# Angular Infinite Scroll
versions now follow Angular's version to easily reflect compatibility.
Meaning, for **Angular 10**, use `ngx-infinite-scroll @ ^10.0.0`
## Angular - Older Versions Support
Starting **Angular 6 and Above** - `ngx-infinite-scroll@THE_VERSION.0.0`
For **Angular 4** and **Angular = ^5.5.6** - use version `ngx-infinite-scroll@0.8.4`
For **Angular 5.x** with **rxjs =<5.5.2** - use version `ngx-infinite-scroll@0.8.3`
For Angular version **<= 2.3.1**, you can use `npm i angular2-infinite-scroll` (latest version is 0.3.42) - please notice **the angular2-infinite-scroll** package is deprecated

## Supported API
### Properties
| @Input() | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| ------------------------ | -------------------- | -------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| infiniteScrollDistance | number | optional | 2 | the bottom percentage point of the scroll nob relatively to the infinite-scroll container (i.e, 2 (2 \* 10 = 20%) is event is triggered when 80% (100% - 20%) has been scrolled). if container.height is 900px, when the container is scrolled to or past the 720px, it will fire the scrolled event. |
| infiniteScrollUpDistance | number | optional | 1.5 | should get a number |
| infiniteScrollThrottle | number | optional | 150 | should get a number of **milliseconds** for throttle. The event will be triggered this many milliseconds after the user _stops_ scrolling. |
| scrollWindow | boolean | optional | true | listens to the window scroll instead of the actual element scroll. this allows to invoke a callback function in the scope of the element while listenning to the window scroll. |
| immediateCheck | boolean | optional | false | invokes the handler immediately to check if a scroll event has been already triggred when the page has been loaded (i.e. - when you refresh a page that has been scrolled) |
| infiniteScrollDisabled | boolean | optional | false | doesn't invoke the handler if set to true |
| horizontal | boolean | optional | false | sets the scroll to listen for horizontal events |
| alwaysCallback | boolean | optional | false | instructs the scroller to always trigger events |
| infiniteScrollContainer | string / HTMLElement | optional | null | should get a html element or css selector for a scrollable element; window or current element will be used if this attribute is empty. |
| fromRoot | boolean | optional | false | if **infiniteScrollContainer** is set, this instructs the scroller to query the container selector from the root of the **document** object. |
### Events
| @Output() | Type | Event Type | Required | Description |
| ---------- | ------------ | -------------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| scrolled | EventEmitter | IInfiniteScrollEvent | optional | this will callback if the distance threshold has been reached on a scroll down. |
| scrolledUp | EventEmitter | IInfiniteScrollEvent | optional | this will callback if the distance threshold has been reached on a scroll up. |
## Behavior
By default, the directive listens to the **window scroll** event and invoked the callback.
**To trigger the callback when the actual element is scrolled**, these settings should be configured:
- [scrollWindow]="false"
- set an explict css "height" value to the element
## DEMO
[Try the Demo in StackBlitz](https://stackblitz.com/edit/ngx-infinite-scroll)
## Usage
First, import the InfiniteScrollModule to your module:
```typescript
import { NgModule } from "@angular/core";
import { BrowserModule } from "@angular/platform-browser";
import { InfiniteScrollModule } from "ngx-infinite-scroll";
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic";
import { AppComponent } from "./app";
@NgModule({
imports: [BrowserModule, InfiniteScrollModule],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
```
In this example, the **onScroll** callback will be invoked when the window is scrolled down:
```typescript
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
@Component({
selector: "app",
template: `
<div
class="search-results"
infiniteScroll
[infiniteScrollDistance]="2"
[infiniteScrollThrottle]="50"
(scrolled)="onScroll()"
></div>
`,
})
export class AppComponent {
onScroll() {
console.log("scrolled!!");
}
}
```
in this example, whenever the "search-results" is scrolled, the callback will be invoked:
```typescript
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
@Component({
selector: "app",
styles: [
`
.search-results {
height: 20rem;
overflow: scroll;
}
`,
],
template: `
<div
class="search-results"
infiniteScroll
[infiniteScrollDistance]="2"
[infiniteScrollThrottle]="50"
(scrolled)="onScroll()"
[scrollWindow]="false"
></div>
`,
})
export class AppComponent {
onScroll() {
console.log("scrolled!!");
}
}
```
In this example, the **onScrollDown** callback will be invoked when the window is scrolled down and the **onScrollUp** callback will be invoked when the window is scrolled up:
```typescript
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
import { InfiniteScroll } from "ngx-infinite-scroll";
@Component({
selector: "app",
directives: [InfiniteScroll],
template: `
<div
class="search-results"
infiniteScroll
[infiniteScrollDistance]="2"
[infiniteScrollUpDistance]="1.5"
[infiniteScrollThrottle]="50"
(scrolled)="onScrollDown()"
(scrolledUp)="onScrollUp()"
></div>
`,
})
export class AppComponent {
onScrollDown() {
console.log("scrolled down!!");
}
onScrollUp() {
console.log("scrolled up!!");
}
}
```
In this example, the **infiniteScrollContainer** attribute is used to point directive to the scrollable container using a css selector. **fromRoot** is used to determine whether the scroll container has to be searched within the whole document (`[fromRoot]="true"`) or just inside the **infiniteScroll** directive (`[fromRoot]="false"`, default option).
```typescript
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
@Component({
selector: "app",
styles: [
`
.main-panel {
height: 100px;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
`,
],
template: `
<div class="main-panel">
<div
infiniteScroll
[infiniteScrollDistance]="2"
[infiniteScrollThrottle]="50"
[infiniteScrollContainer]="selector"
[fromRoot]="true"
(scrolled)="onScroll()"
></div>
</div>
`,
})
export class AppComponent {
selector: string = ".main-panel";
onScroll() {
console.log("scrolled!!");
}
}
```
It is also possible to use **infiniteScrollContainer** without additional variable by using single quotes inside double quotes:
```
[infiniteScrollContainer]="'.main-panel'"
```
