</script>

Custom Trigger Event

See '/demo/basic-usage.html' in repo for complete example

By default the trigger event for modals is a click event. However, you can use other events by updating the data-flyout-trigger attribute.

HTML

<button data-flyout-trigger="mouseover" data-flyout-target="exampleFlyout">
    <strong>></strong> Open Flyout
</button> 

<div class="flyout-containers">
    <div class="flyout-container" data-flyout-container="collapsed" data-flyout-target="exampleFlyout">
        <h1>Flyout</h1>
        <button type="button" data-close-flyout="exampleFlyout">
            <strong>&times;</strong> Close
        </button>
    </div>
</div>

Custom Callback

See '/demo/basic-usage.html' in repo for complete example

The default event for triggering expandable expansion can be overwritten by adding data-flyout-override and data-flyout-callback attributes to the expandable trigger. If you a developer does this, they become responsible for toggling the expandable expansion exchange for being able to add custom behavior around the interaction.

HTML

<div class="flyout-container" data-flyout-container="collapsed" data-flyout-target="exampleFlyout"  data-flyout-override=true data-flyout-callback="exampleCallback">
    <h1>Flyout</h1>
    <button type="button" data-close-flyout="exampleFlyout">
        <strong>&times;</strong> Close
    </button> 
</div>

JavaScript

<script type="module">
    // ES6 Module Import
    import { Flyouts, initFlyouts } from './flyout-overlay-js/flyouts.js'; 

    // Initialize Plugin
    initFlyouts();

    // Custom callback where the developer has to trigger the flyout's visibility 
    window.exampleCallback = ( event ) => {
        let targetName = event.target.getAttribute( 'data-flyout-target' ); 
        Flyouts.getFlyout( targetName ).toggle(); 
        alert( 'Custom callback triggered on ' + targetName + '; expanded = ' + Flyouts.getFlyout( targetName ).getSettings().expanded );
    } 
</script>
