Touch

Bootstrap 5 Touch

This component enables you to enhance the user experience on mobile touch screens by invoking methods on the following custom events: pinch, swipe, tap, press, pan, and rotate.

Note: Read the API tab to find all available options and advanced customization

Note: This method is intended only for users of mobile touch screens, so it won't work for the mouse or keyboard events.

Required ES init: Touch *
* UMD autoinits are enabled by default. This means that you don't need to initialize the component manually. However if you are using MDBootstrap ES format then you should pass the required components to the initMDB method.

Press

Press calls the chosen method when the touch event on the element lasts longer than 250 milliseconds.

Pinch

The pinch event calls the given method with an object containing two keys - ratio and origin. The first one is the ratio of the distance between user's fingers on touchend to the same distance on touchstart - it's particularly useful for scaling images. The second one, similarly as in doubleTap event, is a pair of coordinates indicating the middle point between the user's fingers.

Swipe Left/Right

The swipe event comes with several modifiers (left, right, up, down). Each modifier will ensure that event will fire only on swipe in that particular direction. If the directive is used without any modifier, the callback method will be called each time the swiping occurs, and the string indicating the direction will be passed as an argument.

The following example demonstrates usage with 'left' and 'right' modifiers.

Touch - API

Import

Importing components depends on how your application works. If you intend to use the MDBootstrap ES format, you must first import the component and then initialize it with the initMDB method. If you are going to use the UMD format, just import the mdb-ui-kit package.

            import { Touch, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
            initMDB({ Touch });
          
        
    
        
            
            import 'mdb-ui-kit';

Usage

Via data attributes

Using the Touch method doesn't require any additional JavaScript code - simply add data-mdb-touch-init attribute to element and use other data attributes to set all options. For ES format, you must first import and call the initMDB method.

Edit in sandbox 
        
            
            <button 
              type="button" 
              class="btn btn-primary btn-press" 
              data-mdb-ripple-init 
              data-mdb-touch-init 
              data-mdb-event="press" 
              data-mdb-time="2000">
              Tap & hold to show image
            </button>

Via JavaScript

Edit in sandbox 
        
            
              const myTouch = new Touch(document.getElementById('id'), event, options)
            
        
    
        
            
              const myTouch = new mdb.Touch(document.getElementById('id'), event, options)

Via jQuery

Note: By default, MDB does not include jQuery and you have to add it to the project on your own.

Edit in sandbox 
        
            
        $(document).ready(() => {
          $('.example-class').touch(event, options);
        });
