barbaPrefetch on links (like v1)

[S1SYPHOS]

The problem

I cannot get barba v1 prefetch behaviour to work

Description

Expected behaviour

I want to load links on hover instead when in viewpoint (v1 behaviour)

Actual behaviour

Barba loads dozen of links (because viewpoint loading)

Code To Reproduce Issue

Just the prefetch demo code, really:

import barba from '@barba/core';
import barbaPrefetch from '@barba/prefetch';

// tell Barba to use the prefetch module
barba.use(barbaPrefetch);

// init Barba
barba.init();

---

Environment

• barba.js:
  
  
  
  • "@barba/core": "^2.8.0",
  
  
  • "@barba/prefetch": "^2.1.8"
  
  
• Firefox 70 / Fedora Linux

Hi @S1SYPHOS,

Please, check this…
We really need more details / context / explanations to provide some help…
Another option is to join us on Slack.

@S1SYPHOS,

Do not use @barba/prefetch.
By default v2 has the same hover/prefetch behaviour as v1…

Thank you very much, totally missed that - thought prefetching was optional with v2.
