Fresco.Viewer (fresco v0.1.3)

Copy Markdown View Source

Phoenix LiveView function component that mounts a Fresco viewer.

Renders a <div> with phx-hook="FrescoViewer". The companion JS hook in priv/static/fresco.js lazy-loads OpenSeadragon from jsDelivr, initializes the viewer with sensible defaults (smooth animations, viewport clamped, Heroicons nav overlay), and publishes a handle to window.Fresco.viewerFor(id) so peer extensions can attach.

Usage

<Fresco.viewer
  id="photo"
  src={~p"/uploads/photo.jpg"}
  class="w-full h-[80vh] rounded"
/>

Source detection

The default behavior treats src as a plain image URL. Extensions can register source providers via window.Fresco.registerSourceProvider/2 to handle other formats (e.g., a DZI manifest URL via Tessera).

Interactions

Wheel-zoom, pinch-zoom, click-drag pan, double-click zoom, Heroicons nav buttons (zoom in / zoom out / reset / fullscreen). All work out of the box; no parent configuration needed.

Parent app setup

Import the JS hook and spread FrescoHooks into your LiveSocket hooks:

import "../../deps/fresco/priv/static/fresco.js"

let liveSocket = new LiveSocket("/live", Socket, {
  hooks: { ...window.FrescoHooks, ...colocatedHooks }
})

Functions

viewer(assigns)

Renders a Fresco viewer for the given image source.

Companion JS hook lazy-loads OpenSeadragon, mounts the viewer, attaches the nav overlay, and publishes the handle for peer extensions.

Attributes

  • id (:string) (required) - DOM id; must be unique on the page.

  • src (:string) (required) - URL of the image to display. Default behavior treats it as a plain image (.jpg, .png, .webp, etc.). Source providers registered via window.Fresco.registerSourceProvider/2 can intercept specific URL patterns (e.g., Tessera handles .dzi manifests).

  • class (:string) - CSS classes for the viewer container. Defaults to "w-full h-96".

  • infinite_canvas (:boolean) - When true, drops OSD's "keep the image filling the viewport" clamps so the user can pan freely beyond the image edges and zoom out until the image is a thumbnail in the middle of an empty canvas. The viewer background picks up a subtle dot-grid pattern in the void so it reads as "canvas," not "broken layout." Default false preserves the stock single-image viewer behavior — every existing call site keeps working unchanged.

    Layered overlays (e.g. Etcher) can draw annotations in the void around the image because their coordinate math already supports out-of-bounds image-pixel values.

    Future API: A planned :sources attribute will accept a list like [%{src: "...", offset: {x, y}}] for placing multiple images on the same canvas. The current :src will continue to work as a single-image shortcut — no migration required.

    Defaults to false.
