Draggable with inertia?

Hi there, 

 

Since this is a question about a premium plugin, I don't know how to create a test case on codepen. But maybe this is an easy fix anyway?

 

I am trying to make use of Draggable like this:

Draggable.create($element, {
  bounds: $wrap,
  edgeResistance: 0.5,
  type: "y,x",
  inertia: true,
});

Here is my gsap import:

import { gsap, CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin, Power4, Linear, Draggable } from 'gsap/all';
gsap.registerPlugin(CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin, Draggable);
gsap.registerEase(Linear, Power4);

...it works, but is not "throwable", meaning, it stops being dragged immediately when I release my mouse. Also snaps back into the bounds instantly on release. I thought I could control this behavior with inertia being set to true?

 

I don't get any warning in my browser console.

Hi there! 🙂

Thanks for joining the club GSAP family!

 

All the bonus plugins are free to use on codepen, so don't worry about giving away any secrets

If you put together a codepen demo I'd be happy to help out. In the interim though - here's a codepen example that might do the job

I bet you just forgot to register InertiaPlugin. Also, you don't need to import the eases anymore - just use the string syntax. I personally prefer to define each import instead of using "gsap/all", but that's totally personal preference. 

 

// OLD
import { gsap, CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin, Power4, Linear, Draggable } from 'gsap/all';
gsap.registerPlugin(CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin, Draggable);
gsap.registerEase(Linear, Power4);

// NEW
import gsap from "gsap";
import ScrollToPlugin from "gsap/ScrollToPlugin";
import CustomEase from "gsap/CustomEase";
import InertiaPlugin from "gsap/InertiaPlugin";
import Draggable from "gsap/Draggable";
gsap.registerPlugin(CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin, InertiaPlugin, Draggable);

If you're still having trouble, we'd be happy to look at a minimal demo on CodePen.

Hi there! I managed to get it working on codepen:

...but I keep having trouble with the bonus plugin in my project. I downloaded the gsap-shockingly-green.zip from my profile and installed the file "gsap-bonus.tgz" with npm install gsap-bonus.tgz --save – but it doesn't install the bonus files in my node-modules folder. Screenshot #1: the contents of the .tgz file. Screenshot #2: the files in my node_modules "gsap" folder after running the above command. Weird...

I just tried copying the contents of the unpacked "package" folder manually to my node_modules/gsap folder, and voila, now it works. But this is certainly not the intended behavior, right? Maybe some issue with NPM? My npm --version7.5.3

...just one more question: What exactly is the difference between importing from gsap/all with destructuring vs. importing every single package from gsap, gsap/Plugin1, gsap/Plugin2 , as shown by Jack above? I am using the /all approach in many of my projects, it works fine and is less verbose, e.g.:

 

import { gsap, CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin, Power4, Linear } from 'gsap/all';
gsap.registerPlugin(CustomEase, ScrollToPlugin);
gsap.registerEase(Linear, Power4);

There's no difference, except using gsap/all imports everything during dev, so your compile times might be a little slower as it's more code to process.

 

FYI, you don't don't need to register any gsap eases.gsap.registerEase() is used to register a custom easing function.
