A simple image-viewer/gallery component for NativeScript.
| iOS | Android |
|---|---|
| NYTPhotoViewer | ImageGallery |
Since the plugin is based on two different libraries for two different platforms their features are also somewhat diferent:
"NYTPhotoViewer" (iOS) is a slideshow and image viewer that includes double-tap to zoom, captions, support for multiple images, interactive flick to dismiss, animated zooming presentation, and more.
"ImageGallery" (Android) is a gallery used to host an array of external images (array of urls). It supports multiple images, double-tap to zoom and a gallery view.
Run npm i nativescript-photoviewer in your ROOT directory of your project.
Captions only available on iOS. Android only supports array of string urls as datasource.
The usage is very simple. Require "nativescript-photoviewer" module and create a instance of it. Call the showViewer(array) function to present the photoViewer.
The showViewer() function accept a singe parameter, an array. The array can contain one, or a mixture, of the following types:
- String URLs that point to external images (iOS & Android)
- Custom defined objects that contain image-data (image/imageURL, title, summary, credit) (iOS only)
- Objects that conform to the
NYTPhotoprotocol (see the cocoapod documentation for more info - very similar to the above option) (iOS only)
When using the second option, properties that one can use are defined below in the second example. The image conforms to the UIImage object, while the imageURL is a string containing the URL of the image.
If imageURL is set, then image is ignored. You can also customize fontFamily, fontSize and color of the caption texts. FontFamily applies to all captions, size and color are caption-specific.
// Require the module
var PhotoViewer = require("nativescript-photoviewer");
photoViewer = new PhotoViewer();
// Caption font-style settings (optional - iOS only)
photoViewer.fontFamily = "Avenir-Roman";
photoViewer.titleFontSize = 20;
photoViewer.summaryFontSize = 16;
photoViewer.creditFontSize = 14;
photoViewer.titleColor = UIColor.whiteColor();
photoViewer.summaryColor = UIColor.brownColor();
photoViewer.creditColor = UIColor.orangeColor();
// Image from object (iOS only)
var testImage1 = {
imageURL: "https://somepage.com/image01.jpg",
title: "Image 1 title",
summary: "Image 1 summary",
credit: "Telerik"
};
var testImage2 = {
imageURL: "https://somepage.com/image01.jpg",
title: "Image 2 title",
summary: "Image 2 summary",
credit: "Telerik"
};
//Image from URLs (Android & iOS)
var imageFromURL1 = "https://somepage.com/image01.jpg";
var imageFromURL2 = "https://somepage.com/image02.jpg";
// Add to array and pass to showViewer
var myImages = [testImage1, testImage2, imageFromURL1, imageFromURL2];
photoViewer.showViewer(myImages);
