vue-sticky-scroll v0.1.0

vue-sticky-scroll

a vue.js directive that keeps an element scrolled to the bottom

vue-sticky-scroll keeps an eye on your element and whenever content is added inside of it, it scrolls down so that the viewer can remain focused on the newest content!

install / include

NPM:

npm i --save vue-sticky-scroll

Require it in your vue.js component file:

// ES5
var stickyScroll = require('vue-sticky-scroll');
// ES6
import 'vue-sticky-scroll';

CDN:

Include it in your main html file:

<script src='https://cdn.rawgit.com/heatherbooker/vue-sticky-scroll/master/stickyScroll.js'></script>

usage instructions

Add v-sticky-scroll as an attribute on the element you wish to always scroll to the bottom of:

<div class='i-wish-this-would-scroll' v-sticky-scroll></div>

options: animate

the scrolling will jump to the bottom by default.
if you prefer a smooth scroll, add:

• argument 'animate'
• optional: expression (default is 300)

<div class='i-wish-this-would-scroll' v-sticky-scroll:animate></div>

<div class='i-wish-this-would-scroll' v-sticky-scroll:animate=500></div>

how it works

vue-sticky-scroll uses a wonderful, highly underrated browser feature: mutation observers. By creating a new MutationObserver and telling it which events to .observe(), you can do wonderful things!
This method is much simpler than some implementations of sticky scrolling that use requestAnimationFrame.
