Package Exports
- jquery.transit
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (jquery.transit) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

jQuery Transit
Super-smooth CSS3 transformations and transitions for jQuery
jQuery Transit is a plugin for to help you do CSS transformations and transitions in jQuery.
Refer to the jQuery Transit website for examples.
Usage
Just include jquery.transit.js after jQuery. Requires jQuery 1.4+.
<script src='jquery.js'></script>
<script src='jquery.transit.js'></script>
It is also available via bower and npm.
$ bower install --save jquery.transit
$ npm install --save jquery.transit
Transformations
You can set transformations as you would any CSS property in jQuery.
(Note that you cannot $.fn.animate()
them, only set them.)
$("#box").css({ x: '30px' }); // Move right
$("#box").css({ y: '60px' }); // Move down
$("#box").css({ translate: [60,30] }); // Move right and down
$("#box").css({ rotate: '30deg' }); // Rotate clockwise
$("#box").css({ scale: 2 }); // Scale up 2x (200%)
$("#box").css({ scale: [2, 1.5] }); // Scale horiz and vertical
$("#box").css({ skewX: '30deg' }); // Skew horizontally
$("#box").css({ skewY: '30deg' }); // Skew vertical
$("#box").css({ perspective: 100, rotateX: 30 }); // Webkit 3d rotation
$("#box").css({ rotateY: 30 });
$("#box").css({ rotate3d: [1, 1, 0, 45] });
Relative values are supported.
$("#box").css({ rotate: '+=30' }); // 30 degrees more
$("#box").css({ rotate: '-=30' }); // 30 degrees less
All units are optional.
$("#box").css({ x: '30px' });
$("#box").css({ x: 30 });
Multiple arguments can be commas or an array.
$("#box").css({ translate: [60,30] });
$("#box").css({ translate: ['60px','30px'] });
$("#box").css({ translate: '60px,30px' });
Getters are supported. (Getting properties with multiple arguments returns arrays.)
$("#box").css('rotate'); //=> "30deg"
$("#box").css('translate'); //=> ['60px', '30px']
Animating - $.fn.transition
$('...').transition(options, [duration], [easing], [complete])
You can animate with CSS3 transitions using $.fn.transition()
. It works
exactly like $.fn.animate()
, except it uses CSS3 transitions.
$("#box").transition({ opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3 });
$("#box").transition({ opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3 }, 500); // duration
$("#box").transition({ opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3 }, 'fast'); // easing
$("#box").transition({ opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3 }, 500, 'in'); // duration+easing
$("#box").transition({ opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3 }, function() {..}); // callback
$("#box").transition({ opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3 }, 500, 'in', function() {..}); // everything
You can also pass duration and easing and complete as values in options
, just like in $.fn.animate()
.
$("#box").transition({
opacity: 0.1, scale: 0.3,
duration: 500,
easing: 'in',
complete: function() { /* ... */ }
});
Tests
Transit has a unique test suite. Open test/index.html
to see it. When
contibuting fixes, be sure to test this out with different jQuery versions and
different browsers.
Alternatives
Velocity.js (recommended!)
- Pros: optimized for situations with hundreds of simultaneous transitions. Lots of extra features.
- Pros: no jQuery dependency, great syntax.
- Cons (at time of writing): no iOS support (doesn't use
translate3d
), some IE bugs, no 3D transforms, no animation queue.
- Pros: transparently overrides
$.fn.animate()
to provide CSS transitions support. - Cons: transparently overrides
$.fn.animate()
. No transformations support.
- Pros: Tons of transformations.
- Cons: No CSS transition support; animates via
fx.step
.
- Pros: simply provides rotation.
- Cons: simply provides rotation. No transitions support.
