A flexible lightbox component for displaying images in a React project.

DEMO

Features

• Keyboard shortcuts (with rate limiting)
• Image Zoom
• Flexible rendering using src values assigned on the fly
• Image preloading for smoother viewing
• Mobile friendly, with pinch to zoom and swipe (Thanks, @webcarrot!)
• No external CSS

Example

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import Lightbox from 'react-image-lightbox';
import 'react-image-lightbox/style.css'; // This only needs to be imported once in your app

const images = [
  '//placekitten.com/1500/500',
  '//placekitten.com/4000/3000',
  '//placekitten.com/800/1200',
  '//placekitten.com/1500/1500',
];

export default class LightboxExample extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);

    this.state = {
      photoIndex: 0,
      isOpen: false,
    };
  }

  render() {
    const { photoIndex, isOpen } = this.state;

    return (
      <div>
        <button type="button" onClick={() => this.setState({ isOpen: true })}>
          Open Lightbox
        </button>

        {isOpen && (
          <Lightbox
            mainSrc={images[photoIndex]}
            nextSrc={images[(photoIndex + 1) % images.length]}
            prevSrc={images[(photoIndex + images.length - 1) % images.length]}
            onCloseRequest={() => this.setState({ isOpen: false })}
            onMovePrevRequest={() =>
              this.setState({
                photoIndex: (photoIndex + images.length - 1) % images.length,
              })
            }
            onMoveNextRequest={() =>
              this.setState({
                photoIndex: (photoIndex + 1) % images.length,
              })
            }
          />
        )}
      </div>
    );
  }
}

Property	Type	Description
mainSrc (required)	string	Main display image url
prevSrc	string	Previous display image url (displayed to the left). If left undefined, onMovePrevRequest will not be called, and the button not displayed
nextSrc	string	Next display image url (displayed to the right). If left undefined, onMoveNextRequest will not be called, and the button not displayed
mainSrcThumbnail	string	Thumbnail image url corresponding to props.mainSrc. Displayed as a placeholder while the full-sized image loads.
prevSrcThumbnail	string	Thumbnail image url corresponding to props.prevSrc. Displayed as a placeholder while the full-sized image loads.
nextSrcThumbnail	string	Thumbnail image url corresponding to props.nextSrc. Displayed as a placeholder while the full-sized image loads.
onCloseRequest (required)	func	Close window event. Should change the parent state such that the lightbox is not rendered
onMovePrevRequest	func	Move to previous image event. Should change the parent state such that props.prevSrc becomes props.mainSrc, props.mainSrc becomes props.nextSrc, etc.
onMoveNextRequest	func	Move to next image event. Should change the parent state such that props.nextSrc becomes props.mainSrc, props.mainSrc becomes props.prevSrc, etc.
onImageLoad	func	Called when an image loads. (imageSrc: string, srcType: string, image: object): void
onImageLoadError	func	Called when an image fails to load. (imageSrc: string, srcType: string, errorEvent: object): void
imageLoadErrorMessage	node	What is rendered in place of an image if it fails to load. Centered in the lightbox viewport. Defaults to the string "This image failed to load".
