [mc]

Stops updating the entities on each loop tick.

start-updating [mc]

Starts updating the entities on each loop tick.

Canvas drawing functions

Idiomatic clojure functions to canvas API. Unless specified, they return the received context for chaining purposes

For more info on what the functions do look at the camel case versions in JS docs (for example the mozilla developer network)

In parameters ctx refers to a dom canvas object in function signatures.

get-context [canvas type]

Returns the CanvasRenderingContext of a dom canvas element. type has to be one of '2d' or '3d'

begin-path [ctx]

close-path [ctx]

fill [ctx]

stroke [ctx]

clear-rect [ctx {:keys [x y w h]}]

stroke-rect [ctx {:keys [x y w h]}]

fill-rect [ctx {:keys [x y w h]}]

circle [ctx {:keys [x y r]}]

text [ctx {:keys [text x y]}]

font-style [ctx font]

fill-style [ctx color]

stroke-style [ctx color]

stroke-width [ctx w]

stroke-cap [ctx cap]

move-to [ctx x y]

line-to [ctx x y]

alpha [ctx a]

composition-operation [ctx operation]

Accepts keyword or string as operation

text-align [ctx alignment]

Accepts keyword or string as alignment

text-baseline [ctx alignment]

Accepts keyword or string as alignment

get-pixel [ctx x y]

Gets the pixel value as a hash map of RGBA values Ex: {:red 0 :green 0 :blue 0 :alpha 0}

save [ctx]

restore [ctx]

rotate [ctx angle]

scale [ctx x y]

translate [ctx x y]

transform

transform
  [ctx m11 m12 m21 m22 dx dy]
  [ctx {:keys [m11 m12 m21 m22 dx dy]}]

Multiplies a custom transformation matrix to the existing HTML5 canvas transformation according to the follow convention:

[ x']   [ m11 m21 dx ] [ x ]
[ y'] = [ m12 m22 dy ] [ y ]
[ 1 ]   [ 0   0   1  ] [ 1 ]

draw-image

draw-image
  [ctx img x y]
  [ctx img {:keys [x y] :as params}]
  [ctx img {:keys [x y w h] :as params}]
  [ctx img {:keys [sx sy sw sh dx dy dw dh] :as params}]

Draws the image onto the canvas at the given position. If a map of params is given, the number of entries is used to determine the underlying call to make.

quadratic-curve-to

quadratic-curve-to
  [ctx cpx cpy x y]
  [ctx {:keys [cpx cpy x y]}]

bezier-curve-to

bezier-curve-to
  [ctx cp1x cp1y cp2x cp2y x y]
  [ctx {:keys [cp1x cp1y cp2x cp2y x y]}]

rounded-rect [ctx {:keys [x y w h r]}]

Stroke a rectangle with rounded corners of radius r pixels.

monet.geometry

Pathing functions

distance [origin target]

Bounding functions

bottom-right [{:keys [x y w h r]}]

top-left [{:keys [x y r]}]

in-radius? [origin obj radius]

collision? [obj obj2]

contained? [container obj]

in-bounds? [obj x2 y2]
