A runtime-managed animated image - most typically a GIF.
The amp-anim
component is very similar to the amp-image
element, and provides additional functionality to manage loading and playing of animated images such as GIFs.
The amp-anim
component can also have an optional placeholder child, to display while the src
file is loading. The placeholder is specified via the placeholder
attribute:
<amp-anim width=400 height=300 src="my-gif.gif">
<amp-img placeholder width=400 height=300 src="my-gif-screencap.jpg">
</amp-img>
</amp-anim>
src
Similar to the src
attribute on the img
tag. The value must be a URL that
points to a publicly-cacheable image file. Cache providers may rewrite these
URLs when ingesting AMP files to point to a cached version of the image.
srcset
Same as srcset
attribute on the img
tag.
alt
A string of alternate text, similar to the alt
attribute on img
.
attribution
A string that indicates the attribution of the image. E.g. attribution="CC courtesy of Cats on Flicker"
amp-img
can be styled directly via CSS properties. Setting a grey background
placeholder for example could be achieved via:
amp-anim {
background-color: grey;
}
