See cursor.oooo.so for more details.

Usage

Basic usage

Apply data-cursor attribute to the element you want to add the effect.

data-cursor="text": text cursor
data-cursor="block": block cursor

<div data-cursor="text">Text Cursor</div>
<div data-cursor="block">Block Cursor</div>

After your dom loaded, call initCursor to start the effect. You may need to call initCursor when dom updated.

import { initCursor } from 'ipad-cursor'

initCursor()

⚠️ Notice: As so far, you need to manage when to updateCursor yourself. Make sure to call updateCursor after dom updated. In the future, there maybe a better way to handle this, see Roadmap for more details.

Principle

When initCursor called, it will remove default cursor, and generate a fake cursor use div element. Then listen mousemove event, and move the fake cursor to the mouse position.

After init finished, it will call updateCursor method, scan element with data-cursor attribute, detect the cursor type, and add event listener to the element.

When mouse enter the element, apply styles.

API

initCursor(cfg)

see Config for more details.

Init cursor, remove default cursor, and generate a fake cursor use div element. Then listen mousemove event, and move the fake cursor to the mouse position.

updateCursor

Scan element to observe hover event, and apply styles, as well as remove unused element's event listener.

disposeCursor

Remove fake cursor, and remove all event listener, recover default cursor.

updateConfig(cfg)

Update config, see Config for more details.

customCursorStyle(style)

Create style string that can be used as data-cursor-style attribute. This method is used for better type hinting.

Config

It is recommended to see index.d.ts in the npm package.

More examples
Auto detect dom update, and call updateCursor automatically
- Maybe use MutationObserver
