Tippy.js

Methods

#Instance methods

Methods on instances allow you to control the tippy programmatically. See the Tippy Instance page for details on accessing an instance.

#show

Programmatically show the tippy at any time:

instance.show(); // Default
instance.show(0); // 0ms transition duration

#hide

Programmatically hide the tippy at any time:

instance.hide(); // Default
instance.hide(500); // 500ms transition duration

#disable

Temporarily prevent a tippy from showing or hiding:

instance.disable();

#enable

Re-enable a tippy:

instance.enable();

#setProps

You can update any prop after the instance has been created. Pass an object of new props in:

instance.setProps({
  arrow: true,
  animation: 'scale'
});

#setContent

Updating the content prop has its own method as a shortcut:

instance.setContent('New content');

#destroy

To permanently destroy and clean up the instance, use this method:

instance.destroy();

The _tippy property is deleted from the reference element upon destruction.

#Static methods

Static methods belong to the tippy module for global behavior.

#setDefaultProps

Set the default props for each new instance:

tippy.setDefaultProps({
  // Props
});

// Access the current default props
tippy.defaultProps;

#hideAll

Hide all visible tippies on the document:

import {hideAll} from 'tippy.js';

// Use each tippy's own duration
hideAll();
// Hide them all instantly
hideAll({duration: 0});
// Hide them all except a particular one
hideAll({exclude: tippyInstance});
hideAll({exclude: referenceElement});

In the CDN (iife) version, it's available as tippy.hideAll().
