ngProgress.js
ngProgress is a provider for angular for showing a loading status of something.
Use cases can be fetching external resources, showing a action taking more-than-normal length
or simple loading between the page views. Prefereble, only for resource heavy sites.
Usage
Download ngProgress.js manually or install with bower
$ bower install ngprogress
Include ngProgress.js ( or ngprogress.min.js) and ngProgress.css in your website.
<script src="app/components/ngprogress/ngprogress.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="ngProgress.css">
Set ngProgress as a dependency in your module
var app = angular.module('progressApp', ['ngProgress']);
Inject ngProgressFactory in your controller
var MainCtrl = function($scope, $timeout, ngProgressFactory) {}
Create a instance of the progressbar
$scope.progressbar = ngProgressFactory.createInstance();
Use with the API down below
$scope.progressbar.start();
$timeout(function() {
$scope.progressbar.complete()
}, 1000);
API
- start - Starts the animation and adds between 0 - 5 percent to loading
each 400 milliseconds. Should always be finished with ngProgress.complete()
to hide it
ngProgress.start();
- setHeight - Sets the height of the progressbar. Use any valid CSS value
Eg '10px', '1em' or '1%'
ngProgress.setHeight('10px');
- setColor - Sets the color of the progressbar and it's shadow. Use any valid HTML color
ngProgress.setColor('#fff');
- status - Returns on how many percent the progressbar is at. Should'nt be needed
var status = ngProgress.status();
- stop - Stops the progressbar at it's current location
ngProgress.stop();
- set - Set's the progressbar percentage. Use a number between 0 - 100. If 100 is provided, complete will be called.
ngProgress.set(100);
- reset - Resets the progressbar to percetage 0 and therefore will be hided after it's rollbacked
ngProgress.reset();
- complete - Jumps to 100% progress and fades away progressbar
ngProgress.complete();
- setParent - Changes the parent of the DOM element which visualizes the progress bar
ngProgress.setParent(document.getElementById('container'));
- getDomElement - Gets the DOM element which visizualizes the progress bar. It is wrapped as a jqlite element - https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/function/angular.element
var element = ngProgress.getDomElement();
Releasing a new version
The current (and quite hacky solution, honestly) to make a new release:
-
Update package.json to have new version.
-
Commit changes
-
Run
bower version patch, minor, major
Publishing new Github-pages version
Merge master into gh-pages, run grunt and push to Github
