Changes to this project will be documented in this file.
You may browse a formatted and hyperlinked version of this file at https://unpoly.com/changes.
[up-validate]
again recognizes the [up-fieldset]
attribute to find the form fragment
that should be replaced with validation results.
In the example below, changing the email
input would only validate the first fieldset:
<form action="/users" id="registration">
<div up-fieldset>
Validation message
<input type="text" name="email" up-validate />
</div>
<div up-fieldset>
Validation message
<input type="password" name="password" up-validate />
</div>
</form>
- When submitting a form with a GET method, any query parameters in the form's
[action]
URL are now discarded. This matches the standard browser behavior when submitting a form without Unpoly. - When submitting a form with a POST method, any query parameters in the form's
[action]
URL are now kept in the URL, instead of being merged into the form's data payload. This matches the standard browser behavior when submitting a form without Unpoly. - New experimental function
up.Params.stripURL(url)
. It returns the given URL without its query string.
- When user does not confirm an
[up-confirm]
link, the link's.up-active
class is now removed (fixes #89)
This is a major update with some breaking changes.
- jQuery is no longer required! Unpoly now has zero dependencies.
- New
up.element
helpers to complement nativeElement
methods. You might not even miss jQuery anymore. - Vastly improved performance on slow devices.
- Utility functions that work with arrays and array-like values have been greatly improved.
- The
up.util
module now plug the worst emissions in JavaScript's standard library: Equality-by-value, empty-by-value and shallow-copy. Your own objects may hook into those protocols. - You may define a padding when revealing.
- Smooth scrolling now mimics native scroll behavior.
- Fixed many positioning issues with popups and tooltips.
- Several modules have been renamed to match the pattern
up.thing.verb()
.up.dom
is nowup.fragment
,up.bus
is nowup.event
,up.layout
is nowup.viewport
.
Details below.
jQuery no longer required to use Unpoly. That means Unpoly no longer has any dependencies!
Due to its use of native DOM APIs, Unpoly is now a lot faster. Like, a lot. Ditching jQuery also saves you 30 KB of gzipped bundle size and speeds up your own code.
Effort has been made to ensure that migrating to this version is smooth for existing apps that use jQuery.
All Unpoly functions that accept element arguments will accept both native elements and jQuery collections.
You will need to prefix some function calls with $
to have your callbacks called with jQuery collections instead of native elements:
- The
up.compiler()
callback now receives a native element instead of a jQuery collection. For the old behavior, useup.$compiler()
. - The
up.macro()
callback now received a native element instead of a jQuery collection. For the old behavior, useup.$macro()
. - The event handler passed to
up.on()
now receives an element instead of a jQuery collection. For the old behavior, useup.$on()
.
Finally, all Unpoly events (up:*
) are now triggered as native events that can be received with Element#addEventListener()
. You may continue to use jQuery's jQuery#on()
to listen to Unpoly events, but you need to access custom properties through event.originalEvent
.
Also know that if you use jQuery's $.fn.trigger()
to emit events, these events are not received by native event listeners (including Unpoly). Use up.emit()
instead to trigger an event that can be received by both native listeners and jQuery listeners.
See below for detailed changes.
A new, experimental up.element
module offers convience functions for DOM manipulation and traversal.

-
The
up.bus
module has been renamed toup.event
. We want to normalize Unpoly's API to the patternup.thing.verb()
in the future. -
All Unpoly events (
up:*
) are now triggered as native events that can be received withElement#addEventListener()
. You may continue to use jQuery'sjQuery#on()
to listen to Unpoly events, but you need to access custom properties fromevent.originalEvent
. -
Properties named
event.$target
andevent.$element
have been removed from all Unpoly events. Use the standardevent.target
to retrieve the element on which the element was emitted. -
up.on()
may now bind to a given element by passing it as an (optional) first argument:up.on(element, '.button', 'click', (event) => { ... })
You may use this for event delegation.
-
The event handler passed to
up.on()
now receives an element instead of a jQuery collection:up.on('click', (event, element) => { alert("Clicked on an " + element.tagName) })
For the old behavior, use
up.$on()
. -
up.emit()
may now trigger an event on a given element by passing the element as an (optional) first argument:up.emit(element, 'app:user:login', { email: '[email protected]' })
-
up.emit()
option{ message }
is now{ log }
. -
up.emit()
no longer logs by default. You can enable the old efault message with{ log: true }
. -
up.event.nobodyPrevents()
option{ message }
is now{ log }
. -
The experimental function
up.reset()
was removed without replacement. -
The experimental event
up:framework:reset
was removed without replacement.
-
Compilers may again return an array of destructor functions. The previous deprecation was removed.
-
The
up.compiler()
callback now receives a native element instead of a jQuery collection:up.compiler('.button', function(button) { alert("We have a new button with class " + button.className) })
For the old behavior, use
up.$compiler()
. -
The
up.macro()
callback now received a native element instead of a jQuery collection:up.compiler('a.fast-link', function(element) { element.setAttribute('up-preload', 'up-preload') element.setAttribute('up-instant', 'up-instant') })
For the old behavior, use
up.$macro()
.
-
up:form:submit
no longer has a{ $form }
property. The event is now emitted on the form that is being submitted. -
up.observe()
now accepts a single form field, multiple fields, a<form>
or any container that contains form fields. The callback is called once for each change in any of the given elements. -
The callback for
up.observe()
now receives the arguments(value, name)
, wherevalue
is the changed field value andname
is the[name]
of the field element:up.observe('form', function(value, name) { console.log('The value of %o is now %o', name, value); });
The second argument was previously the observed input element as a jQuery collection.
-
up.observe()
now accepts a{ batch: true }
option to receive all changes since the last callback in a single object:up.observe('form', { batch: true }, function(diff) { console.log('Observed one or more changes: %o', diff); });
-
The default
up.form.config.validateTargets
no longer includes the selector'[up-fieldset]'
.
- CSS property names for custom animations and transitions must be given in
kebab-case
.camelCase
properties are no longer supported.
- The module
up.dom
has been renamed toup.fragment
. We want to normalize Unpoly's API to the patternup.thing.verb()
in the future. - The experimental function
up.all()
has been removed without replacement - The function
up.first()
has been renamed toup.fragment.first()
to not be confused with the low-levelup.element.first()
. - The event
up:fragment:destroy
has been removed without replacement. This event was previously emitted before a fragment was removed. The eventup:fragment:destroyed
(emitted after a fragment was removed), remains in the API. - The
up:fragment:destroyed
event no longer has a{ $element }
property. It now has a{ fragment }
property that contains the detached element. Like before, it is emitted on the former parent of the destroyed element. - The properties for the
up:fragment:keep
event have been renamed. - The properties for the
up:fragment:kept
event have been renamed. - The properties for the
up:fragment:inserted
event have been renamed. - The properties for the
up:fragment:destroyed
event have been renamed.
The up.util
module now plug the worst emissions in JavaScript's standard library: Equality-by-value, empty-by-value, shallow copy:
- New experimental function
up.util.isEqual()
. It returns whether the given arguments are equal by value. - New experimental property
up.util.isEqual.key
. This property contains the name of a method that user-defined classes may implement to hook into theup.util.isEqual()
protocol. up.util.isBlank()
now returns false for objects with a constructor.- New experimental property
up.util.isBlank.key
. This property contains the name of a method that user-defined classes may implement to hook into theup.util.isBlank()
protocol. - New experimental property
up.util.copy.key
. This property contains the name of a method that user-defined classes may implement to hook into theup.util.copy()
protocol.
More utility functions to have been added to work with lists:
- New experimental function
up.util.findResult()
. It consecutively calls the given function which each element in the given list and returns the first truthy return value. - New experimental function
up.util.flatten()
. This flattens the given list a single level deep. - New experimental function
up.util.flatMap()
. This maps each element using a mapping function, then flattens the result into a new array.
Some list functions have been renamed to names used in the standard Array
API:
up.util.all()
was renamed toup.util.every()
to match the standardArray#every()
, and to be less confusing withup.element.all()
.up.util.any()
was renamed toup.util.some()
to match the standardArray#some()
.up.util.select()
was renamed toup.util.filter()
to match the standardArray#filter()
.up.util.detect()
was renamed toup.util.find()
to match the standardArray#find()
.
All functions that worked for arrays now also work for array-like values:
- New experimental function
up.util.isList()
. It returns whether the given argument is an array-like value, like anArray
or aNodeList
. up.util.reject()
now works for all array-like values, not just arrays.up.util.filter()
now works for all array-like values, not just arrays.up.util.find()
now works for all array-like values, not just arrays.up.util.some()
now works for all array-like values, not just arrays.up.util.every()
now works for all array-like values, not just arrays.
And some minor changes:
up.util.nextFrame()
has been renamed toup.util.task()
.up.util.setTimer()
has been renamed toup.util.timer()
.- `up.util.toArray() now returns its unchanged argument if the argument is already an array.
up.util.copy()
now works withDate
objects.up.util.isBoolean()
is now stableup.util.escapeHtml()
is now stableup.util.isJQuery()
now returnsfalse
if no jQuery is loaded into thewindow.jQuery
globalup.util.unresolvablePromise()
was removed without replacement.up.util.trim()
has been removed without replacement. Use the standardString#trim()
instead.up.util.parseUrl()
now returns the correct{ hostname }
,{ protocol }
and{ pathname }
properties on IE11.up.util.selectorForElement()
is nowup.element.toSelector()
- The
up.layout
module has been renamed toup.viewport
. We want to normalize Unpoly's API to the patternup.thing.verb()
in the future. - Smooth scrolling now mimics native scroll behavior:
up.scroll()
no longer takes a{ duration }
or{ easing }
option.up.scroll()
now takes a{ behavior }
option. Valid values areauto
(no animation) andsmooth
(animates the scroll motion).- You may control the pace of
{ behavior: 'smooth' }
by also passing a{ speed }
option`. - New config property
up.viewport.scrollSpeed
. This sets the default speed for smooth scrolling. The default value (1
) roughly corresponds to the default speed of Chrome's native smooth scrolling.
- Options for
up.reveal()
have been changed:- Options
{ duration }
and{ easing }
have been removed. - New option
{ padding }
to pass the desired padding between the revealed element and the closest viewport edge (in pixels). - New option
{ snap }
. It can betrue
,false
or a pixel number. - New option
{ behavior }
- New option
{ speed }
. Defaults toup.viewport.scrollSpeed
. - Config property
up.layout.config.snap
has been renamed toup.viewport.config.revealSnap
. - New config option
up.viewport.revealPadding
.
- Options
- New experimental function
up.viewport.root()
. It return the scrolling element for the browser's main content area. - New experimental function
up.viewport.closest()
. It returns the scrolling container for the given element. - When a
#hash
anchor is revealed during the initial page load, Unpoly will look for an[up-id=hash]
before looking for[id=hash]
anda[name=hash]
. - Fix issues with restoring scroll positions when going back on some browsers.
[up-alias]
now accepts one or more asterisks (*
) anywhere in the pattern. It was previously limited to match URLs with a given prefix.
- Use of native browser APIs has improved performance drastically.
[up-preload]
and[up-instant]
links no longer bind to thetouchstart
event, increasing frame rate while scrolling.
The experimental up.params
module has been replaced with the up.Params
class.
Wrap any type of parameter representation into up.Params
to get consistent API for reading
and manipulation.
The following types of parameter representation are supported:
- An object like
{ email: '[email protected]' }
- A query string like
'email=foo%40bar.com'
- An array of
{ name, value }
objects like[{ name: 'email', value: '[email protected]' }]
- A FormData object.
On IE 11 and Edge,
FormData
payloads require a polyfill forFormData#entries()
.
Supported methods are:
| new up.Params()
| Constructor. |
| up.Params#add()
| Adds a new entry with the given name
and value
. |
| up.Params#addAll()
| Adds all entries from the given list of params. |
| up.Params#addField()
| Adds params from the given HTML form field. |
| up.Params#delete()
| Deletes all entries with the given name
. |
| up.Params#get()
| Returns the first param value with the given name
from the given params
. |
| up.Params#set()
| Sets the value
for the entry with given name
. |
| up.Params#toArray()
| Returns an array representation of this up.Params
instance. |
| up.Params#toFormData()
| Returns a FormData
representation of this up.Params
instance. |
| up.Params#toObject()
| Returns an object representation of this up.Params
instance. |
| up.Params#toQuery()
| Returns an query string for this up.Params
instance. |
| up.Params#toURL()
| Builds an URL string from the given base URL and this up.Params
instance as a query string. |
| up.Params.fromFields()
| Constructs a new up.Params
instance from one or more HTML form field. |
| up.Params.fromForm()
| Constructs a new up.Params
instance from the given <form>
. |

instance from the given URL's query string. |
-
The HTML markup for a popup has been changed to make it easier to style with CSS. The new structure is:
<div class="up-popup"> <div class="up-popup-content"> Fragment content here </div> </div>
-
The default CSS styles for
.up-popup
has been changed. If you have customized popup styles, you should check if your modifications still work with the new defaults. -
Popups now update their position when the screen is resized.
-
Popups now follow scrolling when placed within viewports other than the main document.
-
The
[up-position]
attribute has been split into two attributes[up-position]
and[up-align]
. Similarly the{ position }
option has been split into two options{ position }
and{ align }
:{ position }
defines on which side of the opening element the popup is attached. Valid values are'top'
,'right'
,'bottom'
and'left'
.{ align }
defines the alignment of the popup along its side.- When the popup's
{ position }
is'top'
or'bottom'
, valid{ align }
values are'left'
,center'
and'right'
. - When the popup's
{ position }
is'left'
or'right'
, valid{ align }
values aretop'
,center'
andbottom'
.
-
New experimental function
up.popup.sync()
. It forces the popup to update its position when a layout change is not detected automatically. -
popup elements are now appended to the respective viewport of the anchor element. They were previously always appended to the end of the
<body>
. -
The events
up:popup:open
,up:popup:opened
,up:popup:close
andup:popup:closed
have an{ anchor }
property. It references the element that the popup was attached to.
-
The HTML markup for a popup has been changed to make it easier to style with CSS. The new structure is:
<div class="up-tooltip"> <div class="up-tooltip-content"> Tooltip text here </div> </div>
-
The default CSS styles for
.up-tooltip
have been changed. If you have customized tooltip styles, you should check if your modifications still work with the new defaults. -
Tooltips now update their position when the screen is resized.
-
Tooltips now follow scrolling when placed within viewports other than the main document.
-
The
[up-position]
attribute has been split into two attributes[up-position]
and[up-align]
. Similarly the{ position }
option has been split into two options{ position }
and{ align }
:{ position }
defines on which side of the opening element the popup is attached. Valid values are'top'
,'right'
,'bottom'
and'left'
.{ align }
defines the alignment of the popup along its side.- When the tooltip's
{ position }
is'top'
or'bottom'
, valid{ align }
values are'left'
,center'
and'right'
. - When the tooltip's
{ position }
is'left'
or'right'
, valid{ align }
values aretop'
,center'
andbottom'
.
-
New experimental function
up.tooltip.sync()
. It forces the popup to update its position when a layout change is not detected automatically. -
Tooltip elements are now appended to the respective viewport of the anchor element. They were previously always appended to the end of the
<body>
.
- Unpoly is now compatible with the jQuery-less UJS adapter (now part of Action View).
- The properties for the
up:link:preload
event have been renamed.
- Opening/closing a modal will now manipulate the
{ overflow-y }
style on the same element that was chosen by the CSS author (nasty details).
- Renamed some files so they won't be blocked by over-eager ad blockers on developer PCs.
- Deprecation warnings are only printed once per environment.
To prevent confusion with [up-data]
, Unpoly now uses the word "params" when talking about form values or request parameters:
up.request()
option{ data }
has been renamed to{ params }
.up.replace()
option{ data }
has been renamed to{ params }
.
Parameters may be passed in one of the following types:
- an object like
{ email: '[email protected]' }
- a FormData object
- a query string like
email=foo%40bar.com
- an array of
{ name, value }
objects like[{ name: 'email', value: '[email protected]' }]
To help working with form values and request parameters, an experimental module up.params
has been added. It offers a consistent API to manipulate request parameters independent of their type.
up.params.fromForm()
- serialize a<form>
up.params.fromURL()
- extract params from a URL's query stringup.params.toArray()
- convert any params type to an array of{ name, value }
elementsup.params.toObject()
- convert any params type to an objectup.params.toQuery()
- convert any params type to a query stringup.params.toFormData()
- convert any params type to a FormData objectup.params.buildURL()
- composes a URL with query section from a base URL and a params value of any typeup.params.get()
- retrieve the value for the given params keyup.params.add()
- adds a single key/value to a params value of any typeup.params.assign()
- adds the params to another paramsup.params.merge()
- merges two params
- When Unpoly cannot find the viewport of an element, it now uses the scrolling root element. This is either
<body>
or<html>
, depending on the browser. - Fix a bug where linking back and forth between multiple
#anchor
hashes of the same URL would always reveal the first anchor. - Revealing elements below fixed navigation bars now honors the navigation bar's
padding
,border
,margin
,top
andbottom
properties. - Fix a bug where revealing elements fixed navigation bars would scroll 1 pixel too short.
up.layout.revealHash()
no longer retrieves the hash anchor from the current URL. You need to pass in a#hash
value as a first argument.- Fix a bug where a
#hash
anchor would not be revealed if it included non-word characters like spaces or dots.
- To improve performance, Unpoly no longer parses
[up-data]
attributes when a compiler function does not require a seconddata
argument. - Compilers that return destructor functions now run slightly faster.
- Compilers with
{ batch: true }
now receive an array of[up-data]
objects as their seconddata
argument. - Compilers with
{ batch: true }
can no longer return destructor functions. Previously the behavior of batch destructors was undefined, now it throws an error. - Returning an array of destructor functions from
up.compiler()
is now deprecated. Please return a single destructor function instead. up.syntax.data()
now returnsundefined
if the given object has no (or an empty)[up-data]
attribute. It previously returned an empty object.
- To improve performance, Unpoly no longer parses
[up-data]
attributes when anup.on()
listener does not require a thirddata
argument. up.on()
now throws an error when the same callback function is registered multiple times.
- New experimental function
up.all()
, which returns all elements matching the given selector. Likeup.first()
it ignores elements that are being destroyed or transitioned.
- New experimental function
up.util.isBoolean()
. up.follow()
now accepts a{ url }
option. It can be used to override the given link's[href]
attribute.- New configuration option
up.form.config.submitButtons
up.preload()
now accepts an options hash that will be passed on to the function making the preload request.- New experimental function
up.Response#getHeader()
. It looks up the header value for the given name in the HTTP response header.
- Calling
event.preventDefault()
onup:modal:close
andup:popup:close
events no longer printsUncaught (in promise)
to the error console. You still need to catch rejected promises in your own code when it calls Unpoly functions and that function is prevented by an event handler.
- Fix a regression where the contents of
<noscript>
tags were parsed into DOM elements (instead of text) when a fragment contained more than one<noscript>
element. Thanks to @foobear for helping with this.
- Fix a bug where loading a page with both a ?query string and a #fragment hash would throw an error
- Improve performance of HTML parsing.
- Fix a bug where the Bootstrap 3 integration failed to load. Thanks @dastra-mak!
- Fix a bug where
up.util.reject()
would stop working after an animation.
- New stable selector
.up-destroying
. This CSS class is assigned to elements before they are destroyed or while they are being removed by a transition. - Fix a bug where
up.first()
would sometimes find an element that is being destroyed.
This release includes major performance improvements and a new animation engine.
Beware of the breaking change with .up-current
!
Maintaining the .up-current
on all links turned out to be a major performance bottleneck, so we had to make some breaking changes:
-
The
.up-current
class is now only assigned to links with an[up-nav]
attribute, or to links within a container with an[up-nav]
attribute. You should assign the[up-nav]
attribute to all navigational elements that rely on.up-current
for styling`. -
You can also globally configure selectors for your navigational elements in
up.feedback.config.navs
:up.feedback.config.navs.push('.my-nav-bar')
-
The normalized URLs of
[up-nav]
links are now cached for performance reasons. -
[up-nav]
links are only updated once when multiple fragments are updated in a single replacement.
- When performing an animated page transition Unpoly will no longer create copies of the old and new fragment versions. The animation will instead be performed on the fragment elements themselves.
- When animating an element with an existing CSS transition, Unpoly will now pause the CSS transition in its current state, perform the animation, then resume the CSS transition.
- Unpoly now does less work when animation is disabled globally through
up.motion.config.enabled = false
. up.morph()
will now expect the new fragment version to be detached from the DOM before morphing.up.morph()
will now detach the old fragment version from the DOM after morphing.- The
up.morph()
function has been demoted from stable to experimental. up.motion.finish()
now longer queries the DOM when there are no active animations.
- When Unpoly cannot find the viewport of an element, it will now always considers
document
to be the viewport.
- The
up:fragment:destroyed
event is now emitted after the fragment has been removed from the DOM. The event is emitted on the former parent of the removed fragment.
- Fix a bug where
up.util.isBlank()
returnedtrue
for a function value - Fix a bug where
up.util.only()
did not copy properties inherited from a prototype
- Partially remove jQuery from internal code for performance reasons. We want to eventually remove jQuery as a dependency.
- Cache the results of feature detection for performance reasons.
- Unpoly is now more efficient when selecting elements from the DOM.
- Unpoly is now more efficient when reacting to mouse events.
This release restores support for Internet Explorer 11, which we accidentally broke in 0.55.0.
Thanks to @foobear for helping with this.
- Unpoly now detects when an
[up-target]
with multiple selectors would replace the same element multiple times. In such a case the target selector will be shortened to contain the element once. - Unpoly now detects when an
[up-target]
with multiple selectors contains nested elements. In such a case the target selector will be shortened to only contain the outmost element.
up.util.uniq()
now works on DOM elements and other object references.- New experimental function
up.util.uniqBy()
. This function is likeuniq
, accept that the given function is invoked for each element to generate the value for which uniquness is computed. - Changes to utility functions that work on lists (
up.util.each()
,up.util.map()
,up.util.all()
,up.util.any()
,up.util.select()
,up.util.reject()
):-
List functions now accept a property name instead of a mapping function:
users = [{ name: 'foo' }, { name: 'bar' }] up.util.map(users, 'name') // ['foo', 'bar']
-
List functions now pass the iteration index as a second argument to the given function:
users = [{ name: 'foo' }, { name: 'bar' }] up.util.map(users, function(user, index) { return index }) // [0, 1]
-
This release contains no new features, but will help you when using tools like Babel or Webpack:
- Unpoly now ship without any uses of
eval()
in its JavaScript sources. Use ofeval()
had previously prevented minifiers from shortening local variables in some files. - Documentation in Unpoly's JavaScript sources can no longer be confused with JSDoc comments. Unpoly does not use JSDoc, but some build pipelines eagerly look for JSDoc comments to generate type information.
[up-hungry]
elements will now also be updated when the server responds with an error code. This helps when[up-hungry]
is used to display error messages.
-
When a form is submitted you can now consistently refer to that form element as
&
in CSS selectors (like in Sass).E.g. to reveal the first error message within a failed form submission:
<form id="my-form" up-target=".page" up-fail-reveal="& .error"> ... </form>
In this case
& .error
will be replaced by#my-form .error
before submission.This affects CSS selectors in the following HTML attributes:
form[up-target]
form[up-fail-target]
form[up-reveal]
form[up-fail-reveal]
-
When a link is followed you can now consistently refer to that link element as
&
in CSS selectors (like in Sass).This affects CSS selectors in the following HTML attributes:
a[up-target]
a[up-fail-target]
a[up-reveal]
a[up-fail-reveal]
- New option for
up.replace()
:{ keep: false }
will disable preservation of[up-keep]
elements. - New option for
up.replace()
:{ hungry: false }
will disable updates of[up-hungry]
elements.
- Updates for
[up-hungry]
elements will no longer auto-close a modal dialog. - Updates for
[up-hungry]
elements will no longer auto-close a popup overlay. - CSRF-related
<meta>
tags are no longer updated automatically with every request. This is to prevent unnecessary DOM jitter in applications that don't rotate CSRF tokens.
- Calling
up.popup.attach()
without a target selector will now throw an error.
- Failed requests in event handlers of CSS selectors like
form[up-target]
no longer printUncaught (in promise)
to the error console. You still need to catch and handle rejected promises in your own code when it calls Unpoly functions.
- Fix a bug where a page transition would flicker if revealing was animated globally by setting
up.layout.config.duration
.
- Fix a bug where preloading would not always be aborted when stopping to hover before
up.proxy.config.preloadDelay
.
- Fix a bug where replacing the first element on the page (in DOM order) would shift the scroll position if animation is disabled.
- Fix a bug where query params would be lost when Unpoly would fall back to a full page load.
- The optional cookie the server can send to signal the initial request method will now be removed as soon as Unpoly has booted.
- Fix a bug where the animation
move-from-top
would finish instantly after animating withmove-to-top
. - Fix a bug where the animation
move-from-right
would finish instantly after animating withmove-to-right
. - Fix a bug where the animation
move-from-bottom
would finish instantly after animating withmove-to-bottom
. - Fix a bug where the animation
move-from-left
would finish instantly after animating withmove-to-left
Thi work-in-progress package up.radio
will contain functionality to
passively receive updates from the server. Currently the following functionality is implemented:
-
Elements with an
[up-hungry]
attribute are updated whenever there is a matching element found in a successful response. The element is replaced even when it isn't targeted directly.Use cases for this are unread message counters or notification flashes. Such elements often live in the layout, outside of the content area that is being replaced.
-
When a reserver response contains a
<meta name="csrf-param">
or<meta name="csrf-token">
element, it is automatically updated in the current page.
- Changes when generating CSS selectors for elements:
[aria-label]
attributes are used if no better attributes exist (like[id]
or[up-id]
attributes).- Attribute values with quotes are now escaped if they appear in an attribute selector.
- Attribute selectors now use double quotes instead of single quotes.
- When a
[name]
attribute is used, the tag name is also used. E.g.meta[name="csrf-token"]
. - Element IDs that contain non-word characters (e.g. slashes, spaces, dots), will now generate an attribute selector like
[id="foo/bar"]
.
- You can give forms an
[up-fail-reveal]
attribute to indicate which element should be revealed when the server responds with an error. You may use this, for example, to reveal the first validation error message:<form up-target=".content" up-fail-reveal=".error"> ... </form>
- Forms with an
[up-reveal]
attribute will now only honor the attribute when the form submission was successful. - Forms with an
[up-restore-scroll]
attribute will now only honor the attribute when the form submission was successful. - Forms with an
[up-reveal="css-selector"]
attribute will no longer crash when the selector could not be found. - Fix a bug where you couldn't submit a form if it's ID contains a slash character (#46).
- You can give links an
[up-fail-reveal]
attribute to indicate which element should be revealed when the server responds with an error - Links with an
[up-reveal]
attribute will now only honor the attribute when the link could be followed successfully. - Links with an
[up-restore-scroll]
attribute will now only honor the attribute when the link could be followed successfully. - Links with an
[up-reveal="css-selector"]
attribute will no longer crash when the selector could not be found.
- When replacing multiple elements, it is no longer possible to use different transitions for each element. The same transition is always applied to all elements.
- No longer prints an error to console when registering a macro on an unsupported browser.
- Unpoly can now detect the final URL of a redirect response without the optional server protocol. The server protocol is still needed to detect redirects on Internet Explorer 11.
- When making HTTP requests Unpoly will now always merge params in the URL's query section with params from the
{ data }
option.
- Following a link now emits an
up:link:follow
event. The event can be prevented.
- Submitting a form through Unpoly now emits an
up:form:submit
event. The event can be prevented.
- Fix a bug where Unpoly would crash when replacing a fragment with a
<script>
tag with a later sibling element.
<script>
tags that were inserted by a fragment update are no longer executed. They are still executed during the initial page load. If you need a fragment update to call JavaScript code, call it from a compiler (Google Analytics example).- The configuration option
up.dom.config.runInlineScripts
has been removed without replacement. - The configuration option
up.dom.config.runLinkedScripts
has been removed without replacement. - Fix a bug where the contents of
<noscript>
tags were parsed into DOM elements (instead of a single verbatim text node). This was confusing libraries that work with<noscript>
tags, such as lazysizes. - Work around a bug in IE11 and Edge where
<noscript>
tags that were inserted by a fragment update could not be found with jQuery ordocument.querySelectorAll()
.
- Updating fragments is now much faster when no
[up-keep]
elements are involved.
up.reveal()
no longer crashes when called with a CSS selector or non-jQuery element.up.reveal()
now returns a rejected promise when no viewport could be found for the given element.
[up-expand]
now ignores clicks on form fields. This is useful e.g. whenup-expand
ing a table row that contains both links and form fields.
a[up-preload]
will no longer preload a link when the user holds the Shift, Ctrl or Meta key while hovering.
- Boolean HTML attributes are now also considered
true
if their values equal the attribute name, e.g.up-keep="up-keep"
(#36)
up.request()
now sends anX-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest
headers. This header is used by many server-side frameworks to detect an AJAX request. (#42)
This is a major update with some breaking changes. Expect a few more updates like this as we move closer to our 1.0 release in 2018.
- jQuery 3 is now supported in addition to jQuery 1.9+ and jQuery 2.
- Unpoly now uses native Promises instead of jQuery deferreds.
- You can now help improve Unpoly's documentation by clicking an Edit this page link on any unpoly.com subpage (like
a[up-target]
).
- To enable support for Internet Explorer 11 you need to install a Polyfill for
Promise
. We recommend ES6-promise (2.4 KB gzipped). - Fix a bug where Unpoly would not boot on Safari 9 and 10 if the initial page was loaded with a
POST
method.
- Unpoly now uses native XMLHttpRequest instead of
jQuery.ajax()
. If you have been hacking into Unpoly's networking throughjQuery.ajaxPrefilter()
, you must now use theup:proxy:load
event. up.ajax()
has been deprecated since its signature is incompatible with native promises. Please useup.request()
instead, whose promise fulfills with anup.Response
object.- The
up:proxy:received
event has been renamed toup:proxy:loaded
. - The
up:proxy:load
event properties have changed. You can now access request properties through a key{ request }
, e.g.event.request.url
. - The
up:proxy:load
event can now be prevented to prevent a request from being sent to the network. - The
up:proxy:load
event now allows listeners to change request headers by manipulating theevent.request.headers
object. - A new event
up:proxy:fatal
will be emitted when an AJAX request encounters fatal error like a timeout or loss of network connectivity.
- Links with unsafe HTTP methods like
POST
are no longer marked as.up-current
, even if their[href]
matches the current URL. - New experimental function
up.link.isSafe()
. It returns whether the given link has a safe HTTP method likeGET
.
- When a selector was not found in the response, the error notification now offers a link to show the unexpected response.
- The event
up:fragment:destroy
can no longer be prevented.
- Clicking a link with an
[up-restore-scroll]
attribute will no longer crash if no previous scroll position for given URL is known (#25) - Fix a bug where going back in history would sometimes not call destructors (#24)
up.observe()
no longer sends multiple callbacks when a previous callback was slow to respond.
- Fix a bug where tooltips would sometimes stay open when many tooltips are opened and closed concurrently.
- When the server signals a redirect with a
X-Up-Location
header, sending aX-Up-Method
header is now optional. If it is missing,GET
is assumed. - Unpoly will often update a different selector in case the request fails. This second selector is now sent to the server as a
X-Up-Fail-Target
header. - You can now configure how CSRF tokens are sent your server-side framework.
- CSRF tokens are no longer sent for cross-domain requests.
up.motion.none()
has been removed without replacement. Just passfalse
or the string'none'
to indicate a animation or transition which has no visual effects and completes instantly.up.motion.finish()
is now async. It returns a promise that fulfills when all animations are finished.up.motion.finish()
now also finishes animations in ancestors of the given element.
up.follow()
will now open a modal if the given link has an[up-modal]
attributea[up-modal]
links can now have an[up-fail-target]
attribute to indicate which selector to replace for an non-200 response- Fix a bug where preloading an up-modal link would create an invisible .up-modal container in the DOM.
up.follow()
will now open a popup if the given link has[up-popup]
attribute- up-popup links can now have an up-fail-target attribute to indicate which selector to replace for an non-200 response
- Fix a bug where preloading an up-popup link would create an invisible .up-popup container in the DOM.
up.popup.attach()
now throws an error if neither{ url }
nor{ html }
options are given.
- When async functions emit an event and that event is prevented, the async function now rejects with an
Error
. - When async functions are called wth
{ confirm: true }
and the user denies confirmation, the async function now rejects with anError
.
up.util.setTimer()
is now always async, even when called with a delay of0
(zero). The function is now stable.up.util.isHash()
has been removed without replacement. In your code you can replaceup.util.isHash(x)
withup.util.isObject(x) && !up.util.isFunction(x)
.up.util.resolvedDeferred()
has been removed without replacement. UsePromise.resolve()
instead.up.util.resolvedPromise()
has been removed without replacement. UsePromise.resolve(
) instead.up.util.rejectedPromise()

instead.up.util.unresolvableDeferred()
has been removed without replacement. Usenew Promise(function() {})
instead.up.motion.when()
has been removed without replacement. UsePromise.all()
instead.up.util.isString()
now also returns true forString
instances (in addition to string literals)up.util.isNumber()
now also returns true forNumber
instances (in addition to number literals)
- New method
up.fail_target
available in controllers, helpers and views. It returns the selector targeted for a failed response. - New method
up.fail_target?(target)
available in controllers, helpers and views. It returns whether the given selector is targeted for a failed response. - New method
up.any_target?(target)
available in controllers, helpers and views. It returns whether the given selector is targeted for a either a successful or failed response.
- Fix a bug where replacing the
<body>
element would not trigger destructor functions in the old<body>
. - Fix a bug where
[up-layer]
attributes or{ layer }
options were ignored. a[up-target]
and [form[up-target]
] get a new modifying attribute[up-fail-layer]
. Use it to set the layer to update if the server sends a non-200 status code. Valid values areauto
,page
,modal
andpopup
.- JavaScript functions like
up.replace()
orup.submit()
now have a{ failLayer }
option.
- Validating forms will no longer change the scroll position.
- npm package now expresses Unpoly's dependency on
jquery
. - Modals no longer close when clicking an element that exists outside the modal's DOM hierarchy.
- Fix a bug on IE11 where modals would immediately close after opening if the opening link had an
[up-instant]
attribute and the destination page was already cached.
- The
[up-observe]
attribute can now be set on a<form>
to run a function if any contained input field changes. - Fix a bug where

attribute if used on a form. - When submitting a form, the
name
andvalue
of the submit button is now included with the form parameters. - Going back in history after a fragment update now always restores elements the page layer, never a selector in modals or popups.

up-show-for
andup-hide-for
attributes can now be inserted dynamically after its controllingup-switch
field has been compiled. - Unpoly no longer strips a trailing slash in the current URL during startup
-
During the initial page load Unpoly now reveals an element matching the
#hash
in the current URL.Other than the default behavior found in browsers,
up.revealHash
works with multiple viewports and honors fixed elements obstructing the user's view of the viewport. -
New experimental function
up.layout.revealHash()
. -
The optional server protocol is now documented. The protocol is already implemented by the
unpoly-rails
Ruby gem. -
New experimental property
up.protocol.config
. -
up.browser.isSupported()
has been promoted from experimental to stable API
up.proxy.config.wrapMethodParam
is nowup.protocol.config.methodParam

is no longer emitted when a history state was not created by Unpoly.
-
When a fragment updates cannot find the requested element, you can now define a fallback selector to use instead.
A
{ fallback }
option has been added to all Javascript functions that update fragments, likeup.replace()
.Also an
[up-fallback]
attribute has been added to all CSS selectors that update fragments, like fora[up-target]
.You can also define fallbacks globally using the
up.dom.config
property. -
Unpoly no longer crashes when a request fails due to a timeout or network problem. In such cases, async functions (like

) now accept a new option{ timeout }
. -
Modals no longer create an
.up-modal
element when the server returns a non-200 status and the{ failTarget }

. You can use it provide a second element or selector that can be referenced as&
in the first selector:$input = $('input.email'); up.first('.field:has(&)', $input); // returns the .field containing $input
-
Fix a bug where the document title wasn't restored when the user uses the back button
-
When revealing a page fragment, Unpoly will include the element's top and bottom margin in the area that should be revealed.
up.replace()
now returns a rejected promise if the server returns a non-200 status code.up.util.merge()
has been replaced byup.util.assign()
, which no longer makes exceptions fornull
andundefined
property values. This behaves likeObject.assign

did not persist through page reloads. - Fix a bug where
up.reveal()
would scroll too far if the viewport has apadding-top
. - Fix a bug where

- When targeting an URL with a #hash, the viewport will now scroll to the first row of an element with that ID, rather than scrolling as little as possible.
-
Modals can no longer grow wider than the screen
-
The spacing around a modal dialog is longer implemented as a
margin
of.up-modal-dialog
. It is now a padding of.up-modal-viewport
. This makes it easier to set thewidth
ormax-width
of the dialog box.If your project has custom Unpoly styles, you should grep your CSS files for changes to the
margin
of.up-modal-dialog
and set it as apadding
on.up-modal-viewport[flavor=default]
instead.
- Unpoly can now be installed as an npm module called
unpoly
.
- Drawers are now a built-in modal flavor! Use the
[up-drawer]
attribute to open page fragements in a modal drawer that slides in from the edge of the screen.
- The
up.modal.flavor()
function was deprecated. Set values on theup.modal.flavors
property instead.
- Fix

not honoring{ delay }
option - Fix
[up-observe]
not honoring[up-delay]
modifier - Fix many issues with concurrency and slow server responses for
up.observe()
and[up-observe]

unpoly-bootstrap3.js
after you include the Bootstrap CSS. - Fix some issues when using Unpoly together with Bootstrap modals.
up.popup.attach()
now has a{ html }
option. This allows you to extract popup contents from a HTML string without making a network request.up.tooltip.attach()
now has a{ text }
option which automatically escapes the given string.- Fix a bug on Firefox where the page width would jump by the scrollbar width when opening a modal.
- Fix a bug where modals would close when following a link to a cached destination.
- Events handled by Unpoly selectors will no longer bubble up the DOM.
up.tooltip.attach()
now has a{ text }
option which automatically escapes the given string.- Fix a bug where Unpoly would hang when parsing a page with a
<head>
but without a<title>
- The error notification is now easier to read and can be closed.
- When a target selector was not found in the response, the error notification now offers a link to re-request the response for inspection.
- Compilers can now return an array of functions that will all be called when the element is destroyed.
up.observe()
now works on checkboxes and radio buttons.up.observe()
can now be called with multiple form fields, or any container that contains form fields.- When opening a modal you can now pass an option
{ closable: false }
or set anup-closable='false'
attribute This lets you disable the default methods to close a modal (close button, clicking on the backdrop, pressing ESC). You can also configure this globally by settingup.modal.config.closable
. - Fix a bug where
up.observe(form, options)
would not respect options. - Fix a bug where
up.autosubmit(form)
was not published. - Fix a bug where falling back to non-AJAX page loads on old browsers would not work
up.error()
has been renamed toup.fail()
in order to prevent confusion withup.log.error()
.

- When fragments are replaced without pushing a new history entry, the document title will no longer be changed by default.
- The
{ url }
option forup.destroy()
has been renamed to{ history }
to be more in line withup.replace()
.
- Fix a bug where the back button would not work if the document contained carriage returns (
\r
). - Fix a bug where auto-closed modals and popups would overwrite a changed browser location with their cached "covered URL"
- Links with
up-target
now prefer to update elements within their own layer (page, modal, or popup). Only when the target element doesn't exist within the link's layer, Unpoly will look through all layers from top to bottom.
- Fix a bug where absolutely positioned elements would be offset incorrectly during transitions
- Fix a bug where inserted elements were not revealed within their viewport
- When validating a form with transitions, transitions are no longer applied
- When replacing multiple page fragments at once, only the first fragment is revealed within its viewport
- Calling
up.log.enable()
will now keep logging enabled for the remainder of this browser session (and persist through page reloads). - Added experimental events to observe history changes:
up:history:push
(preventable),up:history:pushed
andup:history:restored
- Fix a bug where prepending or appending multiple elements with
:before
/:after
pseudo-classes would not work correctly in tables. - Fix a bug where calling
up.animate()
with{ duration: 0 }
would return a promise that never resolved. - A click on the page body now closes the popup on
mousedown
instead ofclick
. This fixes the case where an[up-instant]
link removes its parent and thus aclick
event never bubbles up to the body. - When opening a modal, elements behind the dialog can now be moved correctly when scrollbars have custom styles on
::-webkit-scrollbar
. To take advantage of this, make sure to also style scrollbars on elements with an[up-viewport]
attribute. - Fix a bug where
up.tooltip.config
was not publicly acccessible. - Fix a bug where
up.tooltip.isOpen()
was not publicly acccessible. - New tooltip configuration options:
config.openDuration
,config.closeDuration

,groupCollapsed
,groupEnd
)
- Tooltips now open and close much quicker.
- Popups now open and close much quicker.

andup-popup
now support anup-method
modifier.

position: fixed
- Tooltips no longer flicker if an
[up-tooltip]
elements has children - Tooltips no longer flicker if the user moves the mouse too close to the tooltip triangle

- Debugging messages in the developer console are now disabled by default. Call
up.log.enable()
to get them back. - New configuration options in
up.log.config
:up.log.config.enabled
,up.log.config.collapse
andup.log.config.prefix
. - Improve formatting of error messages.
- New experimental utility function
up.util.escapeHtml()
. - If an error is thrown before the document is ready, Unpoly now waits until the document is ready before showing the red error box.
- Fix a bug where submitting a form with file uploads would throw an error
"Cannot convert FormData into a query string"
- Fix a bug where
up.ajax()
would incorrectly re-use form responses even if the form data differed - Fix a bug with the
up-observe
UJS attribute throwing an error when used - Fix a bug where if multiple compilers with destructors are applied to the same element and the element is removed, only the last destructor was called.
- New modal default
up.modal.config.sticky
- New experimental function
up.modal.flavor()
to register modal variants (like drawers). - Fix a bug where compilers and macros with higher priorities were executed last (instead of first like it says in the docs).
- Fix a bug that would occur if two compiled elements, that were nested within each other, would raise an error if the outer element was destroyed and both compilers have destructor functions.
- Fix a bug where replacing the
body
tag would raise an error if any element in the old<body>
had a destructor function. - The promise returned by
up.replace()
now waits for transitions to complete before resolving - Fix a bug where an error would be shown when opening a modal while another modal was still loading
- Fix a bug where two popups would be shown when opening a popup while another popup was still loading
- New options for up.popup.config:
up.popup.config.openDuration
up.popup.config.closeDuration
up.popup.config.openEasing
up.popup.config.closeEasing
- Modals now longer addsa right padding to the
<body>
if the document has no vertical scroll bars - Animations now wait until the browser signals completion of the CSS transition. Previously animations were canceled after its duration, which might or might not have matched to the actual last animation frame.
- When opening a modal while another modal is open, the first modal will be closed (with animation) before the second modal opens (with animation)
- When opening a popup while another popup is open, the first popup will be closed (with animation) before the second popup opens (with animation)
- User-defined macros are now always run before built-in macros.
This way you can set
a[up-dash]
and[up-expand]
from your own macros.
- Fix a bug that would stop transitions from working.

up.modal.config.closeEasing
up.modal.config.backdropOpenAnimation
up.modal.config.backdropCloseAnimation
- Also see the breaking changes regarding modal structure below.
- Calling
up.motion.finish()
without arguments will now complete all animations and transitions on the screen. - Fix a bug where
up.motion.finish()
would not cancel CSS transitions that were still in progress. - Fix a bug where
up-active
classes where not removed from links when the destination was already preloaded.
-
Animations when opening or closing a modal now only affect the viewport around the dialog. The backdrop is animated separately. This allows animations like "zoom in", which would look strange if the backdrop would zoom in together with the dialog.
-
The modal's HTML structure has been changed to include a
.up-modal-backdrop
element:<div class="up-modal"> <div class="up-modal-backdrop"> <div class="up-modal-viewport"> <div class="up-modal-dialog"> <div class="up-modal-content"> ... </div> <div class="up-modal-close" up-close>X</div> </div> </div> </div>
-
The
z-index
properties for modal elements have been changed. They might change again in the future. -
The modal will now take over the document's scrollbars after the open animation has finished. In earlier versions the modal took over as soon as the animation had started.
-
Calling
up.motion.finish()
with an element will now also complete animations/transitions on children of the given element.
- Animations
move-to-*
andmove-from-*
now use CSS transforms instead of manipulating the bounding box margins. - Fix
up.util.trim()
not working properly. up.morph()
no longer throws an error if called without anoptions
object- Custom transitions can now call
up.morph()
to refer to other transitions - Fix a bug where following a link to a preloaded destination would keep the link marked with a up-active class forever.
- Unpoly forms can now submit file uploads via AJAX.
- You can now position tooltips on the left or right side of an element.
- Tooltips have a darker background color.
- The tooltip CSS has been changed to be easier to override.
- Fix a bug where the document title wasn't restored when using the back and forward buttons
- Fix a bug where links would be followed multiple times if the link
had an
up-dash
attribute without a value and also anup-target
attribute. - Fix a bug where a link would be followed multiple times if the link's
click area was expanded using
[up-expand]
and if the link also had anup-dash
attribute. up.destroy()
now returns a resolved deferred if the given selector or jQuery collection does not exist
- Fix a bug where using the
up-confirm
attribute would result in an infinite loop - Unpoly no longer displays confirmation dialogs when preloading a link that
has both
up-preload
andup-confirm
attributes.
up.proxy.idle()
is nowup.proxy.isIdle()
up.proxy.busy()
is nowup.proxy.isBusy()
- Event
up:proxy:busy
is nowup:proxy:slow
- Event
up:proxy:idle
is nowup:proxy:idle
- New function
up.macro()
. This registers a compiler that is run before all other compilers. up.compiler()
has a new options{ priority }
. Compilers with higher priorities are run first.- Fix a bug where trying to apply another transition on an element could throw a Maximum call stack exceeded error if the element was already transitioning.
up-toggle
has been renamed toup-switch
- The project has been renamed to Unpoly.
- All functions remain in the
up
namespace, so e.g.up.replace()
is still calledup.replace()
. - All UJS functionality remains unchanged, so e.g.
up-target
is still calledup-target
. - The Bower package has been renamed to
unpoly
. - The Ruby gem for the Rails bindings has been renamed to
unpoly-rails
. - The new JavaScript and stylesheet assets are:
- If you're using the Bootstrap integration the new assets are:
- Elements can now be persisted during page updates using the
up-keep
attribute. up.proxy.ajax()
is now available asup.ajax()
.up.ajax()
can now handle nested objects as{ data }
option (used to pass form parameters).
up.implant()
has been renamed toup.extract()
.
- The logging output to the developer console is now much quieter and more useful
- New UJS attribute
[up-toggle]
to show or hide part of a form if certain options are selected or boxes are checked. - Links can now have an optional
up-confirm
attribute. This opens a confirmation dialog with the given message before the link is followed or the modal/popup is opened. - New function
up.off()
. This unregisters an event listener previously bound withup.on()
. - If a container contains more than one link, you can now set the value of the
up-expand
attribute to a CSS selector to define which link should be expanded. - You can now configure a list of safe HTTP methods in
up.proxy.config.safeMethods
. The proxy cache will only cache safe requests and will clear the entire cache after a unsafe request. - Loading modals and popups will now open if there is a fragment update between the modal/popup's request and response.
up.follow()
andup.replace()
now have an option{ failTarget }
. Use it to define the selector to replace if the server responds with an error.[up-target]
andup-follow
now have a modifying attributeup-fail-target
. Use it to define the selector to replace if the server responds with an error.- New utility method
up.util.reject()
- New utility method
up.util.only()
- New utility method
up.util.except()
- Fix a bug where modals could no longer be opened on some browsers
- When preventing an event emitted by an async function, that function now rejects its promise.
- Async functions that encounter an error now prefer to reject promises with an
Error
object (instead of a string with the error message)
-
By default Unpoly now converts
PUT
,PATCH
andDELETE
requests toPOST
requests that carry their original method in a form parameter named_method
. This is to prevent unexpected redirect behavior.Web frameworks like Ruby on Rails or Sinatra are aware of the
_method
parameter and use its value as the method for routing.You can configure this behavior in
up.proxy.config.wrapMethods
andup.proxy.config.wrapMethodParam
. -
The requested selector is now sent to the server as a request header
X-Up-Target
(this used to beX-Up-Selector
). If you are usingunpoly-rails
, you can access it throughup.target
(this used to beup.selector
).
- When used with the Ruby on Rails unobtrusive scripting adapter (
rails_ujs.js
), now prevents duplicate form submission when Unpoly attributes are mixed withdata-method
attributes. a[up-instant]
now works with modals and popups[up-expand]
now works with modals and popups
- When
up.observe()
is used with a delay of zero, the callback is invoked instantly (instead of being invoked in the next animation frame).
-
You can now configure
up.proxy.config.maxRequests
to limit the maximum number of concurrent requests. Additional requests are queued. This currently ignores preloading requests.You might find it useful to set this to
1
in full-stack integration tests (e.g. Selenium). -
Allow to disable animations globally with
up.motion.enabled = false
. This can be useful in full-stack integration tests like a Selenium test suite. -
New function
up.motion.isEnabled
to check if animations will be performed. -
up.popup.attach()
now throws a helpful error when trying to attach a popup to a non-existing element -
New option
up.modal.config.history
to configure if modals change the browser URL (defaults totrue
) -
New option
up.popup.config.history
to configure if popup change the browser URL (defaults tofalse
). -
Fix CSS for popups with a position of
"bottom-left"
.
- Popups and modals used to close automatically whenever an element behind the overlay was replaced. This behavior is still in effect, but only if the replacement was triggered by a link or element from within the popup or modal.
- Popups and modals no longer raise an error if their (hidden) overlay was closed before the response was received.
- Popups and modals are now compiled before they are animated.
- Fix an error where
up.form.config
was not published. This causedunpoly-bootstrap3.js
to throw an error.
- New function
up.autosubmit()
and selector[up-autosubmit]
to observe a form or field and submit the form when a value changes. up.observe()
and[up-observe]
can now be applied to<form>
tags. The callback is run when any field in the form changes.- New function
up.browser.canPushState()
to detect if the browser supportshistory.pushState
. - New function
up.browser.canCssTransition()
to detect if the browser supports animation with CSS transitions. - New function
up.browser.canInputEvent()
to detect if the browser supports theinput
event. - Allow to configure a default delay for
up.observe()
. - Popups now have events
up:popup:open
,up:popup:opened
,up:popup:close
andup:popup:closed
. - The destructor returned by
up.observe()
now properly unregisters event listeners.
up.observe()
now takes the callback function as a last argument. The callback can now longer be passed as a.change
option.
- Published the up.util module. This might save you from loading something like Underscore.js.
- Support for server-side live validation of forms
using the
[up-validate]
selector. - Support for non-standard CSS selectors from jQuery,
such as
:has
or:visible
. - Allow to refer to the current element as
&
in target selectors. This is useful to reference containers that contain the triggering element, e.g.<a href="/path" up-target=".container:has(&)">
- Improve automatic generation of selectors for elements when no explicit selector is given.
- Forms with
file
inputs will now cause forms to fall back to a standard submission without AJAX. In a future release we will be able to submit file inputs via AJAX. - The request cache now reuses responses for
body
andhtml
when asked for other selectors. - Server responses can now change the document title by including an
X-Up-Title
header.
a[up-target]
andup.follow
now scroll to a #hash in the link's destination URL- When up.replace cannot make a change in old browsers, return an unresolved promise instead of a resolved promise.
- When morphing, prevent flickering caused by long repaint frames
- When morphing don't un-highlight current navigation sections in the element that is being destroyed. This makes for a smoother transition.
- Fix a bug where compositing wasn't forced properly during an animation
Refactored internals. No API changes.
- When marking links as
.up-current
, also consider the URL behind a current modal or popup to be the "current" URL.
up.bus.emit()
is nowup.emit()
- When
up.first()
finds no match, returnundefined
instead ofnull
.
up.on()
now returns a function that unbinds the events when called- Fixed a bug where restoring previous scroll positions was not worked in situations where the same operation would also reveal the replaced element.
- Various bugfixes
- Unpoly can now be used with
jQuery.noConflict()
.
-
Remove
up.slot
, which was poorly implemented, untested, and not much better than the:empty
pseudo-selector which has great browser support -
Replaced the
up.bus.on(...)
event registry with vanilla DOM events bound todocument
. Also renamed events in the process.Instead of the old ...
up.bus.on('fragment:ready', function($fragment) { ... };
... you now need to write ...
$(document).on('up:fragment:inserted', function(event) { var $fragment = $(this); ... };
... or shorter:
up.on('up:fragment:inserted', function(event, $fragment) { ... };
-
Renamed
up.ready()
toup.hello()
. This will emit anup:event:inserted
event for the given element, causing it to be compiled etc. -
up.popup.open()
has been renamed toup.popup.attach()
. -
up.modal.open()
has been split into two methodsup.modal.visit(url)
andup.modal.follow($link)
. -
up.tooltip.open()
has been renamed toup.tooltip.attach()
. -
Tooltips now escape HTML by default; To use HTML content, use an
[up-tooltip-html]
attribute instead. -
Module configurations are now simple properties like
up.layout.config
instead of methods likeup.layout.defaults(...)
.Instead of the old ...
up.layout.defaults({ snap: 100 });
... you now need to write:
up.layout.config.snap = 100;
- Fix a bug where browsers without CSS animation support would crash after an animation call
- Expose
up.error()
as public API. This prints an error message to the error console and throws a newError
with that message. - Fix a million bugs related to compatibility with IE9 and IE10
- Rework the scrolling implementation so we don't need to scroll elements to the top before replacing them.
up.ajax()
now only caches responses with a status code of200 OK
- When a link with an
[up-close]
attribute is clicked, the link's default action will only be prevented if the link was actually within a modal or popup. - When revealing an element, Up will now compute the correct element position if there are additional positioning contexts between the viewport and the element
- New option "top" for
up.reveal()
: Whether to scroll the viewport so that the first element row aligns with the top edge of the viewport. Without this option,up.reveal()
scrolls as little as possible. - Allow to animate scrolling when the
document
is the viewport. - New
up.layout
settingfixedRight
that contains selectors for elements that are anchored to the right edge of the screen. When opening a modal, these elements will be prevented from jumping around. If you're usingunpoly-bootstrap3.js
, this will default to['.navbar-fixed-top', '.navbar-fixed-bottom', '.footer']
. - Fix a bug in
unpoly-rails
where the gem would fail toinclude
itself in some versions of Ruby and Rails.
-
Interactions that would result in an URL change ("pushState") now fall back to a full page load if Unpoly was booted from a non-GET request. More information about the reasons for this.
This currently works out of the box if you're using Unpoly via the
unpoly-rails
Rubygem. If you're integrating Unpoly with Bower or manually, you need to have your server app set an_up_request_method
cookie with the current request method on every request.
- Fix a bug where the proxy would remain busy forever if a response failed.
- Fix a bug where hovering multiple times over the same [up-preload] link would not trigger a new request after the cache expired
- The default viewport is now
document
instead of the<body>
element.
- While following links and submitting forms will still reveal elements by default,
direct calls of
up.replace()
no longer do. This behavior can be activated using the{ reveal: true }
option.
- Options to control scrolling and cache use for
up.submit()
,up.follow()
,up.visit()
,form[up-target]
anda[up-target]
.
up.reveal()
now only reveals the first 150 pixels of an element.
- Viewport scroll positions are saved when the URL changes and restored when the user hits the back/forward button
- Allow to link to the previous page using
[up-back]
- Allow to restore previous scroll state using
[up-restore-scroll]
- Instead of saying
<tag up-something="true">
you can now simply say<tag up-something>
. - Create this Changelog.
- The option
options.scroll
and attributeup-scroll
have been removed. Instead you can use the boolean optionoptions.reveal
orup-reveal
to indicate whether an element should be revealed within the viewport before replacement. - The string
up.history.defaults('popTarget')
is now an array of selectorsup.history.defaults('popTargets')
- Change transition implementation so child elements with collapsing margins don't reposition within the animated element
- Elements are now being revealed within their viewport before they are updated
- Elements that are prepended or appended using
:before
or:after
pseudo-selectors are now scrolled into view after insertion. - New option
up.layout.defaults('snap')
lets you define a number of pixels under which Unpoly will snap to the top edge of the viewport when revealing an element - You can now make
up.reveal()
aware of fixed navigation bars blocking the viewport by setting new optionsup.layout.defaults('fixedTop')
andup.layout.defaults('fixedBottom')
.
up.reveal()
can now reveal content in modals and containers withoverflow-y: scroll
.- Changing the default configuration of an Unpoly module now raises an error if a config key is unknown.
- Links linking to
"#"
are now never marked as.up-current
.
- You can now include
unpoly-bootstrap3.js
andunpoly-bootstrap3.css
to configure Unpoly to play nice with Bootstrap 3.
- Like Bootstrap, the Unpoly modal will now scroll the main document viewport instead of the modal dialog box.
- Unpoly will now emit events
proxy:busy
andproxy:idle
whenever it is loading or is done loading content over HTTP. - Add an option
up.proxy.defaults('busyDelay')
to delay theproxy:busy
event in order to prevent flickering of loading spinners.
- Now longer throws an error if the current location does not match an
up-alias
wildcard (bugfix).
- Allow
up-alias
to match URLs by prefix (up-alias="prefix*"
).
- Fix what Unpoly considers the current URL of a modal or popup if multiple updates change different parts of the modal or popup.
- Don't replace elements within a container that matches
.up-destroying
or.up-ghost
(which are cloned elements for animation purposes).
- Make sure that an expanded link will be considered a link by adding an
up-follow
attribute if it doesn't already have anup-target
attribute.
- Correctly position tooltips when the user has scrolled the main document viewports.
- Allow popups within modal dialogs.
- Use up.proxy when submitting a form.
- When marking links as
.up-current
, allow to additionally match on a space-separated list of URLs in anup-alias
attribute.
- Bugfix: Don't consider forms with an
up-target
attribute to be a link.
- New selector
[up-expand]
to enlarge click areas
- Animation options for
up.tooltip.open
- Consider the left mouse button clicked when
event.button
is undefined (as happens with `.click()``)
- Rename option
.origin
to.position
inup.popup
andup.tooltip
- Don't follow links while CTRL, Meta or Shift keys are pressed
- Show backtraces for Unpoly errors
- Rename method
up.awaken()
toup.compiler()
- Option to have a custom HTTP method for
up.follow()
- No longer preloads links with unsafe HTTP methods
