API

Instantiation

new CanvasCircularCountdown(element, [options], [onTimerRunning])

Param	Type	Description
element	`HTMLElement`	(Required) The element that the countdown is drawn to. If is a `canvas` element, the countdown will be drawn on it; otherwise a `canvas` element will be created and appended to `element`.
[options]	`Object`	(Optional) Options that can be overriden by user. See below for more details about each option.
[onTimerRunning]	`Function`	(Optional) Function to be executed while timer is running. Parameters passed by include the percentage remaining, an object containing the remaining and elapsed time and the `CanvasCircularCountdown` instance.

Options

Param	Type	Default	Description
duration	`Number`	`60 * 1000`	The timer's duration in milliseconds.
radius	`Number`	`150`	The radius of the circular countdown in pixels.
progressBarWidth	`Number`	`15`	The circular progress bar in pixels.
progressBarOffset	`Number`	`5`	The number of pixels that will be left between the edges of the progress bar and the rest of the circle.
circleBackgroundColor	`String`	`#ffffff`	The background color of the main circle.
emptyProgressBarBackgroundColor	`String`	`#dddddd`	The background color of the progress bar when is empty.
filledProgressBarBackgroundColor ¹	`String\|Function`	`#00bfeb`	The background color of the progress bar when is filled.
captionText ¹	`String\|Function`	`undefined`	The text to be displayed as caption inside the countdown circle. By default if it is left as `undefined` and `showCaption` is set to true, the remaining percentage will be displayed.
captionColor ¹	`String\|Function`	`#343a40`	The foreground color of the caption string.
captionFont ¹	`String\|Function`	`20px sans-serif`	The text style of the caption string. Check here for available values.
showCaption ¹	`Boolean\|Function`	`true`	Whether the caption text inside the countdown circle will be displayed or not.
draw	`Function`	`undefined`	A function that exposes `CanvasRenderingContext2D` to allow free drawing on the canvas element. The function is called with 2 arguments. The first argument is the `CanvasRenderingContext2D` and the second is an object with information like the canvas width/height, the remaining percentage and an object containing the remaining and elapsed time.
throttle	`Number`	`undefined`	Throttle duration in milliseconds. Must be a number lower or equal to the `duration` option. If provided, it limits the number of times the canvas is drawn in the given period, therefore the number of times the callback function `onTimerRunning` can be called. You can use it if you perform heavy tasks inside the `onTimerRunning` callback function to improve performance. Always prefer small numbers, eg. 250, etc

¹ If it is a function, the remaining percentage and an object containing the remaining and elapsed time are passed as parameters and it should return the appropriate type for each option. For example, for showCaption should return a boolean (true or false), but for captionColor should return a string. Useful when you need to change some options' values depending on the remaining percentage or the remaining/elapsed time.

Instance methods

start() => CanvasCircularCountdown

Start the timer. If the timer has been already started, the timer will just resume.

stop() => CanvasCircularCountdown

Stop/Pause the timer.

reset() => CanvasCircularCountdown

Resets the timer to initial specified duration.

style(options = {}) => CanvasCircularCountdown

Change the styles of the circular countdown at any time while te timer running.

Param	Type	Default	Description
options	`Object`	`{}`	Any of the options provided above can be changed apart from the `duration` and `throttle` options.

Examples

Example 1 - Default configuration

Create a new instance of CanvasCircularCountdown with the default configuration and immediately start the countdown timer. Pause the countdown after 5 seconds have passed.

HTML

<canvas id="countdown-canvas"></canvas>

JavaScript

new CanvasCircularCountdown(document.getElementById('countdown-canvas'), (percentage, time, instance) => {
  if (time.elapsed >= 5000) {
    instance.stop();
  }
}).start();

Example 2 - Custom configuration

Same as the above example, but with custom configuration.

HTML

<canvas id="countdown-canvas"></canvas>

JavaScript

new CanvasCircularCountdown(document.getElementById('countdown-canvas'), {
  duration: 30 * 1000,
  radius: 200,
  progressBarWidth: 20,
  progressBarOffset: 0,
  circleBackgroundColor: '#f5f5f5',
  emptyProgressBarBackgroundColor: '#b9c1c7',
  filledProgressBarBackgroundColor: '#17a2b8',
  captionColor: '#6c757d',
  captionFont: '22px serif',
  showCaption: true
}, (percentage, time, instance) => {
  if (time.elapsed >= 5000 ) {
    instance.stop();
  }
}).start();

Example 3 - Change progress bar and caption string color depending on percentage remaining

HTML

<canvas id="countdown-canvas"></canvas>

JavaScript

const pickColorByPercentage = (percentage, time) => {
  switch (true) {
    case percentage >= 75:
      return '#28a745'; // green
    case percentage >= 50 && percentage < 75:
      return '#17a2b8'; // blue
    case percentage >= 25 && percentage < 50:
      return '#ffc107'; // orange
    default:
      return '#dc3545'; // red
  }
}

new CanvasCircularCountdown(document.getElementById('countdown-canvas'), {
  filledProgressBarBackgroundColor: pickColorByPercentage,
  captionColor: pickColorByPercentage
}).start();

Example 4 - Responsive canvas

HTML

<div id="countdown-container">
  <canvas id="countdown-canvas"></canvas>
</div>

CSS

#countdown-container {
  width: 100%;
  max-width: 500px;
}

JavaScript

const containerEl = document.getElementById('countdown-container');
const countdownEl = document.getElementById('countdown-canvas');

const countdown = new CanvasCircularCountdown(countdownEl, {
  radius: containerEl.getBoundingClientRect().width / 2
}).start();

let resizeTimeout;

window.addEventListener('resize', () => {
  clearTimeout(resizeTimeout);

  resizeTimeout = setTimeout(() => {
    countdownEl.style({
      radius: containerEl.getBoundingClientRect().width / 2
    });
  }, 250);

Example 5 - Change caption text depending on percentage

HTML

<canvas id="countdown-canvas"></canvas>

JavaScript

new CanvasCircularCountdown(document.getElementById('countdown-canvas'), {
  captionText: percentage => {
    if (percentage <= 25) {
      return 'Time is running out!';
    }

    return 'There is time. Don\'t worry!';
  }
}).start();

Example 6 - Free draw on canvas element

HTML

<canvas id="countdown-canvas"></canvas>

JavaScript

new CanvasCircularCountdown(document.getElementById('countdown-canvas'), {
  draw: (ctx, opts) => {
    // Draw a in the centre of the canvas element,
    // with radius being 1/4 of the canvas width.
    ctx.save();
    ctx.beginPath();
    ctx.arc(opts.width / 2, opts.height / 2, opts.width / 4, 0, 4 * Math.PI, false);
    ctx.lineWidth = 5;
    ctx.strokeStyle = opts.percentage >= 50 ? '#008000' : '#ff0000'; // change color according to percentage
    ctx.stroke();
    ctx.restore();
  }
}).start();
