A lightweight JavaScript library written in TypeScript to create isometric projections using SVGs
https://elchininet.github.io/isometric/
npm install @elchininet/isometric
yarn add @elchininet/isometric
It is possible to include a compiled version of the package directly in an HTML file. It will create global variables that can be accessed from anywhere in your JavaScript code.
- Copy the JavaScript file
isometric.web.js
, located in thedist
folder - Put it in the folder that you prefer in your web server
- Include it in your HTML file
<script src="wherever/you/installed/isometric.web.js"></script>
const {
IsometricCanvas,
IsometricPath,
IsometricRectangle,
IsometricCircle
} = require('@elchininet/isometric');
import {
IsometricCanvas,
IsometricPath,
IsometricRectangle,
IsometricCircle
} from '@elchininet/isometric';
/* Use it directly in your JavaScript code */
IsometricCanvas;
IsometricPath;
IsometricRectangle;
IsometricCircle;
/* Or access to the global variable if there is a variable with this name in the same scope */
window.IsometricCanvas;
window.IsometricPath;
window.IsometricRectangle;
window.IsometricCircle;
npm run build
Transpiles the TypeScript code and creates two bundles in the dist
folder (index.js
for Node environments and isometric.web.js
to use directly in the browser).
npm run lint
Runs eslint in source files.
npm run test
Runs tests.
npm run demo
Opens a development server that provides live reloading using webpack-dev-server. Some demo examples located in the @demo
folder will be shown. You can modify the code of the demos and the changes will be live reloaded in the browser.
