Using Splittext from GSAP in Nuxt.js

[Sıradışı Digital]

I'm using nuxtjs 3 and the @hypernym/nuxt-gsap package. I want to use splittext but I get the following error. Can you help with this?

const { $gsap } = useNuxtApp();
onMounted(() => {
  var childSplit = this.SplitText(".text-animation", {type: "lines"});
  console.log(childSplit);
});

My Error :

 

index.vue:144 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'SplitText')

Hi,

 

Follow the instructions in the package's documentation:

 

https://github.com/hypernym-studio/nuxt-gsap/tree/main/docs/club-plugins

 

Also is worth noting that GSAP Club Plugins are paid, so be sure to have a valid and up to date license in order to be able to install them in your project.

 

If you don't have a Club GSAP membership you can still use the bonus plugins locally on your projects using the gsap-trial package:

 

https://www.npmjs.com/package/gsap-trial

 

You won't be able to use the trial package in a deployed app though.

 

Hopefully this helps

Happy Tweening!

@Rodrigo Yes, I am a member of gsap club. I made the settings as specified. As I said, I use it as in the example above, but I get an error.

It's pretty tough to troubleshoot without a minimal demo - the issue could be caused by CSS, markup, a third party library, your browser, an external script that's totally unrelated to GSAP, etc. Would you please provide a very simple CodePen or Stackblitz that demonstrates the issue? 

 

Please don't include your whole project. Just some colored <div> elements and the GSAP code is best. See if you can recreate the issue with as few dependancies as possible. If not, incrementally add code bit by bit until it breaks. Usually people solve their own issues during this process! If not, then at least we have a reduced test case which greatly increases your chances of getting a relevant answer.

 

Here's a starter CodePen that loads all the plugins. Just click "fork" at the bottom right and make your minimal demo: 

See the Pen aYYOdN by GreenSock (@GreenSock) on CodePen

 

Using a framework/library like React, Vue, Next, etc.? 

CodePen isn't always ideal for these tools, so here are some Stackblitz starter templates that you can fork and import the gsap-trial NPM package for using any of the bonus plugins: 

• React (please read this article!)
• Next
• Svelte
• Sveltekit
• Vue
• Nuxt

 

Please share the StackBlitz link directly to the file in question (where you've put the GSAP code) so we don't need to hunt through all the files. 

 

Once we see an isolated demo, we'll do our best to jump in and help with your GSAP-specific questions.
