# Gallery for Angular 2

Responsive gallery with support for masonry layout and lightbox.

## Demo
http://crystalui.org/components/gallery

## Installation

Install the npm package:

```sh
npm i ngx-crystal-gallery
```
        
Import module:

```ts
import {CrystalGalleryModule} from 'ngx-crystal-gallery/components';

@NgModule({
    imports: [CrystalGalleryModule]
})
```

## Usage
By default, the gallery is displayed as masonry grid layout allowing you to open an enlarged image in the lightbox.
```ts
myImages = [
  {
    preview: 'path_to_preview',
    full: 'path_to_full_image',
    width: natural_width, // used for masonry
    height: natural_height, // used for masonry
    description: 'description of the image' // optional property
  },
  ...
];

myConfig = {
  ...
};
```
```html
<crystal-gallery [images]="myImages" [config]="myConfig"></crystal-gallery>
```

You can also use a lightbox separately.
```ts
import { CrystalLightbox } from 'ngx-crystal-gallery';

constructor(lightbox: CrystalLightbox) {}

myImages = [
  {
    path: 'path_to_image'
  },
  ...
];
```
```html
<button (click)="lightbox.open(myImages)">Photo of road</button>
<button (click)="lightbox.open(myImages, {index: 1})">Photo of forest</button>
<button (click)="lightbox.open([{path: 'path_to_image'}])">Photo of hill</button>
```
