A small, but powerful Javascript library crafted to power your webapp's pull to refresh feature. No markup needed, highly customizable and dependency-free!


Install

Download PulltoRefresh either from the NPM Registry, CDNJS or UNPKG:

$ npm install pulltorefreshjs --save-dev $ wget -O pulltorefresh.js https://unpkg.com/pulltorefreshjs

Include the JS file in your webapp and initialize it:

const ptr = PullToRefresh.init({   mainElement: 'body',   onRefresh() {     window.location.reload();   }, });

Bundlers can consume pulltorefreshjs as CommonJS and ES6-modules syntax:

import PullToRefresh from 'pulltorefreshjs'; // or const PullToRefresh = require('pulltorefreshjs');

    β€” Defaults to 60
  • distMax (integer) Maximum distance possible for the element.
    β€” Defaults to 80
  • distReload (integer) After the distThreshold is reached and released, the element will have this height.
    β€” Defaults to 50

Use with React

With ReactDOMServer and renderToString() you can use components as icons instead of just strings. In this example we also use Font Awesome to get nice icons with animation, but you can use any React component you like.

Demo on codesandbox.io

import React, { Component } from 'react'; import ReactDOMServer from 'react-dom/server'; import PullToRefresh from 'pulltorefreshjs'; import { faSyncAlt} from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons'; import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/react-fontawesome';  class App extends Component {     componentDidMount()     {         PullToRefresh.init({             mainElement: 'body',             onRefresh() {                 window.location.reload();             },             iconArrow: ReactDOMServer.renderToString(                 <FontAwesomeIcon icon={faSyncAlt} />             ),             iconRefreshing: ReactDOMServer.renderToString(                 <FontAwesomeIcon icon={faSyncAlt} spin={true} />             ),         });     }          componentWillUnmount()      {         // Don't forget to destroy all instances on unmout         // or you will get some glitches.         PullToRefresh.destroyAll();     }      render()     {         return (             <div>                 <h1>App</h1>             </div>         );     } }  export default App;

Contribute

To quickly start the development workflow:

  1. Install NodeJS (NVM)
  2. Run nvm use 10 && npm install
  3. Then npm run dev

This will watch and compile the bundle for browser usage.

E2E tests are executed with TestcafΓ©.

  • Run npm test to use standard chrome
  • Run npm run test:ci to run chrome in headless mode

Advanced debug can be achieved with testcafe-live, e.g.

$ npx testcafe-live chrome tests/e2e/cases --debug-on-fail
