A small, modern, dependency-free smooth scrolling library.
- Demo Page (Click the arrows!)
Jump was developed with a modern JavaScript workflow in mind. To use it, it's recommended you have a build system in place that can transpile ES6, and bundle modules. For a minimal boilerplate that fulfills those requirements, check out outset.
Follow these steps to get started:
Using NPM, install Jump, and save it to your package.json
dependencies.
$ npm install jump.js --save
Import Jump, naming it according to your preference.
// import Jump
import { jump } from 'jump.js'
Jump exports a singleton, so there's no need to create an instance. Just call it, passing a target.
// call Jump, passing a target
jump('.target')
Note that the singleton can make an infinite number of jumps.
All options, except target, are optional, and have sensible defaults. The defaults are shown below:
jump('.target', {
duration: 1000,
offset: 0,
callback: undefined,
easing: easeInOutQuad,
a11y: false
})
Explanation of each option follows:
Scroll from the current position by passing a number of pixels when absolute
equal to false
(default).
// scroll down 100px
jump(100)
// scroll up 100px
jump(-100)
Or, scroll to an element, by passing either:
- a node, or
- a CSS selector
// passing a node
const node = document.querySelector('.target')
jump(node)
// passing a CSS selector
// the element referenced by the selector is determined using document.querySelector
jump('.target')
If true
, the number passed in target
is interpreted in absolute terms.
// Scroll to the very top
jump(0, {absolute : true});
Pass the time the jump()
takes, in milliseconds.
jump('.target', {
duration: 1000
})
Or, pass a function that returns the duration of the jump()
in milliseconds. This function is passed the jump()
distance
, in px
, as a parameter.
jump('.target', {
duration: distance => Math.abs(distance)
})
Offset a jump()
, only if to an element, by a number of pixels.
// stop 10px before the top of the element
jump('.target', {
offset: -10
})
// stop 10px after the top of the element
jump('.target', {
offset: 10
})
Note that this option is useful for accommodating position: fixed
elements.
Pass a function that will be called after the jump()
has been completed.
// in both regular and arrow functions, this === window
jump('.target', {
callback: () => console.log('Jump completed!')
})
Easing function used to transition the jump()
.
function step(a,b,c,d) { return b + c }
jump('.target', {
easing: step; // step function, scroll immediately to the location
})
See easing.js for the definition of easeInOutQuad
, the default easing function. Credit for this function goes to Robert Penner.
If enabled, and scrolling to an element:
jump('.target', {
a11y: true
})
Note that this option is disabled by default because it has visual implications in many browsers. Focusing an element triggers the :focus
CSS state selector, and is often accompanied by an outline
.
A way to cancel the scrolling.
var cancel = jump('.target', {
container: '.scrollable-div'
})
setTimeout(function(){
cancel();
}, 500;)
A way to know if it is currently scrolling.
// import Jump
import { jump, isJumping } from 'jump.js'
jump('.target', {
offset: -10
})
setInterval(function(){
if (isJumping()) console.log('It is scrolling!');
}, 50);
If you need to scroll more than one thing at the time
// import Jump
import { Jump } from 'jump.js'
j1 = Jump();
j2 = Jump();
var cancel1 = j1.jump('.target', {
container: '.container1'
duration: 2000
})
var cancel2 = j2.jump('.target2', {
container: '.container2'
duration: 500
})
setInterval(function(){
if (j1.isJumping()) console.log('J1 is scrolling!');
if (j2.isJumping()) console.log('J2 is scrolling!');
}, 50);
Jump depends on the following browser APIs:
Consequently, it supports the following natively:
- Chrome 24+
- Firefox 23+
- Safari 6.1+
- Opera 15+
- IE 10+
- iOS Safari 7.1+
- Android Browser 4.4+
To add support for older browsers, consider including polyfills/shims for the APIs listed above. There are no plans to include any in the library, in the interest of file size.
