Card Deck
Web Component

How to use

An event named discard is triggered by the <card-desk> component when a card is removed from the deck. Event Detail Properties:

• goRight (boolean): true if the card was discarded to the right, false if to the left.
• goDown (boolean): true if the card was discarded downward, false if upward.
• card (HTMLElement): A reference to the removed card’s HTML element.

CSS and Component Import

To use the component, ensure you include the CSS from the dist folder, as the package only includes the Web Component JavaScript when imported into your project.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="@salvadorsru/card-deck/dist/style.min.css" />
<script type="module" src="@salvadorsru/card-deck/index.min.js"></script>

Alternatively, you can import the package directly in your JavaScript/TypeScript files:

import "@salvadorsru/card-deck";

Note: Importing the package via JavaScript does not include the CSS. You will need to manually include the CSS from the dist folder in your project.

The event’s detail includes the direction in which the card was removed and a full reference to the HTML element.

Behavior

• Cards move left or right with the .go-left and .go-right classes.
• The .reset class resets the card’s position.
• Card moves it will have a class with the adjective .dragged. Depending on its direction, it also gets one of the following classes .to-left, .to-right, .to-top, .to-bottom.

These variables allow flexibility in adjusting the appearance and behavior of the card deck without modifying the core CSS.

Events
