Custom Tooltip

:::tip

There are some known timing problems when setting Plugins Object, solution is to set the Plugins Object on Did Mount.

:::

Custom Tooltip Content

This sample shows how to use the tooltip callbacks to add additional content to the tooltip. Chart.js Example

Outputs.Plugins = {
  tooltip: {
    callbacks: {
      footer: (tooltipItems) => {
        let sum = 0;

        tooltipItems.forEach(function (tooltipItem) {
          sum += tooltipItem.parsed.y;
        });
        return "Sum: " + sum;
      },
    },
  },
};

External HTML Tooltip

This sample shows how to use the external tooltip functionality to generate an HTML tooltip. Chart.js Example

const getOrCreateTooltip = (chart) => {
  let tooltipEl = chart.canvas.parentNode.querySelector("div");

  if (!tooltipEl) {
    tooltipEl = document.createElement("div");
    tooltipEl.style.background = "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7)";
    tooltipEl.style.borderRadius = "3px";
    tooltipEl.style.color = "white";
    tooltipEl.style.opacity = 1;
    tooltipEl.style.pointerEvents = "none";
    tooltipEl.style.position = "absolute";
    tooltipEl.style.transform = "translate(-50%, 0)";
    tooltipEl.style.transition = "all .1s ease";

    const table = document.createElement("table");
    table.style.margin = "0px";

    tooltipEl.appendChild(table);
    chart.canvas.parentNode.appendChild(tooltipEl);
  }

  return tooltipEl;
};

const externalTooltipHandler = (context) => {
  // Tooltip Element
  const { chart, tooltip } = context;
  const tooltipEl = getOrCreateTooltip(chart);

  // Hide if no tooltip
  if (tooltip.opacity === 0) {
    tooltipEl.style.opacity = 0;
    return;
  }

  // Set Text
  if (tooltip.body) {
    const titleLines = tooltip.title || [];
    const bodyLines = tooltip.body.map((b) => b.lines);

    const tableHead = document.createElement("thead");

    titleLines.forEach((title) => {
      const tr = document.createElement("tr");
      tr.style.borderWidth = 0;

      const th = document.createElement("th");
      th.style.borderWidth = 0;
      const text = document.createTextNode(title);

      th.appendChild(text);
      tr.appendChild(th);
      tableHead.appendChild(tr);
    });

    const tableBody = document.createElement("tbody");
    bodyLines.forEach((body, i) => {
      const colors = tooltip.labelColors[i];

      const span = document.createElement("span");
      span.style.background = colors.backgroundColor;
      span.style.borderColor = colors.borderColor;
      span.style.borderWidth = "2px";
      span.style.marginRight = "10px";
      span.style.height = "10px";
      span.style.width = "10px";
      span.style.display = "inline-block";

      const tr = document.createElement("tr");
      tr.style.backgroundColor = "inherit";
      tr.style.borderWidth = 0;

      const td = document.createElement("td");
      td.style.borderWidth = 0;

      const text = document.createTextNode(body);

      td.appendChild(span);
      td.appendChild(text);
      tr.appendChild(td);
      tableBody.appendChild(tr);
    });

    const tableRoot = tooltipEl.querySelector("table");

    // Remove old children
    while (tableRoot.firstChild) {
      tableRoot.firstChild.remove();
    }

    // Add new children
    tableRoot.appendChild(tableHead);
    tableRoot.appendChild(tableBody);
  }

  const { offsetLeft: positionX, offsetTop: positionY } = chart.canvas;

  // Display, position, and set styles for font
  tooltipEl.style.opacity = 1;
  tooltipEl.style.left = positionX + tooltip.caretX + "px";
  tooltipEl.style.top = positionY + tooltip.caretY + "px";
  tooltipEl.style.font = tooltip.options.bodyFont.string;
  tooltipEl.style.padding =
    tooltip.options.padding + "px " + tooltip.options.padding + "px";
};

Outputs.Plugins = {
  tooltip: {
    enabled: false,
    position: "nearest",
    external: externalTooltipHandler,
  },
};

Only show titles

For this we just change the code to only return the titles.

const getOrCreateTooltip = (chart) => {
  let tooltipEl = chart.canvas.parentNode.querySelector("div");

  if (!tooltipEl) {
    tooltipEl = document.createElement("div");
    tooltipEl.style.background = "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7)";
    tooltipEl.style.borderRadius = "3px";
    tooltipEl.style.color = "white";
    tooltipEl.style.opacity = 1;
    tooltipEl.style.pointerEvents = "none";
    tooltipEl.style.position = "absolute";
    tooltipEl.style.transform = "translate(-50%, 0)";
    tooltipEl.style.transition = "all .1s ease";

    const table = document.createElement("table");
    table.style.margin = "0px";

    tooltipEl.appendChild(table);
    chart.canvas.parentNode.appendChild(tooltipEl);
  }

  return tooltipEl;
};

const externalTooltipHandler = (context) => {
  // Tooltip Element
  const { chart, tooltip } = context;
  const tooltipEl = getOrCreateTooltip(chart);

  // Hide if no tooltip
  if (tooltip.opacity === 0) {
    tooltipEl.style.opacity = 0;
    return;
  }

  // Set Text
  if (tooltip.body) {
    const titleLines = tooltip.title || [];
    const bodyLines = tooltip.body.map((b) => b.lines);

    const tableHead = document.createElement("thead");

    titleLines.forEach((title) => {
      const tr = document.createElement("tr");
      tr.style.borderWidth = 0;

      const th = document.createElement("th");
      th.style.borderWidth = 0;
      const text = document.createTextNode(title);

      th.appendChild(text);
      tr.appendChild(th);
      tableHead.appendChild(tr);
    });

    const tableRoot = tooltipEl.querySelector("table");

    // Remove old children
    while (tableRoot.firstChild) {
      tableRoot.firstChild.remove();
    }

    // Add new children
    tableRoot.appendChild(tableHead);
  }

  const { offsetLeft: positionX, offsetTop: positionY } = chart.canvas;

  // Display, position, and set styles for font
  tooltipEl.style.opacity = 1;
  tooltipEl.style.left = positionX + tooltip.caretX + "px";
  tooltipEl.style.top = positionY + tooltip.caretY + "px";
  tooltipEl.style.font = tooltip.options.bodyFont.string;
  tooltipEl.style.padding =
    tooltip.options.padding + "px " + tooltip.options.padding + "px";
};

Outputs.Plugins = {
  tooltip: {
    enabled: false,
    position: "nearest",
    external: externalTooltipHandler,
  },
};
