LungoJS

A HTML5 framework for developers who want to design, build and share cross device applications.

  • HTML5 Optimized Apps: Supports open web standards, such as HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. It brings a consistent browser environment across mobiles, TVs and desktop devices.

  • Open Source Project: Each new line of code in Lungo is welcome, we hope that Developers and restless minds will help us to improve day by day this humble project.

  • Powerful JavaScript API: here are many ways to develop apps, not all of them are optimized. Lungo offers you a robust API so you can have complete control of everything that happens in your App.

  • Cross-Device full support: It's known that creating apps for each platform is expensive, this situation is increased by the arrival of tablets and SmartTVs. Lungo will suit all of them creating a unique and amazing UX.

Current version: 2.2.0

Getting Started

The idea of Lungo arose in year 2010 when the craftman Javi Jiménez Villar (soyjavi) saw that hot existing Mobile Frameworks at that time were not powerful and not using the features of HTML5.

Community

To talk with us or with other developers about the Lungo API, suscribe to our mailing list.

EASY PROTOTYPE

The main premise is to create a semantic structure in the whole project, starting from the markup language HTML, through a well organized CSS and ending with the JavaScript API. Lungo offers a great facility when prototyping applications, and will not be needed to enter any lines of code (JavaScript) to visualize how our application will behave. In this doc we will learn which are Lungo semantic elements as relate to each and how you can create applications with HTML only. It's really exciting! let's begin.

Structure

Here you have the dependencies of your Lungo application's body. It must contain at least:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="components/lungo.brownie/lungo.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="components/lungo.icon/lungo.icon.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="components/lungo.brownie/lungo.theme.css">
<script src="components/quojs/quo.js"></script>
<script src="components/lungo/lungo.js"></script>

<section> it's the main container of your UI Components in your App and <article> it must be placed inside your section and must have…. Each section and article must contain an unique ID.

<section id="main">
    <article id="main-article">
        Your content
    </article>
</section>

The JavaScript function that initializes Lungo it's:

Lungo.init({});

Load Sync resources on init

To make easier to create and modify your app you can create the sections in separate html files and load the synchonously, making your main file smaller and having your code organized better.

//Load resource on app init
Lungo.init({
    name: 'example',
    resources: ['section_to_load.html']
});

Load async resources by link

There is other way to load resources asynchronously, just add to the <a> tag element the attribute data-async with the link to the section.

<section id="loader" data-transition="">
    <article id="art1" class="active">
        <a href="#main" data-router="section" data-async="section_to_load.html">
            Go to section
        </a>
    </article>
</section>

Basic Elements

Lungo uses the semantic language markup introduced with HTML5, so you can add this elements using the new semantic tags.

Section & Article

A <section> is a view of our application where content will be displayed and where there may be subelements as <header>, <footer> and <article>.

<section id="main">
    <article id="main-article" class="active">
        {{CONTENT}}
    </article>
</section>

The content a particular <section> is structured by <article>. Within a section may be as many <article> as you like. The article of the section that will be shown first must have th class="active" attribute set.

<section id="main_section">
    <header data-title="example"></header>
    <article id="main-article" class="active">
        {{CONTENT}}
    </article>
</section>

Header

Each <section> can contain a <header> where the tittle of the section will be shown. Optionally you can add navigation buttons, to go to another section, go back to a previous one, go to another article or just open the aside menu.

<section id="main_section">
    <header data-title="example"></header>
    <article id="main-article" class="active">
        {{CONTENT}}
    </article>
</section>

Footer

Each <section> can contain a <footer>. There you can add buttons to navigate through articles, sections and even asides.

<section id="main_section">
    <article id="main" class="active">
        {{CONTENT}}
    </article>
    <footer>
        <nav>
            <a href="#" data-icon="menu" class="active"></a>
            <a href="#" data-icon="share"></a>
            <a href="#" data-icon="user"></a>
            <a href="#" data-icon="users"></a>
        </nav>
    </footer>
</section>

Aside

The <aside> element gives us a lateral area which will appear depending on the device (tablet) or hidden (mobile). Its structure is very similar to the section one's. We can create a link that references a <aside> with a particular id using the navigation system of Lungo. We will use the attribute data-router (which will be discussed in subsequent chapters). We can also define the positioning of it, using style classes. The default position is left.

<aside id="features">
    <header data-title="Options"></header>
    <article class="active">
        {{CONTENT}}
    </article>
</aside>

In your section if you want view aside automaticaly in Tablet-Apps you need link your aside with data-aside attribute, and you can display/hide with attribute data-view-aside:

<section id="main_section" data-aside="features">
    <header data-title="Aside">
        <nav>
            <button data-view-aside="features" data-icon="menu"></button>
        </nav>
    </header>
    <article id="main-article" class="active indented">
        {{CONTENT}}
    </article>
</section>

Navigation

The navigation in Lungo is entirely semantic, and you will use the element <a> or <button> and his data attribute "view-*" to tell the system which <section>, <article> or <aside> you want to go to.

Data-View attribute

The data-view-* attribute is set in the <a> or <button> element to set the type of element we are going to navigate to (<section>, <article> or <aside>) and in the href attribute the hashbang plus the id of the element has to be set. Lungo uses this href to generate the bread crumbs.

<section id="main">
    <article id="article_1" class="active">
        <button class="button" data-view-article="article_2" data-icon="forward">To article_2</button>
    </article>
    <article id="article_2">
        <button class="button" data-view-article="article_1" data-icon="home" data-label="To article_1"></button>
    </article>
</section>

Data-back attribute

As it has been said before, Lungo's navigation is based on the bread crumbs pattern, so navigation backwards between sections is done using the data-back functionality. You can set a button in your header using the data-back attribute or use in <a> or button tags data-router="section" with href="#back"

<section id="main">
	<article id="main_1" class="active">{{CONTENT}}</article>
    <article id="main_2">{{CONTENT}}</article>
</section>
<section id="second">
    <header data-back="home"></header>
    <article id="second_1" class="active">
        Same as header:
        <button data-view-section="back" data-icon="left" data-label="Return to previous section"></button>
    </article>
</section>

Nav

To create simple structures of navigation buttons within a footer or header the nav element has to be used. In the header, the nav element's position will depend on the class applied to it. left to the left and right to the right.

<section id="main">
    <header data-title="<nav> example">
        <nav class="on-left">
            <button data-view-article="article_1" data-label="Home"></button>
        </nav>
        <nav class="on-right">
            <button data-view-section="second" data-label="Section"></button>
        </nav>
    </header>

    <article id="article_1" class="active">{{CONTENT}}</article>
    <article id="article_2">{{OTHER_CONTENT}}</article>

    <footer>
        <nav>
            <a href="#" data-view-article="article_1" data-icon="home"></a>
            <a href="#" data-view-article="article_2" data-icon="user"></a>
            <a href="#" data-view-section="second" data-icon="right"></a>
        </nav>
    </footer>
</section>

<section id="second">
    <header data-back="home" data-title="example"></header>
    <article id="second_1">{{CONTENT}}</article>
</section>

Groupbar

Lungo gives you the capability to have a special menu at the top of your UI. To do this you have to extend the header element using class="extended" and create inside of it a nav element with class="groupbar"

<section id="main">
    <header data-title="groupbar" class="extended"></header>

    <nav data-control="groupbar">
        <a href="#" data-view-article="article_1" class="active">Art-1</a>
        <a href="#" data-view-article="article_2">Art-2</a>
    </nav>

    <article id="article_1" class="active">{{CONTENT}}</article>
    <article id="article_2">{{OTHER_CONTENT}}</article>
</section>

Menu

Besides <nav> elements and groupbar there is another way to make the user select new view in your application. Since Brownie (v2.2) implements menu Control and it is called with the attribute data-view-menu:

<section id="menu" data-transition="slide">
    <header data-title="data-control=menu">
        <nav>
            <a href="#" data-view-menu="options" data-icon="menu"></a>
        </nav>
        <nav class="on-right">
            <a href="#" data-view-menu="options-icons" data-icon="grid"></a>
        </nav>
    </header>  
    <nav id="options" data-control="menu">
	    <a href="#" data-view-article="home-menu" data-icon="menu">Home</a>
	    <a href="#" data-view-article="explore-menu" data-icon="globe">Explore</a>
	    <a href="#" data-view-article="activity-menu" data-icon="comments">Activity</a>
	    <a href="#" data-view-article="profile-menu" data-icon="user">Profile</a>
	</nav>
</section>

In case you want to give it a priority to icons only have to apply the icons class.

<nav id="options-icons" data-control="menu" class="icons"></nav>

Bindings

Title Binding

To update the title of a section through the navigation, just use the attribute data-title in your navigation element.

<section id="main">
    <header data-title="Default title"></header>
    <article id="first" class="active">
        <button data-view-article="second" data-title="Second Article"></button>
    </article>
    <article id="second">
        <button data-view-article="first" data-title="First Article"></button>
    </article>
</section>

Element binding

You can show nav elements when a particular article is visible with data-article attribute.

<section id="main">
    <header data-title="Title of section">
        <nav class="on-right">
            <button data-article="second" data-view-article="first" data-icon="left"></button>
            <button data-article="first" data-view-article="second" data-icon="right"></button>
        </nav>
    </header>
    <article id="first" class="active">{{CONTENT}}</article>
    <article id="second">{{OTHER_CONTENT}}</article>
</section>

Forms

We know that forms have always been somewhat tedious to handle in web projects, Lungo makes easy create a uniform base and unique experience among all browsers. All controls from the input (in any of its variants) to the button are perfectly adapted for use with touch devices. You only have to use the form or class form:

<div class="form">
	<fieldset>
	    <label>Input</label>
	    <input type="text" placeholder="value">
	    <label>Input styled</label>
	    <input type="text" placeholder="value on right" class="text align_right error">
	    <label>Select</label>
	    <label class="select">
	        <select>
	            <option value="1">HTML5</option>
	            <option value="2">CSS3</option>
	            <option value="3">JavaScript</option>
	        </select>
	    </label>
	    <label>Input date</label>
	    <input type="date" class="align_right" placeholder="Select finish" value="10/04/1980"/>
        <label class="anchor">Example of touch checkbox</label>
        <input type="checkbox" class="inline right" />
	</fieldset>
</div>

Lists

Can you imagine an App without lists? we can't conceive of such a thing, so in Lungo offers you an multiple components to make lists tailored to your needs. Always keeping in mind that everything starts with a <ul> and continous with a <li>:

<article id="example" class="list">
   <ul>
		<li>
			<strong>Title</strong>
			<small>Description</small>			
		</li>
		...
   </ul>
</article>

Our <li> element can be filled by multiple ways and how complex it all you want, check out a list item much more complete:

<li class="thumb big">
    <img src="http://cdn.tapquo.com/lungo/icon-144.png" />
    <div>
        <div class="on-right text tiny">lorem ipsum</div>
        <strong>Title</strong>
        <span class="text tiny opacity">lorem ipsum</span>
        <small>
            Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Neque, aliquam, nisi commodi blanditiis.
        </small>
    </div>
</li>

If you want to know more about the possible styles of the lists have to study the examples in our wonderful Kitchen-Sink.

JavaScript API

Core

Lungo has several methods that are used inside its engine. Here you have them if you need to include some of their functionality in your application.

log()

Console system to display messages when you are in debug mode. Parameters

number:     Severity based in (1)Log, (2)Warn, (>2)Error
string:     Message to show in the console

Example

Lungo.Core.log(1, "Launched event");
Lungo.Core.log(2, "Warning!!");
Lungo.Core.log(3, "Error!!!!");

execute()

Executes callbacks based on the parameters received. Parameters

function:   callback to execute

Example

var myFunc = function(){
    //Do something
};
var myFunc2 = function(){
    //Do something
};
Lungo.Core.execute(myFunc, myFunc2);

bind()

Creates a new function that, when called, itself calls this function in the context of the provided this value, with a given sequence of arguments preceding any provided when the new function was called. Parameters

object:     object that 'this' can refer in the new function.
function:   A function object.

This method return the function which will do the action on the object.

Example

var example = "This is ";
var addText = function(textToAdd){
    text = this;
    for(var i = 0, len = textToAdd.length; i < len; i++){
        text += " " + textToAdd[i];
    }
    return text;
};
var text = ["an", "example"];
var finalText = Lungo.Core.bind(example, addText)(text);
//Result: "This is an example"

mix()

Copy from any number of objects and mix them all into a new object. The implementation is simple; just loop through arguments and copy every property of every object passed to the function.

Parameters

object:     arguments to mix them all into a new object.
object:     arguments to mix them all into a new object.

This method return an object with the mix done.

Example

var CONFIG_BASE = {
    name: 'lungo_db',
    version: '1.0'
};

var CONFIG = {
    version: '1.1';
}

var finalConfig = lng.Core.mix(CONFIG_BASE, CONFIG);

/*
Result:
{
    name: 'lungo_db',
    version: '1.1'
}
*/

isOwnProperty()

Every object descended from Object inherits the hasOwnProperty method. This method can be used to determine whether an object has the specified property as a direct property of that object.

Parameters

object:     object to test for a property's existence inside itself.
string:     property the name of the property to test.

This method return boolean indicating if property exists.

Example

var car = {wheels:4,doors:true};
Lungo.Core.isOwnProperty(car,"wheels"); //Result: true
Lungo.Core.isOwnProperty(car,"wings");      //Result: false

toType()

Determine the internal JavaScript [[Class]] of an object.

Parameters

object:     object to get the real type of itself.

This method return a string with the internal JavaScript [[Class]]

Example

var name = "Lungo";
Lungo.Core.toType(name);    //Result: "string"

toArray()

Convert an array-like object into a true JavaScript array.

Parameters

object:     Any object to turn into a native Array.

This method return the object in a plain array.

Example

var execute = function() {
    var args = lng.Core.toArray(arguments);
}

isMobile()

Determine if the current environment is a mobile environment. This method return An object with the mix done. Example

Lungo.Core.isMobile();

environment()

Returns information of execute environment. Example

Lungo.Core.environment();

orderByProperty()

Orders a number of objects by a given parameter.

Parameters

list:       List of objects.
string:     Name of the property.
string:     Type of order: asc or desc.

This method return an ordered list of objects by a property.

Example

var list = [
    {name: 'Lungo', twitter: 'lungojs'},
    {name: 'Quojs', twitter: 'quojs'},
];

var ordered_list = lng.Core.orderByProperty(list, 'name', 'asc');

findByProperty()

Finds a object with an specific property if exists in a list of Objects.

Parameters

list:       The list with objects.
string:     Name of the property.

This method return An instance of the object found, null if not found.

Example

var list = [
    {name: 'Lungo', twitter: 'lungojs'},
    {name: 'Quojs', twitter: 'quojs'},
];

var user = lng.Core.findByProperty(list, 'name', 'Lungo');

Cache

Lungo implements its own cache type. This cache will store the value until the webapp is closed

set()

Sets in the LungoJS cache system a new key/value pair.

Parameters

string:     Key for the new value.
string:     [OPTIONAL] Subkey in LungoJS Cache System.
object:     Value asigned to the key.

Example

var framework = {name: "Lungo", twitter: "lungojs"};
Lungo.Cache.set("lungoFramework", framework);

get()

Returns the cached value of a given key.

Parameters

string:      Key in LungoJS Cache System.
string:     [OPTIONAL] Subkey in LungoJS Cache System.

This method return an object containing the value.

Example

var cachedFramework = Lungo.Cache.get("lungoFramework");
//Result: {name: "Lungo", twitter: "lungojs"}

remove()

Removes the instance of a given key in LungoJs Cache System.

Parameters

string:     Key in LungoJS Cache System.
string:     [OPTIONAL] Subkey in LungoJS Cache System.

Example

Lungo.Cache.remove("lungoFramework");

exists()

Checks if the given key is stored in the cache.

Parameters

string Key in LungoJS Cache System.

This method return a boolean value which is true if the key is found

Example

Lungo.Cache.exists("lungoFramework");

DOM

Lungo uses the famous library QuoJS to handle the DOM of your application. QuoJS is a micro, modular, Object-Oriented and concise JavaScript Library that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, and Ajax interactions for rapid mobile web development. It allows you to write powerful, flexible and cross-browser code with its elegant, well documented, and micro coherent API.

Manipulation

Using QuoJs, you can chain functions to execute several commands in one row. For more info about Quo's API please go here.

Example

<section id="main"">
    <header data-title="Dom Manipulation"></header>

    <article id="main-article" class="active">
        <ul>
            <li class="dark">
                Tap here to change the color
            </li>
        </ul>
    </article>
</section>

Subscribe to a tap event with a callback

Lungo.dom('#main-article li').tap(function(event) {
    Lungo.dom(this).toggleClass('light').toggleClass('dark');
});

Triggers

When sections or articles are switched an event is launched. The target section/article will launch an load event and the current section/article will launch the unload one. We can bind to this events using QuoJs. Example

<section id="section1">
    <article id="article1">
        <button data-view-section="section2" data-label="2nd Section"></button>
    </article>
</section>
<section id="section2">
    <article id="article2">{{CONTENT}}</article>
</section>
Lungo.dom('#section1').on('unload', function(event) {
    alert("Unloaded section 1");
});

Lungo.dom('#section2').on('load', function(event){
    alert("Loaded section 2");
});

.Element

.Carousel

Lungo has a carousel element where content can be published and the user can navigate through it using the caroussel controls.

Parameters

string:     Element query selector.
function:   Function to execute when switching slide.

Example

<section id="carousel" data-transition="slide">
    <header>
        <div class="centered title">Photo: <span>1</span></div>
    </header>
    <article id="art" class="active block" data-control="carousel">
        <div>
            <div align="center">

var example = Lungo.Element.Carousel(el, function(index, element) {
    Lungo.dom("section#carousel .title span").html(index + 1);
});

Carousel.prev()

Show the previous slide. Example

var example = Lungo.Element.Carousel(el);
Lungo.dom('[data-direction=left]').tap(example.prev);

Carousel.next()

Show the next slide. Example

var example = Lungo.Element.Carousel(el);
Lungo.dom('[data-direction=left]').tap(example.next);

Carousel.position()

Returns the actual index. Example

var example = Lungo.Element.Carousel(el);
example.next();
alert(example.position());

.count

As it has been shown in the prototyping chapter, you can add a counter to elements using the data-count attribute. You can also add this counter using javascript.

JavaScript method

Set a counter to the element:

Parameters

string:     Element query selector.
number:     Value of the counter.

Example

Lungo.Element.count("#messages", 5);
