MaterializeCSS Sticky Footer - EmberJS - 15 Sep 2015


I’ve been using the MaterializeCSS framework on my latest side project ComboSumo.com. I’ve been pretty happy with it so far, but I’ve had to use a few workarounds to support Safari.

If you’ve been using the sticky footer solution provided by the framework, here’s a quick example of how to get it to work with EmberJS, as well as the Safari browser.

The key to getting it to work is applying the main flexbox rules to body > .ember-view instead of the body tag. You’ll also want to include additional flexbox rules to support all of the browsers.

app/application/template.hbs


  <main>
    {{outlet}}
  </main>

  {{footer-section}}

app/components/footer-section/component.js

  import Ember from 'ember';

  export default Ember.Component.extend({
    tagName: 'footer',
    classNames: ['page-footer']
  });

app/styles/global.sass

  body > .ember-view
    display: -webkit-box
    display: -webkit-flex
    display: -ms-flexbox
    display: flex
    min-height: 100vh
    -webkit-box-orient: vertical
    -webkit-box-direction: normal
    -webkit-flex-direction: column
    -ms-flex-direction: column
    flex-direction: column

  main
    -webkit-box-flex: 1
    -webkit-flex: 1 0 auto
    -ms-flex: 1 0 auto
    flex: 1 0 auto
