Requirements

Usage

Add the following to the <head> or <body> tag of your HTML page.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://raw.github.com/christianv/jquery-lifestream/master/jquery.lifestream.min.js"></script>
<script>
  $("#lifestream").lifestream({
    list:[
      {
        service: "github",
        user: "christianv"
      },
      {
        service: "twitter",
        user: "denbuzze"
      }
    ]
  });
</script>

The above code will always use the latest version of the script.
If you want to use it in production, download the minified or uncompressed file and host it yourself.

You also need to add a bit of HTML:

<div id="lifestream">&nbsp;</div>

jQuery Templates

You have the ability to use jQuery templates for your feed.
Checkout the template page to see an overview of the current available templates.

Usage:

{
  service: 'deviantart',
  user: 'gabbyd70',
  template: {
    deviationpost: 'heeft hetvolgende gepost: <a href="${url}">${title}</a>'
  }
}

Configuration

The plug-in accepts one configuration JSON object:

$("#lifestream").lifestream({
  classname: "lifestream",
  feedloaded: feedcallback,
  limit: 30,
  list:[
    {
      service: "github",
      user: "christianv"
    },
    {
      service: "twitter",
      user: "denbuzze"
    }
  ]
});

classname: The name of the main lifestream class. We use this for the main ul class e.g. lifestream and for the specific feeds e.g. lifestream-twitter

feedloaded: (function) A callback function which is triggered each time a feed was loaded.

limit: (integer) Specify how many elements you want in your lifestream (default = 10).

list: (array) Array containing other JSON objects with information about each item.
Each item should have a service and a user.
For more information about each service, check out the source code of the example page.

Commit to the project

Add your own feed

Adding in your own feed is pretty easy.
Have a look at this commit which adds support for the last.fm feed.

Create data:URI for an icon

  1. Convert the favicon.ico of a site to a .png file. (e.g. http://google.com/favicon.ico)
  2. Optimize the .png file. Save it in src/favicons/.
  3. Make a data:URI for it.
  4. Put the data:URI in css/lifestream.css (alphabetical order).

How to commit?

  1. Push the finished code to your own remote repository.
  2. Send a pull request to christianv/jquery-lifestream.

Code Style Guidelines

  • Indentation: 2 spaces
  • Max column width: 78 characters
  • Trailing spaces: not allowed
  • Always use curly brackets {} for if/else/for
  • Put all var statements in the beginning of a function
  • Use === & !== for comparing variables
  • Use the following spacing rules:
for (var i = 0, j = length; i < j; i++) {
