溢出时如何增加元素的高度

Question

I have a timeline component and the data in it is being set dynamically mapping an array. Everything works fine, but when I add more data, the element which should be overflowed on y if the max height is reached, isn't displayed entirely. I tried everything, but I don't get the expected result. Here is my CodeSandBox .

My scss file :

// Mixins
@import "mixins";

// Timeline
// $timeline-color: #ee4d4d;

.timelineWrapper{
    overflow-y: auto;
    min-height: 30vh;
    max-height: 80vh;

}  

#timeline {
    line-height: 1.5em;
    font-size: 14px;
    width: 90%;
    margin: 30px auto;
    position: relative;
    // overflow-x: hidden;
//   overflow-y: scroll;
  
    @include prefix(transition, all .4s ease);
    
    &, 
    *, 
    *:before,
    *:after {
        box-sizing: border-box;
        -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
        -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
    }

    &:before {
        content:"";
        width: 5px;
        height: 100%;
        background: #26C17E;
        left: 50%;
        top: 0;
        position: absolute;
        
    }

    &:after {
        content: "";
        clear: both;
        display: table;
        width: 100%;
        
    }
    
    .timeline-item {
        margin-bottom: 50px;
        position: relative;
        
        @extend %clearfix;

        .timeline-icon {
            background:white ;

            height: 50px;

            top: 0;
            left: 50%;
            // overflow: hidden;
            margin-left: -23px;
            @include prefix(border-radius, 50%);



            // .year {
            //  position: relative;
            //  text-align: center;

        }

                    right: inherit;

Component:

<>
 <section>
 <h1>Education</h1>
 <div id="timeline" className='timelineWrapper'>
     {data.map((info)=>(
             <div className="timeline-item">
                 <span className="timeline-icon">
                     <span>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>
                 <span className="year">{info.date}</span>
                 </span>
                 <div className='timeline-content'>
                 <h2>{info.title}</h2>
                 <p>{info.text}</p>
                 </div>
             </div>
     ))}
 </div>
 </section>
 </>  

Component should have an internal scroll with a height equal to 30vh* (30%) and a max height of 80vh (80%):

I need that green bar be displayed proportionally with how many items are being added there. Could you help me please? #timeline is the container and that is the green line:

&:before {
        content:"";
        width: 5px;
        height: 100%;
        background: #26C17E;
        left: 50%;
        top: 0;
        position: absolute;

By adding a div with timelineContainer class in App.js and changing timeline.scss a little bit, I am getting I think what you want. Here is a live CodeSandbox and the code:

App.js:

import "./styles.css";

export default function App(props) {
  const { data } = props;
  return (
    <section>
      <h1>Education</h1>
      <div className="timelineContainer">
        <div id="timeline" className="timelineWrapper">
          {data.map((info, index) => (
            <div className="timeline-item" key={index}>
              <span className="timeline-icon">
                <span>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>
                <span className="year">{info.date}</span>
              </span>
              <div className="timeline-content">
                <h2>{info.title}</h2>
                <p>{info.text}</p>
              </div>
            </div>
          ))}
        </div>
      </div>
    </section>
  );
}

Timeline.scss:

// Mixins
@import "mixins";

// Timeline
// $timeline-color: #ee4d4d;
 

.timelineContainer{
    overflow-y: auto;
    min-height: 30vh;
    max-height: 80vh;
}

.timelineWrapper {
    line-height: 1.5em;
    font-size: 14px;
    width: 90%;
    margin: 30px auto;
    position: relative;
   
    // overflow-x: hidden;
//   overflow-y: scroll;
  
    @include prefix(transition, all .4s ease);
    
    &, 
    *,
