Advanced tools
NgWormhole
This component allows rendering all of its content to be rendered elsewhere on the page.
Why?
Sometimes a dialog or tooltip has to be rendered outside of an element, as CSS stacking contexts may interfere with positioning.
Installation
$ yarn add ng-wormhole
Import NgWormholeModule in your app:
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { NgWormholeModule } from 'ng-wormhole';
@NgModule({
imports: [NgWormholeModule]
})
export class AppModule {}
Example usage
index.html
<body>
<my-angular-app></my-angular-app>
<div id="wormhole-target"></div>
</body>
In a component template:
<my-popover *ngWormhole="'#wormhole-target'">...</my-popover>
The <my-popover> component will then be rendered in the #wormhole-target
element, it will also automatically cleaned up once your component will be
destroyed.
