Getting started

Download this plugin from the Github repository or install it through this command:

$ npm install speeddial --save

Required assets

Import the CSS:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/dist/css/speeddial.css">

Import the Javascript:

<script src="path/to/dist/speeddial.js"></script>

This Javascript library is UMD compliant, so you can consume it even like this:

<script>
	var speeddial = require('speeddial');
</script>

Required markup

<div id="my-speed-dial" class="speed-dial">
	<ul class="speed-dial__list">
		<li>
			<button class="speed-dial__option">B</button>
		</li>
		<li>
			<button class="speed-dial__option">C</button>
		</li>
		<li>
			<button class="speed-dial__option">D</button>
		</li>
	</ul>
	<button class="speed-dial__btn">A</button>
</div>

Start it up

The selector passed as first parameter must be the container's selector and must be unique:

var sd = speeddial('#my-speed-dial'[,options]);

The second optional parameter is a literal object meant to override the default settings:

// Default settings
var options = {

    // The actual speed dial button's default class
    button: '.speed-dial__btn',

    // List of options' default class
    list: '.speed-dial__list',

    // Default direction
	// Available directions are: up, down, left, right
    direction: 'up'
};

Available CSS modifiers

To customize the appearence there are some built-in CSS modifier classes:

/* If you want a blue button */
.speed-dial--blue

/* If you want a pink button */
.speed-dial--pink

/* If you want a small button */
.speed-dial--small

/* If you want to add cool shadows */
.speed-dial--material

/* If you want to toggle the button state when the list of options is open */
.speed-dial--toggle

You can dive into ./scss/speeddial.scss and change the modifiers to meet your needs. Then compile it by running one of the following command:

$ npm run watch-css

$ npm run build-css

Those classes have to be added to the container. That is:

<div id="my-speed-dial" class="speed-dial < PUT MODIFIERS HERE >">
	<ul class="speed-dial__list">
		...
	</ul>
	<button class="speed-dial__btn">A</button>
</div>

API

	var sd = speeddial('#my-speed-dial'[,options]);

	// Returns the container
	sd.getContainer();

	// Returns the button which triggers the list to open/close
	sd.getButton();
