Allow custom scroll capture listeners with an abort signal and export the default pagehide and visibilitychange listener setup.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Scroll positions are captured after successful navigation, when the page is hidden, and on pagehide.
    • You can customize capture listeners or trigger capture manually. Custom listeners are cleaned up when the app unmounts; navigation capture remains enabled.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Scroll state is no longer saved when the browser is managing scroll restoration automatically.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified that capture and restore functions are required, and documented capture events, listener setup and cleanup, and synchronous storage during capture.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The scroll-restoration plugin captures after successful navigation, on pagehide, and when the document becomes hidden. It accepts custom capture-listener setup, while navigation capture remains enabled. HTML5 history skips saving scroll state when restoration is set to auto.

The plugin adds setupListeners(capture, signal) and defaults to capture on pagehide and hidden-document visibilitychange. Tests and documentation cover default, custom, and manual capture, listener cleanup, and reload restoration.
HTML5 history scroll-state saving

The before-unload listener skips saving scroll state when history.scrollRestoration is auto. A TODO notes that scroll computation may be removed in v6.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 4b42f

Callers that explicitly pass an undefined listener option cannot install scroll restoration. Normalize the option before calling it; this remains a merge concern.

Keep the default listener when setupListeners is undefined.

If a caller forwards setupListeners: undefined, the options spread replaces the default function. This call then throws during plugin installation. Resolve the listener with options.setupListeners ?? SCROLL_RESTORATION_PLUGIN_OPTIONS_DEFAULTS.setupListeners before calling it.

396-399: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Duplicate: Resolve setupListeners with a fallback before calling it.

A caller can forward setupListeners: undefined. The options spread then replaces the default function. The call at Line 396 throws a TypeError during plugin installation. Fall back to the default function.

Proposed fix
-  optionsWithDefaults.setupListeners(
+  const setupListeners =
+    optionsWithDefaults.setupListeners ??
+    SCROLL_RESTORATION_SETUP_LISTENERS_DEFAULT
+  setupListeners(
     () => capture(router.currentRoute.value),
     listenersController.signal
   )
