Class: CB_AudioFileSprites

CB_AudioFileSprites

Class to manage audio sprites of a CB_AudioFileCache object (used internally).


new CB_AudioFileSprites( [dataObject]) → {CB_AudioFileSprites}

The constructor is recommended to be called through a user-driven event (as onClick, onTouch, etc.), as some clients may need this at least the first time in order to be able to play the audio.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
dataObject CB_AudioFileSprites.DATA_OBJECT <optional>

Object with the desired data and options for the audio sprites. Although it can contain a "sprites" property, it will also be used as the first and unique parameter when calling the constructor of the CB_AudioFileCache object internally.

Source:
To Do:
  • Do not allow to create one object with an "id" which has already been used (unless the value is undefined, null...).
  • Think about using wrapper to replace "this" in callbacks (callbackOk, callbackError) to point to the CB_AudioFileSprites object itself.
  • Method getCopy and static method filterProperties (similar to the ones from CB_GraphicSprites and CB_GraphicSpritesScene).
Returns:

Returns a new CB_AudioFileSprites object.

Returns true if the sound instance has been modified or false otherwise.

Type
boolean

cancelSoundInstances( [cancel] [, affectWithObjectAssociated]) → {integer}

Cancels (to prevent they start playing) or enables all sound instances (created by the CB_AudioFileCache#play method). Uses the CB_AudioFileCache#cancelSoundInstances method internally and returns its returning value.

checkPlayingAll( [callbackOk] [, callbackError] [, ignoreQueue]) → {integer}

Checks whether each CB_AudioFile object whose CB_AudioFile#getStatus method returns the "unchecked" value (which belongs to the value of the CB_AudioFile#UNCHECKED property) can be played or not. After checking, if the audio can be played, the status of the CB_AudioFile object will get the value of CB_AudioFile.LOADED. Otherwise, if it cannot be played, the status of the CB_AudioFile object will get the value of CB_AudioFile.FAILED. If a CB_AudioFile object cannot be played and it is determined necessary, it will try to reload it internally (by calling the CB_AudioFileCache#removeAudioFile method). It will call the CB_AudioFileCache#clearAudioFiles method internally after finishing. Uses the CB_AudioFileCache#checkPlayingAll method internally and returns its returning value. Recommended to be called through a user-driven event (as onClick, onTouch, etc.).

Parameters:

Type Definitions


DATA_OBJECT

Object with the desired data and options for the audio sprites. It is almost identical to the CB_AudioFileCache.DATA_OBJECT but adding a "sprites" property.

Type:
  • Object
Properties:
Name Type Argument Default Description
URIs CB_AudioFileCache.URIS_OBJECT

Object whose property names audio formats and their value is an array of strings with the URIs (audio file paths or audio data URIs) of the audio files in order of preference. The best audio format for the current client will be tried to be calculated and it will use the first working URI (audio file path or data URI). The more audio formats and URIs provided the better, as it will help to maximize the compatibility with as many clients as possible (as some audio APIs and client just support some formats, or use absolute paths instead of relative ones, etc.). Even with different formats, all provided URIs should belong to the same audio (this means same sound or same music, with same length, etc.). NOTE: Only some clients with some audio APIs will support data URIs. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#URIs property.

sprites CB_AudioFileSprites.SPRITES_OBJECT <optional>

Object with the desired sprites. It will be used as the first parameter to call the CB_AudioFileSprites#insertSprites method internally. It will be added (after being processed) to the CB_AudioFileCache#sprites property.

id string <optional>
""

Desired identifier for the audio file sprites object. Internal usage only recommended. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileSprites#id property as well as to the CB_AudioFileCache#id property of the internally-created CB_AudioFileCache object.

preferredAPIs array <optional>
CB_Configuration.CrossBase.CB_AudioFileCache_PREFERRED_AUDIO_APIS

Array of strings with the preferred audio API or audio APIs, in order of preference. Possible audio APIs are "WAAPI" (HTML5 Web Audio API), "SM2" (SoundManager 2), "ACMP" (Apache Cordova Media Plugin) or "AAPI" (HTML5 Audio API). It will try to calculate and use the best one for the current client. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#preferredAPIs property.

preferredFormats array <optional>
CB_Configuration.CrossBase.CB_AudioFileCache_PREFERRED_AUDIO_FORMATS

Array of strings with the preferred audio format or audio formats (they can include just the format as 'audio/ogg' or also the codec as for example 'audio/ogg; codecs="vorbis"'), in order of preference. It will try to calculate and use the best one for the current client. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#preferredFormats property.

minimumAudioFiles integer <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.minimumAudioFiles_DEFAULT

Minimum CB_AudioFile objects to create internally. It must be an integer being 1 the minimum. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFiles property.

maximumAudioFiles integer <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.maximumAudioFiles_DEFAULT

Maximum CB_AudioFile objects that are to be created internally. If it is set to null, there will not be a maximum (it will be unlimited). If an integer is provided, it must be the same number or greater than the value set in the CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFiles property (also provided by the "minimumAudioFiles" of this object), allowing 1 minimum. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#maximumAudioFiles property.

minimumAudioFilesFree integer <optional>
parseInt(CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFiles * 0.25 + 0.5)

New CB_AudioFile objects will be created internally when the number of free CB_AudioFile objects reaches this limit. If provided, it must be an integer being 0 (zero) the minimum. It will end using a 25% of the CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFiles by default, rounded to ceil, allowing 0 (zero) minimum. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFilesFree property.

newAudioFilesWhenNeeded integer <optional>
Math.min(parseInt(CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFiles * 0.1 + 0.5), 1)

Number of new CB_AudioFile objects to create internally when the minimum limit of free CB_AudioFile objects (CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFilesFree) is reached. If provided, it must be an integer being 0 (zero) the minimum. It will end using a 10% of the CB_AudioFileCache#minimumAudioFiles by default, rounded to ceil, allowing 1 minimum. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#newAudioFilesWhenNeeded property.

retries integer <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.retries_DEFAULT

Number of retries to try to load a CB_AudioFile object internally before trying to load the next possible one internally (if any). It must be an integer being 0 the minimum. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#retries property.

checkManually boolean <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.checkManually_DEFAULT

Tells whether the CB_AudioFile objects must be checked automatically or not (manually) by default. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#checkManually property.

checkManuallyOnNeededCreated boolean <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.checkManuallyOnNeededCreated_DEFAULT

Tells whether the CB_AudioFile objects must be checked automatically or not (manually) when creates a new CB_AudioFile object needed. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#checkManuallyOnNeededCreated property.

checkManuallyOnPlayingFailed boolean <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.checkManuallyOnPlayingFailed_DEFAULT

Tells whether the CB_AudioFile objects must be checked automatically or not (manually) when playing one has failed and tries to reload it. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#checkManuallyOnPlayingFailed property.

checkManuallyOnCheckingFailed boolean <optional>
CB_AudioFileCache.checkManuallyOnCheckingFailed_DEFAULT

Tells whether the CB_AudioFile objects must be checked automatically or not (manually) when checking one has failed and tries to reload it. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#checkManuallyOnCheckingFailed property.

onLoad function <optional>

Desired function to be called once the cache has been loaded. The first and unique parameter will be an integer with the CB_AudioFile objects that still need to be checked, if any, being "this" the current CB_AudioFileCache object. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#onLoad property.

onError function <optional>

Desired function to be called when any kind of error happens. The first and unique parameter will be a string with the error description (if it could be determined), being "this" the current CB_AudioFileCache object. If a valid value is given, this will be added to the CB_AudioFileCache#onError property.

disableAutoLoad boolean <optional>
false

If set to true, it will not create automatically the CB_AudioFile objects by calling the CB_AudioFileCache#createAudioFiles method internally. Internal usage only recommended.

Source:

SPRITES_OBJECT

Object whose property names the identifiers of each sprite (a case-sensitive string) and their value is a CB_AudioFileSprites.SPRITE_OBJECT object.

Type:
  • Object
Properties:
Name Type Description
spriteInformation CB_AudioFileSprites.SPRITE_OBJECT

Being the name of each property the identifier of a sprite (a string which cannot be "_WITHOUT_SPRITE_ASSOCIATED" as it is a reserved name), the value will always be a CB_AudioFileSprites.SPRITE_OBJECT object.

Source:
Example
{
	"whole_audio" : {},
	"first_sprite" : { stopAt: 10 },
	"second_sprite" : { startAt: 10, stopAt: 20 },
	"third_sprite" : { startAt: 20 },
	...
}
 

SPRITE_OBJECT

An object representing an audio sprite which can contain, optionally, the "startAt" and "stopAt" properties with a numeric value (representing when the audio sprite starts and when it stops, respectively). If not set, the default "startAt" value will be 0 (zero) and the default "stopAt" value will be null (which means it will not stop until the end of the audio is reached unless it is paused or stopped before). The "fake" property should never be used as it is used internally to distinguish real sprites from fake ones (generated and returned by the CB_AudioFileSprites#getSprite method when a requested sprite is not found).

Type:
  • Object
Properties:
Name Type Argument Default Description
startAt number <optional>
0

The time (in milliseconds) of the audio file where the audio sprite starts. If not provided, it will use the value of 0 (zero) which means that it will start from the beginning.

stopAt number <optional>
CB_AudioFile_API.WAAPI#getDuration() | CB_AudioFile_API.SM2#getDuration() | CB_AudioFile_API.ACMP#getDuration() | CB_AudioFile_API.AAPI#getDuration()

The time (in milliseconds) of the audio file where the audio sprite stops. If not provided (not recommended), it will use the whole duration of the file (which means until it reaches its end). NOTE: Due to some possible problems between clients with different audio APIs calculating the duration of an audio file, it is recommended to always set the "stopAt" property even when we want it to stop at the end of the audio.

Source:
Example
{ startAt: 10, stopAt: 20 }
 

getAudioFilesUsed_OBJECT

Object returned by the CB_AudioFileSprites#getAudioFilesUsed method. Each property names will be the sprites identifiers except the "_WITHOUT_SPRITE_ASSOCIATED" property for sound instances without a sprite associated (if we wanted to include them).

Type:
  • Object
Properties:
Name Type Description
spriteId CB_AudioFile

Each property name will be a sprite identifier (it can be "_WITHOUT_SPRITE_ASSOCIATED" for sound instances without a sprite associated, if we wanted to include them). The value will be a numeric array with the CB_AudioFile objects used.
