jQuery RS Carousel Quick Start

Include the following JavaScript and CSS:

<!-- carousel CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="dist/css/jquery.rs.carousel.css" media="all" />

<!-- lib -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="vendor/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="vendor/jquery.ui.widget.js"></script>
<!-- if using touch -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="vendor/jquery.event.drag.js"></script>
<!-- if using touch and translate3d -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="vendor/jquery.translate3d.js"></script>

<!-- carousel core -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/js/jquery.rs.carousel.js"></script>

<!-- carousel extensions (optional) -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/js/jquery.rs.carousel-autoscroll.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/js/jquery.rs.carousel-continuous.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/js/jquery.rs.carousel-touch.js"></script>

This is the basic HTML structure required:

<div class="rs-carousel">
    <ul>
        <li>
            <!-- item 1 content -->
        </li>
        <li>
            <!-- item 2 content -->
        </li>
        <li>
            <!-- item 3 content -->
        </li>
        <li>
            <!-- item 4 content -->
        </li>
        <li>
            <!-- item 5 content etc. -->
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>

Here's the JavaScript:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('.rs-carousel').carousel();
});

And here's the generated markup:

<div class="rs-carousel [rs-carousel-horizontal rs-carousel-vertical rs-carousel-disabled]">
    <div class="rs-carousel-mask">
        <ul class="rs-carousel-runner">
            <li class="rs-carousel-item [rs-carousel-item-active]">
                <!-- item 1 content -->
            </li>
            <li class="rs-carousel-item [rs-carousel-item-active]">
                <!-- item 2 content -->
            </li>
            <li class="rs-carousel-item [rs-carousel-item-active]">
                <!-- item 3 content -->
            </li>
            <li class="rs-carousel-item [rs-carousel-item-active]">
                <!-- item 4 content -->
            </li>
            <li class="rs-carousel-item [rs-carousel-item-active]">
                <!-- item 5 content etc. -->
            </li>
        </ul>
    </div>
    <ol class="rs-carousel-pagination [rs-carousel-pagination-disabled]">
        <li class="rs-carousel-pagination-link [rs-carousel-pagination-link-active]"><a href="#page-1">1</a></li>
        <li class="rs-carousel-pagination-link [rs-carousel-pagination-link-active]"><a href="#page-2">2</a></li>
    </ol>
    <a class="rs-carousel-action rs-carousel-action-prev [rs-carousel-action-active rs-carousel-action-disabled]" href="#">Prev</a>
    <a class="rs-carousel-action rs-carousel-action-next [rs-carousel-action-active rs-carousel-action-disabled]" href="#">Next</a>
</div>

Documentation

Options

mask: '> div' (string)

A jQuery selector to match the .rs-carousel-mask element. The DOM is queried from the widgets root element. If the mask isn't found it will get dynamically added by the plugin.

runner: '> ul' (string)

A jQuery selector to match the .rs-carousel-runner element. If the mask was found the DOM is queried from the mask otherwise it will be queried from the widgets root element.

items: '> li' (string)

A jQuery selector to match the .rs-carousel-item element(s). The DOM is queried from the widgets runner.

itemsPerTransition: 'auto' (string, number)

Sets the number of items to scroll per transition, if set to 'auto' the number of items scrolled will be based on how many items are visible.

orientation: 'horizontal' (string)

Sets the orientation of the carousel, either 'horizontal' or 'vertical'.

loop: false (boolean)

If set to true carousel will loop back to first or last page accordingly.

whitespace: false (boolean)

If set to true the carousel will allow whitespace to be seen when there aren't enough items to fill the last page.

nextPrevActions: true (boolean)

Sets whether the next and prev actions are included, next and prev actions are inserted as anchor tags.

insertPrevAction: function () { return $('<a href="#" class="rs-carousel-action rs-carousel-action-prev">Prev</a>').appendTo(this); } (function)

Allows you to define the prev actions mark-up as well as its location in the DOM.

The context of the function will be the carousels root element and the function should return a jQuery object, e.g.

function () {
    // this === <div class="rs-carousel"></div>
    return $('<a href="#">Prev</a>').appendTo(this);
}

insertNextAction: function () { return $('<a href="#" class="rs-carousel-action rs-carousel-action-next">Next</a>').appendTo(this); } (function)

Allows you to define the prev actions mark-up as well as its location in the DOM.

The context of the function will be the carousels root element and the function should return a jQuery object, e.g.

function () {
    // this === <div class="rs-carousel"></div>
    return $('<a href="#">Next</a>').appendTo(this);
}

pagination: true (boolean)

Sets whether pagination links should be included, pagination links are constructed as an ordered list.

insertPagination: function (pagination) { return $(pagination).insertAfter($(this).find('.rs-carousel-mask')); } (function)

Allows you to override where in the DOM the pagination links are inserted as well as decorate them with any required HTML.

The context of the function will be the carousels root element and the function should return a jQuery object containing the pagination, e.g.

function (pagination) {
    // this === <div class="rs-carousel"></div>
    // pagination === <ol class="rs-carousel-pagination"> ... </ol>
    return $(pagination).insertAfter($(this).find('.rs-carousel-mask'));
}

speed: 'normal' (string)

Sets the speed of the carousel.

NOTE: If using translate3d the speed must be set within CSS, for example:

.rs-carousel-transition .rs-carousel-runner {
    -moz-transition-duration: .200s;
    -webkit-transition-duration: .200s;
    -o-transition-duration: .200s;
    -ms-transition-duration: .200s;
    transition-duration: .200s;
}

easing: 'swing' (string)

Sets the easing equation used.

disabled: false (boolean)

If set to true carousel will no longer change state.

translate3d: false (boolean)

If set to true 3d css transforms are used instead of standard css left and top properties which can often result in smoother animations through hardware acceleration, this is especially apparent on iOS devices.

NOTE: jquery.rs.carousel doesn't handle feature detection of translate3d, instead this is left to third party libs such as Modernizr. An example usage might be:

$('.rs-carousel').carousel({
    translate3d: Modernizr && Modernizr.csstransforms3d
});

autoScroll: false (boolean)

Set to true to invoke auto scrolling, note when the mouse enters the carousel the interval will stop, it'll consequently begin when the mouse leaves.

NOTE: Requires the autoScroll extension (jquery.rs.carousel-autoscroll.js).

pause: 8000 (number)

Sets the amount of time in miliseconds the carousel waits before it automatically scrolls.

NOTE: Requires the autoScroll extension (jquery.rs.carousel-autoscroll.js).

continuous: false (boolean)

If set to true the carousel will continuously loop through its pages rather than scrolling all the way back to the first page.

NOTE: Requires the continuous extension (jquery.rs.carousel-continuous.js).

touch: false (boolean)

If set to true the carousel will become draggable allowing you to flick through pages.

NOTE: Currently the carousel will also be draggable using a mouse on non-touch devices, if this is undesired it can be conditionally turned on or off using a feature detection library such as Modernizr:

$('.rs-carousel').carousel({
    touch: Modernizr && Modernizr.touch
});

NOTE: Requires the touch extension (jquery.rs.carousel-touch.js).

Events

create: null (function)

Fired on first call.

It can be passed in the options object like this:

$(':rs-carousel').carousel({
   create: function (event, data) { ... }
});

and bound as an event like this:

$(':rs-carousel').on('carouselcreate', function (event, data) {
    ...
});

before: null (function)

Fired before transition. Calling preventDefault on the event object will prevent the carousel from scrolling.

It can be passed in the options object like this:

$(':rs-carousel').carousel({
    before: function (event, data) { ... }
});

and bound as an event like this:

$(':rs-carousel').on('carouselbefore', function (event, data) {
    ...
});

after: null (function)

Fired after transition.

It can be passed in the options object like this:

$(':rs-carousel').carousel({
    after: function(event, data) { ... }
});

and bound as an event like this:

$(':rs-carousel').on('carouselafter', function(event, data) {
    ...
});

All callbacks provide two arguments, the first of which is the event object which contains an animate property to determine whether the transition was animated or not (this can be useful if you're syncing up other animations with the slide). Also the event.originalEvent can be inspected to determine which method was used to invoke the transition, be it next, prev or goToPage.

The second argument is data which provides access to the carousels core elements as well as the current and previous pages:

{
    page: (jQuery object),
    prevPage: (jQuery object),
    elements: {
        mask: (jQuery object)
        runner: (jQuery object)
        items: (jQuery object)
        pagination: (jQuery object)
        nextAction: (jQuery object)
        prevAction: (jQuery object)
    }
}
