How to change/update text dynamically using amp-bind in Google AMP ?
Sometimes you want to add custom interactivity to your AMP pages to make your pages look more user-friendly and user calling. Although AMP’s pre-built components are limited, so amp-bind is made to overcome this problem. It helps the developer to add custom interactivity to the pages without using AMP’s pre-built components. You can use amp-bind to change the text dynamically on user interaction with the page.
Setup: To use amp-bind in your page you have to import its script in the header of the document.
HTML
< script async custom-element = "amp-bind" src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-bind-0.1.js" > </ script > |
The amp-bind of Google AMP is comprised of three main concepts:
- State: State variables are responsible for the update on the page on the basis of user actions. It is very important to define a state variable.
- Expression: They are like JavaScript expressions used to refer to the state.
- Binding: They are a special attribute that is used to link an element’s property to a state via an expression.
To bind the text we will make use of attribute, it helps to change the text dynamically.
Example:
HTML
<!doctype html> < html amp> < head > < meta charset = "utf-8" > < title >Google AMP amp-bind</ title > < link rel = "canonical" href = "https://amp.dev/documentation/examples/components/amp-bind/index.html" > < meta name = "viewport" content = "width=device-width,minimum-scale=1,initial-scale=1" > < script async src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0.js" > </ script > < script async custom-element = "amp-bind" src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-bind-0.1.js" > </ script > < style amp-boilerplate> body { -webkit-animation: -amp-start 8s steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both; -moz-animation: -amp-start 8s steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both; -ms-animation: -amp-start 8s steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both; animation: -amp-start 8s steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both; } @-webkit-keyframes -amp-start { from { visibility: hidden } to { visibility: visible } } @-moz-keyframes -amp-start { from { visibility: hidden } to { visibility: visible } } @-ms-keyframes -amp-start { from { visibility: hidden } to { visibility: visible } } @-o-keyframes -amp-start { from { visibility: hidden } to { visibility: visible } } @keyframes -amp-start { from { visibility: hidden } to { visibility: visible } } </ style > < noscript > < style amp-boilerplate> body { -webkit-animation: none; -moz-animation: none; -ms-animation: none; animation: none } </ style > </ noscript > < style amp-custom> h1 { color: forestgreen; text-align: center; } </ style > </ head > < body > < h1 > Beginner For Beginner </ h1 > < div style = "padding: 1em;" > < div style = "color: crimson;" > Welcome < span ="myText"> to w3wiki</ span > </ div > < br > < button on = "tap:AMP.setState({ myText: 'Geek' })" > Click Me!! </ button > </ div > </ body > </ html > |
