How to apply canvas animations with Vue and Konva?

Konva provides two methods for animations: Tween and Animation. For simple use cases, we recommend using the node.to() method, which is a simplified version of Tween.

Instructions: Try to drag the green rectangle to see it scale randomly, and observe the red hexagon moving in a sine wave pattern.

<template>
  <v-stage ref="stage" :config="stageSize">
    <v-layer ref="layer">
      <v-rect
        ref="rect"
        @dragstart="changeSize"
        @dragend="changeSize"
        :config="{
          width: 50,
          height: 50,
          fill: 'green',
          draggable: true,
          x: 100,
          y: 100
        }"
      />
      <v-regular-polygon
        ref="hexagon"
        :config="{
          x: 200,
          y: 200,
          sides: 6,
          radius: 20,
          fill: 'red',
          stroke: 'black',
          strokeWidth: 4
        }"
      />
    </v-layer>
  </v-stage>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue';
import Konva from 'konva';

const stageSize = {
  width: window.innerWidth,
  height: window.innerHeight
};

const stage = ref(null);
const hexagon = ref(null);

const changeSize = (e) => {
  // to() is a method of `Konva.Node` instances
  e.target.to({
    scaleX: Math.random() + 0.8,
    scaleY: Math.random() + 0.8,
    duration: 0.2
  });
};

onMounted(() => {
  const amplitude = 100;
  const period = 5000; // in ms
  const centerX = stage.value.getNode().getWidth() / 2;
  const hexagonNode = hexagon.value.getNode();

  // example of Konva.Animation
  const anim = new Konva.Animation((frame) => {
    hexagonNode.setX(
      amplitude * Math.sin((frame.time * 2 * Math.PI) / period) + centerX
    );
  }, hexagonNode.getLayer());

  anim.start();
});
</script>

The demo above shows two types of animations:

1. Using node.to() method (Tween) to animate the green rectangle's scale when dragged
2. Using Konva.Animation to create a continuous sine wave movement for the red hexagon

The node.to() method is perfect for simple transitions, while Konva.Animation is better for complex, continuous animations that need to run on each frame.
