Create multiple rectangles of multiple sizes

[Petar]

I am currently creating a rectangle like so:

Quote

export function Rectangle(width, positionX, positionY) {
  let rectangle;
  rectangle = new PIXI.Graphics();
  rectangle.beginFill(0xFFFF00);
  rectangle.drawRect(0, 0, width, 10);
  rectangle.position.x = positionX;
  rectangle.position.y = positionY;
  return rectangle;
}

const rectangle = new Rectangle(100, 600, 300);
    stage.addChild(rectangle);

What I would like to be able to iterate through an array of objects that each contain width, positionX and positionY values, in order to be able to create / stage one group that contains all rectangles:

Quote

    let rectangle;
    rectanglesToRender.forEach((note, i) => {
      rectangle = new PIXI.Graphics();
      rectangle.beginFill(0xFFFF00);
      rectangle.drawRect(0, 0, rectangle.width, 10);
      rectangle.position.x = rectangle.positionX;
      rectangle.position.y = rectangle.positionY;
      stage.addChild(rectangle);
    });

I also need to be able to move the entire group of rectangles at a steady rate (something I'm already doing with the single rectangle) and I need to be able to do collision detection with each individual rectangle.

Any ideas?

The following is what I have done to create a group of sprites that I can animate as one:

 

Quote

    const texture = new PIXI.RenderTexture(renderer);
    const rectangle = new Rectangle(1000);
    renderer.render(rectangle, texture)

    const rectangles = new PIXI.DisplayObjectContainer();

    notesToRender.forEach((note, i) => {
      window['rectangle'+i] = new PIXI.Sprite(texture);
      window['rectangle'+i].width = note.width;
      window['rectangle'+i].position.x = note.positionX;
      window['rectangle'+i].position.y = note.positionY;
      window['rectangle'+i].hitArea = new PIXI.Rectangle(0, 0, 1, 400);
      rectangles.addChild(window['rectangle'+i]);
    });

    stage.addChild(rectangles);

I am still working on being able to do collision detection on a given child sprite.
