## Documentation and demo

[http://romainberger.github.io/react-portal-tooltip/](http://romainberger.github.io/react-portal-tooltip/)

## Usage

```javascript
import React from 'react'
import ToolTip from 'react-portal-tooltip'

class MyComponent extends React.Component {
state = {
isTooltipActive: false
}
showTooltip() {
this.setState({isTooltipActive: true})
}
hideTooltip() {
this.setState({isTooltipActive: false})
}
render() {
return (


This is a cool component




This is the content of the tooltip






)
}
}
```

### Props

* `active`: boolean, the tooltip will be visible if true
* `position`: top, right, bottom or left. Default to right
* `arrow`: center, right, left, top or bottom (depending on the position prop). No arrow when the prop is not sepecified
* `align`: the alignment of the whole tooltip relative to the `parent` element. possible values : center, right, left. Default to center.
* `tooltipTimeout`: timeout for the tooltip fade out in milliseconds. Default to 500
* `parent`: the tooltip will be placed next to this element. Can be the id of the parent or the ref (see example below)
* `group`: string, necessary if you want several independent tooltips
* `style`: object, allows customizing the tooltip. Checkout the [example](https://github.com/romainberger/react-portal-tooltip/blob/master/example/src/style.js) for details.
* `useHover` bool, default to true. If true, the tooltip will stay visible when hovered.

### Parent prop

You can use an id or a ref to reference the parent:

#### id

```javascript


Hover me!!!


This is the content of the tooltip


```

#### ref

```javascript

{ this.element = element }} onMouseEnter={this.showTooltip} onMouseLeave={this.hideTooltip}>
Hover me!!!


This is the content of the tooltip


```

### Stateful ToolTip

If you only use the Tooltip for mouse enter / mouse leave, you may not want to handle the state yourself for all elements. In this case, you can use the stateful version which will do it for you:

Import the stateful version:

```js
import { StatefulToolTip } from "react-portal-tooltip"
```

Then create your parent and give it as a prop to the Tooltip:

```js
const button = Hover me to display the tooltip

return (

Stateful Tooltip content here!

)
```

`StatefulToolTip` takes the same props as `ToolTip`, plus a `className` prop that will be applied to the root element wrapping the parent ([see the example](https://github.com/romainberger/react-portal-tooltip/blob/master/example/src/stateful.js)).

[See the example live](http://romainberger.github.io/react-portal-tooltip/#/stateful).
