Options

• activeIndex : Number, default 0 - Set carousel at the specified position.

• animationDuration: Number, default 400 - Set duration of animation.

• animationType: String(slide, fadeout), default slide - Set type of animation.

• autoHeight: Boolean, default false - Set auto height mode.

• disableButtonsControls: Boolean, default false - Disable buttons controls.

• disableDotsControls: Boolean, default false - Disable dots controls.

• disableSlideInfo: Boolean, default true - Disable information about current slide.

• infinite: Boolean, default false - Set infinite mode.

• innerWidth: Number, default 0 - Set a static value for a breakpoint(key) of the "responsive" property. For example, if you can't use 'window.innerWidth' during SSR.

• items: Array, default undefined - Set gallery items, preferable to use this property instead of children.

• keyboardNavigation: Boolean, default false - Enable keyboard navigation

  • ArrowLeft - go to the prev slide
  • ArrowRight - go to the next slide
  • Space - run/stop autoplay mode if autoPlay property is equal true

  • itemsFit: one of (contain | fill | undefined) - defines, how item should fill the container according slide's width. Default: fill.

    If contain is specified, the gallery will use the value from the items property to determine the width of the element for each slide and fill in the empty space as needed.

        {
          0: {
              items: 1,
          },
          1024: {
              items: 3,
              itemsFit: 'contain',
          }
        }

• onSlideChange(e: EventObject): Function - Fired before the event object changes.

• onSlideChanged(e: EventObject): Function - Fired after the event object was changed.

• renderSlideInfo(e: SlideInfo): Rendering function - create a custom component.

• renderDotsItem(e: DotsItem): Rendering function - create a custom component.

• renderPrevButton({ isDisabled }): Rendering function - create a custom component.

• renderNextButton({ isDisabled }): Rendering function - create a custom component.

• renderPlayPauseButton({ isPlaying }): Rendering function - create a custom component.
