I have multiple scrollbars to my page, but can't make them working properly :
<div class="dates-container" v-for="id in ids">
<overlay-scrollbars
:ref="`datesHeader`+id"
:options="datesScrollOptions"
:key="id"
>
</div>
......
resetScroller() {
this.$nextTick(() => {
if (this.$refs[`datesHeader${this.currentRoom}`][0]) {
const inst = this.$refs[`datesHeader${this.currentRoom}`][0].osInstance();
if (inst == null) return;
const state = inst.getState();
if (state.hasOverflow.x) {
inst.scroll({ x: 0 });
}
this.updateScrollButtons();
}
});
},
Like that is working fine; The problem is when I tried to identify which scrollbar was moved and how I can update this.currentRoom when scrollbar is moved;
Firsty u have wrong :ref value - should be :ref="`datesHeader-${id}`"
then on onMounted you can add event listners to $refs
onMounted() {
this.$refs['datesHeader-0'].addEventLister('scroll', watchFunc)
}
DOCS:
https://developer.mozilla.org/pl/docs/Web/API/EventTarget/addEventListener
remember to remove event listeners in onBeforeUnmount
also, IntersectionObserver could be good for tracking scroll

The content of my Vue app is fetched from Prismic (an API CMS). I have a rich text block, some parts of which are wrapped inside span tags with a specific class. I want to get those span nodes with Vue and add to them an event listener.
With JS, this code would work:
var selectedSpanElements = document.querySelectorAll('.className');
selectedSpanElements[0].style.color = "red"
But when I use this code in Vue, I can see that it works just a fraction of a second before Vue updates the DOM. I've tried using this code on mounted, beforeupdate, updated, ready hooks... Nothing has worked.
Update: Some hours later, I found that with the HTMLSerializer I can add HTML code to the span tag. But this is regular HTML, I cannot access to Vue methods.
#Bruja
I was able to find a solution using a closure. The folks at Prismic reminded/showed me.
Of note, per Phil Snow's comment above: If you are using Nuxt you won't have access to Vue's functionality and will have to go old-school JS.
Here is an example where you can pass in component-level props, data, methods, etc... to the prismic htmlSerializer:
<template>
<div>
<prismic-rich-text
:field="data"
:htmlSerializer="anotherHtmlSerializer((startNumber = list.start_number))"
/>
</div>
</template>
import prismicDOM from 'prismic-dom';
export default {
methods: {
anotherHtmlSerializer(startNumber = 1) {
const Elements = prismicDOM.RichText.Elements;
const that = this;
return function(type, element, content, children) {
// To add more elements and customizations use this as a reference:
// https://prismic.io/docs/vuejs/beyond-the-api/html-serializer
that.testMethod(startNumber);
switch (type) {
case Elements.oList:
return `<ol start=${startNumber}>${children.join('')}</ol>`;
}
// Return null to stick with the default behavior for everything else
return null;
};
},
testMethod(startNumber) {
console.log('test method here');
console.log(startNumber);
}
}
};
I believe you are on the right track looking into the HTML Serializer. If you want all your .specialClass <span> elements to trigger a click event that calls specialmethod() this should work for you:
import prismicDOM from 'prismic-dom';
const Elements = prismicDOM.RichText.Elements;
export default function (type, element, content, children) {
// I'm not 100% sure if element.className is correct, investigate with your devTools if it doesn't work
if (type === Elements.span && element.className === "specialClass") {
return `<span #click="specialMethod">${content}</span>`;
}
// Return null to stick with the default behavior for everything else
return null;
};
I've created tooltip plugin as React component. I have topology diagram with some nodes and I wanted to show this tooltip after hover on node. And it works fine but the problem is that I don't want this immediately, I want to do this with some seconds delay.
I've made method with rendering DOM element:
showWithDelay(nodeContent): any {
this.isVisible = true;
ReactDOM.render(<IfsTooltip
positionLeft={this.leftPosition}
positionTop={this.topPosition}
isVisible={this.isVisible}
children={nodeContent}/>, document.getElementById('ifs-tooltip'));
}
Firstly I tried to delay only setting isVisible props to true but It didn't rerender compononent. So I decided to delay rendering this element but It also didn't help me.
This is how I'm calling setTimeout:
onNodeOver(system: any, element: any, hoverElement: TopologyElementType) {
const nodeContent = (<NodeContent system={system} element={element}/>);
this.leftPosition = element.x + 50;
this.topPosition = element.y + 50;
if (hoverElement === TopologyElementType.NODE) {
setTimeout(this.showWithDelay(nodeContent), 4000);
}
}
In constructor I have:
constructor() {
super();
this.showWithDelay = this.showWithDelay.bind(this);
}
Does anyone has solution to solve this problem?
EDIT:
onNodeOut() {
this.isVisible = false;
ReactDOM.unmountComponentAtNode(document.getElementById('ifs-tooltip'));
}
Delay now works but when I move really fast on many nodes then I can see that content is overriding with data from every nodes that I mouseoverd. What I want to achive? When I'm out from node before tooltip is render I want to stop counting and I don't want to render this tooltip.
I'm currently working on an Angular 2 Project where I have a menu that should be closable by a click on a button. Since this is not heavy at all, I would like to put it outside of Angular (without using a component for the menu).
But I'm not sure of how to do it, actually I've just put a simple javascript in my html header, but shouldn't I put it somewhere else?
Also, what the code should be? Using class, export something? Currently this is my code:
var toggleMenuButton = document.getElementById('open-close-sidebar');
var contentHolder = document.getElementById('main-content');
var menuHolder = document.getElementById('sidebar');
var menuIsVisible = true;
var updateVisibility = function() {
contentHolder.className = menuIsVisible ? "minimised" : "extended";
menuHolder.className = menuIsVisible ? "open" : "closed";
}
toggleMenuButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
menuIsVisible = !menuIsVisible;
updateVisibility();
});
Finally moved to something with MenuComponent and a service, but I'm still encountering an issue.
MenuService.ts
#Injectable()
export class MenuService {
isAvailable: boolean = true;
isOpen: boolean = true;
mainClass: string = "minimised";
sidebarClass: string = "open";
updateClassName() {
this.mainClass = this.isOpen ? "minimised" : "extended";
this.sidebarClass = this.isOpen ? "open" : "closed";
}
toggleMenu(newState: boolean = !this.isOpen) {
this.isOpen = newState;
this.updateClassName();
}
}
MenuComponent.ts
export class MenuComponent {
constructor(private _menuService: MenuService) { }
public isAvailable: boolean = this._menuService.isAvailable;
public sidebarClass: string = this._menuService.sidebarClass;
toggleMenu() {
this._menuService.toggleMenu();
}
}
MenuComponent.html
<div id="sidebar" [class]="sidebarClass" *ngIf="isAvailable">
...
<div id="open-close-sidebar"><a (click)="toggleMenu()"></a></div>
The action are rightly triggered, if I debug the value with console.log, the class name are right but it didn't change the value of the class. I thought the binding was automatic. And I still do not really understand how to change it. Do I have to use Emmit like AMagyar suggested?
The advantage of using angular2 above your own implementation, greatly outweigh the marginal benefit in performance you will get from using plane JavaSccript. I suggest not going on this path.
If you however do want to continue with this, you should export a function and import and call this function inside the ngAfterViewInit of your AppComponent. The exported function should add the click EventListener and (important) set the document.getElementById variables. Because your script possibly won't be able to find those elements yet when it's loaded.
But let me emphasise once more, that angular2 is optimised for exactly these tasks, and once you get more familiar with it, it will also be a lot easier to code it.
update
For inter component communication you should immediately think about a service. Just create a service which stores the menu state and add this to your global ngModule providers array. For instance:
export class MenuService {
public get menuOpen(): boolean {
return this._menuOpen;
}
private _menuOpen: boolean;
public openMenu() : void {
this._menuOpen = true;
}
public closeMenu() : void {
this._menuOpen = false;
}
public toggleMenu() : void {
this._menuOpen = !this._menuOpen;
}
}
You can then inject this service into your menu component and bind the classes open/closed and minimized/extended to the MenuService.menuOpen.
#Component({
selector : 'menu'
template : `
<button (click)="menuService.toggleMenu()">click</button>
<div id="open-close-sidebar" [class.open]="menuService.menuOpen"></div>
`
})
export class MenuComponent {
constructor(public menuService: MenuService){}
}
For other component you can use the same logic to see if the menu is open or closed
update #2
You have to use a getter to get the value from menuService. There is only one way binding:
export class MenuComponent {
constructor(private _menuService: MenuService) { }
public get isAvailable(): boolean {
return this._menuService.isAvailable;
}
public get sidebarClass(): string {
return this._menuService.sidebarClass;
}
toggleMenu() {
this._menuService.toggleMenu();
}
}
FYI, it's better practice to use [class.open] instead of a string class name. If you want to do it like that, it will only require minimal change in your current css.
The main reason of why I want to avoid using Angular component is the
fact that my manipulation should be done over all the website and not
just the "menu" component.
You can create many components in Angular 2, it's easy and very practical.
The action will change the class on my menu (located in my menu
component) and on my main content (located outside of the component).
I don't know how to do it, and I'm not sure that this is the best
way... Maybe by binding the service value directly... –
The main content can have a child that is the Menu itself.
Take a look in this link. There are many solutions, one of them is to "emit" the child changes to the parent.
If you need an example I can provide one quickly.
I have a Vue.js component with several elements in it. I want to automatically scroll to the bottom of that element when a method in the component is called.
Basically, do the same as this. However, I haven't found a way to get the element within my component and modify scrollTop
I'm currently using Vue.js 2.0.8.
2022 easy, readable, smooth scrolling ability, & won't hurt your brain... use el.scrollIntoView()
scrollIntoView() has options you can pass it like scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth'}) to get smooth scrolling out of the box and does not require any external libraries.
Here is a fiddle.
methods: {
scrollToElement() {
const el = this.$refs.scrollToMe;
if (el) {
// Use el.scrollIntoView() to instantly scroll to the element
el.scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth'});
}
}
}
Then if you wanted to scroll to this element on page load you could call this method like this:
mounted() {
this.scrollToElement();
}
Else if you wanted to scroll to it on a button click or some other action you could call it the same way:
<button #click="scrollToElement">scroll to me</button>
The scroll works all the way down to IE 8. The smooth scroll effect does not work out of the box in IE or Safari. If needed there is a polyfill available for this here as #mostafaznv mentioned in the comments.
As I understand, the desired effect you want is to scroll to the end of a list (or scrollable div) when something happens (e.g.: an item is added to the list). If so, you can scroll to the end of a container element (or even the page it self) using only pure JavaScript and the VueJS selectors.
var container = this.$el.querySelector("#container");
container.scrollTop = container.scrollHeight;
I've provided a working example in this fiddle.
Every time a item is added to the list, the list is scrolled to the end to show the new item.
I tried the accepted solution and it didn't work for me. I use the browser debugger and found out the actual height that should be used is the clientHeight BUT you have to put this into the updated() hook for the whole solution to work.
data(){
return {
conversation: [
{
}
]
},
mounted(){
EventBus.$on('msg-ctr--push-msg-in-conversation', textMsg => {
this.conversation.push(textMsg)
// Didn't work doing scroll here
})
},
updated(){ <=== PUT IT HERE !!
var elem = this.$el
elem.scrollTop = elem.clientHeight;
},
Use the ref attribute on the DOM element for reference
<div class="content scrollable" ref="msgContainer">
<!-- content -->
</div>
You need to setup a WATCH
data() {
return {
count: 5
};
},
watch: {
count: function() {
this.$nextTick(function() {
var container = this.$refs.msgContainer;
container.scrollTop = container.scrollHeight + 120;
});
}
}
Ensure you're using proper CSS
.scrollable {
overflow: hidden;
overflow-y: scroll;
height: calc(100vh - 20px);
}
Here is a simple example using ref to scroll to the bottom of a div.
/*
Defined somewhere:
var vueContent = new Vue({
el: '#vue-content',
...
*/
var messageDisplay = vueContent.$refs.messageDisplay;
messageDisplay.scrollTop = messageDisplay.scrollHeight;
<div id='vue-content'>
<div ref='messageDisplay' id='messages'>
<div v-for="message in messages">
{{ message }}
</div>
</div>
</div>
Notice that by putting ref='messageDisplay' in the HTML, you have access to the element through vueContent.$refs.messageDisplay
If you need to support IE11 and (old) Edge, you can use:
scrollToBottom() {
let element = document.getElementById("yourID");
element.scrollIntoView(false);
}
If you don't need to support IE11, the following will work (clearer code):
scrollToBottom() {
let element = document.getElementById("yourID");
element.scrollIntoView({behavior: "smooth", block: "end"});
}
Try vue-chat-scroll:
Install via npm: npm install --save vue-chat-scroll
Import:
import Vue from 'vue'
import VueChatScroll from 'vue-chat-scroll'
Vue.use(VueChatScroll)
in app.js after window.Vue = require('vue').default;
then use it with :
<ul class="messages" v-chat-scroll>
// your message/chat code...
</ul>
For those that haven't found a working solution above, I believe I have a working one. My specific use case was that I wanted to scroll to the bottom of a specific div - in my case a chatbox - whenever a new message was added to the array.
const container = this.$el.querySelector('#messagesCardContent');
this.$nextTick(() => {
// DOM updated
container.scrollTop = container.scrollHeight;
});
I have to use nextTick as we need to wait for the dom to update from the data change before doing the scroll!
I just put the above code in a watcher for the messages array, like so:
messages: {
handler() {
// this scrolls the messages to the bottom on loading data
const container = this.$el.querySelector('#messagesCard');
this.$nextTick(() => {
// DOM updated
container.scrollTop = container.scrollHeight;
});
},
deep: true,
},
The solution did not work for me but the following code works for me. I am working on dynamic items with class of message-box.
scrollToEnd() {
setTimeout(() => {
this.$el
.getElementsByClassName("message-box")
[
this.$el.getElementsByClassName("message-box").length -
1
].scrollIntoView();
}, 50);
}
Remember to put the method in mounted() not created() and add class message-box to the dynamic item. setTimeout() is essential for this to work. You can refer to https://forum.vuejs.org/t/getelementsbyclassname-and-htmlcollection-within-a-watcher/26478 for more information about this.
This is what worked for me
this.$nextTick(() => {
let scrollHeight = this.$refs.messages.scrollHeight
window.scrollTo(0, scrollHeight)
})
In the related question you posted, we already have a way to achieve that in plain javascript, so we only need to get the js reference to the dom node we want to scroll.
The ref attribute can be used to declare reference to html elements to make them available in vue's component methods.
Or, if the method in the component is a handler for some UI event, and the target is related to the div you want to scroll in space, you can simply pass in the event object along with your wanted arguments, and do the scroll like scroll(event.target.nextSibling).
I had the same need in my app (with complex nested components structure) and I unfortunately did not succeed to make it work.
Finally I used vue-scrollto that works fine !
My solutions without modules:
Template
<div class="scrollable-content" ref="conversations" />
Script
scrollToBottom() {
const container = this.$refs.conversations;
container.scrollTop = container.scrollHeight;
},
scrollToBottom() {
this.$nextTick(function () {
let BoxEl = document.querySelector('#Box');
if(BoxEl)
BoxEl.scrollTop = BoxEl.scrollHeight;
});
}
Agree with Lurein Perera
Just want to add extra info
watch: {
arrayName: {
handler() {
const container = this.$el.querySelector("#idName");
this.$nextTick(() => {
container.scrollTop = container.scrollHeight;
});
},
deep: true,
},
},
Where as:
arrayName = Name of array
idName = The id attribute has to be added to the div where you want the scrollbar to auto-scroll down when arrayName length increases.
scrollToElement() {
const element = this.$refs.abc; // here abc is the ref of the element
if (element) {
el.scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth'});
}
}
}
here you need to use ref for the particular div or element which you want make visible on scroll.
if you have a table and you want to locate the last row of the table then you have to use -
element.lastElementChild.scrollIntoView({behaviour:'smooth'})
Here not that if you ware asynchronously adding the element to the table then you have to take care of it. you can test it using setTimeout, if that is making any difference.
e.g.
const element = this.$refs.abc;
if (element) {
setTimeout(() => {
element.lastElementChild.scrollIntoView({behaviour:'smooth'})
}, 1000);
}
}
replace set timeout with your own async logic.
Using Composition API and TypeScript
I set the parameter scrollTop equal to scrollHeightfrom the HTMLDivElment API.
<template>
<div id="container" ref="comments">
Content ...
</div>
</template>
<script lang="ts">
import { defineComponent, ref, Ref, watchEffect } from 'vue'
export default defineComponent({
setup() {
const comments: Ref<null | HTMLDivElement> = ref(null)
watchEffect(() => {
if(comments.value) {
comments.value.scrollTop = comments.value.scrollHeight
}
})
return {
comments
}
}
})
</script>
