React horizontal scrolling menu

Demo

Demo on Codesandbox

Please help me to test A new version <---

[email protected]

This is a horizontal scrolling menu component for React. Menu component has adaptive width, just set width for parent container. Items width will be determined from CSS styles.

Note: I don't have much time for project support. Any help is appreciated.

For navigation, you can use arrows, mouse wheel or just drag items.

Component return items position, selected item, and click event from callbacks.

Possible set default position and selected item on initialization.

⭐ if you like the project :)

Quick start

npm install --save react-horizontal-scrolling-menu

In project:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import ScrollMenu from 'react-horizontal-scrolling-menu';
import './App.css';

// list of items
const list = [
  { name: 'item1' },
  { name: 'item2' },
  { name: 'item3' },
  { name: 'item4' },
  { name: 'item5' },
  { name: 'item6' },
  { name: 'item7' },
  { name: 'item8' },
  { name: 'item9' }
];

// One item component
// selected prop will be passed
const MenuItem = ({text, selected}) => {
  return <div
    className={`menu-item ${selected ? 'active' : ''}`}
    >{text}</div>;
};

// All items component
// Important! add unique key
export const Menu = (list, selected) =>
  list.map(el => {
    const {name} = el;

    return <MenuItem text={name} key={name} selected={selected} />;
  });


const Arrow = ({ text, className }) => {
  return (
    <div
      className={className}
    >{text}</div>
  );
};


const ArrowLeft = Arrow({ text: '<', className: 'arrow-prev' });
const ArrowRight = Arrow({ text: '>', className: 'arrow-next' });

const selected = 'item1';

class App extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    // call it again if items count changes
    this.menuItems = Menu(list, selected);
  }

  state = {
    selected
  };

  onSelect = key => {
    this.setState({ selected: key });
  }


  render() {
    const { selected } = this.state;
    // Create menu from items
    const menu = this.menuItems;

    return (
      <div className="App">
        <ScrollMenu
          data={menu}
          arrowLeft={ArrowLeft}
          arrowRight={ArrowRight}
          selected={selected}
          onSelect={this.onSelect}
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

In App.css

.menu-item {
  padding: 0 40px;
  margin: 5px 10px;
  user-select: none;
  cursor: pointer;
  border: none;
}
.menu-item-wrapper.active {
  border: 1px blue solid;
}
.menu-item.active {
  border: 1px green solid;
}

.scroll-menu-arrow {
  padding: 20px;
  cursor: pointer;
}

Programmaticaly change things

You can scroll left/right via componentRef.handleArrowClick() and componentRef.handleArrowClickRight() functions.

Can get other properties in component state - const { leftArrowVisible, rightArrowVisible, selected, translate } = componentRef.state

Can simulate click with componentRef.onItemClick('item4')

Can select and scroll to item with componentRef.scrollTo('item14')

Gotchas

• Menu items must have width. If items contain images and images are not loaded yet it can be a problem. Generally component will try to determine the width of items, if it can't you can assign ref to component and call $ref.setInitial() manually when items have the width for sure.
• Browser must support requestAnimationFrame or use polyfill.
• It may not work in IE. (if you need it you can make a PR, I will merge)
