Bring Bootstrap's components to life with custom plugins for jQuery and Ender
Integrating javascript with the Bootstrap library is super easy. Here we go over the basics and provide you with some awesome plugins to get you started!
Bring some of Bootstrap's primary components to life with new custom plugins that work with jQuery and Ender. We encourage you to extend and modify them to fit your specific development needs.
| File | Description |
|---|---|
| bootstrap-modal.js | Our Modal plugin is a super slim take on the traditional modal js plugin! We took special care to include only the bare functionality that we require at twitter. |
| bootstrap-alerts.js | The alert plugin is a super tiny class for adding close functionality to alerts. |
| bootstrap-dropdown.js | This plugin is for adding dropdown interaction to the bootstrap navbar or tabbed navigations. |
| bootstrap-scrollspy.js | The ScrollSpy plugin is for adding an auto updating nav based on scroll position to the bootstrap navbar. |
| bootstrap-tabs.js | This plugin adds quick, dynamic tab and pill functionality for cycling through local content. |
| bootstrap-twipsy.js | Based on the excellent jQuery.tipsy plugin written by Jason Frame; twipsy is an updated version, which doesn't rely on images, uses css3 for animations, and data-attributes for local title storage! |
| bootstrap-popover.js | The popover plugin provides a simple interface for adding popovers to your application. It extends the boostrap-twipsy.js plugin, so be sure to grab that file as well when including popovers in your project! |
Nope! Bootstrap is designed first and foremost to be a CSS library. This javascript provides a basic interactive layer on top of the included styles.
However, for those who do need javascript, we've provided the plugins above to help you understand how to integrate Bootstrap with javascript and to give you a quick, lightweight option for the basic functionality right away.
For more information and to see some live demos, please refer to our plugin documentation page.
Our Modal plugin is a super slim take on the traditional modal js plugin, taking special care to include only the bare functionality that we require here at twitter.
Download$('#my-modal').modal(options)
| Name | type | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| backdrop | boolean | true | Includes a modal-backdrop element |
| keyboard | boolean | true | Closes the modal when escape key is pressed |
| show | boolean | true | Opens modal on class initialization |
You can activate modals on your page easily without having to write a single line of javascript. Just give an element a data-controls-modal attribute which corresponds to a modal element id, and when clicked, it will launch your modal. To add modal options, just include them as data attributes.
<a class="btn" data-controls-modal="my-modal" data-backdrop="true" >Launch Modal</a>
Notice If you want your modal to animate in and out, just add a .fade class to the .modal element (refer to the demo to see this in action).
Activates your content as a modal. Accepts an optional options object.
$('#my-modal').modal({
keyboard: false
})
Manually toggles a modal.
$('#my-modal').modal('toggle')
Manually opens a modal.
$('#my-modal').modal('show')
Manually hides a modal.
$('#my-modal').modal('hide')
Bootstrap's modal class exposes a few events for hooking into modal functionality.
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| show | This event fires immediately when the show instance method is called. |
| shown | This event is fired when the modal has been made visible to the user (will wait for css transitions to complete). |
| hide | This event is fired immediately when the hide instance method has been called. |
| hidden | This event is fired when the modal has finished being hidden from the user (will wait for css transitions to complete). |
$('#my-modal').bind('hidden', function () {
// do something ...
})
This plugin is for adding dropdown interaction to the Bootstrap navbar or tabbed navigations.
Download$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown()
To quickly add dropdown functionality to any element just add data-toggle="dropdown". Any valid bootstrap dropdown will automatically be activated.
<ul class="tabs">
<li class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li class="dropdown">
<a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">Dropdown</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li><a href="#">Secondary link</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li><a href="#">Another link</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
A programatic api for activating menus for a given navbar or tabbed navigation.
This plugin is for adding the scrollspy (auto updating nav) interaction to the bootstrap navbar.
Download$('#navbar').dropdown()
To easily add scrollspy behavior to your topbar navigation, just add data-spy="scroll" to the element you want to spy on (most typically this would be the body).
<body data-spy="scroll" >...</body>
Notice Navbar anchor tags must have resolvable id targets. For example, a <a href="#home">home</a> must correspond to something in the dom like <div id="home"></div>.
Scroll the area below and watch the navigation update. The dropdown sub items will be highlighted as well. Try it!
