You have some options how to use this library. As a component or as a directive.
You can also use it as a Standalone component (new angular way) or as a module (the original angular way).
In your root standalone component (e.g. app.component.ts) you need to add NgxScrollTopComponent into your imports array.
...
+ import { NgxScrollTopComponet } from 'ngx-scrolltop';
...
@Component({
selector: 'app',
standalone: true,
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
imports: [
+ NgxScrollTopComponent
],
})
export class AppComponent { }And then in app.component.html you just need to add your new button. Usually at the end of your file.
<ngx-scrolltop></ngx-scrolltop>See options and examples for more details...
In your root standalone component (e.g. app.component.ts) you need to add NgxScrollTopDirective into your imports array.
...
+ import { NgxScrollTopDirective } from 'ngx-scrolltop';
...
@Component({
selector: 'app',
standalone: true,
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
imports: [
+ NgxScrollTopDirective
],
})
export class AppComponent { }And then in app.component.html you just need to create your new custom element... (e.g. <span>, <div>, <button>, ...)
<span ngxScrollTop class="my-custom-element-with-my-style__no-lib-style-applied-here">
↑ My Custom Element. ↑
</span>Important note: No style applied, everything is up to you. Of course I recommend position: fixed, ...

This is the original Angular way how to import libraries (via modules). You can use it as a component or as a directive as well.
In your root module (e.g. app.module.ts) you need to add NgxScrollTopModule into your imports array.
...
+ import { NgxScrollTopModule } from 'ngx-scrolltop';
...
@NgModule({
imports: [
...
+ NgxScrollTopModule
],
...
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }Next steps you can see above in Standalone Component or Standalone Directive or in examples.
