# raf
[![Browser Support](http://ci.testling.com/chrisdickinson/raf.png)](http://ci.testling.com/chrisdickinson/raf)
requestAnimationFrame polyfill for node and the browser.
```js
var raf = require('raf')
raf(function tick() {
// Animation logic
raf(tick)
})
```
**Note:** The stream/event emitter logic found in versions prior to 1.0.0 can be found in [raf-stream](https://www.npmjs.org/package/raf-stream).
## Getting started
### CommonJS (Node, Browserify, Webpack, etc.)
Install `raf` from npm:
```bash
npm install --save raf
```
Require it like you would any other module:
```js
const raf = require('raf')
```
### AMD (require.js, etc)
Download the UMD-bundle from [wzrd.in](https://wzrd.in/standalone/raf@latest) (remember to include the current version number in the filename).
Add it to your AMD module loader config and require it like you would any other module:
```html
define(['raf'], raf => {...})
```
### `<script>`
Download the UMD-bundle from [wzrd.in](https://wzrd.in/standalone/raf@latest) (remember to include the current version number in the filename).
Then include it via a script tag:
```html
<script src="raf-x.x.x.js"></script>
```
The API will be available on `window.raf`.
## API
[Documentation at Mozilla Developer Network](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/window.requestAnimationFrame), [W3 Specification](http://www.w3.org/TR/animation-timing/#requestAnimationFrame)
### var handle = raf(callback)
`callback` is the function to invoke in the next frame. `handle` is a long integer value that uniquely identifies the entry in the callback list. This is a non-zero value, but you may not make any other assumptions about its value.
### raf.cancel(handle)
`handle` is the entry identifier returned by `raf()`. Removes the queued animation frame callback (other queued callbacks will still be invoked unless cancelled).
### raf.polyfill([object])
Shorthand to polyfill `window.requestAnimationFrame` and `window.cancelAnimationFrame` if necessary (Polyfills `global` in node).
Alternatively you can require `raf/polyfill` which will act the same as `require('raf').polyfill()`.
If you provide `object` the polyfills are attached to that given object, instead of the inferred global.
Useful if you have an instance of a fake `window` object, and want to add `raf` and `caf` to it.
