Description

Simple solution to a common problem:

Much can be done, but this is the first version

    $('.collapse-wrapper').autoCollapser();
});
```

### Options

[](#options)

```
{
    box: '.collapse-box',                 // The box that will be collasped
    toggle: '.collapse-toggle',           // The trigger, binding will be added onClick
    collapsedClass: 'collapse-collapsed', // Class to be added to the wrapper when it is collapsed
    expandedClass: 'collapse-expanded',   // Idem
    duration: 800,                        // Speed in ms for the animation,
    stop: true                            // Empty the queue using .stop(true, true)
}
```

CSS Example
-----------

[](#css-example)

```
.collapse-wrapper {
    border: 1px solid green;
    padding: 10px;
    margin: 10px;
}

.collapse-expanded .collapse-toggle::after {
    content: " -"
}
.collapse-collapsed .collapse-toggle::after {
    content: " +"
}

.collapse-box {
    border: 1px solid red;
    margin: 10px;
}
```

[](#api)

```
$('.collapse-wrapper').autoCollapser('show');
$('.collapse-wrapper').autoCollapser('hide');
$('.collapse-wrapper').autoCollapser('toggle');
```

### Events

[](#events)

Two events are made and they both pass the data.show as a boolean

- autoCollapser.toggle.start
- autoCollapser.toggle.after

```
$('.collapse-wrapper').on('autoCollapser.toggle.start', function(event,data){
  console.log("Collapser has started " + (data.show ? 'expanding' : 'collasping'));
});
$('.collapse-wrapper').on('autoCollapser.toggle.after', function(event,data){
  console.log("Collapser was " + (data.show ? 'expanded' : 'collasped'));
});
```
