Package Exports

react-intersection-observer

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-intersection-observer) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Props

The <Observer /> accepts the following props:

Name	Type	Default	Required	Description
tag	String		false	Element tag to use for the wrapping component
children	func/node		false	Children should be either a function or a node
triggerOnce	Bool	false	true	Only trigger this method once
threshold	Number	0	false	Number between 0 and 1 indicating the the percentage that should be visible before triggering
onChange	Func		false	Call this function whenever the in view state changes

Example code

Child as function

The basic usage pass a function as the child. It will be called whenever the state changes, with the new value of inView.

import Observer from 'react-intersection-observer'

<Observer>
  {inView => <h2>{`Header inside viewport ${inView}.`}</h2>}
</Observer>

Render callback

For simple usecases where you wan't to only render a component when it enters view, you can use the render prop.

import Observer from 'react-intersection-observer'

<Observer
  style={{ height: 200, position: 'relative' }}
  render={() => (
    <div
      style={{
        position: 'absolute',
        top: 0,
        bottom: 0,
      }}
    >
      <p>
        {'Make sure that the Observer controls the height, so it does not change change when element is added.'}
      </p>
    </div>
  )}
/>

OnChange callback

You can monitor the onChange method, and control the state in your own component. The child node will always be rendered.

import Observer from 'react-intersection-observer'

<Observer onChange={(inView) => console.log('Inview:', inView)}>
  <h2>
    Plain children are always rendered. Use onChange to monitor state.
  </h2>
</Observer>

Universal rendering

The IntersectionObserver polyfill requires window and document, and will crash if you try to import it outside the browser. To allow the Observer to be rendered universally, it only loads the IntersectionObserver polyfill if window exists.
