React container that will auto scroll to bottom or top if new content is added and viewport is at the bottom, similar to tail -f
. Otherwise, a "jump to bottom" button will be shown to allow user to quickly jump to bottom.

You can use React Hooks to perform various operations and signal state changes. The component which use the hook must stay under <ScrollToBottom>
or <Composer>
.
Category | Name | Type | Description |

Function | useScrollTo |
() => (scrollTop: number | '100%') => void |

Function | useScrollToStart |

Callback function passed to
useObserveScrollPosition
will be called rapidly during scrolling. To unsubscribe, pass a falsy value.
The following sample code will put a button inside the content view only if the view is not at the bottom. When the button is clicked, it will scroll the view to the bottom.
Note:
useScrollToBottom
can only be called inside components hosted under<ScrollToBottom>
.
import ScrollToBottom, { useScrollToBottom, useSticky } from 'react-scroll-to-bottom';
const Content = () => {
const scrollToBottom = useScrollToBottom();
const [sticky] = useSticky();

Starting with React Hooks, we are deprecating the React Context. New functions may not be added to context.
We use 2 different contexts with different performance characteristics to provide better overall performance. Function context contains immutable functions. State context may change when the user scroll the panel.
This context contains functions used to manipulate the container. And will not update throughout the lifetime of the composer.
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
scrollTo |
(scrollTop: number | '100%') => void |
Scroll panel to specified position |
scrollToBottom |
() => void |
Scroll panel to bottom |
scrollToEnd |
() => void |
Scroll panel to end (depends on mode ) |
scrollToStart |
() => void |
Scroll panel to start (depends on mode ) |
scrollToTop |
() => void |
Scroll panel to top |
This context contains state of the container.
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
animating |
boolean |
true if the panel is animating scroll effect |
animatingToEnd |
boolean |
true if the panel is animating scroll effect and towards the end (depends on mode ) |
atBottom |
boolean |
true if the panel is currently near bottom |
atEnd |
boolean |
true if the panel is currently near the end (depends on mode ) |
atStart |
boolean |
true if the panel is currently near the start (depends on mode ) |
atTop |
boolean |
true if the panel is currently near top |
mode |
string |
"bottom" for scroll-to-bottom, "top" for scroll-to-top |
sticky |
boolean |
true if the panel is sticking to the end |
atEnd
andsticky
are slightly different. During scroll animation, the panel is not at the end yet, but it is still sticky.
The following sample code will put a button inside the content view only if the view is not at the bottom. When the button is clicked, it will scroll the view to the bottom.
import ScrollToBottom from 'react-scroll-to-bottom';
const Content = ({ scrollToBottom, sticky }) => {
return (
<React.Fragment>

{!sticky && <button onClick={scrollToBottom}>Click me to scroll to bottom</button>}
</React.Fragment>
);
};
export default () => (
<ScrollToBottom>
<FunctionContext.Consumer>
{({ scrollToBottom }) => (
<StateContext.Consumer>
{({ sticky }) => <Content scrollToBottom={scrollToBottom} sticky={sticky} />}
</StateContext.Consumer>
)}
</FunctionContext.Consumer>
</ScrollToBottom>
);
You can use useObserveScrollPosition
to listen to scroll change.
// This is the content rendered inside the scrollable container
const ScrollContent = () => {
const observer = useCallback(({ scrollTop }) => {
console.log(scrollTop);
}, []);
useObserveScrollPosition(observer);
return <div>Hello, World!</div>;
};
If you want to turn off the hook, in the render call, pass a falsy value, e.g.
useObserveScrollPosition(false)
.
Please note that the observer will called very frequently, it is recommended:
- Only observe the scroll position when needed
- Don't put too much logic inside the callback function
- If logic is needed, consider deferring handling using
setTimeout
or similar functions - Make sure the callback function passed on each render call is memoized appropriately, e.g.
useCallback
For best practices on handling scroll
event, please read this article.
This only works when
mode
prop is set tobottom
(default).
You can pass a function to the scroller
prop to customize how far the scrollable should animate/scroll (in pixel) when its content changed. The signature of the scroller function is:
scroller({ maxValue, minValue, offsetHeight, scrollHeight, scrollTop }) => number;
Argument | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
maxValue |
number |
Maximum distance (in pixel) to scroll |
minValue |
number |
Minimum distance (in pixel) to scroll, see notes below |
offsetHeight |
number |
View height of the scrollable container |
scrollHeight |
number |
Total height of the content in the container, must be equal or greater than offsetHeight |
scrollTop |
number |
Current scroll position (in pixel) |
Note: the scroller
function will get called when the scrollable is sticky and the content size change. If the scrollable is not sticky, the function will not be called as animation is not needed.
When the scrollable is animating, if there are new contents added to the scrollable, the scroller
function will get called again with minValue
set to the current position. The minValue
means how far the animation has already scrolled.
By default, the scroller
function will returns Infinity
. When new content is added, it will scroll all the way to the bottom.
You can return a different value (in number) to indicates how far you want to scroll when the content has changed. If you return 0
, the scrollable will stop scrolling for any new content. Returning any values less than maxValue
will make the scrollable to lose its stickiness after animation. After the scrollable lose its stickiness, the scroller
function will not be called again for any future content change, until the scrollable regains its stickiness.
We support nonce-based Content Security Policy. To enable, the following directive is required:
- Easier customization for "scroll to bottom" button
- Debounce on showing "scroll to bottom" button
- Investigate using
scroll
for scrolling and polyfill IE11
