Angular Perfect Scrollbar

This is an Angular wrapper library for the Perfect Scrollbar. To use this library you should get familiar with the Perfect Scrollbar documentation as well, this documentation only explains details specific to this wrapper.

See a live example application here.

Library building

npm install
npm run build
npm run inline

Library development

npm link
cd example
npm link ngx-perfect-scrollbar

Running the example

cd example
npm install
npm start

(or 'npm run start:sjs' for using SystemJS)

Installing and usage

npm install ngx-perfect-scrollbar --save

Load the module for your app (with global configuration):

import { PerfectScrollbarModule } from 'ngx-perfect-scrollbar';
import { PerfectScrollbarConfigInterface } from 'ngx-perfect-scrollbar';

const PERFECT_SCROLLBAR_CONFIG: PerfectScrollbarConfigInterface = {
  suppressScrollX: true
};

@NgModule({
  ...
  imports: [
    ...
    PerfectScrollbarModule.forRoot(PERFECT_SCROLLBAR_CONFIG)
  ]
})

Use it in your HTML template (with custom configuration):

This library provides two ways to create a Perfect Scrollbar element, a component and a directive. Component tries to make the usage as simple as possible and the directive is meant for more custom / advanced usages. The scroll area always needs some fixed height to work. The default styles uses 100% as the height value so the parent needs to have fixed height or you need to set it via CSS styles. Otherwise the height keeps growing and you won't get the scrollbars.

COMPONENT USAGE

Simply replace the element that would ordinarily be passed to Ps.initialize with the perfect-scollbar component.

<perfect-scrollbar class="container" [config]="config">
  <div class="content">Scrollable content</div>
</perfect-scrollbar>

[config]                // Custom config to override the global defaults.

[disabled]              // Disables the perfect scrollbar initialization.

[usePSClass]            // Use ps class (needed by the ps theme styles).

[autoPropagation]       // Automatic swipe and wheel propagation control.
[scrollIndicators]      // Enable fading edges scroll indicators showing.

(<ps-event-name>)       // All perfect scrollbar events work as bindings.

DIRECTIVE USAGE

When using only the directive you need to provide your own theming or import the default theme:

@import '~perfect-scrollbar/css/perfect-scrollbar.css';

Perfect scrollbar directive should be used with div elements and can take optional custom configuration:

<div [perfect-scrollbar]="config"></div>

[perfect-scrollbar]     // Can be used to provide optional custom config.

[disabled]              // Disables the perfect scrollbar initialization.

[usePSClass]            // Use ps class (needed by the ps theme styles).
[psPosStyle]            // Position style (controls scrollbar placement).

(<ps-event-name>)       // All perfect scrollbar events work as bindings.

Available configuration options (custom / global configuration):

wheelSpeed              // Scroll speed for the mousewheel event (Default: 1).
wheelPropagation        // Propagate wheel events at the end (Default: false).
swipePropagation        // Propagate swipe events at the end (Default: true).
minScrollbarLength      // Minimum size for the scrollbar (Default: null).
maxScrollbarLength      // Maximum size for the scrollbar (Default: null).
useBothWheelAxes        // Always use the both wheel axes (Default: false).
suppressScrollX         // Disable X axis in all situations (Default: false).
suppressScrollY         // Disable Y axis ni all situations (Default: false).
scrollXMarginOffset     // Offset before enabling the X scroller (Default: 0).
scrollYMarginOffset     // Offset before enabling the Y scroller (Default: 0).
stopPropagationOnClick  // Stop the propagation of click event (Default: true).

For more detailed documentation with all the supported events / options see the Perfect Scrollbar documentation.

Available control / helper functions (provided by the directive):

update()                        // Updates the scrollbar size and position.
geometry(property)              // Returns the geometry for specified property.
scrollable(direction)           // Checks if the given direction is scrollable.
                                // Direction can be: 'any','both','x','y'

scrollTo(x, y, speed)           // Animate scroll to given x,y coordinates.
scrollToY(position, speed)      // Animate scroll to given vertical position.
scrollToX(position, speed)      // Animate scroll to given horizontal position.
scrollToTop(offset, speed)      // Animate scroll to given offset from the top.
scrollToLeft(offset, speed)     // Animate scroll to given offset from the left.
scrollToRight(offset, speed)    // Animate scroll to given offset from the right.
scrollToBottom(offset, speed)   // Animate scroll to given offset from the bottom.

Above functions can be accessed through the directive reference (available as directiveRef in the component).
