Albe Timeline 4.0.2
Albe Timeline is a simple yet highly customizable jQuery plugin that helps you render a responsive horizontal (or vertical) timeline from JSON data.
The data will be automatically grouped by year and the events will be sorted by date.
In addition, this plugin is able to handle almost any type of content such as images, videos, audios and more.
Use license
The plugin is open source and released for commercial use without cost. I only ask you to contact me if you implement it somewhere, so I can take a look or add it here as a demonstration.

});Html Structure
Using the plugin defaults, we'll have a similar result:
<div id="myTimeline">
<section id="timeline">
<div id="year2016" class="group2016">2016</div>
<article class="animated fadeInUp">
<div class="panel">
<div class="badge">20 Jan</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<img src="../img/qrcode.png" width="150px" class="img-responsive">
<h2>Sample with image</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, nisl lorem.</p>
</div>
</div>
</article>
<div id="year2015" class="group2015">2015</div>
<article class="animated fadeInUp inverted">
<div class="panel">
<div class="badge">29 Mar</div>
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4 class="panel-title">Sample of header</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<h1>Lorem ipsum</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, nisl lorem.</p>
</div>
<div class="panel-footer">Sample of footer</div>
</div>
</article>
<article class="animated fadeInUp">
<div class="panel">
<div class="badge"> </div>
</div>
</article>
<div class="clearfix" style="float: none;"></div>
</section>
</div>Notes
- The Json object is also accepted in string format. For example:
$('#myTimeline').albeTimeline('[{"time": "2016-01-20", "body": [{ "tag": "h1", "content": "Lorem ipsum" }, { "tag": "p", "content": "massa, cursus quisque leo quisque dui." }]}]');-
The time element must meet the ISO 8601 standard in year-month-day format "yyyy-MM-dd" or "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"
-
If you need to pass a CSS class as an element attribute, use the property name cssclass. For example:
body: [{
tag: 'img',
attr: {
src: '../img/qrcode.png',
width: '150px',
cssclass: 'img-responsive'
}
}- For double quotes in attributes, use "escape". For example:
body: [{
tag: 'p',
content: 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. See <a href=\"https://github.com/Albejr/jquery-albe-timeline\" target=\"_blank\">more details</a>'
}
}
