@swim/view
@swim/view provides a unified HTML, SVG, and Canvas view hierarchy, with integrated controller architecture, animated procedural styling, and constraint-based layouts. @swim/view is part of the @swim/ui framework.
Installation
npm
For an npm-managed project,
npm install @swim/view
to make it a dependency. TypeScript sources will be installed intonode_modules/@swim/view/main
. Transpiled JavaScript and TypeScript definition files install intonode_modules/@swim/view/lib/main
. And a pre-built UMD script can be found innode_modules/@swim/view/dist/main/swim-view.js
.Browser
Browser applications can load
swim-ui.js
—which bundles the @swim/view library—along with itsswim-core.js
dependency, directly from the Swim CDN.<script src="https://cdn.swim.ai/js/latest/swim-core.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.swim.ai/js/latest/swim-ui.js"></script>
Alternatively, the standalone
swim-system.js
script may be loaded from the Swim CDN, which bundles @swim/view together with all other @swim/system libraries.<script src="https://cdn.swim.ai/js/latest/swim-system.js"></script>
Usage
ES6/TypeScript
@swim/view can be imported as an ES6 module from TypeScript and other ES6-compatible environments.
import * as view from "@swim/view";
CommonJS/Node.js
@swim/view can also be used as a CommonJS module in Node.js applications.
var view = require("@swim/view");
Browser
When loaded by a web browser, the
swim-ui.js
script adds all @swim/view library exports to the globalswim
namespace. Theswim-ui.js
script requires thatswim-core.js
has already been loaded.The
swim-system.js
script also adds all @swim/view library exports to the globalswim
namespace, making it a drop-in replacement for 'swim-core.js' andswim-ui.js
when additional @swim/system libraries are needed.
