easeljs-react

npm version

React/EaselJS bindings with React Reconciler

Description

easeljs-react is a JavaScript library for drawing complex canvas graphics using React. It provides declarative and reactive bindings to the EaselJS Framework. This project is partially forked from react-konva project and re-designed for EaselJS.

Install

npm install easeljs-react

or

yarn add easeljs-react

Requirement

Currently easeljs-react depends on react-reconciler that is used in React Fiber. So dependencies below are required.

  • react ^16.8.2
  • react-dom ^16.8.2
  • react-reconciler ^0.18.0

Usage

import React from "react";
import {
  StageComponent, BitmapComponent, ContainerComponent, ShapeComponent, TextComponent
} from "easeljs-react";
import Graphics = createjs.Graphics;
import Stage = createjs.Stage;
import Container = createjs.Container;
class CanvasComponent extends React.Component {
  stage;
  textContainer;
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    state = {
      image: null,
      bitmapX: 100,
      bitmapY: 100,
      graphics: new Graphics(),
      text: "hello world!"
    };
    // Note: make reference setters and event handlers idendified.
    // avoid passing anonymous function props to Component.
    this.onMouseDown = ev => this.handleMouseDown(ev);
    this.onPressUp   = ev => this.handlePressUp(ev);
    this.setStageRef = n => this.stage = n.stage;
    this.setTextContainerRef = n => this.textContainer = n;
  }
  handleMouseDown(ev) {
    console.log(`down: ${ev.stageX},${ev.stageY}`);
  }
  handlePressUp(ev) {
    console.log(`up: ${ev.stageX},${ev.stageY}`);
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    const image = new Image();
    image.src = "/img/logo.png";  
    image.onload = () => {
      this.setState({image});            
    }
  }
 
  render() {
      return (
          <StageComponent
              autoClear={true}              
              width={1024} height={768}
              ref={this.setStageRef}>
              <BitmapComponent image={this.state.image}
                               x={this.state.bitmapX}
                               y={this.state.bitmapY}
                               onMouseDown={this.onMouseDown}
                               onPressUp={this.onPressUp} />
              <ShapeComponent graphics={this.state.graphics}
                              bounds={new Rectangle(0,0,100,100)}/>
              <ContainerComponent
                x={100} y={200} ref={this.setTextContainerRef} >
                  <TextComponent
                      font={"20pt Arial"}
                      color={"white"}
                      text={this.state.text}/>
              </ContainerComponent>
          </StageComponent>
      )
  }
}

React Dev Tools

You can see EaselJS component tree in your React Developer Tools

Components

EaselJS Classes that inherits from DisplayObject are virtually bound on React Components. Naming conventions are as follows:

  • Stage -> StageComponent
  • Container -> ContainerComponent
  • Shape -> ShapeComponent
  • ...

When using components in your jsx or tsx source code, you must import it.

import {StageComponent} from "easeljs-react"

In module resolution phase, bound components and easeljs's objects (xxxComponent and xxx) are recognized as different. But actually all components except StageComponent are identical to easeljs object.

So you can use bound components as easeljs object:

class CanvasComponent extends React.Component {
  stage;
  shape;  
  setStageRef = n => this.stage = n.stage;
  setShapeRef = n => this.shape = n;  
  render() {
    <StageComponent
        width={640} height={480} ref={this.setStageRef}>
        <ShapeComponent ref={this.setShapeRef} />                       
    </StageComponent>
  }
}

Component Reference in TypeScript

Unfortunatelly, direct reference between bound components and easeljs object doesn't work in TypeScript. This comes from type definition for React.Comopnent<P,S>. ref property for React.Component is defined as Component<any>|Element so that code below cannnot be resolved.

So just call getPublicInstance() method for getting reference to easeljs object:

class CanvasComponent extends React.Component {
  stage: Stage;
  shape: Shape;
  setStageRef = n => this.stage = n.stage;
  setShapeRef = n => this.shape = n.getPublicInstance();
  render() {
    <StageComponent
        width={640} height={480} ref={this.setStageRef}>
        <ShapeComponent ref={this.setShapeRef} />                       
    </StageComponent>
  }
}

PR Welcome!
There are still no code convention or rules. Feel free to open issues and create pull-request.

Be Typed!

We are using TypeScript as primary development language. codes under src directory are active source code and lib are generated codes for publishing, keep it untouch.
