A Slide box contains pages that can be changed by swiping the content screen.
Using Slide Box
The usage of the slide box is simple. You just need to add ion-slide-box as a container and ion-slide with box class inside that container. We will add height and border to our boxes for better visibility.
HTML Code
<ion-slide-box> <ion-slide> <div class = "box box1"> <h1>Box 1</h1> </div> </ion-slide> <ion-slide> <div class = "box box2"> <h1>Box 2</h1> </div> </ion-slide> <ion-slide> <div class = "box box3"> <h1>Box 3</h1> </div> </ion-slide> </ion-slide-box> .box1, box2, box3 { height: 300px; border: 2px solid blue; }
The Output will look as shown in the following screenshot −
We can change the box by dragging the content to the right. We can also drag to the left to show the previous box.
A few attributes that can be used for controlling slide box behavior are mentioned in the following table.
Delegate Methods
Attribute | Type | Details |
---|---|---|
does-continue | Boolean | Should slide box loop when first or last box is reached. |
auto-play | Boolean | Should slide box automatically slide. |
slide-interval | number | Time value between auto slide changes in milliseconds. Default value is 4000. |
show-pager | Boolean | Should pager be visible. |
pager-click | expression | Called when a pager is tapped (if pager is visible). $index is used to match with different slides. |
on-slide-changed | expression | Called when slide is changed. $index is used to match with different slides. |
active-slide | expression | Used as a model to bind the current slide index to. |
delegate-handle | string | Used for slide box identification with $ionicSlideBoxDelegate. |
Slide Box Delegate
The $ionicSlideBoxDelegate is a service used for controlling all slide boxes. We need to inject it to the controller.
Controller Code
.controller(''MyCtrl'', function($scope, $ionicSlideBoxDelegate) { $scope.nextSlide = function() { $ionicSlideBoxDelegate.next(); } })
HTML Code
<button class = "button button-icon icon ion-navicon" ng-click = "nextSlide()"></button>
The following table shows $ionicSlideBoxDelegate methods.
Delegate Methods
Method | Parameters | Type | Details |
---|---|---|---|
slide(parameter1, parameter2) | to, speed | number, number | Parameter to represents the index to slide to. speed determines how fast is the change in milliseconds. |
enableSlide(parameter1) | shouldEnable | boolean | Used for enambling or disabling sliding. |
previous(parameter1) | speed | number | The value in miliseconds the change should take. |
stop() | / | / | Used to stop the sliding. |
start() | / | / | Used to start the sliding. |
currentIndex() | / | number | Returns index of the curent slide. |
slidesCount() | / | number | Returns total number of the slides. |
$getByHandle(parameter1) | handle | string | Used to connect methods to the particular slide box with the same handle. $ionicSlideBoxDelegate. $getByHandle(”my-handle”).start(); |
