That's it! Start developing your app!

Examples

Here are some code examples

Simple box rotation

// index.vue

{
  mounted() {
    this.boxRotation()
  },

  methods: {
    boxRotation() {
      const gsap = this.$gsap
      gsap.to('.box', { rotation: 27, x: 100, duration: 1 })
    }
  }
}

Nuxt global page transitions

// nuxt.config.js

{
  buildModules: ['nuxt-gsap-module'],

  // Add global page transition
  pageTransition: {
    name: 'page',
    mode: 'out-in',
    css: false,

    beforeEnter(el) {
      this.$gsap.set(el, {
        opacity: 0
      })
    },

    enter(el, done) {
      this.$gsap.to(el, {
        opacity: 1,
        duration: 0.5,
        ease: 'power2.inOut',
        onComplete: done
      })
    },

    leave(el, done) {
      this.$gsap.to(el, {
        opacity: 0,
        duration: 0.5,
        ease: 'power2.inOut',
        onComplete: done
      })
    }
  }
}

Multiple plugins

After activation, plugins are automatically registered and available globally, so you won’t have to worry about it (applies to all plugins).

// nuxt.config.js

{
  gsap: {
    extraPlugins: {
      scrollTo: true,
      scrollTrigger: true
    },
    extraEases: {
      expoScaleEase: true
    }
  }
}
// Usage

export default {
  mounted() {
    this.animateOnScroll()
  },

  methods: {
    animateOnScroll() {
      this.$gsap.to(window, { duration: 2, scrollTo: 1000 })

      this.$gsap.to('.box', {
        x: 500,
        ease: 'Power1.easeInOut',
        scrollTrigger: {
          trigger: '.content',
          pin: true,
          end: 'bottom',
          scrub: true
        }
      })
    }

Module Options

Here are all the default options that can be used for customization:

// nuxt.config.js

{
  gsap: {
    extraPlugins: {},
    extraEases: {},
    clubPlugins: {},
    registerEffect: [],
    registerEase: [],
  }
}

GSAP's core

$gsap

  • Default: true

GSAP's core is enabled by default so there is no need for additional configuration.

// nuxt.config.js

{
  buildModules: ['nuxt-gsap-module']
}

Available globally

// Access GSAP by using
this.$gsap

// or
const gsap = this.$gsap
gsap.to('.box', { rotation: 27, x: 100, duration: 1 })

Register Effect

  • Default: []

This option allows you to easily register a global effect. Once the effect is registered, it can be accessed directly on the gsap.effects object.

// nuxt.config.js

{
  gsap: {
    registerEffect: [
      {
        name: 'fadeIn',
        effect: (targets, config) => {
          // ...
        }
      },
      {
        name: 'fadeOut',
        effect: (targets, config) => {
          // ...
        }
      },
      {
        name: 'fadeInOut',
        effect: (targets, config) => {
          // ...
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}
// Effects can be accessed as follows
this.$gsap.effects.fadeIn('.class')
this.$gsap.effects.fadeOut('#id')
this.$gsap.effects.fadeInOut(element)

// or
const gsap = this.$gsap
gsap.effects.fadeIn('.class')
gsap.effects.fadeOut('#id')
gsap.effects.fadeInOut(element)

// or directly on timelines
let tl = this.$gsap.timeline()
tl.fadeIn('.class', { duration: 3 })
  .fadeIn('#id', { duration: 1 }, '+=2')
  .to('.class2', { x: 100 })

  gsap: {
    registerEase: [
      {
        name: 'myEase',
        ease: progress => {
          return progress // linear
        }
      },
      {
