    <slick infinite=true slides-to-show=3 slides-to-scroll=3>
    ...
    </slick>
    
    <slick 
        settings="slickConfig" ng-if="numberLoaded">
    </slick>

Attributes & Event

settings: optional Object containing any of the slick options. Consult here.

enabled should slick be enabled or not. Default to true. Example below
method optional containing slick method. discussed below in detail
event optional containing slick event

$scope.slickConfig = {
    enabled: true,
    autoplay: true,
    draggable: false,  
    autoplaySpeed: 3000,
    method: {},
    event: {
        beforeChange: function (event, slick, currentSlide, nextSlide) {
        },
        afterChange: function (event, slick, currentSlide, nextSlide) {
        }
    }
};

Enable/disable slick

Slick can be easily switched on and off by using enabled settings flag.

    $scope.slickConfig = {
        enabled: true,
    }
    $scope.toggleSlick = function() {
      $scope.slickConfig.enabled = !$scope.slickConfig.enabled;
    }

    <slick settings="slickConfig">
     ...
    </slick>
    <button ng-click="toggleSlick()">Toggle</button>

Method

All the functions in the plugin are exposed through a control attribute.
To utilize this architecture, and have two-way data-binding, define an empty control handle on scope:

    $scope.slickConfig = {
        method: {}
    }

Pass it as the value to control attribute. Now, you can call any plugin methods as shown in the example.

<button ng-click="slickConfig.method.slickGoTo(2)">slickGoTo(2)</button>
<button ng-click="slickConfig.method.slickPrev()">slickPrev()</button>
<button ng-click="slickConfig.method.slickNext()">slickNext()</button>
<button ng-click='slickConfig.method.slickAdd("<div>New</div>")'>slickAdd()</button>
<button ng-click='slickConfig.method.slickRemove(3)'>slickRemove(3)</button>
<button ng-click='slickConfig.method.slickPlay()'>slickPlay()</button>
<button ng-click='slickConfig.method.slickPause()'>slickPause()</button>

Slide data

For change slide content, you have to set ng-if to destroy and init it

controller:

    $scope.number = [{label: 1}, {label: 2}, {label: 3}, {label: 4}, {label: 5}, {label: 6}, {label: 7}, {label: 8}];
    $scope.numberLoaded = true;
    $scope.numberUpdate = function(){
        $scope.numberLoaded = false; // disable slick
        
        //number update
        
        $scope.numberLoaded = true; // enable slick
    };

html:

    <script type="text/ng-template" id="tpl.html">
        <h3>{{ i.label }}</h3>
    </script>
    
    <slick ng-if="numberLoaded">
        <div ng-repeat="i in number">
            <div class="" ng-include="'tpl.html'"></div>
        </div>
    </slick>

Global config

  config(['slickCarouselConfig', function (slickCarouselConfig) {
      slickCarouselConfig.dots = true;
      slickCarouselConfig.autoplay = false;
  }])

FAQ

Q: After change data, could i keep the current slide index? A: For this directive, this will destroy and init slick when updating data. You could get current index by event. example:

    $scope.currentIndex = 0;
    $scope.slickConfig = {
        event: {
            afterChange: function (event, slick, currentSlide, nextSlide) {
              $scope.currentIndex = currentSlide; // save current index each time
            }
            init: function (event, slick) {
              slick.slickGoTo($scope.currentIndex); // slide to correct index when init
            }
        }
    };

You need be running a server to see the samples:

Go to your terminal and run:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer
