## Installation

```sh
npm install react-tooltip
```

or

```sh
yarn add react-tooltip
```

## Usage

### Using NPM

1 . Require react-tooltip after installation

```js
import ReactTooltip from 'react-tooltip';
```

2 . Add data-tip = "your placeholder" to your element

```jsx
<p data-tip="hello world">Tooltip</p>
```

3 . Include react-tooltip component

```jsx
<ReactTooltip />
```

### Standalone

You can import `node_modules/react-tooltip/dist/index.js` into your page. Please make sure that you have already imported `react` and `react-dom` into your page.

## Options

Notes:

- The tooltip sets `type: dark` `place: top` `effect: float` as **default** attributes. You don't have to add these options if you don't want to change the defaults
- The option you set on `<ReactTooltip />` component will be implemented on every tooltip in a same page: `<ReactTooltip effect="solid" />`
- The option you set on a specific element, for example: `<a data-type="warning"></a>` will only affect this specific tooltip

### Security Note

The `html` option allows a tooltip to directly display raw HTML. This is a security risk if any of that content is supplied by the user. Any user-supplied content must be sanitized, using a package like [sanitize-html](https://www.npmjs.com/package/sanitize-html). We chose not to include sanitization after discovering it [increased our package size](https://github.com/wwayne/react-tooltip/issues/429) too much - we don't want to penalize people who don't use the `html` option.

#### JSX Note
You can use React's [`renderToStaticMarkup`-function](https://reactjs.org/docs/react-dom-server.html#rendertostaticmarkup) to use JSX instead of HTML. You still need to set `data-html={true}`.
**Example:**
```jsx
import ReactDOMServer from 'react-dom/server';
[...]
<p data-html={true} data-tip={ReactDOMServer.renderToString(<div>I am <b>JSX</b> content</div>)}>
  Hover me
</p>
```

#### Note

1. **data-tip** is necessary, because `<ReactTooltip />` finds the tooltip via this attribute
2. **data-for** corresponds to the **id** of `<ReactTooltip />`
3. When using react component as tooltip, you can have many `<ReactTooltip />` in a page but they should have different **id**s

## Static Methods

### ReactTooltip.hide(target)

> Hide the tooltip manually, the target is optional, if no target passed in, all existing tooltips will be hidden

```jsx
import ReactTooltip from 'react-tooltip'

<p ref={ref => this.fooRef = ref} data-tip='tooltip'></p>
<button onClick={() => { ReactTooltip.hide(this.fooRef) }}></button>
<ReactTooltip />
```

### ReactTooltip.rebuild()

> Rebinding all tooltips

### ReactTooltip.show(target)

> Show specific tooltip manually, for example:

```jsx
import ReactTooltip from 'react-tooltip'

<p ref={ref => this.fooRef = ref} data-tip='tooltip'></p>
<button onClick={() => { ReactTooltip.show(this.fooRef) }}></button>
<ReactTooltip />
```

## Troubleshooting

### 1. Using tooltip within the modal (e.g. [react-modal](https://github.com/reactjs/react-modal))

The component was designed to set `<ReactTooltip />` once and then use tooltip everywhere, but a lot of people get stuck when using this component in a modal. You can read the discussion [here](https://github.com/wwayne/react-tooltip/issues/130). To solve this problem:

1. Place `<ReactTooltip />` outside of the `<Modal>`
2. Use `ReactTooltip.rebuild()` when opening the modal
3. If your modal's z-index happens to be higher than the tooltip's, use the attribute `className` to custom your tooltip's z-index

> I suggest always putting `<ReactTooltip />` in the Highest level or smart component of Redux, so you might need these static
> method to control tooltip's behaviour in some situations

### 2. Hide tooltip when getContent returns undefined

When you set `getContent={() => { return }}` you will find the tooltip will display `true`. That's because React will set the value of data-\* to be 'true' automatically if there is no value to be set. So you have to set `data-tip=''` in this situation.

```jsx
<p data-tip='' data-for='test'></p>
<ReactTooltip id='test' getContent={() => { return null }}/>
```

Same for empty children, if you don't want show the tooltip when the children is empty

```jsx
<p data-tip='' data-for='test'></p>
<ReactTooltip id='test'>{}</ReactTooltip>
```

### 3. Tooltip not binding to dynamic content

When you render `<ReactTooltip>` ahead of dynamic content, and are using `data-for={id}` attributes 
on new dynamic content, the tooltip will not register its event listener.  

For example, you render a generic tooltip in the root of your app, then load a list of content async.
Elements in the list use the `data-for={id}` attribute to bind the tooltip on hover.
Since the tooltip has already scanned for data-tip these new elements will not trigger.

One workaround for this is to trigger `ReactTooltip.rebuild()` after the data load to scan for the attribute again, 
to allow event wireup.

#### Example

```jsx
<app>
  <ReactTooltip id="foo" />
  <list/>
</app>
```

```jsx

const dynamicList = (props) => {

 useEffect(() => {
        ReactTooltip.rebuild();
    });

return(
  <list>
    {data.map((item)=> {
      <span data-for="foo">My late bound tooltip triggered data</span>
    });}
  </list>
);
};

```
