minimal-lightbox

A minimal Medium.com-style lightbox for enlarging media using css transforms, scaling images from their position on a page

Install

No Dependencies

npm

$ npm install minimal-lightbox

Usage

There are two primary ways to consume this library:

  1. data-attributes on elements: they must be present when this library is loaded as it attempts to bind to all elements with [data-action=zoom].
  2. It also exposes an interface to programmatically bind to elements:
import minimalLightbox from 'minimal-lightbox';
 
// pass any selector/element node to the default import
minimalLightbox('.some-selector');
minimalLightbox(someElement);

Usage as an external script tag

When including this library as an external script tag (instead of with a module system like browserify or webpack) it exposes a global minimalLightbox as the main export. You can use that to programmatically bind elements to be zoomable.

Styles

This module is dependent on classes/styles to produce the lightbox effect, so your mileage may vary on certain older browsers.

You'll want to include the styles from the /dist directory as well.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='../dist/minimal-lightbox.css'>
</head>
<body>
  <img src='http://lorempixel.com/1000/400' data-action='zoom'/>
  
  <!-- include the package -->
  <script type="text/javascript" src="../dist/minimal-lightbox.js"></script> 
</body>
</html>
