bootstrap-slider [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/seiyria/bootstrap-slider.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/seiyria/bootstrap-slider) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/seiyria/bootstrap-slider/badges/gpa.svg)](https://codeclimate.com/github/seiyria/bootstrap-slider)
================
Originally began as a loose "fork" of bootstrap-slider found on http://www.eyecon.ro/ by Stefan Petre.

Over time, this project has diverged sigfinicantly from Stefan Petre's version and is now almost completely different.

__Please ensure that you are using this library instead of the Petre version before creating issues in the repository issue tracker!!__

Installation
============
Want to use bower? `bower install seiyria-bootstrap-slider`

Want to use npm? `npm install bootstrap-slider`

Want to get it from a CDN? https://cdnjs.com/libraries/bootstrap-slider

Basic Setup
============
Grab the compiled JS/CSS (minified or non-minified versions) from the [/dist](https://github.com/seiyria/bootstrap-slider/tree/master/dist) directory, load them into your web page, and everything should work!

Remember to load the plugin code after loading the Bootstrap CSS and JQuery.

__JQuery is optional and the plugin can operate with or without it.__

Look below to see an example of how to interact with the non-JQuery interface.

Supported Browsers
========
__We only support modern browsers!!! Basically, anything below IE9 is not compatible with this plugin!__

Examples
========
You can see all of our API examples [here](http://seiyria.github.io/bootstrap-slider/).

Using bootstrap-slider (with JQuery)
======================

### Using `.slider` namespace
Create an input element and call .slider() on it:

```js
// Instantiate a slider
var mySlider = $("input.slider").slider();

// Call a method on the slider
var value = mySlider.slider('getValue');

// For non-getter methods, you can chain together commands
	mySlider
		.slider('setValue', 5)
		.slider('setValue', 7);
```

### Using `.bootstrapSlider` namespace
Create an input element and call .bootstrapSlider() on it:

```js
// Instantiate a slider
var mySlider = $("input.slider").bootstrapSlider();

// Call a method on the slider
var value = mySlider.bootstrapSlider('getValue');

// For non-getter methods, you can chain together commands
	mySlider
		.bootstrapSlider('setValue', 5)
		.bootstrapSlider('setValue', 7);
```

Using bootstrap-slider (via `data-provide`-API)
======================

Create an input element with the `data-provide="slider"` attribute automatically
turns it into a slider. Options can be supplied via `data-slider-` attributes.

```html
<input
	type="text"
	name="somename"
	data-provide="slider"
	data-slider-ticks="[1, 2, 3]"
	data-slider-ticks-labels='["short", "medium", "long"]'
	data-slider-min="1"
	data-slider-max="3"
	data-slider-step="1"
	data-slider-value="3"
	data-slider-tooltip="hide"
>
```

What if there is already a _slider_ plugin bound to the JQuery namespace?
======================

If there is already a JQuery plugin named _slider_ bound to the JQuery namespace, then this plugin will emit a console warning telling you this namespace has already been taken and will encourage you to use the alternate namespace _bootstrapSlider_ instead.

```js
// Instantiate a slider
var mySlider = $("input.slider").bootstrapSlider();

// Call a method on the slider
var value = mySlider.bootstrapSlider('getValue');

// For non-getter methods, you can chain together commands
	mySlider
		.bootstrapSlider('setValue', 5)
		.bootstrapSlider('setValue', 7);
```

Using bootstrap-slider (without JQuery)
======================

Create an input element in the DOM, and then create an instance of Slider, passing it a selector string referencing the input element.

```js
// Instantiate a slider
var mySlider = new Slider("input.slider", {
	// initial options object
});

// Call a method on the slider
var value = mySlider.getValue();

// For non-getter methods, you can chain together commands
mySlider
	.setValue(5)
	.setValue(7);
```

Using as CommonJS module
=======
bootstrap-slider can be loaded as a CommonJS module via [Browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify), [Webpack](https://github.com/webpack/webpack), or some other build tool.

```js
var Slider = require("bootstrap-slider");

var mySlider = new Slider();
```

How do I exclude the optional JQuery dependency from my build?
=======
### Browserify
__Note that the JQuery dependency is considered to be optional.__ For example, to exclude JQuery from being part of your Browserify build, you would call something like the following (assuming `main.js` is requiring bootstrap-slider as a dependency):

```BASH
browserify --im -u jquery main.js > bundle.js
```
### Webpack
To exclude JQuery from your Webpack build, you will have to go into the Webpack config file for your specific project and add something like the following to your `resolve.alias` section:

```js
resolve: {
    alias: {
         "jquery": path.join(__dirname, "./jquery-stub.js");
    }
}
```

Then in your project, you will have to create a stub module for jquery that exports a `null` value. Whenever `require("jquery")` is mentioned in your project, it will load this stubbed module.

```js
// Path: ./jquery-stub.js
module.exports = null;
```

### Other
Please see the documentation for the specific module loader you are using to find out how to exclude dependencies.

Options
=======
Options can be passed either as a data (data-slider-foo) attribute, or as part of an object in the slider call. The only exception here is the formatter argument - that can not be passed as a data- attribute.

How Do I Run This Locally?
======
- Clone the repository
- Run `nvm use` in your Terminal to switch to the proper Node/NPM version
- Once you are on specified Node version, run `npm install`
- Install the Grunt CLI: `npm install grunt-cli -g`
- Type `grunt dev` to launch browser window with Examples page

Grunt Tasks
======
This plugin uses Grunt as its command-line task runner.

To install the Grunt CLI, type `npm install grunt-cli -g`.

To execute any of the commands, type `grunt <task-name>` in your terminal instance.

The following is a list of the commonly-used command line tasks:

* `grunt development`: Generates the `index.html`, compiles the LESS/JS to the `/temp` directory, and launches the index.html in your system's default browser. As changes are made to source code, the
	browser window will auto-refresh.
* `grunt production`: Generates the `/dist` directory with minified and unminified assetts.
* `grunt dev`: Alias for `grunt development`
* `grunt prod`: Alias for `grunt production`
* `grunt build`: Transpiles JavaScript source via Babel and compiles LESS source to CSS to `temp` directory.
* `grunt lint`: Runs JSLint on the JavaScript source code files, SASS-Lint on the SASS source code files, and LESSLint on the LESS source code files.
* `grunt test`: Runs unit tests contained in `/test` directory via Jasmine 2.x.x


Version Bumping and Publishing (Maintainers Only)
=======
To do the following release tasks:
* bump the version
* publish a new version to NPM
* update the `gh-pages` branch
* push a new `dist` bundle to the `master` branch on the remote `origin`
* push new tags to the remote `origin`

Type the following command:

`npm run release <patch|minor|major>`

If you do not specify a version bump type, the script will automatically defer to a patch bump.

Updating Github.io Page
===========================
The Github.io page can be automatically updated by running the following command:

`npm run update-gh-pages`

This command will handle generating the latest versions of the JS/CSS and index.html page, and push them to the `gh-pages` branch.
