API

Content and Content Selector

The tooltip content can be specified either by the content prop or the contentSelector prop.

content must be a text string that will be displayed as is in the tooltip.

It's useful for most of the use cases of a tooltip however sometimes you need to display some more complex content, with interactive elements or formatted text.

To do so, you may use the contentSelector prop that allows to specify the selector of an element from the DOM.

The best option is to use a template HTML element although you may also use a plain element. In this case, it will remain in the DOM and will be clones in the tooltip.

Content Actions

The contentActions prop allows to handle interactions within the tooltip content.

Each element inside the content parent may configure its own action since it can be queried using the key-selector.

One event by element is possible so far as elements are referenced by selector. The last one declared in the contentActions object has precedence over the previous ones.

<script>
    import { useTooltip } from '@untemps/svelte-use-tooltip'
</script>

<div use:useTooltip={{
    contentSelector: '#content',
    contentActions: {
        '#button1': {
            eventType: 'mouseenter',
            callback: (arg) => console.log(arg),
            callbackParams: ['Haha you\'re hovering the button 1'],
            closeOnCallback: false
        },
        '#button2': {
            eventType: 'click',
            callback: (arg1, arg2) => console.log(arg1, arg2),
            callbackParams: ['Haha you\'ve clicked the', 'button 2'],
            closeOnCallback: true
        },
    }
}}>Hover me</div>
<span id="content">
    <button id="button1">Action 1</button>
    <button id="button2">Action 2</button>
</span>

* selector

If you need the whole tooltip content to be interactive, you can use the special * key:

<script>
    import { useTooltip } from '@untemps/svelte-use-tooltip'
</script>

<div use:useTooltip={{
    content: 'Foo',
    contentActions: {
        '*': {
            eventType: 'click',
            callback: (arg) => console.log(arg),
            callbackParams: ['Haha you clicked the tooltip'],
            closeOnCallback: true
        }
    }
}}>Hover me</div>

If you combine the * selector with other events, its callback will be triggered along with the other ones.
