rc-trigger

What is rc-trigger?

The rc-trigger npm package is a React component that is used for positioning and aligning popups, tooltips, dropdowns, and other floating elements relative to a target element. It provides a flexible way to control the visibility and behavior of these overlay components.

What are rc-trigger's main functionalities?

Popup Alignment

This feature allows you to align the popup content to the target element. In the code sample, the popup is aligned to the bottom left of the button when clicked, with a small offset.

{"import React from 'react';\nimport Trigger from 'rc-trigger';\nimport 'rc-trigger/assets/index.css';\n\nconst popupContent = <div>Popup Content</div>;\n\nconst Demo = () => (\n  <Trigger\n    action={['click']}\n    popup={popupContent}\n    popupAlign={{\n      points: ['tl', 'bl'],\n      offset: [0, 3],\n    }}\n  >\n    <button>Click me</button>\n  </Trigger>\n);\n\nexport default Demo;"}

Trigger Actions

This feature allows you to specify the actions that will trigger the popup. In the code sample, the popup appears when the input field is either hovered over or focused.

{"import React from 'react';\nimport Trigger from 'rc-trigger';\nimport 'rc-trigger/assets/index.css';\n\nconst popupContent = <div>Popup Content</div>;\n\nconst Demo = () => (\n  <Trigger\n    action={['hover', 'focus']}\n    popup={popupContent}\n    popupAlign={{\n      points: ['tl', 'bl'],\n      offset: [0, 3],\n    }}\n  >\n    <input placeholder='Hover or focus me'/>\n  </Trigger>\n);\n\nexport default Demo;"}

Built-in Animations

This feature allows you to add animations to the popup when it appears or disappears. In the code sample, the 'slide-up' animation is used when the popup is shown or hidden.

{"import React from 'react';\nimport Trigger from 'rc-trigger';\nimport 'rc-trigger/assets/index.css';\n\nconst popupContent = <div>Popup Content</div>;\n\nconst Demo = () => (\n  <Trigger\n    action={['click']}\n    popup={popupContent}\n    popupAlign={{\n      points: ['tl', 'bl'],\n      offset: [0, 3],\n    }}\n    popupAnimation='slide-up'\n  >\n    <button>Click me</button>\n  </Trigger>\n);\n\nexport default Demo;"}

Other packages similar to rc-trigger

react-tether

react-tether is a React wrapper around the Tether positioning engine. It provides similar functionality to rc-trigger for positioning and aligning elements. However, react-tether is more focused on the Tether library's API and may offer more advanced positioning options.

react-popper

react-popper is a React wrapper for the Popper.js library. It is used for the same purposes as rc-trigger, such as tooltips and popovers. react-popper leverages Popper.js for positioning, which might give it an edge in terms of positioning accuracy and performance.

react-portal-tooltip

react-portal-tooltip is a React component for creating tooltips that are appended to the body of the page. It is similar to rc-trigger in that it helps with creating floating UI elements, but it is specifically tailored for tooltips and may not offer as much flexibility for other types of overlays.
