react-virtual-scroller

<VirtualScroller> is a high performant React component that provides a way to render a large number of elements in a scrollable list without negatively affecting overall UI performance. It achives this by only rendering the elements that are currently visible in its "viewport" and virtualizes elements not currently visible.

Install

The <VirtualScroller> web component can be installed from NPM:

# NPM
npm install @holmberd/react-virtual-scroller

# Yarn
yarn add @holmberd/react-virtual-scroller

Usage

import React from 'react';
import VirtualScroller from './react-virtual-scroller';

const getItemLength = (index) => index % 2 === 0 ? 50 : 100;

const listItems = Array.from(Array(1000).keys()).map((index) => ({
  id: index,
  height: getItemLength(index),
  width: getItemLength(index),
}));

const handleVisibleRangeChange = ({ startIndex, stopIndex, offsetIndex }) => {
  console.log(`Visible range: ${startIndex - offsetIndex} - ${stopIndex + offsetIndex}`);
};

export function VerticalList() {
  return (
    <VirtualScroller
      width={402}
      height={402}
      getItemLength={getItemLength}
      offsetVisibleIndex={2} // Overscan with 2 above & below visible index.
      enableResizeObserver={true}
      onVisibleRangeChange={handleVisibleRangeChange}
    >
      {listItems.map((item) =>
        <div
          key={item.id}
          style={{
            height: item.height,
            borderBottom: '1px solid black',
          }}
        >
          {item.id}
        </div>
      )}
    </VirtualScroller>
  );
}

API

width = 0

Set the width of the VirtualScroller list.

height = 0

Set the height of the VirtualScroller list.

getItemLength = (index: number) => number

Callback function to calculate and return the length(height or width) of each item by index.

offsetVisibleIndex = 0

Number of extra items (overscan) to be rendered before/after the visible range.

layout = 'vertical'

Set whether to use vertical or horizontal layout virtualization.

enableResizeObserver = false

Set wether to update visible item indexes on element resize.

disableVirtualization = false

Set to disable virtualization (the onVisibleRangeChange callback will still be called).

resetOnIndex(index: number = 0, shouldUpdate: boolean = true): void

Rebuilds the items cached scrollOffset index on and after the specified index when called. Useful when the size of an item changes in your list, e.g. expanded/collapsed. By default calling this method will trigger an update, use shouldUpdate to override this behaviour.

scrollToItem(index: number): void

Scrolls to the specified item index when called. (The item aligns to the beginning of the list).

Browser Support

<VirtualScroller> supports es2020 JavaScript features for desktop and mobile browsers and builds upon standard web platform APIs so that the performance, capabilities and compatibility of the library get better as the web evolves.
