Mobile first, flat style JavaScript Page Flip Library. Cross browser support, and works on most desktop browsers.
This library creates a page folding effect using a flat visual style. No curling effects are used, and shadows are kept to a minimum.
First import the CSS and JS files from the '/dist' directory into your project.
The easiest way to get started is by calling flip.basic(element). It expects the provided element to have a single child containing all the pages in the book, as in the example below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, user-scalable=no">
<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' media='all' href='flip.css'>
</head>
<body>
<div id="book" class="flip-book">
<div>
<div><h1>Title Page</h1></div>
<div><h2>Page Two Content</h2></div>
<div>Page Three Content</div>
<div>Page Four Content</div>
<div>Page Fiv Content</div>
</div>
</div>
<script type='text/javascript' src='flip-v1.0.0.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
window.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', function(){
flip.basic( 'book' );
}, true );
</script>
</body>
</html>
Advanced usage example coming soon.
Creates a flip book using the contents of the provided element. Expects provided element to have a single child element that contains all the pages. This is wrapper, and the easiest way to build a book. No need to look at the rest of the API if this works for you.
Creates a flip book using the contents of the provided element. Expects provided element to have a single child element that contains all the pages. firstPage is an object created by flip.page.create().
Creates a flip book using the contents of the provided element. Expects provided element to have a single child element that contains all the pages.
Returns the height of the page stack
Push a new page immediately onto the book, and transition it into view.
Go back one page and pop the current page off the stack.
Close the book and return to the first page, removing all other pages from stack.
Creates a page for the book with the provided content element. The optional page event listener parameter expects an object with functions named the following (all optional):
```
{
onObscure: function(){},
onStay: function(){},
onShowComplete: function(index){}
}
```
Making changes to page content during a transition is not handled very well. The library creates a shadow copy of the original HTML for use while flipping. Modifying the page during transit can result in a partial rendering. It's best to modify pages after flipping is complete. You can register a callback for the end of various animation events with the API.
You can build the library yourself using npm and grunt. Clone the repo, then run the grunt command from the root directory. It will produce output in the /dist/ folder.
