Upgrade Notice

From elm 0.18 to 0.19

Coming from elm-mouse-events

Not many changes, you should get through without any major issue. Most importantly:

  • Mouse module is now under Html.Events.Extra.Mouse so changing your imports from import Mouse to import Html.Events.Extra.Mouse as Mouse should be sufficient most of the time.
  • The Mouse.Event type now also has button, pagePos and screenPos attributes. Depending on your usage, it might imply no or minor changes.

Coming from elm-touch-events

Many changes. Most importantly:

  • The Touch module is now under Html.Events.Extra.Touch. You can change imports like so: import Html.Events.Extra.Touch as Touch.
  • The modules Touch, SingleTouch and MultiTouch have been merged in one unique Touch module. It only features multitouch since getting a single touch event from the multitouch event is trivial with a function like touchCoordinates (see below).
  • The type Touch.Event is not opaque anymore.
  • Touches (changed, target, touches) are simple list instead of dicts now. Previous dict id are now in the identifier : Int field of a Touch.
  • A Touch also provides page and screen positions in addition to client.
  • Decoders are provided for advanced usage in case needed.
touchCoordinates : Touch.Event -> ( Float, Float )
touchCoordinates touchEvent =
    List.head touchEvent.changedTouches
        |> Maybe.map .clientPos
        |> Maybe.withDefault ( 0, 0 )
