ng-joyride

An angular directive that provides the "joyride" functionality for introducing your websites.Similar to Jquery Joyride but a lot better.

###Demo

See the demo page for a demo and the overview of the features.

Installation

###Bower You can install this package through Bower by using the following command :

bower install ng-joyride --save

Add it to your module.

angular.module('myModule', [
    'ngJoyRide'
])

There is one directive called ng-joy-ride which can be used as an attribute.

<div ng-joy-ride="startJoyRide" config="config" on-finish="onFinish()"  on-skip="onFinish()"></div>

Starting the Joyride

####ng-joy-ride
You can invoke the joyride from anywhere by setting (in this case) startJoyRide to true.The scope variable that you bind to ng-joy-ride is the one that will control the start of the joyride. Once the joyride is complete , the scope variable gets set to false.So on completeion of the joyride startJoyRide will be set to false

---

Configuring the joyride

####config This is the attribute for setting the required steps.In the above example scope.config will have the list of joyride-element that you can pass through the config.
Example

$scope.config = [
        {
                type: "title",
                heading: "Welcome to the NG-Joyride demo",
                text: '<div class="row"><div id="title-text" class="col-md-12"><span class="main-text">Welcome to <strong>Ng Joyride Demo</strong></span><br><span>( This demo will walk you through the features of Ng-Joyride. )</span><br/><br/><span class="small"><em>This can have custom html too !!!</em></span></div></div>'

            },{
                type: "element",
                selector: "#finish",
                heading: "Custom Title",
                text: "The demo finishes.Head over to github to learn more",
                placement: "top",
                scroll: true
            }

        ];

Each element of the array should be a proper joyride element.There are 4 types of joyride-element.

• title - The `title joyride-element' opens a generic styled box shows showing information.You can have custom HTML passed to it as you see above
• element - Boostrap popvers over elements that you pass through the selector.Any jqyery selector will work.
• function - A function call . The function call will be done.Through this you can render more DOM or open a modal etc
• location_change - This will change the location using $location.path incase the joyride needs to be across different pages of your website.

####Elaborate details of each of the Joyride Elements are at the end

Hooks in the joyride

###      Type : location_change

This is required where your intro content spans over multiple pages and you want joyride to be across multiple pages.

$scope.config = [
        {
                type: "location_change",
                path: "/demo"

• path : The path to navigate to should be passed here.The path needs to be a part of the same app.

---

###      Type : function

This is required where your need to run some function for your dom element to get generated.

$scope.config = [
        {
                type: "function",
                fn: openModalForDemo //(can also be a string, which will be evaluated on the scope)
            }
        ];

Immediately after calling the function, the next joyride-element is called.

The function that you will be passing should expect a boolean argument.

For eg : true being passed to the function, will signify creation of dom nodes.Like opening of modal. false being passed the function, will signify removal of these nodes, like closing the modal.

This is important, for the 'previous' button to work .

####Properties

• type : Should be a string function
• fn : pass the actual function reference.Or you can pass a function name as string. If you pass a string then it will be resolved on the scope .
