All methods and properties listed on this page are public. If you want to take a look at example of what API can do, take a look in source of default PhotoSwipe UI.
You can get PhotoSwipe instance object during the initialization, e.g.:
var photoswipeInstance = new PhotoSwipe( /* ... */ );
var pswp = new PhotoSwipe( /* ... */ );
// Initialize and open gallery
// (you can bind events before this method)
pswp.init();
// Go to slide by index
// @param {int} `index`
pswp.goTo(index);
// Go to the next slide
pswp.next();
// Go to the previous slide
pswp.prev();
// Update gallery size
// @param {boolean} `force` If you set it to `true`,
// size of the gallery will be updated
// even if viewport size hasn't changed.
pswp.updateSize(force);
// Close gallery
pswp.close();
// Destroy gallery,
// automatically called after close()
pswp.destroy()
// Zoom current slide to (optionally with animation)
// @param {number} `destZoomLevel` Destination scale number. 1 - original.
// pswp.currItem.fitRatio - image will fit into viewport.
// @param {object} `centerPoint` Object of x and y coordinates, relative to viewport.
// @param {int} `speed` Animation duration. Can be 0.
// @param {function} `easingFn` Easing function (optional). Set to false to use default easing.
// @param {function} `updateFn` Function will be called on each update frame. (optional)
//
// Example below will 2x zoom to center of slide:
// pswp.zoomTo(2, {x:pswp.viewportSize.x/2,y:pswp.viewportSize.y/2}, 2000, false, function(now) {
//
// });
pswp.zoomTo(destZoomLevel, centerPoint, speed, easingFn, updateFn);
// Apply zoom and pan to the current slide
//
// @param {number} `zoomLevel`
// @param {int} `panX`
// @param {int} `panY`
//
// For example: `pswp.applyZoomPan(1, 0, 0)`
// will zoom current image to the original size
// and will place it on top left corner
//
//
pswp.applyZoomPan(zoomLevel, panX, panY);
// current slide object
pswp.currItem
// items array (slides, images)
pswp.items
// size of sliding viewport
pswp.viewportSize
// object holds all functions from framework
// framework-bridge.js
pswp.framework
// UI object (e.g. PhotoSwipeUI_Default instance)
pswp.ui
// background element (pswp__bg)
pswp.bg
// container element (pswp__container)
pswp.container
// options
pswp.options
// Even though methods below aren't technically properties, we list them here:
// current item index (int)
pswp.getCurrentIndex();
// total number of items
pswp.options.getNumItemsFn()
// current zoom level (number)
pswp.getZoomLevel();
// one (or more) pointer is used
pswp.isDragging();
// two (or more) pointers are used
pswp.isZooming();
// `true` when transition between is running (after swipe)
pswp.isMainScrollAnimating();
PhotoSwipe uses very simple Event/Messaging system. It has two methods shout
(triggers event) and listen
(handles event). For now there is no method to unbind listener, but all of them are cleared when PhotoSwipe is closed.
var pswp = new PhotoSwipe(/* ... */);
// Listen for "helloWorld" event
pswp.listen('helloWorld', function(name) {
alert('Name is: ' + name);
});
// Trigger "helloWorld" event
pswp.shout('helloWorld', 'John' /* you may pass more arguments */);
Available events:
// Before slides change
// (before the content is changed, but after navigation)
// Update UI here (like "1 of X" indicator)
pswp.listen('beforeChange', function() { });
// After slides change
// (after content changed)
pswp.listen('afterChange', function() { });
// Image loaded
pswp.listen('imageLoadComplete', function(index, item) {
// index - index of a slide that was loaded
// item - slide object
});
// Viewport size changed
pswp.listen('resize', function() { });
// Triggers when PhotoSwipe "reads" slide object data,
// which happens before content is set, or before lazy-loading is initiated.
// Use it to dynamically change properties
pswp.listen('gettingData', function(index, item) {
// index - index of a slide that was loaded
// item - slide object
// e.g. change path to the image based on `something`
if( something ) {
item.src = item.something;
} else {
item.src = item.somethingElse;
}
});
// Mouse was used (triggers only once)
pswp.listen('mouseUsed', function() { });
// Opening zoom in animation starting
pswp.listen('initialZoomIn', function() { });
// Opening zoom in animation finished
pswp.listen('initialZoomInEnd', function() { });
// Closing zoom out animation started
pswp.listen('initialZoomOut', function() { });
// Closing zoom out animation finished
pswp.listen('initialZoomOutEnd', function() { });
// Allows overriding vertical margin for individual items
pswp.listen('parseVerticalMargin', function(item) {
// For example:
var gap = item.vGap;
gap.top = 50; // There will be 50px gap from top of viewport
gap.bottom = 100; // and 100px gap from the bottom
})
// Gallery starts closing
pswp.listen('close', function() { });
// Gallery unbinds events
// (triggers before closing animation)
pswp.listen('unbindEvents', function() { });
// After gallery is closed and closing animation finished.
// Clean up your stuff here.
pswp.listen('destroy', function() { });
// Called when the page scrolls.
// The callback is passed an offset with properties {x: number, y: number}.
//
// PhotoSwipe uses the offset to determine the top-left of the template,
// which by default is the top-left of the viewport. When using modal: false,
// you should listen to this event (before calling .init()) and modify the offset
// with the template's getBoundingClientRect().
//
// Look at the "Implementing inline gallery display" FAQ section for more info.
pswp.listen('updateScrollOffset', function(_offset) {
var r = gallery.template.getBoundingClientRect();
_offset.x += r.left;
_offset.y += r.top;
});
// PhotoSwipe has a special event called pswpTap.
// It's dispatched using default JavaScript event model.
// So you can, for example, call stopPropagation on it.
// pswp.framework.bind - is a shorthand for addEventListener
pswp.framework.bind( pswp.scrollWrap /* bind on any element of gallery */, 'pswpTap', function(e) {
console.log('tap', e, e.detail);
// e.detail.origEvent // original event that finished tap (e.g. mouseup or touchend)
// e.detail.target // e.target of original event
// e.detail.releasePoint // object with x/y coordinates of tap
// e.detail.pointerType // mouse, touch, or pen
});
// Allow to call preventDefault on down and up events
pswp.listen('preventDragEvent', function(e, isDown, preventObj) {
// e - original event
// isDown - true = drag start, false = drag release
// Line below will force e.preventDefault() on:
// touchstart/mousedown/pointerdown events
// as well as on:
// touchend/mouseup/pointerup events
preventObj.prevent = true;
});
// Default UI events
// -------------------------
// Share link clicked
pswp.listen('shareLinkClick', function(e, target) {
// e - original click event
// target - link that was clicked
// If `target` has `href` attribute and
// does not have `download` attribute -
// share modal window will popup
});
To add, edit, or remove slides after PhotoSwipe is opened, you just need to modify the items
array. For example, you can push new slide objects into the items
array:
pswp.items.push({
src: "path/to/image.jpg",
w:1200,
h:500
});
If you changed slide that is CURRENT, NEXT or PREVIOUS (which you should try to avoid) – you need to call method that will update their content:
// sets a flag that slides should be updated
pswp.invalidateCurrItems();
// updates the content of slides
pswp.updateSize(true);
Otherwise, you don't need to do anything else. Except, maybe, calling pswp.ui.update()
if you want some parts of default UI to update (e.g. "1 of X" counter). Also note:
splice
to remove elements).goTo
method before.Some method or property is missing? Found a grammatical mistake? Know how this page can be improved? Please suggest an edit!
