# Clearwater::VirtualList

Render a virtual list of Clearwater components where list items outside of the visible area of the page are not rendered. They are inserted just in time while scrolling and removed when they are no longer visible.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'clearwater-virtual_list'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install clearwater-virtual_list

## Usage

Inside your Clearwater app:

```ruby
require 'clearwater/component'
require 'clearwater/virtual_list'

class MyList
include Clearwater::Component

def initialize(items: [], list_style:, item_style:)
# VirtualList will give you the items to render within the viewport
   @items = items

# Make sure you set your list container's style property to this value
   @list_style = list_style

# Make sure the list items' styles are set with this
@item_style = item_style
end

def render
ul({ style: @list_style }, @items.map { |item|
li({ style: @item_style }, [
# ...
])
})
end
end

# Define the virtual list component in terms of your regular list component
MyVirtualList = Clearwater::VirtualList.create do |items:, list_style:, item_style:|
MyList.new(
items: items,
list_style: list_style,
item_style: item_style,
)
end
```

Use the `items` and `item_height` keyword arguments to the component when using it:

```ruby
class Layout
include Clearwater::Component

def render
div([
h1('My list of things'),
MyVirtualList.new(
items: all_the_things, # The full list of items
item_height: 100, # The height of each item in pixels
),
])
end
end
```

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
