This section briefly explains how to create a simple Tooltip component and configure its available functionalities in angular.
The following list of dependencies are required to use Tooltip component in your application.
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-base
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-angular-base
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-popups
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-buttons
You can use Angular CLI
to setup your Angular applications.
To install Angular CLI use the following command.
npm install -g @angular/cli
Start a new Angular application using below Angular CLI command.
ng new my-app
cd my-app
Syncfusion packages are distributed in npm as @syncfusion
scoped packages. You can get all the Angular Syncfusion package from npm link.
Currently, Syncfusion provides two types of package structures for Angular components,
Syncfusion Angular packages(>=20.2.36
) has been moved to the Ivy distribution to support the Angular Ivy rendering engine and the package are compatible with Angular version 12 and above. To download the package use the below command.
Add @syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups
package to the application.
npm install @syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups --save
For Angular version below 12, you can use the legacy (ngcc) package of the Syncfusion Angular components. To download the ngcc
package use the below.
Add @syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups@ngcc
package to the application.
npm install @syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups@ngcc --save
To mention the ngcc package in the package.json
file, add the suffix -ngcc
with the package version as below.
@syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups:"20.2.38-ngcc"
Note: If the ngcc tag is not specified while installing the package, the Ivy Library Package will be installed and this package will throw a warning.
@syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups
.import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
//Syncfusion ej2-angular-popups module
import { TooltipModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
@NgModule({
imports: [ BrowserModule, TooltipModule ], //declaration of TooltipModule module into NgModule
declarations: [ AppComponent ],
bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule { }
styles.css
.[style.css]
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-angular-buttons/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups/styles/material.css";
We can also use CRG to generate combined component styles.
Modify the template in app.component.ts
file to render the Tooltip
component. Add the Angular Tooltip by using <ejs-tooltip>
selector in template
section of the app.component.ts file.
import { Component, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: `
<ejs-tooltip id='tooltip' content='Tooltip content'>
Hover Me
</ejs-tooltip>`,
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent { }
ng serve --open
The following code example depicts the way to initialize Tooltip on a single element.
import { Component, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: `
<div id='container' style="display: inline-block; position: relative; left: 50%;top: 100px;transform: translateX(-50%);">
<ejs-tooltip id='tooltip' content='Tooltip content' target="#target">
<button ejs-button id="target">Show Tooltip</button>
</ejs-tooltip>
</div>`,
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent { }
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { TooltipModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups';
import { ButtonModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-buttons';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
/**
* Module
*/
@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
TooltipModule,
ButtonModule
],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
It is possible to create Tooltip on multiple targets within a container. To do so, define the selector
property with specific target
elements - so that the tooltip will be initialized only on those matched targets within a container. In this case, the Tooltip content
gets assigned from the title
attribute of the target element.
Refer the following code example, to create a Tooltip on multiple targets within a container.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: `
<div id="tool">
<ejs-tooltip target='.e-info' position='RightCenter'>
<form id="details" role="form">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="info">User Name</td>
<td>
<input type="text" class="e-info" name="firstname" title="Please enter your name"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="info">Email Address</td>
<td>
<input type="text" class="e-info" name="email" title="Enter a valid email address">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="info">Password</td>
<td>
<input type="password" class="e-info" name="password" title="Be at least 8 characters length">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="info">Confirm Password</td>
<td>
<input type="password" class="e-info" name="Cpwd" title="Re-enter your password">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input ejs-button id="sample" class="center" type="submit" value="Submit"></td>
<td><input ejs-button id="clear" class="center" type="reset" value="Reset"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</ejs-tooltip>
</div>
`,
})
export class AppComponent { }
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { TooltipModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-popups';
import { ButtonModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-buttons';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
/**
* Module
*/
@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
TooltipModule,
ButtonModule
],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
#loader {
color: #008cff;
font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'calibiri';
font-size: 16px;
height: 40px;
left: 45%;
position: absolute;
top: 45%;
width: 30%;
}
#tool {
width: 500px;
margin: auto;
transform: translateX(10%);
}
#details table th,
#details table td {
padding: 20px 10px;
text-align: left;
}
#details .info {
font-size: 14px;
text-align: left;
font-weight: 500;
}
.center {
position: relative;
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);
}
In the above sample,
details
refers to the container’s id, and the target.e-info
refers to the target elements available within that container.
