Carousel

The Bootstrap carousel component, implemented in Ruby. Use it like any other matestack component in your apps, pages and components. It offers customizable options to simply achieve what is possible in bootstrap with this component. See below for more information about the possible options.
bs_carousel(*args, &block)
Returns a bootstrap carousel containing a hash of items with path, title, text and interval. Also the carousel is customizable with the following options.
Optional options
:controls - If set true, the previous and next arrows will be visible
:indicators - If set true, the bottom indicators will be visible
:fade - If set true, the animation when switching between items will be faded animation instead of sliding animation
:start - Set the active item for carousel at the beginning. Counting start at 0.
:variant - If :dark, the dark carousel theme will be applied (using css class carousel-dark)
:cycle_on - Cycles through the carousel items from left to right.
:pause_on - Stops the carousel from cycling through items.
:prev_on - Cycles to the previous item.
:next_on - Cycles to the next item.
Html attributes - all w3c confirm html attributes for div's can be set via options and will be added to the surrounding carousel div.
Further explanation
:items array: each item can include a hash with path, title, text and interval where path is the image-url, interval is the amount of time to delay between automatically cycling to the next item, title and text is the caption of the item
:cycle_on, :pause_on, :prev_on, :next_on are JavaScript behaviors which can be trigger for example by an onclick method
Examples
Example 1: Basic Carousel with 2 items
bs_carousel items: [
          { path: image_url("matestack-data.png") },
          { path: image_url("matestack-data.png") }
        ]
returns
<div id="..." class="carousel slide" data-bs-ride="carousel">
  <div class="carousel-inner">
    <div class="carousel-item active">
      <img src="matestack-data.png" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
    </div>
    <div class="carousel-item">
      <img src="matestack-data.png" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
Example 2: Basic Carousel with captions and different interval
# declare items array before using carousel component
items = [
    { path: image_url("matestack-data.png"),
      title: "First slide", text: "First slide text caption",
      interval: 20000 },
    { path: image_url("matestack-data.png"),
      title: "Second slide", text: "Second slide text caption",
      interval: 5000 }
]
bs_carousel items: items
returns
<div id="..." class="carousel slide" data-bs-ride="carousel">
  <div class="carousel-inner">
    <div class="carousel-item active" data-bs-interval="20000">
      <img src="matestack-data.png" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
      <div class="carousel-caption d-none d-md-block">
        <h5>First slide</h5>
        <p>First slide text caption</p>
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="carousel-item" data-bs-interval="5000">
      <img src="matestack-data.png" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
      <div class="carousel-caption d-none d-md-block">
        <h5>Second slide</h5>
        <p>Second slide text caption</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
Example 3: Using controls, indicators and faded animation
items = [
  { path: image_url("matestack-data.png") },
  { path: image_url("matestack-data.png") }
]
bs_carousel controls: true, indicators: true, fade: true, items: items
returns
<div id="..." class="carousel slide carousel-fade" data-bs-ride="carousel">
  <ol class="carousel-indicators">
    <li data-bs-target="#carouselExampleIndicators" data-bs-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
    <li data-bs-target="#carouselExampleIndicators" data-bs-slide-to="1"></li>
    <li data-bs-target="#carouselExampleIndicators" data-bs-slide-to="2"></li>
  </ol>
  <div class="carousel-inner">
    <div class="carousel-item active">
      <img src="matestack-data.png" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
    </div>
    <div class="carousel-item">
      <img src="matestack-data.png" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
    </div>
  </div>
    <a class="carousel-control-prev" href="#carouselExampleControls" role="button" data-bs-slide="prev">
    <span class="carousel-control-prev-icon" aria-hidden="true"></span>
    <span class="sr-only">Previous</span>
  </a>
  <a class="carousel-control-next" href="#carouselExampleControls" role="button" data-bs-slide="next">
    <span class="carousel-control-next-icon" aria-hidden="true"></span>
    <span class="sr-only">Next</span>
  </a>
</div>
Example 4: Trigger Carousel per event
with cycle_on, pause_on, prev_on, next_on you can trigger the JavaScript behaviors of carousel per event
cycle_on and pause_on can be use similarly as the exmample with prev_on and next_on below
items = [
  { path: image_url("matestack-data.png") },
  { path: image_url("matestack-data.png") }
]
bs_carousel prev_on: "prev-carousel", next_on: "next-carousel", items: items
​
onclick emit: "prev-carousel" do
  bs_btn "Prev"
end
onclick emit: "next-carousel" do
  bs_btn "Next"
end
