Description

A Cytoscape.js extension that wraps the qTip jQuery library

Dependencies

* jQuery ^1.10.0 || ^2.0, as qTip requires it
* qTip ^2.2.0
* Cytoscape.js ^2.2.0

Usage instructions

Download the library:
* via npm: npm install cytoscape-qtip,
* via bower: bower install cytoscape-qtip, or
* via direct download in the repository (probably from a tag).

require() the library as appropriate for your project:

CommonJS:
``js
var cytoscape = require('cytoscape');
var jquery = require('jquery');
var cyqtip = require('cytoscape-qtip');

cyqtip( cytoscape, jquery ); // register extension
`

AMD:
`js
require(['cytoscape', 'cytoscape-qtip', 'jquery'], function( cytoscape, cyqtip, jquery ){
cyqtip( cytoscape, jquery ); // register extension
});
`

Note that jquery must point to a jQuery object with .qtip() registered if any sort of require() is used.

Plain HTML/JS has the extension registered for you automatically, because no require() is needed.

API

This extension wraps the qTip API so it can be used on Cytoscape.js graph elements instead of HTML DOM elements.

You can call qTip on graph elements:
`js
eles.qtip({ / options ... / });
`

You can call qTip on the core:
`js
cy.qtip({ / options ... / });
`

See the qTip API for details on configuration.

If you want to access the qTip API for an element:
`js
var api = ele.qtip('api');
`

If you want to access the qTip API for the core:
`js
var api = cy.qtip('api');
`

See the qTip docs for details on the API. If you create more than one qTip on an element and use its API, you'll have to cache the api references after creating each qTip.

API restrictions

You may not use options.position.target. If you require a different value, like 'body' or 'mouse', you don't need this extenstion -- you can simply use the qTip APIs directly on a DOM element.

API additions

These are additional options you can use for convenience. Remember: This extension is just a wrapper to qTip. If you require more complex behaviour, you should manually use the qTip API.

* options.position.adjust.cyViewport : When true, updates element qTip position on zoom and pan. Note you'll need your own mechanism to hide out-of-bounds qTips, such as customising the parent container.

* options.show.cyBgOnly : When true, shows core qTips only for events originated on the core (not bubbled). Useful for "background" events.

* options.hide.cyBgOnly : When true, hides core qTips only for events originated on the core (not bubbled). Useful for "background" events.

* options.hide.cyViewport : When true, hides qTips when the viewport is manipulated (i.e. zoom/pan).
