OverlayScrollbars for Solid.
npm install overlayscrollbars-solid 




This is the official OverlayScrollbars Solid wrapper.
``sh`
npm install overlayscrollbars-solid
OverlayScrollbars for Solid has the following peer dependencies:
- The vanilla JavaScript library: overlayscrollbars
``
npm install overlayscrollbars
- The Solid framework: solid-js
``
npm install solid-js
The first step is to import the CSS file into your app:
`ts`
import 'overlayscrollbars/overlayscrollbars.css';
> __Note__: If the path 'overlayscrollbars/overlayscrollbars.css' is not working use 'overlayscrollbars/styles/overlayscrollbars.css' as the import path for the CSS file.
The main entry point is the OverlayScrollbarsComponent which can be used in your application as a component:
`jsx
import { OverlayScrollbarsComponent } from "overlayscrollbars-solid";
// ...
example content
`
The component accepts all properties of regular elements such as div and span.
Additionally it has custom optional properties:
- element: accepts a string which represents the tag of the root element.options
- : accepts an object which represents the OverlayScrollbars options.events
- : accepts an object which represents the OverlayScrollbars events.defer
- : accepts an boolean or object. Defers the initialization to a point in time when the browser is idle.
> __Note__: Its highly recommended to use the defer option whenever possible to defer the initialization to a browser's idle period.
`jsx`
// example usage
options={{ scrollbars: { autoHide: 'scroll' } }}
events={{ scroll: () => { / ... / } }}
defer
/>
The ref of the OverlayScrollbarsComponent will give you an object with which you can access the OverlayScrollbars instance and the root element of the component.
The ref object has two properties:
- osInstance: a function which returns the OverlayScrollbars instance.getElement
- : a function which returns the root element.
`jsx
// example usage
import type { OverlayScrollbarsComponentRef } from 'overlayscrollbars-solid';
const Component = () => {
let ref: OverlayScrollbarsComponentRef | undefined;
return
}
`
In case the OverlayScrollbarsComponent is not enough, you can also use the createOverlayScrollbars primitive:
`jsx
import { createOverlayScrollbars } from "overlayscrollbars-solid";
// example usage
const Component = () => {
let div;
const [params, setParams] = createStore({ options, events, defer });
const [initialize, instance] = createOverlayScrollbars(params);
/**
* or:
*
* const [params, setParams] = createSignal({});
* const [initialize, instance] = createOverlayScrollbars(params);
*
* or:
*
* const [options, setOptions] = createSignal();
* const [events, setEvents] = createSignal();
* const [defer, setDefer] = createSignal();
* const [initialize, instance] = createOverlayScrollbars({
* options,
* events,
* defer,
* });
*
*/
onMount(() => {
initialize({ target: div });
});
return
The primitive is for advanced usage and lets you control the whole initialization process. This is useful if you want to integrate it with other plugins.

Parameters are optional and similar to the
OverlayScrollbarsComponent.
Its an object with optional properties:-
options: accepts an object which represents the OverlayScrollbars options.
- events: accepts an object which represents the OverlayScrollbars events.
- defer: accepts an boolean or object. Defers the initialization to a point in time when the browser is idle.> __Note__: The object can be a normal,
store or signal object. This also applies to all fields.$3
The
createOverlayScrollbars primitive returns a tuple with two values:- The first value is the
initialization function, it takes one argument which is the InitializationTarget.
- The second value is a function which returns the current OverlayScrollbars instance or null` if not initialized.MIT
