For more examples of how it works with different settings and UI conditions, check out this link.
Install Scroller with npm:
npm install prokrutchik
Add the scripts and styles to your project:
import { Scroller } from "prokrutchik";
import "prokrutchik/styles.css";
Or add them directly to the HTML file:
<script src="/path/to/prokrutchik/browser.js"></script>
<link href="/path/to/prokrutchik/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" />
By default, Scroller provides auto initialization for all the .scroller
elements on the page:
<ul class="scroller">
<li>First item</li>
<li>Second item</li>
<li>Third item</li>
</ul>
You can also initialize the instance manually:
<ul class="foo">
<li>First item</li>
<li>Second item</li>
<li>Third item</li>
</ul>
<script type="module">
import { Scroller } from "prokrutchik";
const instance = new Scroller({
element: document.querySelector(".foo"),
});
</script>
You can configure Scroller via data-
attributes in HTML:
data-navigation
, shows/hides the navigation buttons,"visible" | "hidden"
;data-scrollbar
, shows/hides the scrollbar under the content,"visible" | "hidden"
;data-align
, specifies how to align the content if it fits the screen,"start" | "center" | "end"
;data-start-position
, initial position of the content,number of px | "start" | "center" | "end"
;data-start-duration
, starting animation duration,number of milliseconds
.
Scroller items can be configured with:
data-anchor
, label of the item in the navigation,string
;data-focused
, if defined, Scroller will scroll to this item at the start.
You can also configure Scroller using the config object:
const scroller = new Scroller({
element: document.querySelector(".foo"),
// Show/hide the scrollbar, "visible" | "hidden":
scrollbar: "hidden",
// Show/hide the navigation, "visible" | "hidden":
navigation: "hidden",
// How to align content if it fits the screen, "start" | "center" | "end":
align: "center",
// Initial scroller content position, "start" | "center" | "end" | number of px:
startPosition: "center",
// Starting animation duration, number of milliseconds:
startDuration: 500,
});
Scroller provides API for changing current position, handling item clicks, and dynamically updating the config.
For position change, use the scrollTo
method:
// Scrolls to the beginning of the content
scroller.scrollTo("start");
// Scrolls to the center of the content:
scroller.scrollTo("center");
// Scrolls to the end of the content:
scroller.scrollTo("end");
// Scrolls to 100px from the start of the content:
scroller.scrollTo(100);
// Second optional parameter specifies
// the animation duration in milliseconds.
// Scrolls to center in 500 ms:
scroller.scrollTo("center", 500);
For handling clicks on items, specify the onItemClick
handler in the config:
const scroller = new Scroller({
element: document.querySelector(".foo"),
onItemClick: (event) => {
/* The `event` argument here is `TouchEvent` or `MouseEvent` depending on the user device. */
},
});
For configuration updates, use the update
method:
scroller.update({
scrollbar: "hidden",
navigation: "hidden",
align: "center",
onItemClick: someFunc,
});
Scroller with disabled scrollbar, active navigation, and start alignment, configured via HTML data-attributes:
<head>
<link href="/path/to/prokrutchik/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="/path/to/prokrutchik/browser.js" defer></script>
</head>
<body>
<ul class="scroller" data-scrollbar="hidden" data-align="start">
<img src="example.png" data-anchor="anchor1" />
<div data-anchor="anchor2"></div>
<table data-anchor="anchor3"></table>
<!-- ... -->
</div>
</body>
Scroller with the same settings configured via config object:
import { Scroller } from "prokrutchik";
import "prokrutchik/styles.css";
const myScroller = new Scroller({
el: document.querySelector(".foo"),
scrollbar: "hidden",
align: "start",
});
