Controls don't seem to be returned

[468]

Hi,
I love this lib, the effect is great and it greatly simplifies the process of applying a glitch effect to child elements.

I am having trouble with retrieving the controls as described in the docs;

const {
    startGlitch,
    stopGlitch
} = PowerGlitch.glitch('.glitch')

glitch() does not seem to return the startGlitch/stopGlitch function, or indeed anything at all. I have tried:

• setting to manual mode (in case this was necessary)
• calling them asynchronously (in case it was a race condition)

But not luck. I can see the lib has been recently updated, is it a case of this feature not being implemented yet? Otherwise if it's just my end, I will investigate further and see if I can pin down what's causing it in my specific case.

Thank you

Hi @468 , thank you for your feedback! 😊 It's very rewarding to see other people using this lib,

The library was re-written and published yesterday under 2.0.0, which includes the glitch controls. Are you using 2.0.0? Otherwise, this will not work.

Here is an example using startGlitch:

While testing it just now, I found that stopGlitch while being returned throws an error when options.timing.iterations is Infinity - I will be fixing this issue very soon and see if I can add an unit test for this.

This may be the issue that prevents you from using correctly the lib 🤔 Waiting for your response

Ah yes, it seems like it was some sort of cache issue my end, it works nicely as long as I link directly to the new file in 2.0.0! Apologies for the false alarm, and thanks for the quick reply.

I am now running into the issue you mention now, swapping animation.finish() for animation.cancel() in stopGlitch did the trick as a quick workaround for my purposes

Thanks again for the great lib! 🙇‍♂️
