ember {{pop-over}}

NOTE: This is still pre-1.0 software and is subject to change.

This pop-over provides a pluggable interface for dealing with pop overs around your site. It has an inteface for registering constraint behaviors and animations.

For use of the pop-over as a tooltip, the following handlebars will do the trick:

<span id="help-me" class="icon-help"></span>
{{#pop-over for="help-me" on="hover"}}
  Hey there!
{{/pop-over}}

Installation

ember install ember-pop-over

Flows

Flows provide a mechanism to programatically define how pop overs interact with the page.

The API for flows is designed to provide a clear interface for understanding how a pop over will react when the page is scrolled or resized.

For example, a pop over that always opens to the right of the target would look like:

export function popup() {
  return this.orientRight.andSnapTo(this.center);
}

If you would like the pop over to slide between the top and bottom edge, you can use the andSlideBetween method:

export function right() {
  return this.orientRight.andSlideBetween(this.topEdge, this.bottomEdge);
}

If no flow satisfies the constraints of the page, then the last flow in the cascade will be picked.

Orientation	Description
orientAbove	Orients the pop over above the target
orientLeft	Orients the pop over to the left of the target
orientBelow	Orients the pop over below the target
orientRight	Orients the pop over to the right of the target

Behavior	Description
andSnapTo	Attempts to snap to the locations given (in order)
andSlideBetween	Positions the menu in between the locations given (the gravity of the menu is dictated by the positions of the parameters. For example, if the function is called `andSlideBetween(this.top, this.bottom)`, gravity will be reversed.
where	A generic constraint that can pass / fail a constraint depending on the results of the function. This is hot code, and should be very straightforward.

The list of possible locations for a flow depend on whether the flow is vertical or horizontal.

For vertical flows (orientLeft, orientRight), the possible names are:

topEdge
center
bottomEdge

For horizontal flows (orientTop, orientBottom), the possible names are:

leftEdge
center
rightEdge

Writing your own components using {{pop-over}}

The {{pop-over}} component is designed to be used with other components. It provides a programatic API for adding customized targets, and a set of utilities that allow for an easier and more consistent development experience when authoring these addons.

Let's go through the steps of authoring a component that uses a {{pop-over}} by making a {{date-picker}} widget. Some of the implementation details will be ignored to make this tutorial clearer to follow.

First, let's bootstrap the addon:

$ ember addon my-date-picker

After this we'll add ember-pop-over and ember-moment as a dependencies (not a development dependency):

$ cd my-date-picker
$ ember install ember-pop-over
$ ember install ember-moment

Now, we're ready to start authoring the addon. Let's first start by creating the component javascript file.

$ mkdir addon/components
$ touch addon/components/date-picker.js

Using the editor of your choice, add the following bootstrap code to get started:

import Ember from "ember";

var DatePicker = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['date-picker']
});

export default DatePicker;

Let's define our public API first. This is what you will use to interface with the component in handlebars:

import Ember from "ember";

var DatePicker = Ember.Component.extend({
  value: null,
  icon: null
});

export default DatePicker;

value is the date that is picked and icon is an icon used to display a calendar icon.

We're going to make the date picker a combination of a text field and a configurable icon, so let's start hooking them up so the pop-over knows what will trigger events:

import Ember from "ember";
import nearestChild from "ember-pop-over/computed/nearest-child";

const get = Ember.get;

var DatePicker = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['date-picker'],

  value: null,
  icon: null,
  
  popover: nearestChild('pop-over'),
  
  attachTargets: function () {
    var popover = get(this, 'popover');
    var icon = get(this, 'icon');

    popover.addTarget(icon, {
      on: "click"
    });
  }.on('didInsertElement')
});

export default DatePicker;

Let's walk through the code.

First, we imported nearestChild. This is a computed property that returns the nearest child of a given type. We then use this property to get the pop-over.

Then we add the icon as a target for the pop over that will toggle the menu when clicked.

For the next step, let's start showing the pop over live and doing some iterative development. To do this, we'll need to start fiddling with the app directory.

Create the components and templates/components directories under app at the root of your addon's project.

The first thing to do is expose the component as a public interface by making a file called date-picker.js under components:

import DatePicker from "my-date-picker/components/date-picker";
export default DatePicker;

This simply exposes the date picker as a component consumable by the host application.

Next, let's add a handlebars template for the date picker, under templates/components/date-picker.hbs:

{{input type=text value=displayValue}}<span class="icon-calendar" {{bind-attr id=icon}}>Open</span>
{{#pop-over flow="dropdown" will-change="month" month=month}}
  <header>
    <a class="previous-month" {{action "previousMonth"}}>&lt;</a>
    <div class="month">{{moment firstOfMonth "MMMM"}}</div>
    <a class="next-month" {{action "nextMonth"}}>&gt;</a>
  </header>
  {{calendar-month month=firstOfMonth}}
{{/pop-over}}

With the template we created, we've solidified a few requirements for the component. Let's go back to date-picker.js in the addon directory and suss these out.

First, let's automatically generate an ID for the icon. This way, the pop-over has a unique identifier for triggering on. While we're at it, let's implement the details around month.

import Ember from "ember";
import nearestChild from "ember-pop-over/computed/nearest-child";

const generateGuid = Ember.generateGuid;
const get = Ember.get;

var DatePicker = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['date-picker'],
  
  value: null,
  icon: function () {
    return generateGuid();
  }.property(),
  
  popover: nearestChild('pop-over'),
  
  attachTargets: function () {
    var popover = get(this, 'popover');
    var icon = get(this, 'icon');

    popover.addTarget(icon, {
      on: "click"  
    });
  }.on('didInsertElement'),
  
  actions: {
    previousMonth: function () {
      var previousMonth = get(this, 'firstOfMonth').clone().subtract(1, 'month');
      set(this, 'month', previousMonth.month());
      set(this, 'year', previousMonth.year());
    },
    
    nextMonth: function () {
      var nextMonth = get(this, 'firstOfMonth').clone().add(1, 'month');
      set(this, 'month', nextMonth.month());
      set(this, 'year', nextMonth.year());
    }
  },
  
  month: null,
  year: null,
  
  firstOfMonth: function () {
    return moment({ year: get(this, 'year'), month: get(this, 'month') });
  }.property('year', 'month')

});

export default DatePicker;

As a default, let's make month be the current month or the month of the selected value:

import Ember from "ember";
import moment from 'moment';
import nearestChild from "ember-pop-over/computed/nearest-child";

const generateGuid = Ember.generateGuid;
const get = Ember.get;

const reads = Ember.computed.reads;

var DatePicker = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['date-picker'],
  
  value: null,
  icon: function () {
    return generateGuid();
  }.property(),
  
  popover: nearestChild('pop-over'),
  
  attachTargets: function () {
    var popover = get(this, 'popover');
    var icon = get(this, 'icon');

    popover.addTarget(icon, {
      on: "click"
    });
  }.on('didInsertElement'),
  
  actions: {
    previousMonth: function () {
      var previousMonth = get(this, 'firstOfMonth').clone().subtract(1, 'month');
      set(this, 'month', previousMonth.month());
      set(this, 'year', previousMonth.year());
    },
    
    nextMonth: function () {
      var nextMonth = get(this, 'firstOfMonth').clone().add(1, 'month');
      set(this, 'month', nextMonth.month());
      set(this, 'year', nextMonth.year());
    }
  },
  
  month: reads('currentMonth'),
  year: reads('currentYear'),
  
  firstOfMonth: function () {
    return moment({ year: get(this, 'year'), month: get(this, 'month') });
  }.property('year', 'month'),
  
  currentMonth: function () {
    return get(this, 'value') ?
           get(this, 'value').getMonth() :
           new Date().getMonth();
  }.property(),
  
  currentYear: function () {
    return get(this, 'value') ?
           get(this, 'value').getFullYear() :
           new Date().getFullYear();
  }.property(),
  
  displayValue: function () {
    var value = get(this, 'value');
    return value ? moment(value).format("MM/DD/YYYY") : null;
  }.property('value')
});

export default DatePicker;

With this much, we should be able to rotate through a list of months in the calendar year. Let's test this by commenting out the {{calendar-month}} component:

{{input type=text value=displayValue}}<span class="icon-calendar" {{bind-attr id=icon}}>Open</span>
{{#pop-over flow="dropdown" will-change="month" month=month}}
  <header>
    <a class="previous-month" {{action "previousMonth"}}>&lt;</a>
    <div class="month">{{moment firstOfMonth "MMMM"}}</div>
    <a class="next-month" {{action "nextMonth"}}>&gt;</a>
  </header>
  {{!calendar-month month=firstOfMonth}}
{{/pop-over}}

Now on to the next step! Let's implement the calendar-month component. In calendar-month.js in your addon, let's add code to come up with the days of the week and weeks in the given month.

import Ember from "ember";
import moment from "moment";

const get = Ember.get;

var CalendarMonth = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['calendar-month'],
  tagName: "table",
  
  dayNames: function () {
    var firstWeek = get(this, 'weeks.firstObject');
    return firstWeek.map(function (day) {
      return moment(day).format("ddd");
    });
  }.property('weeks'),
  
  weeks: function () {
    var month = get(this, 'month');
    var day = month.clone().startOf('week');
    var weeks = [];
    var week = [];
    for (var iDay = 0; iDay < 7; iDay++) {
      week.push(day.clone().toDate());
      day.add(1, 'day');
    }
    weeks.push(week);

    while (day.month() === month.month()) {
      week = [];
      for (iDay = 0; iDay < 7; iDay++) {
        week.push(day.clone().toDate());
        day.add(1, 'day');
      }
      weeks.push(week);
    }
    return weeks;
  }.property('month')
});

export default CalendarMonth;

And now let's add the template for that. First, expose the component in the app:

import CalendarMonth from "my-date-picker/components/calendar-month";
export default CalendarMonth;

And then add the template for it:

<thead>
  <tr>
    {{#each dayOfWeek in dayNames}}
      <th>{{dayOfWeek}}</th>
    {{/each}}
  </tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
  {{#each week in weeks}}
    <tr>
      {{#each day in week}}
        {{calendar-day value=day month=month}}
      {{/each}}
    </tr>
  {{/each}}
</tbody>

Hmm. Looks like we have yet another component to write! Let's finish off with that one, and then pop the stack all the way back to finish off the component.

import Ember from "ember";
import moment from "moment";
import nearestParent from "ember-pop-over/computed/nearest-parent";

const get = Ember.get;

const reads = Ember.computed.reads;

var CalendarDay = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['calendar-day'],

  tagName: "td",
  classNameBindings: ['isSelected:selected', 'isToday', 'isDisabled:disabled'],
  
  datePicker: nearestParent('date-picker'),
  selection: reads('datePicker.value'),
  
  isToday: function () {
    return moment(get(this, 'value')).isSame(new Date(), 'day');
  }.property('value'),
  
  isSelected: function () {
    return moment(get(this, 'value')).isSame(get(this, 'selection'), 'day');
  }.property('value', 'selection'),
  
  isDisabled: function () {
    return !moment(get(this, 'value')).isSame(get(this, 'month'), 'month');
  }.property('value', 'month'),
  
  click: function () {
    if (get(this, 'isDisabled')) { return; }
    get(this, 'datePicker').send('selectDate', get(this, 'value'));
  }
});

export default CalendarDay;

<span>{{moment value "D"}}</span>

Now let's pop our stack and finish by writing a handler for selectDate in date-picker.js:

import Ember from "ember";
import moment from 'moment';
import nearestChild from "ember-pop-over/computed/nearest-child";

const generateGuid = Ember.generateGuid;

const get = Ember.get;
const set = Ember.set;

const reads = Ember.computed.reads;

var DatePicker = Ember.Component.extend({
  classNames: ['date-picker'],
  value: null,
  icon: function () {
    return generateGuid();
  }.property(),
  
  popover: nearestChild('pop-over'),
  
  attachTargets: function () {
    var popover = get(this, 'popover');
    var icon = get(this, 'icon');

    popover.addTarget(icon, {
      on: "click"
    });
  }.on('didInsertElement'),
  
  actions: {
    previousMonth: function () {
      var previousMonth = get(this, 'firstOfMonth').clone().subtract(1, 'month');
      set(this, 'month', previousMonth.month());
      set(this, 'year', previousMonth.year());
    },
    
    nextMonth: function () {
      var nextMonth = get(this, 'firstOfMonth').clone().add(1, 'month');
      set(this, 'month', nextMonth.month());
      set(this, 'year', nextMonth.year());
    },
    
    selectDate: function (date) {
      set(this, 'value', date);
      get(this, 'popover').deactivate();
    }
  },
  
  month: reads('currentMonth'),
  year: reads('currentYear'),
  
  firstOfMonth: function () {
    return moment({ year: get(this, 'year'), month: get(this, 'month') });
  }.property('year', 'month'),

  currentMonth: function () {
    return get(this, 'value') ?
           get(this, 'value').getMonth() :
           new Date().getMonth();
  }.property(),
  
  currentYear: function () {
    return get(this, 'value') ?
           get(this, 'value').getFullYear() :
           new Date().getFullYear();
  }.property(),
  
  displayValue: function () {
    var value = get(this, 'value');
    return value ? moment(value).format("MM/DD/YYYY") : null;
  }.property('value')
});

export default DatePicker;

When we deactivate the pop over, we're telling it that all targets are not active anymore. That way, the pop over hides.

To polish it off, let's add styling. Create a file in addons called styles/my-date-picker.css and add the following CSS:

.date-picker .pop-over {
  padding: 20px;
}

.date-picker header {
  height: 25px;
  position: relative;
}
.date-picker .next-month,
.date-picker .previous-month {
  cursor: pointer;
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
}

.date-picker .next-month {
  right: 0;
}

.date-picker .previous-month {
  left: 0;
}

.date-picker .month {
  text-align: center;
}

.calendar-month {
  border-collapse: collapse;
  border-spacing: 0;
}

.calendar-month th {
  font-family: sans-serif;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  font-size: 12px;
  height: 30px;
  border-bottom: 1px solid #999;
  border-top: 3px solid #FFF;
  margin-bottom: 5px;
}

.calendar-day {
  cursor: pointer;
  text-align: center;
  width: 20px;
  height: 20px;
  padding: 1px;
}

.calendar-day span {
  display: block;
  padding: 5px;
}

.calendar-day.disabled {
  color: #999;
  cursor: default;
}

.calendar-day.is-today span {
  border: 1px solid #666;
}

.calendar-day.selected span {
  border: 1px solid #FFF;
}

If everything went well, you should have a date-picker that behaves like the one here: http://tim-evans.github.io/ember-pop-over/
