====== CSS+JS clock ====== Create a file containg the following code
That’s right! Our clock consists only of divs. Now Insert style into the file, otherwise we only have a page with lots of invisible divs. .clock { position: fixed; left:50%; top:50%; margin-top:-150px; margin-left:-150px; height: 300px; width: 300px; border-radius: 50%; background: #fff url(test.svg) no-repeat center; background-size: 88%; } .clock.simple:after { background: #000; border-radius: 50%; content: ""; position: absolute; left: 50%; top: 50%; transform: translate(-50%, -50%); width: 5%; height: 5%; z-index: 10; } .minutes-container, .hours-container, .seconds-container { position: absolute; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; } .hours { background: #000; height: 20%; left: 48.75%; position: absolute; top: 30%; transform-origin: 50% 100%; width: 2.5%; } .minutes { background: #000; height: 40%; left: 49%; position: absolute; top: 10%; transform-origin: 50% 100%; width: 2%; } .seconds { background: #000; height: 45%; left: 49.5%; position: absolute; top: 14%; transform-origin: 50% 80%; width: 1%; z-index: 8; } @keyframes rotate { 100% { transform: rotateZ(360deg); } } .hours-container { animation: rotate 43200s infinite linear; } .minutes-container { transition: transform 0.3s cubic-bezier(.4,2.08,.55,.44); } .seconds-container { transition: transform 0.2s cubic-bezier(.4,2.08,.55,.44); } We could use animation for .minutes-container, and .seconds-container and we could have a smooth animation (and a correct one), but we want a little more personality for our clock. Simply adding steps to our animation makes the clock ‘tick’. .minutes-container { animation: rotate 3600s infinite steps(60); } .seconds-container { animation: rotate 60s infinite steps(60); } Our clock hands are all pointing upwards and need to be angeled according to our local time. /* * Starts clock using the user's local time */ function initLocalClocks() { // Get the local time using JS var date = new Date; var seconds = date.getSeconds(); var minutes = date.getMinutes(); var hours = date.getHours(); // Create an object with each hand and it's angle in degrees var hands = [ { hand: 'hours', angle: (hours * 30) + (minutes / 2) }, { hand: 'minutes', angle: (minutes * 6) }, { hand: 'seconds', angle: (seconds * 6) } ]; // Loop through each of these hands to set their angle for (var j = 0; j < hands.length; j++) { var elements = document.querySelectorAll('.' + hands[j].hand); for (var k = 0; k < elements.length; k++) { elements[k].style.webkitTransform = 'rotateZ('+ hands[j].angle +'deg)'; elements[k].style.transform = 'rotateZ('+ hands[j].angle +'deg)'; // If this is a minute hand, note the seconds position (to calculate minute position later) if (hands[j].hand === 'minutes') { elements[k].parentNode.setAttribute('data-second-angle', hands[j + 1].angle); } } } } Since our clock isn’t moving yet (except the hours handle wich is handeled by CSS animation), we need some JS to animate the minutes and seconds hands. /* * Set a timeout for the first minute hand movement (less than 1 minute), then rotate it every minute after that */ function setUpMinuteHands() { // Find out how far into the minute we are var containers = document.querySelectorAll('.minutes-container'); var secondAngle = containers[0].getAttribute("data-second-angle"); if (secondAngle > 0) { // Set a timeout until the end of the current minute, to move the hand var delay = (((360 - secondAngle) / 6) + 0.1) * 1000; setTimeout(function() { moveMinuteHands(containers); }, delay); } } /* * Do the first minute's rotation */ function moveMinuteHands(containers) { for (var i = 0; i < containers.length; i++) { containers[i].style.webkitTransform = 'rotateZ(6deg)'; containers[i].style.transform = 'rotateZ(6deg)'; } // Then continue with a 60 second interval setInterval(function() { for (var i = 0; i < containers.length; i++) { if (containers[i].angle === undefined) { containers[i].angle = 12; } else { containers[i].angle += 6; } containers[i].style.webkitTransform = 'rotateZ('+ containers[i].angle +'deg)'; containers[i].style.transform = 'rotateZ('+ containers[i].angle +'deg)'; } }, 60000); } /* * Move the second containers */ function moveSecondHands() { var containers = document.querySelectorAll('.seconds-container'); setInterval(function() { for (var i = 0; i < containers.length; i++) { if (containers[i].angle === undefined) { containers[i].angle = 6; } else { containers[i].angle += 6; } containers[i].style.webkitTransform = 'rotateZ('+ containers[i].angle +'deg)'; containers[i].style.transform = 'rotateZ('+ containers[i].angle +'deg)'; } }, 1000); } And finaly do not forget to call the functions in the correct order: initLocalClocks(); setUpMinuteHands(); moveSecondHands();
