Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Usage

import { 
  scrollToSmooth, 
  easeOutCubic 
} from 'scrolltosmooth';

let smoothScroll = new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  targetAttribute: 'href',
  duration: 400,
  durationRelative: false,
  durationMin: false,

smoothScroll.init();

API

Smooth scroll Options

container

Type: string|element
Default: document

Specify a container element that contains the targets of the current initialization.

targetAttribute

Type: string
Default: 'href'

The attribute to determine the target element. Must be a valid selector!
You may use other attributes than href like for example data-scrollto so that the browsers default behaviour for anchor links does not change.

<span data-scrollto="#target">Scroll to Section 1<span>
<section id="target">
  Target Section
</section>

offset

Type: string|element|number
Default: null

Specify an element or a number to calculate the final position of the scrolling animation with offset to top.
Example: '#fixed-header'

Notice: You can also pass a numeric value for the offset option.

topOnEmptyHash

Type: boolean
default: true

If your targetAttribute contains an empty hash (#) on a href attribute force scroll to top.

duration

Type: number
Default: 400

Scroll animation duration in milliseconds.

durationRelative

Type: boolean|number
Default: false

durationRelative can be used to adjust the scroll animation duration by the amount of pixels to scroll.
If true scrollToSmooth will use the value of duration to calculate the amount of time in milliseconds to scroll the page by 1000px.
You can also use a number, for example 2000 to calculate the duration by 2000px.

Scroll distances that are below that number will take less time than defined in duration, while distances above will take longer to animate.

durationMin

Type: number
Default: null

durationMin represents the minimum amount of milliseconds to perform the animation when using a relative duration.

durationMax

Type: number
Default: null

just like durationMin, durationMax represents the maximum amount of milliseconds to perform the animation when using a relative duration.

easing

Type: string|function
Default: null

ScrollToSmooth comes with 31 predefined easing patterns.
By default scrollToSmooth is bundled with the linear easing type.

Linear easings output progress value is equal to the input progress value

  • linear

Ease-In progress value gradually increases in speed

  • easeInQuad
  • easeInCubic
  • easeInQuart
  • easeInQuint
  • easeInSine
  • easeInExpo
  • easeInCirc
  • easeInElastic
  • easeInBack
  • easeInBounce

Ease-Out progress value gradually decreases in speed

  • easeOutQuad
  • easeOutCubic
  • easeOutQuart
  • easeOutQuint
  • easeOutSine
  • easeOutExpo
  • easeOutCirc
  • easeOutElastic
  • easeOutBack
  • easeOutBounce

Ease-In-Out progress value increases in speed and slows down back afterwards

  • easeInOutQuad
  • easeInOutCubic
  • easeInOutQuart
  • easeInOutQuint
  • easeInOutSine
  • easeInOutExpo
  • easeInOutCirc
  • easeInOutElastic
  • easeInOutBack
  • easeInOutBounce
How can I import individual easings?

Every easing bundled with ScrollToSmooth can be imported individually by

import { easingName } from 'scrolltosmooth';
new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  easing: easingName,
  ...
});
Can I use easing functions from another library?

You can import other easing functions and use it with ScrollToSmooth.
The only requirement is that the method must take only one parameter representing the absolute progress of the animation in the bounds of 0 (beginning of the animation) and 1 (end of animation).

Example:

import { cubic } from 'js-easing-library';
new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  easing: cubic,
  ...
});

You can also write your own easing functions:

Example:

new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  easing: (t) => t * t, // easeInQuad
  ...
});

onScrollStart

Type: function
Default: null

Callback function to be executed when the scrolling animation has started.

onScrollUpdate

Type: function
Default: null

Callback function to be executed while the scrolling animation runs.

onScrollEnd

Type: function
Default: null

Callback function to be executed when the scrolling animation has finished.

Methods

After creating a new instance of scrollToSmooth

let smoothScroll = new scrollToSmooth(document.querySelector('.scrollToSmooth-link'));

You can use the following public methods to interact with it:

init:

Initialize

smoothScroll.init();

scrollTo:

You can use the scrollTo method to animate the scrolling to a specific element on the page:

smoothScroll.scrollTo('.your-selector');
// OR
smoothScroll.scrollTo(document.querySelector('.your-selector'));

scrollTo can be also used with a numeric value.

Example:

smoothScroll.scrollTo(50);

scrollBy

scrollBy can be used just like scrollTo to trigger a scroll animation.
The only difference is you don't need a target element. Instead you can scroll by a fixed amount of pixels that gets added to the current scrollY.

smoothScroll.scrollBy(150);

cancelScroll:

while the animation is running you can call cancelScroll whenever you want to stop it immediately

smoothScroll.cancelScroll();

update:

Update the settings after initialization.

smoothScroll.update({
  duration: 1000,
  fixedHeader: '#my-header-element'
});

destroy:

Destroy the current instance of scrollToSmooth. You can then reinitialize the instance with the init method.

smoothScroll.destroy();

Callbacks

onScrollStart:

new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  onScrollStart: (data) => {  },
  ...
});

data contains an object with values for startPosition and endPosition

onScrollUpdate:

new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  onScrollUpdate: (data) => {  },
  ...
});

data contains an object with values for startPosition, currentPosition and endPosition

onScrollEnd:

new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  onScrollEnd: (data) => {  },
  ...
});

data contains an object with values for startPosition and endPosition

Custom Events

TODO: custom events section

Noteworthy features

Animating from the very top or bottom with special easings

ScrollToSmooth adds custom elements to the top and bottom of the page. These elements will simulate expanded boundaries of your document while the scroll animation is running. That means the animation wont stop on the bottom of your page when the easing function would normally exceed the documents height.

Working with fixed Headers

If your page has a fixed header scrollToSmooth can use this element and add an offset before each section.
This ensures that the final scroll position does not cover any elements that should normally be visible.

Usage:

<div id="fixed-header">
  <img src="path/to/your/logo.svg" />
</div>
new scrollToSmooth('a', {
  ...
  offset: '#fixed-header',
  // or
  offset: document.getElementById('fixed-header'),
  ...
});

Custom scroll triggers

You don't need real links to animate scrolling using ScrollToSmooth.
For example, if you want to use span tags as animation triggers you could do it like:

<nav>
  <span data-scrollto="#section-1">Scroll to section 1</span>
  <span data-scrollto="#section-2">Scroll to section 2</span>
</nav>
<section id="section-1"></section>
<section id="section-2"></section>
new scrollToSmooth('[data-scrollto]');

You can also define custom scroll triggers for specific events.
For example if you want to scroll down the page for 100px when clicking the spacebar:

const scrolltosmooth = new scrollToSmooth('a');

document.addEventListener('keyup', event => {
  if (event.keyCode === 32) {
    scrolltosmooth.scrollBy(100);
  }
})

Accessibility (a11y)

ScrollToSmooth automatically handles focus management after scrolling to an element so that the normal keyboard navigation won't get interrupted.
