Bootstrap 5 Media Component
Responsive bootstrap card with a strictly left-aligned image, title, description and optional aside flavor text. With Rust maud example code.
I seem to need this all the time, at some point this was a core component of bootstrap (version 2 maybe?), but now it needs to be built manually every single time. The classical component for listing media items!
This is an example of a Rust function using the maud
templating engine:
pub fn media(
title: &str,
description: &str,
image_url: &str,
link: &str,
aside: Option<&str>,
) -> Markup {
html! {
div class="card my-3" {
div class="card-body" {
div class="d-flex" {
a href=(link) {
@let alt = format!("picture of {}", title);
img src=(image_url) alt=(alt) class="me-3 rounded-1" style="width: 100px; height: 100px;" {}
}
div class="w-100" {
@if let Some(aside) = aside {
div class="d-flex justify-content-between" {
h5 class="d-inline" {
a href=(link) class="fw-bold" { (title) }
}
small class="text-muted text-end" { (aside) }
}
} @else {
h5 class="" {
a href=(link) class="fw-bold" { (title) }
}
}
p class="mb-0" {
(description)
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
... and here is an example output in HTML:
<div class="card my-3">
<div class="card-body">
<div class="d-flex">
<a href="https://example.com">
<img src="https://example.com/image.jpg" alt="pricture of Example Title" class="me-3 rounded-1" style="width: 100px; height: 100px;" />
</a>
<div class="w-100">
<div class="d-flex justify-content-between">
<h5 class="d-inline">
<a href="https://example.com" class="fw-bold">Example Title</a>
</h5>
<small class="text-muted text-end">Example Aside</small>
</div>
<p class="mb-0">
Example Description
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
