jQuery Twitter Bootstrap Flickr Carousel

less than 1 minute read

A few months ago I built a jQuery plugin that uses the Twitter Bootstrap Carousel to cycle through images on Flickr. In order to use this plugin you need to get an Api Key from Flickr and have the following software:

  • jQuery (v1.8 or higher)
  • Twitter Bootstrap (v3.0 or higher)
  • Twitter Bootstrap components (v3.0 or higher)
  • twbsPagination (optional)

Sample Usage

$('#flickr-carousel').twbsFlickrCarousel(
  {
    tagsToSearchFor: 'mvpsummit,mvp2013,mvp13',
    flickrApiKey: 'insert your key here',
    paginationSelector: '#flickr-pagination'
  }
);

Download the plugin from GitHub at: https://github.com/jguadagno/twbs-flickrCarousel
