how to Lottie / json animations?
-
Hello I have been making vector animations using Cavalry App and would like to export them as a Lottie / JSON file and upload them as looping background video animations to page rows.
Does anyone know how to do this?Thanks

Haven't tested out but you can try to:
- Include the Lottie library in your project via CDN Link
<script src="lottie.min.js"></script>
-
Give the row you would like to assign the animation to a class oder id (e.g. #animation-container)
<script> window.laytheme.on("newpageshown", function(){ const animationContainer = document.getElementById('animation-container'); // replace with your div ID const animationData = { container: animationContainer, renderer: 'svg', loop: true, autoplay: true, path: 'your-animation.json' // replace with the path to your Lottie JSON file }; const animation = lottie.loadAnimation(animationData); }); </script>
- Add this to your Custom CSS
#animation-container { background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8," + encodeURIComponent(animationData.container.innerHTML)); }
to make the created SVG your background-image
Good luck ;)
