require(['./lightgallery.js'], function() {
require(["./lg-zoom.js", "./lg-thumbnail.js"], function(){
$("#lightgallery").lightGallery();
});
});
lightgallery does not force you to use any kind of markup. you can use whatever markup you want. But I suggest you to use the following markup. Here you can find the detailed examples of different kind of markups.
<div id="lightgallery">
<a href="img/img1.jpg">
<img src="img/thumb1.jpg" />
</a>
<a href="img/img2.jpg">
<img src="img/thumb2.jpg" />
</a>
...
</div>
Finally you need to initiate the gallery by adding the following code.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#lightgallery").lightGallery();
});
</script>
