ember-url-hash-polyfill

Navigating to URLs with #hash-targets in them is not supported by most single-page-app frameworks due to the async rendering nature of modern web apps -- the browser can't scroll to a #hash-target on page load / transition because the element hasn't rendered yet. There is an issue about this for Ember here on the RFCs repo.

This addon provides a way to support the behavior that is in normally native to browsers where an anchor tag with href="#some-id-or-name" would scroll down the page when clicked.

Installation

yarn add ember-url-hash-polyfill
# or
npm install ember-url-hash-polyfill
# or
ember install ember-url-hash-polyfill

Compatibility

• Ember.js v3.25 or above
• Node.js v12 or above

Usage

To handle /some-url/#hash-targets on page load and after normal route transitions,

  // app/router.js

  import { withHashSupport } from 'ember-url-hash-polyfill';

+ @withHashSupport
  export default class Router extends EmberRouter {
    location = config.locationType;
    rootURL = config.rootURL;
  }

Additionally, there is a scrollToHash helper if manual invocation is desired.

import { scrollToHash } from 'ember-url-hash-polyfill';

// ...

scrollToHash('some-element-id-or-name');
