popover: Create a Bootstrap 4 popover from the UI side

In hiplot/bs4Dash2: A 'Bootstrap 4' Version of 'shinydashboard'

Description

This replaces the shinyBS popover feature that is not compatible with Bootstrap 4

addPopover adds a popover to the given target.

removePopover destroys the current targeted popover.

Usage

popover(tag, content, title, placement = c("top", "bottom", "left", "right"))

addPopover(
  id = NULL,
  selector = NULL,
  options,
  session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain()
)

removePopover(id, session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain())

Arguments

tag	Popover target.
content	Popover content.
title	Popover title.
placement	Popover placement: "top", "bottom", "left" or "right".
id	Popover target id.
selector	jQuery selector. Allow more customization for the target (nested tags).
options	List of options to pass to the popover. See https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/popovers/.
session	Shiny session object.

Note

popover does not automatically handles tooltip removal and must be seperately implemented. If the dashboardHeader help parameter is TRUE, all popovers may be enabled or disabled depending on the switch value, which may solve this problem. This allows to toggle popovers whenever required.

This replaces the shinyBS popover feature that is not compatible with Bootstrap 4
