LobiCard

jQuery plugin for bootstrap 4 cards. It extends cards with several common and useful functions.

This is a fork of Lobipanel, migrating the library from Bootstrap 3 to Bootstrap 4.

Differences to LobiPanel

  • Switched Less to SASS, giving compatibility with Bootstrap 4
  • Glyphicons has been dropped from Bootstrap, LobiCard now uses Font Awesome by default
  • Clean up usage of "", now more consistently uses ''
  • Improve support for use through NPM as well as Bower. Note: To make this more compatible in NPM I've changed a dependency from 'jquery-ui-touch-punch-improved' to 'jquery-ui-touch-punch'...
  • Updated the version of JQuery and JQuery UI
  • Added JS/HTML hinting and beautification configs
  • Less working files committed to Git
  • Updated lib folder
  • Added some margin between control icons
  • Fix an issue using jquery's load(), which now assumes POST if the params is an object - params is now a string by default
  • Tooltip destroy issue resolves as in Bootstrap 4 it is now dispose.
  • When editing a card's title the contained HTML is retained. Previous behaviour was to allow a user to edit the text only and does a direct replacement, now the HTML is retrieved.

Known issues

Since Bootstrap 4 has not been released yet there are still some issues that may well be related to other known issues. If in doubt, check Bootstrap's Issue tracker. Here are some I've found so far:

Uncaught Error: Tooltip is transitioning

This appears to be an issue in Bootstrap 4, e.g. #21607. There is a fix for this that will become available with the first beta of Bootstrap 4. See PR#21743 for more information. Until then #21607 does give some workarounds, or just survive with the error until Bootstrap 4 Beta is released.

Features

  • Sort, drag, expand, resize, minimize bootstrap cards
  • Specify url and load content in card from this url
  • Change the name of the card
  • Customize action icons and action tooltips
  • Works for nested cards
  • HTML5 localStorage support
    • Save card state: (pinned, unpinned, collapsed, fullscreen, minimized) and apply it on page load
    • Save card position among siblings and apply on next time

Dependencies

LobiCard is depended on jQuery, jQuery UI and Bootstrap 4.

Compiling

The package now uses sass rather than less. So, if you are developing on Windows you will need to install Ruby making sure to add the executable to your path, and then install SASS by opening a new command window and executing gem install sass.

Installation

Below demonstrates installation with bower, but npm can be used too by simply changing the directory bower_components to node_modules.
