Tooltip on click of a button

Question

I'm using clipboard.js to copy some text from a textarea, and that's working fine, but I want to show a tooltip saying "Copied!" if it was successfully copied like they do in the example given on their website.

Here's an example of it working without showing a tooltip: https://jsfiddle.net/5j50jnhj/

Answer 1

I am using Menucool JavaScript Tooltip. It leaves to the triggering element to decide how to launch the tooltip:

<span onclick="tooltip.pop(this, 'Hello world!')">
    Click me
</span>

Answer 2

Here's a js fiddle that implements this the way the website does it, I stole the source code: https://jsfiddle.net/bmbs7yco/

the main components to the solution are:

function showTooltip(elem, msg) {
    elem.setAttribute('class', 'btn tooltipped tooltipped-s');
    elem.setAttribute('aria-label', msg);
}

clipboard.on('success', function(e) {
  console.info('Action:', e.action);
  console.info('Text:', e.text);
  console.info('Trigger:', e.trigger);
    showTooltip(e.trigger, 'Copied!');
  e.clearSelection();
});

and adding their primer.css. A less lazy method would be to extract the classes from the css you need.

This solution work, if you have some buttons and etc:

function setTooltip(e,message) {
  $(e.trigger).tooltip({
  trigger: 'click',
  placement: 'bottom'
});
$(e.trigger).tooltip('hide')
 .attr('data-original-title', message)
 .tooltip('show');
}

function hideTooltip(e) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    $(e.trigger).tooltip('hide');
  }, 1000);
}

// Clipboard

var clipboard = new Clipboard('button');

clipboard.on('success', function(e) {
  setTooltip(e,'Copied!');
  hideTooltip(e);
});

clipboard.on('error', function(e) {
  setTooltip(e,'Failed!');
  hideTooltip(e);
});

Answer 4

I do it like it

HTML :

<button class="test" data-clipboard-text="1">Button 1</button>
<button class="test" data-clipboard-text="1">Button 2</button>

JS :

$('.test').tooltip({
  trigger: 'click',
  placement: 'bottom'
});

function setTooltip(btn, message) {
  btn.tooltip('hide')
    .attr('data-original-title', message)
    .tooltip('show');
}

function hideTooltip(btn) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    btn.tooltip('hide');
  }, 1000);
}

var clipboard = new Clipboard('.test');

clipboard.on('success', function(e) {
    var btn = $(e.trigger);
  setTooltip(btn, 'Copied');
  hideTooltip(btn);
});

Answer 5

Clipboard.js creator here. So Clipboard.js is not opinionated about user feedback which means it doesn't come with a tooltip solution.

But here's an example of how you can integrate it with Bootstrap's Tooltip.

// Tooltip

$('button').tooltip({
  trigger: 'click',
  placement: 'bottom'
});

function setTooltip(message) {
  $('button').tooltip('hide')
    .attr('data-original-title', message)
    .tooltip('show');
}

function hideTooltip() {
  setTimeout(function() {
    $('button').tooltip('hide');
  }, 1000);
}

// Clipboard

var clipboard = new Clipboard('button');

clipboard.on('success', function(e) {
  setTooltip('Copied!');
  hideTooltip();
});

clipboard.on('error', function(e) {
  setTooltip('Failed!');
  hideTooltip();
});

*[tooltip]:focus:after {
  content: attr(tooltip);
  display:block;
  position: absolute;    
}

<button tooltip="I'm tooltip">Button</button>
<br><br>
<a href = "javascript:void(0)" tooltip = "I'm tooltip">Link</a>
