iron-router-progress

I forked this package from Multiply for experimental reasons It's compatible with iron:router@1.0.0

Implements a simple progress bar, when loading different routes. Example running at: https://iron-router-progress.meteor.com/

Installation

Use Atmosphere to install the latest version of iron-router-progress.

$ mrt add iron-router-progress

Customization

It's mostly all CSS (LESS), and you can pretty much just override the CSS with whatever you want.

For the most part, you'll want to change the #iron-router-progress's background-color and box-shadow like this:

#iron-router-progress {
    background-color : <COLOR>;
    box-shadow       : 0 0 5px <COLOR>;
}

Automatic ticks

By default, the progress bar will tick every 0.75-1.5 seconds, after you start loading a route.

If you want to disable this behaviour you can do it either globally by:

IronRouterProgress.configure
    tick : false

Or by route definition:

Router.map ->
    @route 'home',
        path     : '/'
        progress :
            tick : false

Spinner

By default, a spinner is running, on the far right of the page, when loading.

You'll most likely want to just change the border-color like this:

#iron-router-progress.spinner:before {
    border-color : <COLOR>;
}

If you don't like the spinner, simply disable it with:

IronRouterProgress.configure
    spinner : false

Or by route definition:

Router.map ->
    @route 'home',
        path     : '/'
        progress :
            spinner : false

Enable the progress bar, only for certain routes

If you don't want to use the progress bar for all routes, you can disable it globally, and enable it on the route level:

IronRouterProgress.configure
    enabled : false

Router.map ->
    @route 'home',
        path     : '/'
        progress :
            enabled : true

Or if you just want it disabled for certain routes:

Router.map ->
    @route 'home',
        path     : '/'
        progress :
            enabled : false

Delay the progress from showing up on fast routes

If you don't want to see the progress-bar for 'fast' routes, you can set a delay (time in ms) in which you would like for the progress to wait, before showing up. Global delay:

IronRouterProgress.configure
    delay : 100

Or per route:

Router.map ->
    @route 'home',
        path     : '/'
        progress :
            delay : 100

You can enable it globally, and disable it for specific routes like this:

IronRouterProgress.configure
    delay : 100

Router.map ->
    @route 'home',
        path     : '/'
        progress :
            delay : false
