        super(...args)
        this.watchedRef = createRef()

        return (
          <ScrollWatcher watch={this.watchedRef}>
            <div ref={this.watchedRef}>

                {this.props.children}
              </SomeOtherComponent>
            </div>
          </ScrollWatcher>
        )
      }
    }

    class SomeOtherComponent extends Component{
      static contextType = ScrollWatcherCTX

      constructor(...args){
        super(...args)
      }

      render(){
        console.dir(this.context)

        return (
          <span>
            {this.props.children}
          </span>
        )
      }
    }

watching a node inside another scrollable node

Only supports one level of nesting.

example 5

    import React, {useRef} from "react"
    import ScrollWatcher from "@grid23/react-scrollwatcher"

    function SomeComponent({children}){
      const scrollableRef = useRef()
      const watchedRef = useRef()
      const onOffsetChange = (matrix) =>
        console.dir(matrix)

      return (
        <ScrollWatcher watch={watchedRef} inside={scrollableRef} onOffsetChange={onOffsetChange}>
          <div ref={scrollableRef}>
            <div ref={watchedRef}>
              {children}
            </div>
          </div>
        </ScrollWatcher>
      )
    }

scrollwatcher matrix

When the watched node is not visible, matrix is undefined, otherwise it is an object with the following properties:

coverage:Number 0-1 % of the node visible inside the viewport

coverageX:Number 0-1 % of the node visible in the viewport on the horizontal plane

coverageY:Number 0-1 % of the node visible in the viewport on the vertical plane

deltaX:Number the distance in pixels the node moved since the last matrix update on the horizontal plane

deltaY:Number the distance in pixels the node moved since the last matrix update on the vertical plane

dir:String dir setting

direction:bitmask direction(s) the node is moving relative to the scroll, in bitmask format ( see directions )

offsetX:Number distance in pixels from the left side of the viewport to the left side of node (negative: the left side of the node is outside the viewport)

offsetY:Number distance in pixels from the top side of the viewport to the top of the node (negative: the top side of the node is outside the viewport)

overflowX:Number distance in pixels from the right side of the viewport to the right side of the node (negative: the right side of the node is inside the viewport)

overflowY:Number distance in pixels from the bottom side of the viewport to the bottom side of the node (negative: the bottom side of the node is inside the viewport)

progressX:Number 0,1 by default, or with dir=ltr, % representing the distance travelled by the node towards the point when the right side of the node has reached the left side of the viewport; with dir=rtl, % representing the distance travelled by the node towards the point when the left side of the node has reached the right side of the viewport (see dir)

progressY:Number 0,1 % representing the distance travelled by the node towards the point when the bottom side of the node has reached the top side of the viewport

visibility:Boolean always true when reading the matrix object

height:Number node.clientHeight

contentHeight:Number node.scrollHeight

visibleHeight:Number absolute value in pixels of how much of the node is visible on the vertical plane

width:Number node.clientWidth

contentWidth:Number node.scrollWidth

visibleWidth:Number absolute value in pixels of how much of the node is visible on the horizontal plane

dir

You can invert the progressX logic by passing dir=rtl

    <ScrollWatcher dir="rtl" watch={someRef}>
      {children}
    </ScrollWatcher>

directions

The directions towards which the node is moving relative to the scroll of the window are given in a bitmask format.

    import ScrollWatcher, {directions} from "@grid23/react-scrollwatcher"

    function onOffsetChange(matrix){
      matrix.direction & directions.UP
      matrix.direction & directions.DOWN
      matrix.direction & directions.LEFT
      matrix.direction & directions.RIGHT
      matrix.direction & (directions.UP^direction.LEFT)
      matrix.direction & (directions.UP^direction.RIGHT)
      matrix.direction & (directions.DOWN^direction.LEFT)
      matrix.direction & (directions.DOWN^direction.RIGHT)
    }

notes

The position of the watched node is computed at:

• DOM events:
  • focus
  • orientationchange
  • resize
  • scroll
• DOM Mutations
• watcher creation.

Listeners are only active when at least one node is being actively watched.
