Scroll to top of div in AngularJS?

I’ve had the same issue and I usually solve it with the following generic directive. It listens to a given event and whenever that event happens, it scrolls the element back to y = 0. All you need to do is $broadcast the event in your controller when your list changes.

angular.module("ui.scrollToTopWhen", [])
.directive("scrollToTopWhen", function ($timeout) {
  function link (scope, element, attrs) {
    scope.$on(attrs.scrollToTopWhen, function () {
      $timeout(function () {
        angular.element(element)[0].scrollTop = 0;
      });
    });
  }
});

Usage:

// Controller
$scope.items = [...];
$scope.$broadcast("items_changed")

// Template
<div id="myList" scroll-to-top-when="items_changed">
