## Beae Swiper API

### Initialize Swiper <a href="#initialize-swiper" id="initialize-swiper"></a>

Now, when we have Swiper's HTML, we need to initialize it using the following function:

new BeaeSwiper(swiperContainer, parameters)- initialize swiper with options

* swiperContainer - HTMLElement or string (with CSS Selector) of swiper container HTML element. Required.
* parameters - object - object with Swiper parameters. Optional.
* **Method returns initialized Swiper instance**

**After** you initialize Swiper it is possible to access to Swiper's instance on its HTMLElement. It is `swiper` property of Swiper's HTML container element:

```javascript
const swiper = this.$el.querySelector('.beae-swiper-container').swiper;

// Now you can use all slider methods like
swiper.slideNext();
```

### Parameters <a href="#parameters" id="parameters"></a>

Let's look on list of all available parameters:

| Name                           | Type                                                 | Default                                                 | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |

### Events <a href="#events" id="events"></a>

Swiper comes with a bunch of useful events you can listen. Events can be assigned in two ways:

1. Using `on` parameter on swiper initialization:

```javascript
const swiper = new window.BeaeSwiper('.beae-swiper-container', {
  // ...
  on: {
    init: function () {
      console.log('swiper initialized');
    },
  },
});
```

2\. Using `on` method after swiper initialization.

```javascript
const swiper = new window.BeaeSwiper('.beae-swiper-container', {
  // ...
});
swiper.on('slideChange', function () {
  console.log('slide changed');
});
```

Please note, that `this` keyword within event handler always points to Swiper instance

#### Parallax <a href="#parallax" id="parallax"></a>

Swiper supports parallax transition effects for swiper/slides nested elements. There are two types of parallax elements supported:

* Direct child elements of `swiper-container`. Parallax effect for such elements will depend on total slider progress. Useful for parallax backgrounds
* Slides child elements. Parallax effect for such elements will depend on slide progress

To enable parallax effects you need to init Swiper with passed `parallax:true` parameter and add one of the following (or mix) attributes to required elements:

* `data-swiper-parallax` - enable transform-translate parallax transition. This attribute may accept:
  * `number` - value in px (as for title, subtitle in example above) to move element depending on progress. In this case such element will be moved on ± this value in px depending on slide position (next or previous)
  * `percentage` - (as for "parallax-bg") to move element depending on progress and on its size. In this case such element will be moved on ± this percentage of its size (width in horizontal direction, and height in vertical direction) depending on slide position (next or previous). So if element has 400px width and you specified data-swiper-parallax="50%" then it will be moved on ± 200px
* `data-swiper-parallax-x` - same but for x-axis direction
* `data-swiper-parallax-y` - same but for y-axis direction
* `data-swiper-parallax-scale` - scale ratio of the parallax element when it is in "inactive" (not on active slide) state
* `data-swiper-parallax-opacity` - opacity of the parallax element when it is in "inactive" (not on active slide) state
* `data-swiper-parallax-duration` - custom transition duration for parallax elements

```markup
<div class="beae-swiper-container">
  <!-- Parallax background element -->
  <div
    class="parallax-bg"
    style="background-image:url(path/to/image.jpg)"
    data-swiper-parallax="-23%"
  ></div>
  <div class="beae-swiper-wrapper">
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <!-- Each slide has parallax title -->
      <div class="title" data-swiper-parallax="-100">Slide 1</div>
      <!-- Parallax subtitle -->
      <div class="subtitle" data-swiper-parallax="-200">Subtitle</div>
      <!-- And parallax text with custom transition duration -->
      <div
        class="text"
        data-swiper-parallax="-300"
        data-swiper-parallax-duration="600"
      >
        <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, ...</p>
      </div>
      <!-- Opacity parallax -->
      <div data-swiper-parallax-opacity="0.5">I will change opacity</div>
      <!-- Scale parallax -->
      <div data-swiper-parallax-scale="0.15">I will change scale</div>
    </div>
    ...
  </div>
</div>
```

**Parallax Parameters**

| Name     | Type                       | Default | Description                                                                        |
| -------- | -------------------------- | ------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| {        |                            |         |                                                                                    |
| enabled  | boolean                    | false   | Enable, if you want to use "parallaxed" elements inside of slider                  |
| }        |                            |         |                                                                                    |

#### Lazy Loading <a href="#lazy-loading" id="lazy-loading"></a>

To enable lazy loading, first of all we need a special layout for images or elements with background in slides:

```markup
<div class="beae-swiper-container">
  <div class="beae-swiper-wrapper">
    <!-- Lazy image -->
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <img data-src="path/to/picture-1.jpg" class="beae-swiper-lazy" />
      <div class="beae-swiper-lazy-preloader"></div>
    </div>

    <!-- Lazy image with srcset -->
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <img
        data-src="path/to/logo-small.png"
        data-srcset="path/to/logo-large.png 2x"
        class="beae-swiper-lazy"
      />
      <div class="beae-swiper-lazy-preloader"></div>
    </div>

    <!-- Element with lazy background image -->
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <div data-background="path/to/picture-2.jpg" class="swiper-lazy">
        <div class="beae-swiper-lazy-preloader"></div>
      </div>
    </div>

    <!-- Lazy background image on slide itself -->
    <div
      data-background="path/to/picture-3.jpg"
      class="beae-swiper-slide swiper-lazy"
    >
      <div class="beae-swiper-lazy-preloader"></div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
```

As you see:

* Each lazy loaded image/element should have additional "swiper-lazy" class
* Lazy image source for \<img> element should be specified in "data-src" attribute instead of "src"
* Lazy image source set for \<img> element should be specified in "data-srcset" attribute instead of "srcset"
* Lazy background image source should be specified in "data-background" attribute

You may also add animated preloader spinner to slide which will be removed automatically after image loaded:

```markup
<div class="beae-swiper-lazy-preloader"></div>
```

Or white one for dark layout:

```
<div class="swiper-lazy-preloader swiper-lazy-preloader-white"></div>
```

After that we need to enable lazy loading on Swiper initialization:

```javascript
const swiper = new BeaeSwiper('.beae-swiper-container', {
  // Disable preloading of all images
  preloadImages: false,
  // Enable lazy loading
  lazy: true,
});
```

If you use `slidesPerView: 'auto'` or `slidesPerView > 1`, then you should also enable `watchSlidesVisibility` and Swiper will load images in currently visible slides

#### Zoom <a href="#zoom" id="zoom"></a>

Swiper supports zoom images functionality (similar to what you see on iOS when browsing single photo) where you can zoom-in image by pinch gesture and or by zoom-in/out by double tap on it. In this case, additional layout is required:

```markup
<div class="beae-swiper-container">
  <div class="beae-swiper-wrapper">
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <div class="beae-swiper-zoom-container">
        <img src="path/to/image1.jpg" />
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <div class="beae-swiper-zoom-container">
        <img src="path/to/image2.jpg" />
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">Plain slide with text</div>
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <!-- Override maxRatio parameter -->
      <div class="beae-swiper-zoom-container" data-swiper-zoom="5">
        <img src="path/to/image1.jpg" />
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
```

* All "zoomable" images should be wrapped with the div with `swiper-zoom-container` class.
* By default it expects to zoom one of the `img`, `picture` or `canvas` element. If you want to make zoom on some other custom element, then just add `swiper-zoom-target` class to this element. For example:

```markup
<div class="beae-swiper-container">
  <div class="beae-swiper-wrapper">
    <div class="beae-swiper-slide">
      <div class="beae-swiper-zoom-container">
        <!-- custom zoomable element -->
        <div
          class="beae-swiper-zoom-target"
          style="background-image: url(...)"
        ></div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
```

* You can override `maxRatio` parameter for specific slides by using `data-swiper-zoom` attribute on zoom container.

#### Virtual Slides <a href="#virtual-slides" id="virtual-slides"></a>

Virtual Slides module allows to keep just required amount of slides in DOM. It is very useful in terms in performance and memory issues if you have a lot of slides, especially slides with heavyweight DOM tree or images.Note that according to Virtual Slides realization it **doesn't work** with loop mode, `slidesPerColumn` more than 1 and `slidesPerView: 'auto'`
