useVirtualList
Create virtual lists with ease. Virtual lists (sometimes called virtual scrollers) allow you to render a large number of items performantly. They only render the minimum number of DOM nodes necessary to show the items within the container
element by using the wrapper
element to emulate the container element's full height.
Demo
Usage
Simple list
import { useVirtualList } from '@vueuse/core'
const { list, containerProps, wrapperProps } = useVirtualList(
Array.from(Array(99999).keys()),
{
// Keep `itemHeight` in sync with the item's row.
itemHeight: 22,
},
)
import { useVirtualList } from '@vueuse/core'
const { list, containerProps, wrapperProps } = useVirtualList(
Array.from(Array(99999).keys()),
{
// Keep `itemHeight` in sync with the item's row.
itemHeight: 22,
},
)
Config
State | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
itemHeight | number | ensure that the total height of the wrapper element is calculated correctly.* |
itemWidth | number | ensure that the total width of the wrapper element is calculated correctly.* |
overscan | number | number of pre-rendered DOM nodes. Prevents whitespace between items if you scroll very quickly. |
* The itemHeight
or itemWidth
must be kept in sync with the height of each row rendered. If you are seeing extra whitespace or jitter when scrolling to the bottom of the list, ensure the itemHeight
or itemWidth
is the same height as the row.
Reactive list
import { useVirtualList, useToggle } from '@vueuse/core'
import { computed } from 'vue'
const [isEven, toggle] = useToggle()
const allItems = Array.from(Array(99999).keys())
const filteredList = computed(() => allItems.filter(i => isEven.value ? i % 2 === 0 : i % 2 === 1))
const { list, containerProps, wrapperProps } = useVirtualList(
filteredList,
{
itemHeight: 22,
},
)
import { useVirtualList, useToggle } from '@vueuse/core'
import { computed } from 'vue'
const [isEven, toggle] = useToggle()
const allItems = Array.from(Array(99999).keys())
const filteredList = computed(() => allItems.filter(i => isEven.value ? i % 2 === 0 : i % 2 === 1))
const { list, containerProps, wrapperProps } = useVirtualList(
filteredList,
{
itemHeight: 22,
},
)

Component Usage
This function also provides a renderless component version via the
@vueuse/components
package. Learn more about the usage.
<UseVirtualList :list="list" :options="options" height="300px">
<template #="props">
<!-- you can get current item of list here -->
<div style="height: 22px">Row {{ props.data }}</div>
</template>
</UseVirtualList>
<UseVirtualList :list="list" :options="options" height="300px">
<template #="props">
<!-- you can get current item of list here -->
<div style="height: 22px">Row {{ props.data }}</div>
</template>
</UseVirtualList>
To scroll to a specific element, the component exposes scrollTo(index: number) => void
.
