Cycle2 jQuery slide show for Yii 2.0

Latest Stable Version Total Downloads License

yii2-cycle2 is a widget to render the excellent Cycle2 jQuery slideshow widget in the Yii 2.0 PHP Framework. Like a GridView, its data is fed from an ActiveDataProvider (or, more generally, from a class derived from BaseDataProvider).

A demonstration of Yii2-cycle2 is here.

Installation

Install yii2-cycle2 with Composer. Either add the following to the require section of your composer.json file:

"sjaakp/yii2-cycle2": "*"

Or run:

composer require sjaakp/yii2-cycle2 "*"

You can manually install yii2-cycle2 by downloading the source in ZIP-format.

Using yii2-cycle2

yii2-cycle2 implements a widget of the class Cycle. It gets its data from an ActiveDataProvider, ArrayDataProvider, or other class derived from BaseDataProvider Using it is not unlike using a GridView. For instance, in the Controller you might have something like:

<?php
// ...
public function actionPie()	{
	$dataProvider = new ActiveDataProvider([
		'query' => NicePlace::find(),
	    'pagination' => false
	]);
	
	return $this->render('cycle', [
		'dataProvider' => $dataProvider
	]);
}
// ...
?>

To render a Cycle in the View we could use:

<?php
use sjaakp\cycle\Cycle;
?>
...
<?= Cycle::widget([
    'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
	'imgAttribute' => 'photo',
    'captionAttributes' => [
        'name',
        'country'
    ],
    'overlayAttributes' => [
        'description'
    ],
    'options' => [
        'speed' => 2000
    ],
]) ?>
...

Options

Cycle has the following options:

dataProvider

The data provider for the widget. This property is required. In most cases, it will be an ActiveDataProvider or an ArrayDataProvider.

imgAttribute

Image attribute, required.

  • string: name of the attribute that holds the source URL for the slide image. Note that this could be a virtual attribute.
  • callable: a callable with signature function($model, $widget) that returns the source URL for the slide image.

urlAttribute

Link URL attribute, optional.

  • null: the slides are not embedded in links (default).
  • string: name of the attribute that holds the link URL for the slide. Note that this could be a virtual attribute.
  • callable: a callable with signature function($model, $widget) that returns the link URL for the slide.

tooltipAttribute

Tooltip attribute, optional.

  • null: the slides don't have tooltips (default).
  • string: name of the attribute that holds the text or HTML for the slide tooltip. Note that this could be a virtual attribute.
  • callable: a callable with signature function($model, $widget) that returns the text or HTML for the slide tooltip.

captionAttributes, overlayAttributes

The attributes displayed in the caption or the overlay. See the Cycle2 documentation.

Members can be:

  • string name of the attribute holding the text or HTML for the caption or overlay element;
  • <key> => <value> where <key> is a name and <value> is
    • the name of the attribute;
    • or a callable with the signature function($model, $widget) returning the text or HTML.

The attribute values will be rendered inside Cycle's caption or overlay div, each inside its own span element with class "slide-<key>".

content

Extra elements in the Cycle container, apart from the slides, caption, and overlay. Could be filled with elements like '<div class="cycle-pager"></div>' (see: Cycle2 pagers).

plugins

Plugins for the Cycle2 jQuery widget. Notice that yii2-cycle2 attempts to load the required plugins automatically.

options

Client options for the underlying Cycle2 jQuery widget. Notice that the option names must be camelCased.

htmlOptions

HTML options of the Cycle container. Use this if you want to explicitly set the ID.

slideOptions

HTML options for each slide. One use would be to set this to: [ 'target' => '_blank' ]
