Svelte Carousel
This project is now archived. We don't use carousels any more, and you shouldn't either.
Svelte Carousel
Svelte Carousel / Slider
This is a ground-up rewrite of the original Svelte Carousel/Slider using Svelte v3, and Siema, the goal being a fully working carousel with a tiny size.
Usage
This library is pure javascript, so can be used with any framework you like.
Demo
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:12001
To use within a Svelte application:
npm i -D @beyonk/svelte-carousel
Usage
<Carousel>
<div class="slide-content">Slide 1</div>
<div class="slide-content">Slide 2</div>
<div class="slide-content">Slide 3</div>
<div class="slide-content">Slide 4</div>
</Carousel>
<script>
import Carousel from '@beyonk/svelte-carousel'
import { ChevronLeftIcon, ChevronRightIcon } from 'svelte-feather-icons'
</script>
Options
Controls
You can set the controls to be anything you like, though the default height and width are set to 40px. Just use the slots available to insert your own content.
npm i -D svelte-feather-icons
<Carousel>
<span class="control" slot="left-control">
<ChevronLeftIcon />
</span>
<div class="slide-content">Slide 1</div>
...
<div class="slide-content">Slide n</div>
<span class="control" slot="right-control">
<ChevronRightIcon />
</span>
</Carousel>
<script>
import Carousel from './Carousel.svelte'
import { ChevronLeftIcon, ChevronRightIcon } from 'svelte-feather-icons'
</script>
If you need to override height and width, you can use CSS:
.control :global(svg) {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
color: #fff;
border: 2px solid #fff;
border-radius: 32px;
}
Attributes
You can pass the following attributes:
| Attribute | Type | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| loop | boolean | true | At the end of the carousel, loop through to the first slide again, seamlessly |
| perPage | integer | 3 | Number of slides on a single page. Note that this needs to be less than or equal to the number of slides in your carousel |
| autoplay | integer | 0 | Auto-change slide at an interval (in milliseconds). 0 means don't autoplay. |
| duration | number | 200 | Slide transition duration in milliseconds. |
| easing | string | 'ease-out' | It is like a CSS transition-timing-function — describes acceleration curve. |
| startIndex | number | 0 | Index (zero-based) of the starting slide. |
| draggable | boolean | true | Use dragging and touch swiping. |
| multipleDrag | boolean | true | Allow dragging to move multiple slides. |
| dots | boolean | true | Toggles visibility of slider dots. |
| controls | boolean | true | Toggles visibility of slider controls. dots. |
| threshold | number | 20 | Touch and mouse dragging threshold (in px). |
| rtl | boolean | false | Enables layout for languages written from right to left (like Hebrew or Arabic). |
perPage can also be set to a responsive object, to change the number of slides based on screen width:
<Carousel perPage={{ 800: 3, 500: 2 }}>
// will show 1 slide below 500px width, 2 at 500, 3 at 800.

The Carousel components emits the following events:
| Name | Data | Description |

change |
{ currentSlide, slideCount } |
currentSlide: The current slide index. Can be a positive or negative integer. slideCount: The number of slides. |
Actions

<Carousel bind:this={carousel} on:mouseenter={enter} on:mouseleave={leave}>
<div class="slide-content">Slide 1</div>
...
<div class="slide-content">Slide n</div>
