WindowScroller

High-order component that enables a Table or List component to be scrolled based on the window's scroll positions. This can be used to create layouts similar to Facebook or Twitter news feeds.

Note that this HOC does not currently work with a horizontally-scrolling Grid as horizontal scrolls reset the internal scrollTop. This may change with a future release but for the time being this HOC is should be used with Table or List only.

Prop Types

Property	Type	Required?	Description
children	Function	✓	Function responsible for rendering children. This function should implement the following signature: ({ height: number, width: number, isScrolling: boolean, scrollTop: number, onChildScroll: function }) => PropTypes.element
onResize	Function		Callback to be invoked on-resize; it is passed the following named parameters: ({ height: number, width: number }).
onScroll	Function		Callback to be invoked on-scroll; it is passed the following named parameters: ({ scrollTop: number, scrollLeft: number }).
scrollElement	any		Element to attach scroll event listeners. Defaults to window.
scrollingResetTimeInterval	Number		Wait this amount of time after the last scroll event before resetting WindowScroller pointer-events; defaults to 150ms.

Public Methods

updatePosition

Recalculates scroll position from the top of page.

This method is automatically triggered when the component mounts as well as when the browser resizes. It should be manually called if the page header (eg any items in the DOM "above" the WindowScroller) resizes or changes.

Examples

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { List, WindowScroller } from 'react-virtualized';
import 'react-virtualized/styles.css'; // only needs to be imported once

ReactDOM.render(
  <WindowScroller>
    {({ height, isScrolling, onChildScroll, scrollTop }) => (
      <List
        autoHeight
        height={height}
        isScrolling={isScrolling}
        onScroll={onChildScroll}
        rowCount={...}
        rowHeight={...}
        rowRenderer={...}
        scrollTop={scrollTop}
        width={...}
      />
    )}
  </WindowScroller>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);
