Introduction

The jQueryUI filter converts static HTML to a jQuery UI accordion or tabs widget.

For example, this module converts the below HTML code into a collapsed jQueryUI accordion widget.

<p>[accordion collapsed]</p>

  <h3>Section I</h3>
  <p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>

  <h3>Section II</h3>
  <p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>

  <h3>Section III</h3>
  <p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>

<p>[/accordion]</p>

Notes

General

  • Goal is to keep this module as simple as possible.
  • Make it easy for developers and site builders to provide custom configuration.
  • Allow accordion and tabs widgets to still be extended and enhanced with custom code.

For Site Builders

  • Any jQuery UI accordion or tabs option is supported.

  • The [token] options can contain valid JSON data which will be converted to JavaScript array and objects when a widget is rendered.

    • JSON data must be valid.
    • JSON can be wrapped in single quote instead of double quotes.
    • JSON parsing errors will logged to the browser's console.
    • The below example would create sliding tabs.
      [tabs show='{"effect": "slideDown", "duration": 1000}' hide='{"effect": "slideUp", "duration": 1000}']

For Developers

  • 75% of this module's core code is in jquery_ui_filter.js, which transforms HTML5

    tags containing data-ui-* attributes into jQuery UI accordion and/or tabs with customize options.
  • The actually filter \Drupal\jquery_ui_filter\Plugin\Filter\jQueryUiFilter just transforms [tokens] with options into <div> tags with data-ui-* attributes. Example:
    <p>[accordion collapsed customAttribute="some value"]</p>
    ...is transformed into...
    <div data-ui-role-"accordion" data-ui-collapsed="true" data-ui-custom-attributes="some value">

  • All camelCase options will be convert to lower case hyphen delimited attributes, which are support by HTML5. The hyphen delimited attributes will be converted back into camelCase options when the widget is rendered.

  • A JsFiddle example has been setup to allow cross-browser testing and debugging outside of Drupal.

  • The tests directory contains manual test scripts and static HTML5 examples for testing the front end JavaScript behavior.
