Implementing a Vue 3 Ellipsis Tooltip Custom Directive

Tech Apr 19 14
import { h, render } from 'vue';
import { ElTooltip } from 'element-plus';

const processOverflow = (el, binding) => {
  el.style.overflow = 'hidden';
  el.style.textOverflow = 'ellipsis';
  el.style.whiteSpace = 'nowrap';

  // Determine if the textual content exceeds the container's width
  if (el.scrollWidth <= el.clientWidth) return;

  const textContent = el.innerText;
  const tooltipMessage = binding.value || textContent;

  // Clear existing child nodes
  el.innerHTML = '';

  // Construct the tooltip virtual node using a render function
  const tooltipVNode = h(
    ElTooltip,
    { content: tooltipMessage },
    () => h('span', textContent)
  );

  render(tooltipVNode, el);

  // Apply truncation styles to the newly appended element
  const wrapper = el.firstElementChild;
  if (wrapper) {
    wrapper.style.display = 'block';
    wrapper.style.width = '100%';
    wrapper.style.overflow = 'hidden';
    wrapper.style.textOverflow = 'ellipsis';
    wrapper.style.whiteSpace = 'nowrap';
  }
};
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import App from './App.vue';

const application = createApp(App);

application.directive('ellipsis-tip', {
  mounted(el, binding) {
    processOverflow(el, binding);
  },
  updated(el, binding) {
    processOverflow(el, binding);
  }
});

application.mount('#app');
<template>
  <div style="width: 80px;" v-ellipsis-tip>Extremely long text content that exceeds the container dimensions</div>
  <div style="width: 80px;" v-ellipsis-tip="'Hover to reveal this custom message'">Extremely long text content that exceeds the container dimensions</div>
