Usage

For using in raw HTML/JS:

<!-- Add the stylesheet to the head -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://NewJerseyStyle.github.io/clippyjs/assets/clippy.css">

<!-- Add these scripts to  the bottom of the page -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/jquery@3.2.1"></script>

<script src="https://NewJerseyStyle.github.io/clippyjs/demo/clippy.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
clippy.load('Merlin', function(agent){
    // Do anything with the loaded agent
    agent.show();
});
</script>

Actions

All the agent actions are queued and executed by order, so you could stack them.

// play a given animation
agent.play('Searching');

// play a random animation
agent.animate();

// get a list of all the animations
agent.animations();
// => ["MoveLeft", "Congratulate", "Hide", "Pleased", "Acknowledge", ...]

// Show text balloon
agent.speak('When all else fails, bind some paper together. My name is Clippy.');

// move to the given point, use animation if available
agent.moveTo(100,100);

// gesture at a given point (if gesture animation is available)
agent.gestureAt(200,200);

// stop the current action in the queue
agent.stopCurrent();

// stop all actions in the queue and go back to idle mode
agent.stop();

Custom CDN / Agents

By default all agents are being served from GitHub CDN (this repo) in order to customize loading base path, You can set window.CLIPPY_CDN or use fourth argument of load function it can be absolute URL or relative to script. (path should end with slash /)

// Using global config
window.CLIPPY_CDN = './agents/'

// Or using fourth argument
clippy.load('Marline', function() {
   // ...
}, undefined, './agents/')
