We haven’t built our HTML yet – which contains the actual handebars template. This method is taking the data that is returned from our ajax promise above, and compiling it with handlbars. We’re adding private variables inside our class so we can use it all over our code. We’re using the “ Revealing Module” pattern so we can have methods that are public and private, as well as we keep our logic real tidy. You can place it inside any SharePoint document library – and simply map to it using Windows Explorer so you can write to it just like you would as if it was a local file. The JavascriptĬreate a Javasript file and name it sp-gallery.js. Now we can continue and pull our images in the front end. Upload some images to your newly created library. In the Width and Height text boxes, enter the width and height, in pixels, of the rendition, and then choose Save. On the New Image Rendition page, in the Name box, enter a name for the rendition.

On the Image Renditions page, choose Add new item. Note that for this demo I’m using SharePoint 2010 – I believe in newer versions you have to “ Add an App” > “ Photo Library“.īe sure to note the name of your library: You can use the out of the box renditions or choose Image Renditions to create a new one. In SharePoint, you do this by going to “View All Site Content” and adding a new Picture Library. Setup the Galleryįirst we need to make sure we have a gallery to connect to.

Note that I will not go over the entire code base in this tutorial – just the meat of the logic. Ready to get started? Roll up your sleeves and let’s write some code.
#SHAREPOINT IMAGE CAROUSEL HOW TO#
With this knowledge, you will gain good understanding on how to select items with SharePoint’s REST API, which I happen to have a post on. Re: Image Gallery with Carousel and auto-cycle through images Does anyone have a release date for this please I need to use an automated image carousel on my company intranet homepage and its a big feature of the page and if its not automated it won't look good. Let’s build a photo gallery using SharePoint Picture library as the backend, together with Handlebars.js – a good Javascript templating system. Today, let’s look at something pretty simple. The Plugin JavaScript and CSS is also included via RawGit – so changes may affect your working files. The plugin already includes the above files via CDN. Note that this will require the following files: This way, I can use different JavaScript libraries and frameworks when building these interfaces. Meaning, the entire front end is entirely up to me to build. Lately, I’ve been writing plenty of applications where the entire CRUD is involved all using SharePoint lists behind the scenes. Working with SharePoint’s REST API is pretty cool.
