Disable Swiper Slider if only 1 slide

Question

I'm using swiper slider on a site and would like to have it disabled if there is only one slide.

Currently with only one slide the pagination appears and you can click that or swipe. Ideally there shouldn't be any interaction if there is only one slide.

My current js is:

  var swiper = new Swiper('.swiper-container', {
    // Optional parameters
    direction: 'horizontal',
    loop: false,
    //autoplay: 6500,
    autoplayDisableOnInteraction: false,

    keyboardControl: true,
    mousewheelControl: true,

    pagination: '.swiper-pagination',
    paginationClickable: true,

  });

Answer 1

There is an option in Swiper API that might be useful :

watchOverflow (boolean|false)
// When enabled Swiper will be disabled and hide navigation buttons on case there are not enough slides for sliding

Answer 2

Simply add a condition:

if ($('.swiper-container .swiper-slide').length > 1) {
  var swiper = new Swiper('.swiper-container', {
    // Optional parameters
    direction: 'horizontal',
    loop: false,
    //autoplay: 6500,
    autoplayDisableOnInteraction: false,

    keyboardControl: true,
    mousewheelControl: true,

    pagination: '.swiper-pagination',
    paginationClickable: true,

  });
}
