Angular Bootstrap Carousel (slider)

MDB gives you a possibility to present your images, videos, and text messages in much more eye-pleasant form by providing you with few stunning carousels.

Each carousel is fully responsive and works perfectly on any device or browser.

Basic example 

                
<!--Carousel Wrapper-->
<mdb-carousel [isControls]="true" [animation]="'slide'">
    <!--First slide-->
    <mdb-carousel-item>
        <img class="d-block w-100" src="https://mdbootstrap.com/img/Photos/Slides/img%20(130).jpg" alt="First slide">
    </mdb-carousel-item>
    <!--/First slide-->
    <!--Second slide-->
    <mdb-carousel-item>
        <img class="d-block w-100" src="https://mdbootstrap.com/img/Photos/Slides/img%20(129).jpg" alt="Second slide">
    </mdb-carousel-item>
    <!--/Second slide-->
    <!--Third slide-->
    <mdb-carousel-item>
        <img class="d-block w-100" src="https://mdbootstrap.com/img/Photos/Slides/img%20(70).jpg" alt="Third slide">
    </mdb-carousel-item>
    <!--/Third slide-->
</mdb-carousel>
<!--/.Carousel Wrapper-->

Optional captions

Add captions to your slides easily with the .carousel-caption element within any slide. Place just about any optional HTML within there and it will be automatically aligned and formatted.

If your content is not visible enough, you can cover the image with a darker mask.

You can easily change the intensity and color of the mask. To learn more read our MASKS documentation.

Caption and mask

If you want to add a caption to your carousel you will probably also need to cover it with a dark mask, to make your caption more visible.

You can easily change the intensity and color of the mask. To learn more read our MASKS documentation.

.play()

All carousel events are fired at the carousel itself (i.e. at the <div class="carousel">).

Event Type Description
activeSlideChange Will be emitted when active slide has been changed

Slide {{index}}

{{slide.text}}
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'carousel-example', templateUrl: 'carousel-example.html', }) export class CarouselExampleComponent { public myInterval: number = 3000; public activeSlideIndex: number = 0; public noWrapSlides:boolean = false; activeSlideChange(event: any){ console.log(event); } public slides:Array = [ {"image":"https://mdbootstrap.com/img/Photos/Slides/img%20(18).jpg"}, {"image":"https://mdbootstrap.com/img/Photos/Slides/img%20(19).jpg"}, {"image":"https://mdbootstrap.com/img/Photos/Slides/img%20(20).jpg"}, ]; }

API Reference:

In order to speed up your application, you can choose to import only the modules you actually need, instead of importing the entire MDB Angular library. Remember that importing the entire library, and immediately afterwards a specific module, is bad practice, and can cause application errors.

API Reference for MDB Angular Carousel:
// For MDB Angular Pro
import { CarouselModule, WavesModule, ButtonsModule } from 'ng-uikit-pro-standard'
// For MDB Angular Free
import { CarouselModule, WavesModule, ButtonsModule } from 'angular-bootstrap-md'
