**Ripple** is a simple, lightweight, and easy-to-use Roblox library for creating simple transitions and animations. It is inspired by [react-spring](https://react-spring.dev) and aims to provide an imperative API for general use.

## Installation

Ripple is available on [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@rbxts/ripple) and can be installed with the following commands:

```bash
npm install @rbxts/ripple
yarn add @rbxts/ripple
pnpm add @rbxts/ripple
```

```toml
# Wally
Ripple = "littensy/ripple@version"
```

### `createSpring(initialValue, options)`

`createSpring` creates a spring object starting at the given value.

```lua
local spring = createSpring(0, {
	tension = 170,
	friction = 26,
	start = true,
})

spring:setGoal(1)
spring:onChange(print) --> number, deltaTime
```

#### Parameters

- `initialValue`: The value that the spring should start with.
- **optional** `options`: The physical properties of the spring.

#### Options

| Option           | Type      | Description                                                                                    |
| ---------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| tension[^1]      | `number`  | Influences the number of bounces in the animation. Defaults to `170`.                          |

[^1]: Tension, friction, and mass are not compatible with frequency or damping ratio.

[^2]: Frequency and damping ratio are not compatible with tension, friction, or mass.

#### Returns

`createSpring` returns a spring object.

### `createTween(initialValue, options)`

`createTween` creates a tween object starting at the given value.

```lua
local tween = createTween(0, {
	easing = "quadOut",
	duration = 1,
	start = true,
})

tween:setGoal(1)
tween:onChange(print) --> number, deltaTime
```

#### Parameters

- `initialValue`: The value that the spring should start with.
- **optional** `options`: The properties of the tween.

#### Options

| duration | `number`  | Duration of one repetition of the tween, in seconds.           |
| repeats  | `number`  | Number of times the tween repeats.                             |
| reverses | `boolean` | Reverse directions when repeating.                             |
| position | `T`       | Continue the rest of the tween from this position.             |
| start    | `boolean` | Connect to Heartbeat while animating. Defaults to `false`.     |

#### Easing functions

|               |                |                  |
| ------------- | -------------- | ---------------- |
| `"linear"`    | `"instant"`    | `"smoothstep"`   |
| `"sineIn"`    | `"sineOut"`    | `"sineInOut"`    |
| `"backIn"`    | `"backOut"`    | `"backInOut"`    |
| `"quadIn"`    | `"quadOut"`    | `"quadInOut"`    |
| `"quartIn"`   | `"quartOut"`   | `"quartInOut"`   |

[See examples of easing functions →](https://easings.net)

#### Returns

`createTween` returns a tween object.

---

### `createMotion(initialValue, options)`

`createMotion` creates an animation that switches between a spring and a tween.

```lua
local motion = createMotion(0, {
	spring = { tension = 170, friction = 26 },
	tween = { easing = "quadOut", duration = 1 },
	start = true,
})

motion:onChange(print) --> number, deltaTime
motion:tween(1)
task.wait(1)
motion:spring(0)
```

> [!WARNING]
>
> This creates both a spring and a tween object, which can be wasteful if your animation uses only one or the other.
>
> Use [`createSpring`](#createspringinitialvalue-options) or [`createTween`](#createtweeninitialvalue-options) if you do not need to switch animation types.

#### Parameters

- `initialValue`: The value that the spring and tween should start with.
- **optional** `options`: The properties of the spring or tween.

#### Options

| Option | Type               | Description                                                  |
| ------ | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| spring | `SpringOptions<T>` | The [spring options](#options) to use for spring animations. |
| tween  | `TweenOptions<T>`  | The [tween options](#options-1) to use for tween animations. |
| start  | `boolean`          | Connect to Heartbeat while animating. Defaults to `false`.   |

#### Returns

`createMotion` returns a motion object that controls a spring and a tween.

## Examples

### React Button

```luau
local function Button()
	local binding, spring = useSpring(0, config.stiff)

	return React.createElement("TextButton", {
		[React.Change.GuiState] = function(rbx: TextButton)
			if rbx.GuiState == Enum.GuiState.Hover then
				spring:setGoal(20)
			elseif rbx.GuiState == Enum.GuiState.Press then
				spring:setGoal(-20, { impulse = -100 })
			else
				spring:setGoal(0)
			end
		end,
		Text = "Button",
		Size = binding:map(function(offset)
			return UDim2.fromOffset(100 + offset, 50 + offset)
		end),
	})
end
```

### Vide Button

```luau
local function Button()
	local getValue, spring = useSpring(0, config.stiff)

	return create "TextButton" {
		Text = "Button",
		Size = function()
			return UDim2.fromOffset(100 + getValue(), 50 + getValue())
		end,

		changed("GuiState", function(state: Enum.GuiState)
			if state == Enum.GuiState.Hover then
				spring:setGoal(20)
			elseif state == Enum.GuiState.Press then
				spring:setGoal(-20, { impulse = -100 })
			else
				spring:setGoal(0)
			end
		end),
	}
