PixiJS Animated GIF

Node.js CI

Plugin to support playback of animated GIF images in PixiJS. Unlike normal GIF playback in the browser, this plugins allows you to stop, loop, change speed, or go to a specific frame.

Usage

Load an animated GIF image with Assets:

import '@pixi/gif';
import { Assets } from 'pixi.js';

const app = new Application();
const image = await Assets.load('image.gif');
app.stage.addChild(image);

To use a gif without Assets:

import { Application } from 'pixi.js';
import { AnimatedGIF } from '@pixi/gif';

const app = new Application();
fetch('image.gif')
    .then(res => res.arrayBuffer())
    .then(AnimatedGIF.fromBuffer)
    .then(image => app.stage.addChild(image));
