react-threshold

React component for threshold library. Allows to wrap components and receive props about the visible area and trajectory across the viewport.

Great for scroll based updates and stateful parallax animations.

Run npm install react-threshold --save to add to your project.

Use

Imagine a component that could use its relative scroll position or visible area to render some specific content or change style properties.

import React from 'react';
import ReactThreshold from 'react-threshold';
 
class TestComponent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }
 
  render() {
    const { area } = this.props;
    const styles = {
      opacity: area
    }
 
    return (
      <div
        className="test-element"
        style={ styles }
      />
    );
  }
}
 
class WrappedComponent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }
 
  render() {
    return (
      <ReactThreshold>
        <TestComponent />
      </ReactThreshold>
    );
  }
}

TestComponent will receive an area prop and a trajectory object with x for horizontal and y for vertical scroll progression. To know more about how these properties work go to threshold README file since all of them are calculated by this script.

Controlled updates

One nice thing about this component is that when its child is out of the viewport it will prevent updates to save performance. If you need to change this behavior you can pass forceUpdate={ true } to ReactThreshold wrapper component.

If you need to gather inner threshold data you can pass a onUpdate prop method to ReactThreshold.

Demo

Clone this repo, install dependencies and run npm test to get a working demo for this component.

TODO

  • Add tests
  • Allow multiple children rendering
  • Create demo page with stateful parallax animations.
