Dependencies

jQuery.event.move: stephband.info/jquery.event.move

One of swipeleft, swiperight, swipeup or swipedown is triggered on moveend, when the move has covered at least a threshold proportion of the dimension of the target node.

Swipe events are a thin wrapper around the moveend event, a convenience to reveal when a finger has made a swipe gesture. As such they don't bubble — they are retriggered on each passing of a moveend event. The underlying move events do bubble and delegate. Use them if you need more flexibility.

CommonJS

If you're using Browserify, or any other CommonJS-compatible module system, you can require this script by passing it your jQuery reference. For example,


require('./path/to/jquery.event.move.js')(jQuery);
