Alpine custom tooltip directive darkmode with tippy.js
Question
I'm trying to implement the tippy.js tooltip and change the theme based on the local storage value darkMode as an AlpineJs custom directive .
The code below works more or less fine with the latest bit that if I toggle the dark-mode switch, which changes the local localStorage item value of darkMode , I need a page refresh to get the new value.
How can I get the value ( JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('darkMode')) ) while I change it?
app.js
document.addEventListener('alpine:init', () => {
Alpine.directive('tooltip', (el, {expression, modifiers}) => {
tippy(el, {
content: expression,
placement: modifiers[0] ?? 'auto',
theme: JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('darkMode')) ?'blue':'light-border'
})
})
})
tool-tip button
<button type="button" x-tooltip.left="I'm a tooltip">Hover me</button>
darkmode
<body class="font-sans antialiased h-full"
x-data="{'darkMode': false}"
x-init="
darkMode = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('darkMode'));
$watch('darkMode', value => localStorage.setItem('darkMode', JSON.stringify(value)))"
x-cloak
>
<!-- some html -->
</body>
toggle button
<input id="toggle" type="checkbox" :value="darkMode" @change="darkMode = !darkMode"/>

As you see a Tippy.js instance and the localStorage is not reactive. After creating a Tippy.js instance we need to use the _tippy property on each element if we want to change a property. To make it a little bit easier, I modified the tooltip directive to add a custom class tooltips , that we use to loop over each Tippy.js instance.
document.addEventListener('alpine:init', () => {
Alpine.directive('tooltip', (el, { expression, modifiers }) => {
tippy(el, {
content: expression,
placement: modifiers[0] ?? 'auto',
theme: JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('darkMode')) ? 'blue' : 'light-border'
})
el.classList.add('tooltips')
})
})
And in the $watch magic, we use the tooltips class to find all of the Tippy.js instances and set the new theme on them.
<body class="font-sans antialiased h-full"
x-data="{'darkMode': false}"
x-init="
darkMode = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('darkMode'));
$watch('darkMode', value => {
localStorage.setItem('darkMode', JSON.stringify(value))
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.tooltips')).forEach(
el => el._tippy.setProps({ theme: value ? 'blue' : 'light-border' }))
})"
x-cloak
