infinite-scroll jquery plugin

I am trying to set up infinite-scroll on a site I am developing with Coldfusion, I am new to javascr开发者_如何学Goipt and jquery so I am having some issues wrapping my head around all of this. Do I need to have pagination on my site in order to use the infinite-scroll plugin, or is there a way to do it with out it?

You do not need infinite scroll plug-in for this. To detect when scroll reaches end of page, with jQuery you can do

$(window).scroll(function () { 
   if ($(window).scrollTop() >= $(document).height() - $(window).height() - 10) {
      //Add something at the end of the page
   }
});

Demo on JsFiddle

I'm using Hussein's answer with AJAX requests. I modified the code to trigger at 300px instead of 10px, but it started causing my appends to multiply before the AJAX request was finished since the scroll call triggers much more frequently in a 300px range than a 10px range.

To fix this, I added a trigger that would be flipped on successful AJAX load. My code looks more like this:

var scrollLoad = true;

$(window).scroll(function () { 
  if (scrollLoad && $(window).scrollTop() >= $(document).height() - $(window).height() - 300) {
    scrollLoad = false;
    //Add something at the end of the page
  }
});

then in my AJAX response, I set scrollLoad to true.

I built on top of Hussein's little example here to make a jQuery widget. It supports localStorage to temporarily save appended results and it has pause functionality to stop the appending every so often, requiring a click to continue.

Give it a try:

http://www.hawkee.com/snippet/9445/

$(function(){ 
    $(window).scroll(function(){
           if($(document).height()<=$(window).scrollTop()+$(window).height()+100){
               alert('end of page');
           }
       });
});

Some one asked for explanation so here is the explanation

here $(document).height()-->is the height of the entire document.In most cases, this is equal to the element of the current document.

$(window).height()-->is the height of the window (browser) means height of whatever you are seeing on browser.

$(window).scrollTop()-->The Element.scrollTop property gets or sets the number of pixels that the content of an element is scrolled upward. An element's scrollTop is a measurement of the distance of an element's top to its topmost visible content. When an element content does not generate a vertical scrollbar, then its scrollTop value defaults to 0.

$(document).height()<=$(window).scrollTop()+$(window).height()+100

add $(window).scrollTop() with $(window).height() now check whether the result is equal to your documnet height or not. if it is equal means you reached at the end.we are adding 100 too because i want to check before the 100 pixels from the bottom of document(note <= in condition)

please correct me if i am wrong

I had same problem but didn't find suitable plugin for my need. so I wrote following code. this code appends template to element by getting data with ajax and pagination. for detecting when user scrolls to bottom of div I used this condition:

var t = $("#infiniteContent").offset().top;
var h = $("#infiniteContent").height();
var ws = $(window).scrollTop();
var dh = $(document).height();
var wh = $(window).height();

if (dh - (wh + ws) < dh - (h + t)) {
    //now you are at bottom of #infiniteContent element
}

$(document).ready(function(){
	$.getJSON("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/comments", { _page: 1, _limit:3 }, function (jsonre) {
        appendTemplate(jsonre,1);
    });
});

function appendTemplate(jsonre, pageNumber){
	//instead of this code you can use a templating plugin like "Mustache"
	for(var i =0; i<jsonre.length; i++){
  	$("#infiniteContent").append("<div class='item'><h2>"+jsonre[i].name+"</h2><p>"+jsonre[i].body+"</p></div>");
  }

  if (jsonre.length) {
    $("#infiniteContent").attr("data-page", parseInt(pageNumber)+1);
    $(window).on("scroll", initScroll);
    
    //scroll event will not trigger if window size is greater than or equal to document size
    var dh = $(document).height() , wh = $(window).height();
    if(wh>=dh){
    	initScroll();
    }
  }
  else {
    $("#infiniteContent").attr("data-page", "");
  }
}

function initScroll() {
    var t = $("#infiniteContent").offset().top;
    var h = $("#infiniteContent").height();
    var ws = $(window).scrollTop();
    var dh = $(document).height();
    var wh = $(window).height();

    if (dh - (wh + ws) < dh - (h + t)) {
        $(window).off('scroll');
        var p = $("#infiniteContent").attr("data-page");
        if (p) {
            $.getJSON("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/comments", { _page: p, _limit:3 }, function (jsonre) {
                appendTemplate(jsonre, p);
            });
        }
    }
}

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
<div id="infiniteContent"></div>

If you have a scrollable element, like a div with scroll overflow, but no scrollable document/page, you can take this way.

       $(function () {
            var s = $(".your-scrollable-element");
            var list = $("#your-table-list");

            /* On element scroll */
            s.scroll(function () {
                /* The scroll top plus element height equals to table height */
                if ((s.scrollTop() + s.height()) == list.height()) {
                    /* you code */
                }
            });
        });

I wrote this function using Hussein and Nick's ideas, but I wanted it to use promises for the callback. I also wanted the infinite scrolling area to be on a fixed div and not just the window if the div is sent into the options object. There is an example of that in my second link below. I suggest using a promise library like Q if you want to support older browsers. The cb method may or may not be a promise and it will work regardless.

It is used like so:

html

<div id="feed"></div>

js

var infScroll = infiniteScroll({
    cb: function () {
        return doSomethingPossiblyAnAJAXPromise();     
    }
});

If you want the feed to temporarily stop you can return false in the cb method. Useful if you have hit the end of the feed. It can be be started again by calling the infiniteScroll's returned object method 'setShouldLoad' and passing in true and example to go along with the above code.

infScroll.setShouldLoad(true);

The function for infinite scrolling is this

function infiniteScroll (options) {
    // these options can be overwritten by the sent in options
    var defaultOptions = {
        binder: $(window), // parent scrollable element
        loadSpot: 300, //
        feedContainer: $("#feed"), // container
        cb: function () { },
    }

    options = $.extend(defaultOptions, options);
    options.shouldLoad = true;

    var returnedOptions = {
        setShouldLoad: function (bool) { options.shouldLoad = bool; if(bool) { scrollHandler(); } },
    };

    function scrollHandler () { 
        var scrollTop = options.binder.scrollTop();
        var height = options.binder[0].innerHeight || options.binder.height();
        if (options.shouldLoad && scrollTop >= (options.binder[0].scrollHeight || $(document).height()) - height - options.loadSpot) {
            options.shouldLoad = false;
            if(typeof options.cb === "function") {
                new Promise(function (resolve) {resolve();}).then(function() { return options.cb(); }).then(function (isNotFinished) {
                    if(typeof isNotFinished === "boolean") {
                        options.shouldLoad = isNotFinished;
                    }
                });
            }
        }
    }

    options.binder.scroll(scrollHandler);

    scrollHandler();

    return returnedOptions;

}
