vue3-perfect-scrollbar

Vue.js minimalistic but powerful wrapper for perfect scrollbar

Why I Created it ?

Because I ❤️ to use perfect-scrollbar in my projects (🙌 utatti). But also because the current solutions on github are outdated or overcomplicated.

Why would you use it ?

Because you want to load perfect-scrollbar to your Vue project in an easy way. But also because this plugin is updated, tested and build by rollup. So you will not find any unnecessary 💩 code in this repo. I hope 🙏.

If you have any reasonable PR you are welcome 🤘

Install

npm

npm install vue3-perfect-scrollbar

yarn

yarn add vue3-perfect-scrollbar

How to use

Global Registration

import { createApp } from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'
import PerfectScrollbar from 'vue3-perfect-scrollbar'
import 'vue3-perfect-scrollbar/dist/vue3-perfect-scrollbar.css'

const app = createApp(App)
app.use(PerfectScrollbar)
app.mount('#app')

So then you can use this plugin in each component as

<perfect-scrollbar>
    <p> Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. </p>
</perfect-scrollbar>

This plugin will generate a container with ".ps" class name, you need to customize the height of the container

/* example */
.ps {
  height: 400px;
}

Cookbook

Custom scrollbar behavior with router.

One of simple solution to setup custom scrollbar to top when your route is changed.

1. Add perfect scrollbar as wrapper for router-view and add simple ref

<perfect-scrollbar ref="scroll">
  <router-view></router-view>
</perfect-scrollbar>

2. Add watch on $route to setup scroll container to 0, when route is changed.

watch: {
  $route() {
    this.$refs.scroll.$el.scrollTop = 0;
  }
}
