Normalize Scroll Left for Right-to-Left

This library normalizes the Element.scrollLeft property when direction is rtl.

All the hardwork are based on this juqery plugin and this stackoverflow answer.

Since Element.scrollLeft's behavior with dir="rtl" is not defined in any spec we use a feature detection logic to determine the behavior of the current browser.

Types of scrollLeft (scrollWidth = 100) (Copied from here)

Browser	Type	Most Left	Most Right	Initial
WebKit	default	0	100	100
Firefox/Opera	negative	-100	0	0
IE/Edge	reverse	100	0	0

Installation

You can install this package with the following command:

npm install normalize-scroll-left

API

This library exposes these methods:

detectScrollType

type ScrollType = 'indeterminate' | 'default' | 'negative' | 'reverse';
function detectScrollType(): ScrollType;

This function returns the scroll type detected, Keep in mind, this function caches the result as it should render a dummy on the DOM (which is expensive). Make sure the first invocation of this function happens after the body is loaded.

note: To support server-side-rendering, it will output indeterminate if it detects a non-browser environment.

import { detectScrollType } from 'normalize-scroll-left';

const type = detectScrollType();

The output is not based on the browser, but feature detection:

Browser	Type
WebKit	default
Firefox/Opera	negative
IE/Edge	reverse
Other/Server	indeterminate

getNormalizedScrollLeft

function getNormalizedScrollLeft(element: HTMLElement, direction: 'rtl' | 'ltr'): number;

You can use this method to get the normalized scrollLeft property of an element. You should explicitly pass the direction for the following reasons:

1. Querying the getComputedStyle is expensive and might cause a reflow.
2. The behavior shouldn't be changed when direction is ltr.

The output is NaN on the server. Otherwise, it will mimic the behavior of WebKit as it's the esiest to work with.

import { getNormalizedScrollLeft } from 'normalize-scroll-left';

const element = document.getElementById('my-scrollable-container');

// element.scrollWidth = 100;

const scrollLeft = getNormalizedScrollLeft(element, 'rtl');

// scrollLeft will always be from 0 (Most Left) to 100 (Most Right).
// It will initially be 100, That means the most right.

setNormalizedScrollLeft

function setNormalizedScrollLeft(
  element: HTMLElement,
  scrollLeft: number,
  direction: 'rtl' | 'ltr',
): void;

You can use this method to set the scrollLeft property of an element as normalized. You should explicitly pass the direction for the same reasons as getNormalizedScrollLeft:

For scrollWidth = 100 the argument scrollLeft must be between 0 and 100. This function will automatically convert it into something the current browser understands.

import { setNormalizedScrollLeft } from 'normalize-scroll-left';

const element = document.getElementById('my-scrollable-container');

// element.scrollWidth = 100, element.clientWidth = 20;

setNormalizedScrollLeft(element, 20, 'rtl');

// Will set element.scrollLeft to ...
//  20 in WebKit (chrome)
//  -60 in Firefox/Opera
//  60 in IE/Edge
// Does nothing on the server

Typings
