Timeline is a DHTML-based AJAXy widget for visualizing temporal information. It works in a similar way as Google Maps but for time-based events.

This Drupal module is based on a JavaScript widget developed by the MIT SIMILE project. Several demo timelines demonstrating the full range of capabilities for this widget are available on the SIMILE project site at:
http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/

Currently, the Views module is required to provide the list of nodes to render. This module provides two new plugins for the Views module:

  • Timeline Horizontal
  • Timeline Vertical

In addition, two default views are provided to get you started quickly:

  • timeline_nodes: plots any nodes by their created date
  • timeline_events: plots event nodes by their event start and end dates (requires the Event module)

Be sure to read the accompanying README.txt and INSTALL.txt for installation and usage instructions.

Note: if all you need is a timeline of an Atom or RSS feed, you can use the timeline.to service which can provide you with an easily-embeddable HTML snippet for displaying the timeline.

This module is maintained by Jeff Miccolis from Development Seed. It was originally created by David Donohue and further developed by Arto Bendiken.
