NodeJS, Express, Jade partial views issues

[jferrell5]

While test driving AniJS on a NodeJS/Express site using the Jade template engine, I have noticed that the animations do not work unless the anijs.js script reference is included directly in the partial view where the html tag to be animated with the "data-anijs" attribute exists. If the anijs script reference is included as part of a layout file(loaded into the page ) the anijs script loads prior to the view file's html, but no animation occurs. If the anijs script reference is included in the partial view, the animations work great. For obvious reasons I would rather have the script reference to anijs in the layout head tag, then just add the "data-anijs" attribute where desired throughout the site's views/partial views as with all other script libraries I am using.

Am I missing something here or is this just the nature of the AniJS library? Good work btw.

The AniJS behavior is the below:
1 - The library script is loaded.
2 - By default AniJS travel through the current DOM nodes.

If you add another DOM elements dinamically with new data-anijs sentences after this moment , you need to call the AniJS run function using Javascript.

//Traveled the DOM scope parsing all nodes with data-anijs tag.
AniJS.run();

Thanks Dariel. I added a script file that calls AniJS.run() on window.onload, enabling me to keep a reference to anijs-min.js and any inline scripts out of my Jade partials. I can now just add the animation attributes to the html tags wherever needed.

Thanks again.

Hi, we launched AniJS Studio on KickStarter, that allow to designers and programmers add animations and interactions for Web pages in an easy and intuitive way. Please, take a look at the project and if you find it interesting or simply want to help us, you can make a small donation. I would be grateful, Greetings Dariel
