How to create a looped version of ng-carousel? #4

Closed pomerantsev closed 10 years ago

pomerantsev commented 10 years ago

The question is not about the implementation details, really. But I've got a project (not so urgent) where I'd like to have a reliable looped carousel with images. I'm not content with the one I've created so far. This one looks promising: http://ngmodules.org/modules/angular-carousel, but it doesn't seem to have a looped version. The help I'd like to get is some hints on how to wrap my head around the codebase in reasonable time and make a decision on whether to fork it, to use it 'as is' (it probably already has the required functionality), or to write a custom solution from scratch. We could discuss this and use this project as homework.

As we discussed, evaluate a couple of options before selecting one. The Angular UI team has a carousel in Angular UI Bootstrap and many others exist. Find one that you like and understand, even if it's missing a feature you'd like to have. Check that the feature hasn't been proposed (and rejected) already before proposing it via a bug report. Offer to submit a patch / pull-request in your bug report. If there's support for the feature you've proposed, the maintainers will be quite likely to assist you in making the patch. If there's not, it might be difficult or impossible to get your proposal approved, even if you submit a terrific patch. Whatever you choose to do, just @-mention me on the ticket, and I'll do my best to keep up.
