Readme
bigSlide is a teeny tiny (~1kb compressed) jQuery plugin for creating off-screen slide panel navigation.
It will slide the navigation panel as well as any containers given the .push
class (or a class of your choosing in the settings).
Installation
Download the minified or unminified source.
Using npm or Bower?
bigSlide is available as noth a npm and Bower package. Simply run:
npm install bigslide
or
bower install bigSlide
Getting Started
In your document, include a link to toggle the navigation:
<a href="#menu" class="menu-link">☰</a>
And your nav menu:
<nav id="menu" class="panel" role="navigation">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#">The Ballad of El Goodo</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Thirteen</a></li>
<li><a href="#">September Gurls</a></li>
<li><a href="#">What's Going Ahn</a></li>
</ul>
</nav>
Reference jQuery and the big-slide.js file:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.big-slide.js"></script>
To initialize the plugin,:
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.menu-link').bigSlide();
});
</script>
Options
| Variable | Default Value | Description |
| ----------- |:-------------:| -----------------:|
| menu | ('#menu') | The attribute ID of the navigation menu |
| push | ('.push') | The class given to additional elements to 'push' when the nav is toggled |
| side | left | The side of the navigation menu (either 'right' or 'left') |
| menuWidth | 15.6em | The width of the navigation menu |
| state | closed | The default state of the navigation menu (either 'closed' or 'open') |
| saveState | false | Set this to true
to allow the navigation menu to remember it's previous state when navigating |
| speed | 300 | The speed (in milliseconds) of the navigation menu |
| easyClose | false | Set this to true
to allow users to toggle the menu closed with any click |
| activeBtn | active | This class is added to the menu button when it is open. By default the class is .active
|
| semiOpenStatus | false | Set this to true
to collapse the menu instead of closing it seeing only part of it |
| semiOpenScreenWidth | 480 | The minimum necessary screen width in pixels to allow the semiOpenStatus |
| beforeOpen | function() {} | A method called before the trigger open event |
| afterOpen | function() {} | A method called after the trigger open event |
| beforeClose | function() {} | A method called before the trigger close event |
| afterClose | function() {} | A method called after the trigger close event |
Other notes
Although bigSlide will automatically position your menu off screen, I recommend adding the following to your CSS to prevent a flash of the menu on load:
.panel {
position: fixed;
left: -15.625em; /*right or left and the width of your navigation panel*/
width: 15.625em; /*should match the above value*/
}
Additionally, any elements that use the .push
class should be relatively positioned:
.wrap {
position: relative;
}
If you want to shrink the main container div instead of only pushing it, which will allow you to work in the application with the navbar open, apply the .shrink
class in place of .push
.
