An attempt to build a timeline generator plugin for vueJS

Elements

Timeline Element

Props

allEvents

The JSON containing all your events

currentIndex

The current index to show. The timeline is only shown up to the passed in index. To allow a timeline to slowly be revealed by incrementing a number

Example

<template>
    <div id="app">
            <timeline :allEvents="timelineEvents" :currentIndex="currentIndex"></timeline>
    </div>
</template>


<script>
    import Timeline from 'vue-timeline'
    import TimelineEvents from '../../assets/vuejs/timeline_nodes.js'
    export default {
        name: 'app',
        components: {
            'timeline': Timeline
        },
        data() {
            return {
                timelineEvents: TimelineEvents,
                currentIndex: 2
            }
        }
    }
</script>

Events

Currently the events have to be specified in JSON

{"nodes": [
     {
         "type": "encounter",
         "desc": "Encounter Object"
     },
     {
         "type": "point-of-interest",
         "date_time": "04/06/2017 11:25AM",
         "desc": "Point Of Interest Object"
     },
     {
         "type": "event-point",
         "title": "Event Point Object - Sloth",
         "date_time": "17/06/2017 9:00pm",
         "desc": "A picture, I did not take of a sloth",
         "image": "./sloth.jpg"
     },
 ]}

As shown above, there are 3 different types of events that you might use for different events
