ribcage-picker
==============
This is a responsive widget that mimics the native "slot-machine" style pickers now ubiquitious on our mobile devices.
Desktop browsers will get regular old `` elements.
Browsers that meet the following criteria will get a touch-optimized slot-machine when the `` elements are tapped.
* Supports touch events
* Supports 3D transforms
* Supports CSS transitions
`ribcage-picker` is a [Backbone](http://backbonejs.org/) view, best served with the other great components in the [ribcage-ui](https://github.com/Techwraith/ribcage-ui) collection.

Usage
-----
#### Creating A Picker
```js
var Picker = require('ribcage-picker')
, picker;
picker = new Picker({
slots: {
quantity: {
values: {1: .5, 2: 1, 3: 1.5, 4: 2}
, defaultKey: 5
}
, unit: {
values: {
kilograms: 'kg'
, pounds: 'lb'
}
, style: 'left'
}
}
});
```
#### Changing Slot Values
What if we wanted the quantity slot to change in response to the selected unit? Imperial units usually have fractional quantities, while Metric units have decimal quantities.
We can use `.setSlot` for this.
```js
picker.setSlot('quantity', {
values: {
1: '1/2'
, 2: '1'
, 3: '1-1/2'
, 4: '2'
}
, style: 'left' // You can also change the style if you'd like
// But you can't change the defaultKey anymore
// After all, it only makes sense to use it the first time the picker is opened
});
```
When `setSlot` is used, `ribcage-picker` will attempt to scroll the slot to a value with the same key. If it can't find a matching key, it will try to scroll the slot as close as possible to the physical location of the last selected row.
In this example, switching between the fractional and decimal units will be seamless, because the keys correspond to equivalent values.
#### Listening For Changes
Pickers emit `change` events. You can listen for a specific slot with `change:`.
```js
// Render your view when the picker changes in value
this.listenTo(picker, 'change', this.render);
// Change one slot in response to another one changing
this.listenTo(picker, 'change:unit', function (selection) {
// Selection is {key: , value: }
switch(selection.value) {
'lb':
this.picker.setSlot('quantity', {values: fractionalValues});
break;
'kg':
this.picker.setSlot('quantity', {values: decimalValues});
break;
}
});
```

The first version of this widget was written over four years ago by the amazing [Matteo Spinelli](http://cubiq.org/spinning-wheel-on-webkit-for-iphone-ipod-touch).
Without the original project, `ribcage-picker` would have been significantly harder to put together.
A shoutout to @techwraith, without whom `ribcage-ui` and this widget wouldn't have happened.
