Volto add-on @rohberg/volto-slate-glossary adds tooltips for glossary terms of collective.glossary

Install Plone add-on collective.glossary in your backend. This provides the content type glossary.

Determine where to apply tooltips in your project by match configuration:

    import { Tooltips } from '@rohberg/volto-slate-glossary/components';

    export default function applyConfig(config) {
        config.settings.appExtras = [
            ...config.settings.appExtras,
            {
            match: '/documentation',
            component: Tooltips,
            },
            {
            match: '/news',
            component: Tooltips,
            },
        ];

        return config;
    }

By default we show a tooltip when a word matches case insensitively: when the term is "Hello" or "hello", a tooltip is shown for "Hello", "hello", "HELLO", "hElLo", etcetera.

You can configure this to be case sensitive for all terms, so "Hello" only matches for "Hello":

config.settings.glossary.caseSensitive = true;

Regardless of this setting, when you have a fully uppercase term, for example REST (Representational State Transfer), always only the exact word REST gets a tooltip, not rest or Rest.

By default we show tooltips for all occurrences of a term.

Since version 2.0.0 you can configure to only show tooltips for the first occurence on a page.

config.settings.glossary.matchOnlyFirstOccurence = true;

User can opt-out by setting glossarytooltips to false. Add a boolean member field glossarytooltips for it.

Further configurations

Hide alphabet navigation of glossary view:

config.settings.glossary.showAlphabetNavigation = false;

Show glossary term in tooltips header:

config.settings.glossary.mentionTermInTooltip = true;
