Usage

In order to use the tooltip directive, you just have to import in your component:

app.component.ts:

import { NgxTooltipDirective } from "@anedomansky/ngx-tooltip";
import { Component } from "@angular/core";

@Component({
  selector: "app-root",
  templateUrl: "./app.component.html",
  styleUrls: ["./app.component.scss"],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [NgxTooltipDirective],
})
export class AppComponent {
  tooltip = "My tooltip content";
}

app.component.html:

<button type="button" (click)="doSomething()" [ngxTooltip]="tooltip" placement="top" [tooltipId]="tooltipId" [styleClass]="styleClass">Hover me!</button>

Customization

You can alter the tooltip's styles. To do so, please add your styles to a global stylesheet:

styles.scss:

.cdk-overlay-pane .ngx-tooltip {
  background-color: #fff;
  border: 2px dotted #000;
}
