Swup Preserve Scroll Plugin

This is a plugin for swup — complete, flexible, extensible and easy to use page transition library for your web.

Using this plugin, when swup replaces page content, any elements matching a selector (.swup-preserve-scroll by default) will have their current scroll position preserved, and reimposed on their replacement element.

Installation

This plugin can be installed with npm

npm install @ngsctt/swup-preserve-scroll-plugin

and included with import

import SwupPreserveScrollPlugin from '@ngsctt/swup-preserve-scroll-plugin';

or included from the dist folder

<script src="./dist/SwupPreserveScrollPlugin.js"></script>

Usage

To run this plugin, include an instance in the swup options:

const swup = new Swup({
  plugins: [new SwupPreserveScrollPlugin()]
});

To customise the options, pass an object to the plugin:

const options = {
  selector: '.swup-preserve-scroll',
  quiet: false
};
const swup = new Swup({
  plugins: [new SwupPreserveScrollPlugin(options)]
});

Options

options.selector: The query selector used to get the elements on the page which the plugin will replace. Defaults to '.swup-preserve-scroll'.

options.quiet: If set to true, suppresses warnings about missing id attributes, or about no elements on the page matching options.selector. Defaults to false.

Important note

Each element that matches options.selector MUST have an id attribute set in order for the plugin to work on that element. If it doesn't, the plugin will throw a warning (unless options.quiet is set to true).
