In a Web Component How to show tooltip & hide tooltip when clicking outside or when another tooltip clicked


I have this Web Component that has cards with tooltips.

I am trying to accomplish 3 things. I am trying use Vanilla Javascript vs jQuery or other libraries.

  1. Show when a button is clicked then hide if button is clicked again. This is currently working.

  2. Hide when clicked outside of button. I tried selecting the document then comparing clicked element with the element I want to target, having trouble with targeting.

  3. Only show 1 tooltip at a time so if 1 is open then you click another only the second one shows. Not sure how to approach this.

Here is what I have so far.

class BuildABox extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.querySelectorAll('[data-tooltip]').forEach((button) =>
      button.addEventListener('click', this.toggleTooltip.bind(this))
    );
  }

  toggleTooltip(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    const toolTip = e.currentTarget.lastChild.previousSibling;
    toolTip.classList.toggle('tw-invisible');
  }
}

customElements.define('build-a-box', BuildABox);
<button id="info-btn" aria-label="Information" type="button" data-info="{{ block.settings.product_description }}">
  <div data-tooltip="tooltip" class="tw-w-12">
    <svg  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
          viewBox="0 0 24 24"
          fill="currentColor"
          class="w-12 h-12"
    >
      <path fill-rule="evenodd" d="M2.25 12c0-5.385 4.365-9.75 9.75-9.75s9.75 4.365 9.75 9.75-4.365 9.75-9.75 9.75S2.25 17.385 2.25 12zm8.706-1.442c1.146-.573 2.437.463 2.126 1.706l-.709 2.836.042-.02a.75.75 0 01.67 1.34l-.04.022c-1.147.573-2.438-.463-2.127-1.706l.71-2.836-.042.02a.75.75 0 11-.671-1.34l.041-.022zM12 9a.75.75 0 100-1.5.75.75 0 000 1.5z" clip-rule="evenodd" />

</button>


Solution

  • You don't want to create dependencies, thus keep as much of the logic inside the Web Component

    Using shadowDOM here because it keeps the Web Component small
    and you can style with global CSS using ::part

    Key concept: <my-button tooltip>
    The tooltip attribute determines of it is visible, or not

    I whacked in additional styling to show more styling options.
    For deep-deep-details on <slot> and ::slotted read: ::slotted CSS selector for nested children in shadowDOM slot

    same code in: https://jsfiddle.net/WebComponents/xg3ns6od/

    customElements.define('my-button', class extends HTMLElement {
      constructor() {
        super().attachShadow({mode:"open"}).innerHTML =
        `<style>`+
          `button{ width:120px; cursor:pointer } ::slotted(div){ pointer-events:none }` + 
          `[name="tooltip"]::slotted(div) { color:blue; font-size: 1.2rem }`+
          `[name="label"]::slotted(div) { font-size:1em;font-weight:bold }`+
          `:host([tooltip]) svg { fill:green!important } `+
          `:host(:hover:not([tooltip])) path{ scale:1.2; transform-origin: center }` +
          `:host(:not([tooltip])) [name="tooltip"]::slotted(div) { visibility:hidden } `+
        `</style>`+
        `<button part="button"><svg part="icon" viewBox="0 0 2400 2400">`+
          `<path fill-rule="evenodd" d="m225 1200c0-539 437-975 975-975s975 437 975 975-437 975-975 975-975-436-975-975zm871-144c115-57 244 46 213 171l-71 284 4-2a75 75 90 0167 134l-4 2c-115 57-244-46-213-171l71-284-4 2a75 75 90 11-67-134l4-2zm104-156a75 75 90 100-150 75 75 90 000 150z"/>`+
          `</svg><slot name="tooltip"></slot>`+
                `<slot name="label"></slot></button>`;
      }
      connectedCallback(){
        this.onclick = () => this.tooltip = !this.tooltip;
        this.globalListener = document.addEventListener("click",
                                      (evt) => this.tooltip = evt.target == this )
      }
      get tooltip()   { return this.hasAttribute("tooltip") }
      set tooltip(val){ this.toggleAttribute("tooltip",val) }
    
      disconnectedCallback(){
        document.removeEventListener("click", this.globalListener);
      }
    });
    /* style parts IN shadowDOM */
    my-button::part(icon){ fill:red }
    
    /* style lightDOM! */
    my-button[tooltip] [slot="tooltip"] { background:lightgreen }
    <my-button>
      <div slot="tooltip">Tooltip 1</div>
      <div slot="label">Product Description</div>
