After hf#641 inlined the runtime IIFE into every bundle, lint tools
inspecting bundled output (including Abhay's c2v eval) started flagging
empty `catch {}` blocks across the runtime. The source had explanatory
comments inside, but esbuild's minifier strips them — the IIFE ships
~10 visible patterns of `}catch{}` and consumers' linters fire on each.
Each empty catch is intentional best-effort error swallowing —
postMessage to a parent frame that may not exist, `media.play()` /
`pause()` that throw under autoplay restrictions, timeline `seek()` on
a disposed timeline, anime.js / lottie feature detection on hosts that
don't load those libraries, etc. The right behaviour stays "tried,
didn't work, move on", but doing it visibly improves three things:
- lint clean: helper call is a real statement; no `no-empty` warnings
survive minification
- debuggable: flip `window.__hfDebug = true` in DevTools to see every
swallow site with `console.debug` (silent in prod by default)
- observable: studio / embeddings can install
`window.__hf.onSwallowed = handler` to collect runtime swallow
events without polluting the page console
Implementation: `packages/core/src/runtime/diagnostics.ts` exports
`swallow(label, err?)`. 41 catch sites across 12 runtime files
converted via mechanical pass (auto-generated `runtime.<module>.siteN`
labels — labels can be tightened site-by-site as a follow-up; the
shape of the change is what matters here).
Verification:
- core 674/674 (incl. 6 new diagnostics tests covering silent default,
__hfDebug logging, legacy __HYPERFRAMES_DEBUG flag, handler hook,
handler-throws-doesn't-recurse, both-active)
- typecheck clean
- format / lint clean
- runtime IIFE rebuilds successfully (`bun run build:hyperframes-runtime`)
Refs Abhay's c2v eval — bundler artefacts now lint-clean with the
runtime body inlined.
@hyperframes/core
Types, parsers, generators, compiler, linter, runtime, and frame adapters for the Hyperframes video framework.
Install
npm install @hyperframes/core
Most users don't need to install core directly — the CLI, producer, and studio packages depend on it internally.
What's inside
| Module | Description |
|---|---|
| Types | TimelineElement, CompositionSpec, Asset, canvas dimensions, defaults |
| Parsers | parseHtml — extract timeline elements from HTML; parseGsapScript — parse GSAP animations |
| Generators | generateHyperframesHtml — produce valid Hyperframes HTML from a composition spec |
| Compiler | compileTimingAttrs — resolve data-start / data-duration into absolute times |
| Linter | lintHyperframeHtml — validate Hyperframes HTML (missing attributes, overlapping tracks, etc.) |
| Runtime | IIFE script injected into the browser — manages seek, media playback, and the window.__hf protocol |
| Frame Adapters | Pluggable animation drivers (GSAP, Lottie, CSS, or custom) |
Frame Adapters
A frame adapter tells the engine how to seek your animation to a specific frame:
import { createGSAPFrameAdapter } from "@hyperframes/core";
const adapter = createGSAPFrameAdapter({
getTimeline: () => gsap.timeline(),
compositionId: "my-video",
});
Implement FrameAdapter for custom animation runtimes:
import type { FrameAdapter } from "@hyperframes/core";
const myAdapter: FrameAdapter = {
id: "my-adapter",
getDurationFrames: () => 300,
seekFrame: (frame) => {
/* seek your animation */
},
};
Parsing and generating HTML
import { parseHtml, generateHyperframesHtml } from "@hyperframes/core";
const { elements, metadata } = parseHtml(htmlString);
const html = generateHyperframesHtml(spec);
Linting
import { lintHyperframeHtml } from "@hyperframes/core/lint";
const result = lintHyperframeHtml(htmlString);
// result.findings: { severity, message, elementId }[]
