react-highlight-popover

React component to show popover for text that is selected/highlighted.

A highly customizable text highlight react component with zero dependencies.

Installation

npm install react-highlight-popover

or

yarn add react-highlight-popover

Usage

1. Import HighlightableTextArea after installation

import { HighlightableTextArea } from 'react-highlight-popover';

2. Wrap the text you want to be highlightable with HighlightableTextArea

function App() {
    return (
        <HighlightableTextArea>
            <p>This is a sample text that can be highlighted. Select some text from here to see.</p>
        </HighlightableTextArea>
    )
}

Customize your popover item

You can define a custom popover item by defining the popoverItem prop, whose value is a function that returns a react node. It also takes HighlightedText & setPopoverState as optional arguments.

Example

function App() {
    return (
        <HighlightableTextArea 
            popoverItem={(HighlightedText, setPopoverState) => {
                return (
                    <div onClick={() => setPopoverState(false)}>
                        <p>{HighlightedText}</p>
                    </div>
                )}}
        >
            <p>This is a sample text that can be highlighted. Select some text from here to see.</p>
        </HighlightableTextArea>
    )
}
