Animating Bootstrap progress bar width with jQuery

Question

I want to animate a progress bar's width from 0% to 70% over 2.5 seconds. However, the code below immediately changes the width to 70% after a 2.5 second delay. What am I missing?

$(".progress-bar").animate({
    width: "70%"
}, 2500);

Answer 1

The problem is in default Bootstrap transition effect, which animates any update of the width property.

If you switch it off with supressing the corresponding style, it will work fine, eg:

.progress-bar {
    -webkit-transition: none !important;
    transition: none !important;
}

IT'S very EASY if uses bootstrap progress bar,

only add attrib aria-valuenow="percent_required%" to div with class "progress-bar" like this:

<div class="progress-bar progress-bar-success" role="progressbar" aria-valuenow="57%" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="57">

Next, on script:

<script>
  $(document).on('ready',function(){
    $('.progress .progress-bar').css("width",function() {
      return $(this).attr("aria-valuenow") + "%";
    })
  })
</script>

Reload, Go!

Answer 3

So, it makes more sense to adjust the transition effect via CSS or jQuery.

.progress-bar {
    -webkit-transition: width 2.5s ease;
    transition: width 2.5s ease;
}

And just change the width value.

$(".progress-bar").css('width', '70%');

You can fix it by adding:

.progress .progress-bar {
  transition: unset;
}

 var delay = 500; $(".progress-bar").each(function(i) { $(this).delay(delay * i).animate({ width: $(this).attr('aria-valuenow') + '%' }, delay); $(this).prop('Counter', 0).animate({ Counter: $(this).text() }, { duration: delay, // easing: 'swing', step: function(now) { $(this).text(Math.ceil(now) + '%'); } }); }); 

 .progress { margin-bottom: 20px; } .progress-bar { width: 0; } .bg-purple { background-color: #825CD6 !important; } .progress .progress-bar { transition: unset; }
