Where can I get or when should we expect to see updated and complete documentation for the Carousel component ?

I would like to see the following:

1) How to optimize the component for performance under various conditions (Photos, RSS feeds, HTML etc etc)

2) How to manipulate the component with code.

3) A working example.

Keep up the great work. Thanks

Hello! Thanks, we'll add documentation and I'll update this post after it's done.

Thank you for your kind attention to this detail. I look forward to the documentation.

In the mean time, here is what I am looking to do:

1) Allow the user to take multiple pictures and display the pictures in the Carousel.

2) Once the user is done taking the pictures, I want them to be able to click a button and upload the pictures from the Carousel to the database.

Any suggestion ?

Thanks for you help in advance.

Hello,

Simple description about functionality of carousel component you can find here.

Draft of technical documentation you can find here.

if you still have questions after reading documentation please let me know.

I looked at the documents. The Simple description is too simple and the technical draft is 3 months old.

Do you not have the latest documents ?

You can believe me, the code of carousel is older then this document. And that document describe current version of carousel witch used in Appery.io.

[quote:]1) Allow the user to take multiple pictures and display the pictures in the Carousel. [/quote] Do you want to show multiple pictures on one frame of carousel? If so, then you need to choose item type as HTML and create each item with list of images. Else, current implementation already can create mapping to display list of images from REST service.
[quote:]2) Once the user is done taking the pictures, I want them to be able to click a button and upload the pictures from the Carousel to the database. [/quote]It's not usual behavior for carousel, so it doesn't implement. You need to develop that functionality by self. And again, each frame can contain any html-block, so you can place any controls and create any action.

Ok I have read the document several time, but I am still unclear. I have a few questions ?

How do I add images through Javascript ?

How do I delete images through Javascript ?

If I have a HTML Type frame, how do I duplicate the frame to load another image into the newly created frame ?

Thanks for your help.

Hello! We'll post some code sample, working on it...
