Is this addon still needed in Ember 2.13?

[bcardarella]

I recommended https://github.com/ef4/memory-scroll

I am asking myself the same question. Seems it is in ember, but need to be enabled somehow. How?

Yes, this addon is still needed. The RFC to Ember simply made this addons job a tad bit easier (and allowed it to rely on only public APIs). Specifically, I believe that step 3 in the usage instructions on the README is no longer needed with Ember 2.13.

@bcardarella and/or @briangonzalez can y'all confirm?

[bcardarella]

The Location can be deprecated but the Service is still necesarry

[bcardarella]

and the router mixin is still necessary

[maxscott]

Using version 0.2.0 and ember 2.13.3, I can't get this working at all yet.

I ember install'ed, Router mixin'ed, and (progressively, to test) added the two environment.js lines. To no avail, not sure if I'm just missing something--will try to post example repo later if I can't sort it out.

@rwjblue I believe 2.14 is when the feature flag drops. It is still there for 2.13: https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/blob/v2.13.3/packages/ember-routing/lib/location/history_location.js#L19

[maxscott]

That makes sense, I got thrown by the "until released in 2.13" bit. Referring to ember-source, I can't use the feature flags, but when I bump to "ember-source": "2.14.0-beta.3", I'm still not getting any results. Do the story/instructions change in 2.14?

[bcardarella]

The only difference that should be necessary in 2.14 will be not having to change your location type in config/environment.js

[maxscott]

Gotcha. Still nada when I go back to auto, but I'm gonna assume I have some environmental issue going on and try this on a new app before I continue to pester here. Thanks for the heads up(s) 👍

[rwjblue]

@bcardarella - I didn't strip the conditional in the source until later, but the feature is enabled in 2.13.

Re: @maxwerr's issue. I just SH'd with him and there appears to be something else at play. The window.scrollY value never changes. I suspect the scrolling is within a container div with an overflow allowed and not changing the actual window height. This won't work with ember-router-scroll

@bcardarella @rwjblue

If I understand correctly, this repo should be fixed up with?

• Keep service and mixin
• Remove location
• Major version bump
• Fix tests

[bcardarella]

@briangonzalez I would recommend a deprecation in the location for the time being that detects the Ember version. >= 2.13 display deprecation that recommends keeping the location as auto or history. This way upgrades won't break.

[bcardarella]

Post major version bump location can be dropped

[briangonzalez]

Thoughts on publishing them in tandem? This addon is currently at 0.2.0

• 0.2.0 -> 0.3.0 deprecation warning for location
• 0.2.0 -> 1.0.0 location removed

[bcardarella]

Seems good to me!
