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();
$timeout($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
