pinny v3.0.1
Mobify Pinny
A mobile-first content fly-in UI plugin.
Dependencies
Installation
Pinny can be installed using NPM:
npm install pinny
Usage with Require.js
We highly recommend using Require.js with Pinny. To use Require, you have to reference Pinny, Pinny's effect modules, and Pinny's dependencies inside your require config file (note: if your project already has those external dependencies, such as deckard, and the versions are compatible, it's recommended that you use the one in your project to reduce duplication):
{
'paths': {
'plugin': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/plugin/dist/plugin.min',
'pinny': 'node_modules/pinny/dist/pinny.min',
'modal-center': 'node_modules/pinny/effect/modal-center',
'sheet-bottom': 'node_modules/pinny/effect/sheet-bottom',
'sheet-left': 'node_modules/pinny/effect/sheet-left',
'sheet-right': 'node_modules/pinny/effect/sheet-right',
'sheet-top': 'node_modules/pinny/effect/sheet-top',
'shade': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/shade/dist/shade.min',
'lockup': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/lockup/dist/lockup.min',
'deckard': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/deckard/dist/deckard.min',
'bouncefix': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/bouncefix.js/dist/bouncefix.min'
'event-polyfill': 'node_modules/pinny/src/js/utils/event-polyfill',
'velocity': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/velocity-animate/velocity.min',
'isChildOf': 'node_modules/pinny/node_modules/selector-utils/src/selector/isChildOf',
}
}
And then require Pinny in as needed:
define([
'$',
'modal-center',
'pinny'
],
function($, modalCenter) {
$('.pinny').pinny({
effect: modalCenter
});
}
);
Usage
Pinny requires very minimal markup. All Pinny needs is a div with your content and it will automatically transform into what we need.
To avoid any unwanted FOUT, decorate the content you will be passing to Pinny with the
hidden
attribute. Thehidden
attribute will be removed when Pinny is initialized.
For accessibility and functional purposes, Pinny will wrap all of your body content in a wrapping container. This could conflict with other plugins that alter your page's markup. If you're seeing issues, try initializing Pinny after your other plugins. If you want to specify your own wrapping container, you can pass Pinny a container
option.
<!-- Include the CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="pinny.min.css">
<!-- Optionally include the Theme file -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="pinny-theme.min.css">
<!-- Optionally include a wrapping container -->
<div id="bodyContent" class="pinny__body-wrapper">
Your specified body content
</div>
<!-- Include the markup -->
<div id="yourPinny" hidden>
Your pinny content
</div>
<!-- Include dependencies -->
<script src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="velocity.min.js"></script>
<script src="plugin.min.js"></script>
<script src="shade.min.js"></script>
<script src="lockup.min.js"></script>
<script src="deckard.min.js"></script>
<script src="bouncefix.min.js"></script>
<!-- Include the effect module you want to use -->
<script src="effect/modal-center.js"></script>
<!-- Include pinny.js -->
<script src="pinny.min.js"></script>
<!-- Construct Pinny -->
<script>$('#yourPinny').pinny()</script>
Initializing the plugin
pinny()
Initializes the pinny.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
effect: modalCenter
});
You can also initialize the Pinny through the use of a data attribute. The attribute takes a value equal to the effect you want to use.
<div id="myPinny" data-pinny="sheet-bottom">
You must pass Pinny an effect for it to work.
pinny(options)
Initialize with options.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
effect: sheetBottom,
container: '#container',
structure: {
header: 'My Pinny Title',
footer: false
},
zIndex: 2,
cssClass: 'my-pinny-class',
coverage: '100%',
easing: 'swing',
duration: 200,
shade: {
color: '#404040'
},
open: noop,
opened: noop,
close: noop,
closed: noop
});
Options
effect
default: {
open: noop,
close: noop
},
Specifies which effect
module Pinny should use when opening. Effect
modules allow you to load specific functionality that tell Pinny how to open and close. Available effect
modules can be found in the dist/effect
folder. Current effect
modules include:
- Modal Center - opens Pinny in the center of the screen
- Sheet Top - slides down from the top of the screen
- Sheet Bottom - slides up from the bottom of the screen
- Sheet Left - slides in from the left of the screen
- Sheet Right - slides in from the right of the screen
$('#myPinny').pinny({
effect: sheetLeft
});
container
default: <body>
Specify the container Pinny will be created within
$('#myPinny').pinny({
container: $('#mainForm') // or container: '#mainForm'
});
appendTo
default: null
Specify the element Pinny will be appended to. By default Pinny will be appended to the lockup container. If you want it to be appended outside the lockup container, specify that element here.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
appendTo: 'body'
});
structure
default: {
header: '',
footer: false
}
Defines the structure to use for Pinny. Specifically, Pinny tries to build its own HTML structure if passed the default options.
If you want to have full control over the HTML of your Pinny, including the header, footer, and content section, set structure: false
. Setting structure: false
will still allow the close
event to be bound to any element that has the pinny__close
class, allowing you to specify the element that should trigger closing your Pinny.
If you are using structure: false
, you will need to structure your HTML to include the following elements (missing any elements will cause Pinny to not function):
<div id="myPinny" class="pinny__wrapper" role="document" hidden>
<div class="pinny__header">
<button type="button" class="pinny__close">close</button>
</div>
<div class="pinny__content pinny--is-scrollable"></div>
<div class="pinny__footer"></div>
</div>
Please see below for available sub-options for header
and footer
.
structure.header
default: ''
Sets the header that Pinny should use in its header bar. Valid values are:
boolean
- specifies no default header generated. If chosen, the user is required to specify the header markup themselves, including the appropriate class,pinny__header
. It will be expected that this will be a part of the element that is used to invoke pinny.string
- specifies the title text used in the header. The header structure will be generated automatically.html|element
- specifies the HTML to be used for the header.
// generates no header
$('#myPinny').pinny({
structure: {
header: false
}
});
or
// generates a default header with the title "My Pinny"
$('#myPinny').pinny({
structure: {
header: 'My Pinny'
}
});
or
$('#myPinny').pinny({
structure: {
header: '<header class="pinny__header">My Pinny<button class="pinny__close">Close</button></header>'
}
});
structure.footer
default: false
Sets the footer that Pinny should use in its footer. Valid values are:
boolean
- specifies no default footer generated. If chosen, the user is required to specify the footer markup themselves, including the appropriate class,pinny__footer
.string
- specifies the title text used in the footer. The footer structure will be generated automatically.html|element
- specifies the HTML to be used for the footer.
// generates no footer
$('#myPinny').pinny({
structure: {
footer: false
}
});
or
// generates a default footer with the contents "My Footer"
$('#myPinny').pinny({
structure: {
footer: 'My Footer'
}
});
or
$('#myPinny').pinny({
structure: {
footer: '<footer class="pinny__footer">My Footer</footer>'
}
});
zIndex
default: 2
Sets the z-index value for Pinny. Use this value if you need to specify a specific stacking order.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
zIndex: 10
});
cssClass
default: ''
Sets a class to apply to the main Pinny parent element for ease of styling.
#('#myPinny').pinny({
cssClass: 'my-pinny-class'
});
coverage
default: 80%
Sets the coverage value. This will allow you to specify that the pinny covers only a portion of the screen.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
coverage: '80%'
});
duration
default: 200
Sets the duration for the animation.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
duration: 600
});
shade
default: {}
Specifies whether pinny should use the shade overlay. You can pass options through to Shade using this property. For more information on available options, see the Shade documentation.
Warning: We currently force Shade's duration to match the one provided to Pinny. This is to limit DOM thrashing as much as possible during Pinny's animation. Pinny hitches a little if we don't do this.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
shade: {
color: '#333333'
}
});
easing
default: swing
Sets the easing for the animation. Pinny takes all of the same easing properties that Velocity.js accepts.
- jQuery UI's easings and CSS3's easings ("ease", "ease-in", "ease-out", and "ease-in-out"), which are pre-packaged into Velocity. A bonus "spring" easing (sampled in the CSS Support pane) is also included.
- CSS3's bezier curves: Pass in a four-item array of bezier points. (Refer to Cubic-Bezier.com for crafing custom bezier curves.)
- Spring physics: Pass a two-item array in the form of tension, friction . A higher tension (default: 600) increases total speed and bounciness. A lower friction (default: 20) increases ending vibration speed.
- Step easing: Pass a one-item array in the form of steps . The animation will jump toward its end values using the specified number of steps.
For more information, check out Velocity's docs on easing.
$('#myPinny').pinny({
easing: 'ease-in-out'
});
