Installation

You can download full package and check the demo folder for implementation example or you can use bower:

bower install material-cards 

Demo files require Font Awesome

Usage

Material Cards must be used in conjunction with jQuery.

You can choose to use it as a jQuery plugin or not. Demos for both usages are available in the demos folder. Using it as a jQuery plugin easies the management of options, methods and events for full customization.

Inside the js/ folder you can find the two files: jquery.material-cards.js and jquery.material-cards.min.js

Init jQuery Material Card

$('.material-card').materialCard(options);

Options

options = {     icon_close	   : 'fa-arrow-left', //string     icon_open	   : 'fa-bars',       //string     icon_spin	   : 'fa-spin-fast',  //string     card_activator : 'click'          //string: click or hover });

The icons are from Font Awesome, fa-spin-fast is similar to fa-spin but spin faster.

The default card_activator is the click event on button card, but you can also use hover (this option remove the button).

Methods

toggle: change selected material card state

$('.material-card').materialCard('toggle');

open: open selected material card

$('.material-card:eq(1)').materialCard('open');

close: close selected material card

$('.material-card:eq(2)').materialCard('close');

isOpen: check material card status, return true or false

if($('.material-card:eq(3)').materialCard('isOpen') === true) { 	// do something }

Events

• show.material-card: triggered immediately when the open instance method is called
• shown.material-card: triggered when the card becomes visible to the user (will wait the end of the CSS transitions)
• hide.material-card: triggered immediately when the close instance method is called
• hidden.material-card: triggered when the card has become hidden to the user (will wait for end of CSS transitions)

Examples

$('.material-card').on('shown.material-card', function (event) {     console.log(event.type, event.namespace, $(this));     //that return     //shown material-card [article.material-card...] });

var fullCardEvent = 'shown.material-card show.material-card hide.material-cards hidden.material-cards'; $('.material-cards').on(fullCardEvent, function (event) { 	//   do something });
