Electron tooltip

Description

This module is intended to be used in Electron applications. It allows for tooltips to flow outside the window bounds they're called from.

Installation

npm install --save-dev electron-tooltip

Usage

After importing the module, it will search for elements that have the data-tooltip attribute attached. A configuration object can be passed in when calling the tooltip function.

// in the render process..
const tt = require('electron-tooltip')
tt({
  // config properties
})

Position, width and offset options can be overriden on a per element basis by using the data-tooltip-{option} attribute.

<!-- basic example: -->
<a href="http://www.facebook.com" data-tooltip="Go to Facebook" data-tooltip-position="bottom"></a>

Configuration options

option	description	default	values
position	Tooltip direction	top	left, top, right, bottom
width	Width of the tooltip. If width is set to auto, the tooltip will not wrap content	auto	> 0
offset	Offset from the element to the tooltip	0	> 0
style	Object for overwriting default styles	{}
customContent	Function that will be called each time the tooltip is shown. Takes two arguments: the element on which it was called, and the current value of `data-tooltip`. It should return a string which will be used instead of the `data-tooltip` value	undefined

// example
// in the render process..
const tt = require('electron-tooltip')
tt({
  position: 'bottom',
  width: 200,
  style: {
    backgroundColor: '#f2f3f4',
    borderRadius: '4px'
  }
})
