Parent option for progress bar

[drewhamlett]

I could ditch nprogress if we had a parent option for Turbolinks.

Sometimes it's useful to be able to set a container where the progress bar will be placed at.

Thanks!

One reason the progress bar is on the html element is to prevent it from being replaced when changing pages. This allows it to smoothly finish its animation after the new content is inserted.

Can you explain your specific use case?

I had a need for this too, where I had a sidebar and main content area and wanted the progress bar to appear in the main content area only. I solved it using the following:

html.turbolinks-progress-bar::before {
  margin-left: 220px; // where 220px is sidebar width
}

This way you can also alter it responsively as needed.
