get_frame: Extract a frame from a generator

In tweenr: Interpolate Data for Smooth Animations

Extract a frame from a generator

Description

Using the generators in tweenr you can avoid calculating all needed frames up front, which can be prohibitive in memory. With a generator you can use get_frame() to extract any frame at a fractional location between 0 and 1 one by one as you need them. You can further get all raw data before and/or after a given point in time using get_raw_frames().

Usage

get_frame(generator, at, ...)

get_raw_frames(generator, at, before = 0, after = 0, ...)

Arguments

generator	A frame_generator object
at	A scalar numeric between 0 and 1
...	Arguments passed on to methods
before, after	Scalar numerics that define the time before and after at to search for raw data

Examples

data <- data.frame(
  x = c(1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2),
  y = c(1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1),
  time = c(1, 4, 8, 4, 8, 10),
  id = c(1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2)
)

gen <- gen_components(data, 'cubic-in-out', time = time, id = id)

get_frame(gen, 0.3)

get_raw_frames(gen, 0.5, before = 0.5, after = 0.2)
