A carousel component, with support for Swipe, Scroll and Snap Points.
Installing
$ npm install --save @farfetch/react-carousel
...and include it in your project
import { Carousel } from '@farfetch/react-carousel';
We also include css styles out-of-the-box, to use them just import the css by doing the following:
import '@farfetch/react-carousel/styles.css'
If you want to style the carousel by yourself, ignore this step.

Concepts
The Carousel is fully operated by Context
, this gives the flexibility to extend it without having to change the core, as all the state of the Carousel
is already exposed in the context.
To create a new carousel, you basically need two things: The wrapper (Carousel
), a movement engine (one of the sliders) and optional navigation components.
The base structure would look like this:
import { Carousel, SwipeSlider, Bullets } from '@farfetch/react-carousel';
/* The mandatory wrapper of the Carousel */
<Carousel>
/* One of the available movement engines */
<SwipeSlider>
<div>Item 1</div>
<div>Item 2</div>
<div>Item 3</div>
<div>Item 4</div>
<div>Item 5</div>
</SwipeSlider>
/* Optional navigation component */
<Bullets />
</Carousel>
You have full control of what you can put inside the Carousel
wrapper, including divs and others components.
The wrapper is nothing more than a <div>
and the instance of the CarouselProvider
, so all children already have access to the Context by default.
Architecture overview
Usage examples
In the examples below we demonstrate the flexibility of the components, passing all the available props, just for demonstration purposes.
Except for the movement engines, you can mix all the examples to have the more adequate Carousel for your needs.
SwipeSlider
import { Carousel, SwipeSlider } from '@farfetch/react-carousel';
const handleAfterChange = (e) => {
console.log(e.index);
console.log(e.dir);

Support for navigation components
The ScrollSlider works with the Arrow

are NOT supported. Other Carousel
props not supported include itemsToShow
, and isInfinite
.

It also has support for Bullets
.
SnapSlider
A slider using native scroll navigation, with snap points, on browsers with support.
It fallback to the SwipeSlider
for browser with no support.
NOTE: The Snap Points support can be laggy on Android and RTL mobile browsers. For those cases, prefer the SwipeSlider
.

Support for navigation components
The ScrollSlider doesn't work with the Arrow
component, due to snap point support.
It supports the Bullets
component.
Creating your own component
As the Carousel state is managed by a context, we can easily create new components extending the carousel logic.
Example:
import { CarouselContext } from '@farfetch/react-carousel';
const Pagination = (props) => {
<CarouselContext.Consumer>
{ ({ activeItem, itemsLength }) => <div>{ activeItem } of { itemsLength } items</div> }
</CarouselContext.Consumer>
}
export default Pagination;
You can easily consume any information from the CarouselContext.Consumer
and also even create a new movement engine with a custom animation, for example, as all the functions are already exposed in the Context
.
React compatibility
