Usage

Lightbox

This is a basic example how create a lightbox.

Add the following HTML snippet to your view:

<div id="blueimp-gallery" class="blueimp-gallery">
  <div class="slides"></div>
  <h3 class="title"></h3>
  <a class="prev"></a>
  <a class="next"></a>
  <a class="close">×</a>
  <a class="play-pause"></a>
  <ol class="indicator"></ol>
</div>

Add a list of image links you want to show into your gallery:

<div id="links">
  <a href="images/photo1.jpg" title="Photo 1">
    <img src="images/thumb_photo1.jpg" alt="Photo 1">
  </a>
  <a href="images/photo2.jpg" title="Photo 2">
    <img src="images/thumb_photo2.jpg" alt="Photo 2">
  </a>
  <a href="images/photo3.jpg" title="Photo 3">
    <img src="images/thumb_photo3.jpg" alt="Photo 3">
  </a>
</div>

Finally add this JavaScript to display the images in your beautiful gallery:

<script>
document.getElementById('links').onclick = function (event) {
  event = event || window.event;
  var target = event.target || event.srcElement,
    link = target.src ? target.parentNode : target,
    options = {index: link, event: event},
    links = this.getElementsByTagName('a');
  blueimp.Gallery(links, options);
};
</script>

or CoffeeScript if you want to add the script as an asset:

document.getElementById("links").onclick = (event) ->
  event = event or window.event
  target = event.target or event.srcElement
  link = (if target.src then target.parentNode else target)
  options =
    index: link
    event: event

  links = @getElementsByTagName("a")
  blueimp.Gallery links, options

Carousel

If you want a Carousel gallery, replace the html snippet with:

<div id="blueimp-gallery-carousel" class="blueimp-gallery blueimp-gallery-carousel">
  <div class="slides"></div>
  <h3 class="title"></h3>
  <a class="prev"></a>
  <a class="next"></a>
  <a class="play-pause"></a>
  <ol class="indicator"></ol>
</div>

And add this JavaScript:

<script>
blueimp.Gallery(
  document.getElementById('links').getElementsByTagName('a'),
  {
    container: '#blueimp-gallery-carousel',
    carousel: true
  }
);
</script>

or CoffeeScript if you want to add the script as an asset:

blueimp.Gallery document.getElementById("links").getElementsByTagName("a"),
  container: "#blueimp-gallery-carousel"
  carousel: true
