unmatrix

Parse and normalize the individual values of a css transform. Uses the same algorithm that Firefox uses to parse the transform string. Only parses the 2D transform attributes. This library is intentionally low-level and should probably be used within another library.

If you'd like to parse 3D transforms take a look at: http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-transforms/#matrix-decomposing.

Example

var unmatrix = require('unmatrix');
var t = unmatrix(box);
box.style.webkitTransform = toString(t);

Installation

Install with component(1):

$ component install matthewmueller/unmatrix

API

unmatrix(el)

Parse the individual values of a CSS transform. Returns the following object:

{
  "translateX": 400, // px
  "translateY": 200, // px
  "rotate": 60, // deg
  "skew": 20, // deg
  "scaleX": 2,
  "scaleY": 2
}

TODO

• support for transform matrix parsing
• tests would be nice
