Nifty.js - v0.1

A JQuery plugin to create modal window effects based on codrops

What is it

Nifty.js is a simply jquery library designed to create modals with stunning css animations. This library and animations are based on the amazing work from codrops. Nifty.js is very simple to the Bootstrap Modal JS system.

Install

Nifty.js requires jQuery (for now, will remove jQuery dependencies later). Other then that, simply add the nifty.js (minified coming) to your project wherever you place your js

Usage

Like mentioned above, Nifty.js works similar to Bootstrap Modal JS

Button Trigger

Using data-trigger attributes and data-target on a button or anchor.

  <button data-trigger='modal' data-target='#modalID'>Show Modal</button>

Show Modal

  $("#modalID").nifty("show")

Hide Modal

  $("#modalID").nifty("hide")

Events

show.nifty.modal - This event is fired immediately when the show method is called or when a button is clicked with a data-trigger attribute.
shown.nifty.modal - This event is fired after the modal is finished showing. This waits for all the animations/transitions to finish.
hide.nifty.modal - This event is fired immediately when the hide method is called, or when the close button on a modal is clicked.
hidden.nifty.modal - This event is fired when the modal is finished being hidden and all animations/transitions are complete.

Structure

The structure of the modal HTML is specific

<div class="nifty-modal [animation-class]" id="modal-1">
	<div class="md-content">
		<div class='md-title'>
			<h3>Modal Dialog</h3>
		</div>
		<div class='md-body'>
			<p>This is a modal window. You can do the following things with it:</p>
			<ul>
				<li><strong>Read:</strong> Modal windows will probably tell you something important so don't forget to read what it says.</li>
				<li><strong>Look:</strong> modal windows enjoy a certain kind of attention; just look at it and appreciate its presence.</li>
				<li><strong>Close:</strong> click on the button below to close the modal.</li>
			</ul>
			<button class="btn btn-primary md-close">Close me!</button>
		</div>
	</div>
</div>

An addition div is required (preferably at the bottom) to render the div into.

  <div class='md-overlay'></div>
