<h2>Introduction</h2>

[[CSS3-ANIMATIONS]] and [[CSS3-TRANSITIONS]] provide models for defining
declarative animations via CSS. [[SVG12]] provides a model for defining
declarative animations via SVG. However, the three specifications do not
define or present a unified animation model.

To solve this problem, the [[WEB-ANIMATIONS]] specification defines a
comprehensive animation model that is capable of supporting [[CSS3-ANIMATIONS]],
[[CSS3-TRANSITIONS]] and [[SVG12]].

This document describes how [[CSS3-ANIMATIONS]] and [[CSS3-TRANSITIONS]] are
supported by the [[WEB-ANIMATIONS]] model.

<h2>CSS Transitions</h2>

<div spec='css-transitions'>

For CSS Transitions, mappings into the Web Animations model are established
pairwise for a specific CSS property, the <dfn>transitioning property</dfn>, on
a specific element, the <dfn>transitioning element</dfn>.

When a CSS Transition is started for the <a>transitioning property</a> of a
<a>transitioning element</a>, an <a>Animation</a> is constructed and
associated with a <a>Player</a> on the <a>document timeline</a>, configured
with a <a>custom player priority</a> which ensures that the <a>Player</a> sorts
before <a>Player</a>s created through the Web Animations API and those generated
for CSS Animations. The <a>Animation</a> is configured as follows:

<ul>
<li>The <a>target element</a> is set to the <a>transitioning element</a>.
<li>The <a>start delay</a> is set to the current used value of the 'transition-delay'
property.
<li>The <a>iteration duration</a> is set to the current used value of the
'transition-duration' property.
<li>The <a>timing function</a> is set to the current used value of the
'transition-timing-function' property.
<li>The <a>animation effect</a> is set to a <a>keyframe animation effect</a>
with two <a>keyframes</a> defined as follows:
    <ul>
    <li>The first keyframe references the <a>transitioning property</a> with a
    value set to the <a>start value</a> of the transition.
    <li>The second and final keyframe references the
    <a>transitioning property</a> with a value set to the <a>end value</a> of
    the transition.
    </ul>
</ul>

Note, changes to the values of the 'transition-delay', 'transition-duration',
and 'transition-timing-function' have no effect on a transition once it has
started.

When a transition affecting the <a>transitioning property</a> of a
<a>transitioning element</a> is removed or interrupted the <a>cancel</a>
method of the corresponding <a>Player</a> is called.

When a transition affecting the <a>transitioning property</a> of a
<a>transitioning element</a> is reversed the <a>cancel</a>
method of the corresponding <a>Player</a> is called and a new <a>Player</a> is
generated as if the transition had just begun.

<h3>CSS Transitions events</h3>
The <a>transitionend</a> event is triggered to fire each time the
corresponding <a>Animation</a> enters the <a>after phase</a> during a
<a>sample</a>.
</div>

<h2>CSS Animations</h2>

<h3>The CSSKeyframesMap mapping</h3>

Issue: This feature is at risk.

<div spec='html5'>

<pre class='idl' style='display:none'>
//FIXME: figure out the appropriate thing to do here and remove this!

interface String { };
</pre>

<pre class='idl'>

[MapClass(String, AnimationEffect)]
interface CSSKeyframesMap {
};

partial interface Document {
    readonly attribute CSSKeyframesMap keyframes;
};
</pre>

</div>

<div spec='css-animations'>

<h4>The CSSKeyframesMap interface</h4>

The <dfn interface>CSSKeyframesMap</dfn> interface defines a map type that can
be used to store sequences of Keyframes indexed by Strings.

<h4>Document.keyframes</h4>

The <dfn attribute for='Document'>keyframes</dfn> attribute on the
<a interface spec='html5'>Document</a> interface references a map of type
<a interface>CSSKeyframesMap</a>.

Note: The <a interface>CSSKeyframesMap</a> enables animations created using the
Web Animations API to re-use the keyframe rules declared by CSS, and for
animations declared by CSS to act on <a interface>AnimationEffect</a>s created
through the API.

Note: The processing defined in this section does not alter the way in which
keyframes rules are selected when CSS animations are started, unless a name is
explicitly overridden by setting its value in the map.

When a new <a>@keyframes</a> rule name is encountered in a
style sheet, the action taken depends upon the current value stored against the
name in the <a attribute>keyframes</a> map.

<dl>
<dt>If the current value has never been set, or has only been set due to
style changes:</dt>
<dd>
The keyframes defined by the <a>@keyframes</a> rule are
converted into a <a interface>KeyframeEffect</a> (see
<a href='#conversion-of-css-keyframes' section></a>), then stored against the
name in the <a attribute>keyframes</a> map.
<dt>Otherwise:
<dd>
The rule is ignored.
</dl>

Issue: Should the KeyframeEffects generated by @keyframes rules be read-only?

When the used <a>@keyframes</a> rule associated with a
given name changes due to a change in a style sheet, the action taken depends
upon the current value stored against the name in the
<a attribute>keyframes</a> map.

<dl>
<dt>If the current value has only been set due to style changes:
<dd>
The keyframes defined by the new rule are converted into a
<a interface>KeyframeEffect</a>
(see <a href='#conversion-of-css-keyframes' section></a>), then stored
against the name in the <a attribute>keyframes</a> map.
<dt>Otherwise:
<dd>The change is ignored.
</dl>

When the last <a>@keyframes</a> rule for a given name is
removed from a style sheet, the action taken depends upon the current value
stored against the name in the <a attribute>keyframes</a>
map.

<dl>
<dt>If the current value has only been set due to style changes:
<dd>
The value referenced by the <a>@keyframes</a> name is
cleared from the <a attribute>keyframes</a> map.
<dt>Otherwise:
<dd>The removal is ignored.
</dl>

<h4 id='conversion-of-css-keyframes'>Converting a CSS Keyframes rule into a
KeyframeEffect</h4>

A CSS <a>@keyframes</a> rule <em>keyframes</em> is
converted into a <a interface>KeyframeEffect</a> using the following process:

<ol>
<li>Initialize an empty list <em>keyframeList</em>.
<li>For each <em>keyframe</em> in keyframes:
<ol>
<li>Create a new dictionary <em>newKeyframe</em>.
<li>Set <em>newKeyframe</em>'s <a>offset</a> to the offset defined by
<em>keyframe</em>.
<li>If <em>keyframe</em> defines an 'animation-timing-function', set
<em>newKeyframe</em>'s <a>easing</a> to the defined 'animation-timing-function'.
<li>For each <em>property</em> defined in <em>keyframe</em>:
<ol>
<li>Set <em>newKeyframe[property]</em> to the value associated with that
property in <em>keyframe</em>
<li>Add <em>property</em> to referencedProperties.
</ol>
</ol>
<li>Add <em>newKeyframe</em> to <em>keyframeList</em>.
<li>Remove keyframes with duplicated offsets from <em>keyframeList</em>such that
only the last keyframe to specify a given offset remains.
<li>Construct a new <a interface>KeyframeEffect</a>, providing
<em>keyframeList</em> as the frames parameter.
</ol>

</div>

<h3>Web Animations Instantiation</h3>

<div spec='css-animations'>

For CSS Animations, mappings into the Web Animations model are established
pairwise between a specific <a interface>AnimationEffect</a>, the
<dfn>animating effect</dfn>, and a specific element, the
<dfn>animating element</dfn>.

When a CSS Animation is to be started, the value of 'an
8000
imation-name' is used
as an index into the <a>keyframes</a> map, and the matching
<a interface>AnimationEffect</a> (if any) is used to instantiate the
<a>animating effect</a> by following the procedure defined below
(see <a section href='#instantiating-an-animating-effect'></a>).

When a CSS Animation is started an <a>Animation</a> is constructed and
associated with a <a>Player</a> on the <a>Document Timeline</a>. The animation
is configured as follows:

<ul>
<li>The <a>target element</a> is set to the <a>animating element</a>.
<li>The <a>start delay</a> is set to the current used value of the
'animation-delay' property for the <a>animating element</a>.
<li>The <a>iteration duration</a> is set to the current used value of the
'animation-duration' property for the <a>animating element</a>.
<li>The <a>iteration count</a> is set to the current used value of the
'animation-iteration-count' property for the <a>animating element</a>.
<li>The <a>direction</a> is set to the current used value of the
'animation-direction' property for the <a>animating element</a>.
<li>The <a>fill mode</a> is set to the current used value of the
'animation-fill-mode' property for the <a>animating element</a>.
<li>The <a>animation effect</a> is set to the <a>animating effect</a>
</ul>

Issue: Deal with animation-play-state

Issue: Explain where we need to cancel the Player for a css animation.

<h3>CSS Animations Events</h3>

The <a event>animationstart</a> event is triggered to fire each time the
corresponding <a>Animation</a> enters the <a>active phase</a> or
<a>after phase</a> during a <a>sample</a>.

The <a event>animationiteration</a> event is triggered to fire, on each <a>sample</a>
where all of the following conditions are met:
<ol>
<li>the corresponding <a>Animation</a> is in the <a>active phase</a>
<li>the corresponding <a>Animation</a> was in the <a>active phase</a> on the
last <a>sample</a>
<li>the corresponding <a>Animation</a> has a <a>current iteration</a> which is
different to the
<a>current iteration</a> of the last <a>sample</a>.
</ol>

The <a event>animationend</a> event is triggered to fire each time the
corresponding <a>Animation</a> enters the <a>after phase</a> during a
<a>sample</a>.

<h3 id='instantiating-an-animating-effect'>Instantiating the animating effect
</h3>

The <a>animating effect</a> is instantiated from an
<a interface>AnimationEffect</a> (the <em>reference effect</em>) stored in the
<a attribute>keyframes</a> attribute using the following process:

Issue: turn this into boring old specificese

<dl>
<dt>If the <em>reference effect</em> is a KeyframeEffect which was converted
from a CSS <a spec='css-animations'>@keyframes</a> rule using the process
defined in <a section href='#conversion-of-css-keyframes'></a>:
<dd>
<ol>
<li>The <em>result effect</em> is created as a clone of the
<em>reference effect</em>.
<li>Convert "add" keyframes at an offset of 0 and 1 by snapshotting
their referenced properties from the computed style of the
<a>animating element</a>, then changing the keyframe to a "replace" keyframe.
<li>Set the <a>easing</a> of all keyframes which do not have an <a>easing</a>
to the value of 'animation-timing-function'.
</ol>
<dt>Otherwise
<dd> The <a>animating effect</a> is the <em>reference effect</em>.

<h2>Exposure in the Web Animations API</h2>

<a>Player</a>s generated by CSS Animations and CSS Transitions are accessible
via <a>getAnimationPlayers</a> with the restriction that <a>source</a> will
point to a read-only <a>TimedItem</a> which disallows changes to its
<a>specified timing</a> and <a>effect</a>.

Note: The <a>Player</a> remains fully functional. The <a>source</a>,
<a>playbackRate</a>, <a>currentTime</a>, startTime and play control methods will
be live and function as normal.
