React Flex Slick

This is library aims to replace react-slick.

Uses flexbox exclusively, so no support for older browsers :cry: :cry:

On the bright side, it is extremly flexible. Currently it supports >=react-0.14 including rc's

Any questions?? Join here

Examples

To run the examples:

1. git clone http://github.com/vramana/react-flex-slick
2. cd react-flex-slick && npm i
3. npm start

What works

• Infinite and Non-infinite Mode
• Pages
• Horizontal and Vertical Sliding
• Multiple Slides per page (slidesToScroll = slidesToShow)
• Left and Right Arrows to go back and forth
• Arrows have active and inactive classes.
• Custom Arrows
• Touch Scrolling/Mouse Dragging
• Edge Friction

TODO

• Feature Parity with Slick Carousel
• Examples
• Documentation
• Tests

Comparision with Slick

Settings

• cssEase - renamed to transitionTimingFn
• speed - renamed to transitionSpeed
• easing - Not supported: Minimum browser support ensure CSS Transistions are present.
• arrows - Alternate way: Instead of arrows pass empty <div> to the Slider
• appendArrows, appendDots - Not supported due the architecture of component
• mobileFirst - Alternate way: Control the size of Slider just usign css on the parent class
• prevArrow, nextArrow - Alternate way: Just put a ref on prevArrow and nextArrow
• infinite - works as expected
• initialSlide - works as expected
• rows - Alternate way: Pass pages of slides instead of slides
• slidesPerRow - Alternate Way: Pass pages of slides instead of slides
• vertical - works as expected
• swipe, verticalSwiping - merged into swipe - works as expected
• touchMove - works as expected
• draggable - works as expected
• edgeFriction - works as expected
• touchThreshold - fraction by which you should slide for slide to change - lies between 0 and 1
• autoPlay, autoPlaySpeed - works as expected. Bonus: If the mounted component with autoPlay recieve autoPlay={false} then it will pause the slider.
• zIndex - Not supported: No support for IE 9 itself requires atleast IE11
• centerPadding - Alternate way: Use css on pages to manipulate this
• customPaging - Alternate way: Just pass your slides in pages whatever way you want
• waitForAnimate - This is the default behaviour of current slider. Otherwise behaviour is not implemented yet.
• useCSS - Not supported: We don't have to fallback for jQuery animations for ancient browsers because we dont support them in first place.
• dots, dotClass - works almost as expected. Instead of dotClass on slider give it as className in the Dots component

Remaining: slidesToShow, slidesToScroll, accessibility, rtl, pauseOnHover, pauseOnDotsHover, responsive, swipeToSlide, slide, variableWidth, centerMode, fade, lazyLoad, respondTo

Progress - Total: 43 Current: 29

Events

• beforeChange - beforeChange(prevSlide, currSlide) but doesn't have the event handler
• afterChange - afterChange(prevSlide, currSlide) but doesn't have the event handler
• swipeEvent - swipeEvent(direction) but doesn't have the event handler
• edgeEvent - edgeEvent(direction) but doesn't have the event handler
• init, reInit - Alternate way: Can be invoke in parent components lifecycle methods.
• destroy - Alternate way: Can be invoke in parent components lifecycle methods when the slider is taken out of the render tree.
• setPosition - Not positions are calculated from the DOM. So, doesn't make sense.
• breakpoint - Not implemented yet

Progress - Total: 9 Current: 8

Methods

No slick method will be supported because they encourage anti-patterns in react i.e, changing the state of child component via a parent component directly or indirectly using setState. You can add all this by passing props to the Slider component. Detailed examples will be written showing how.
