V2.5.4 . REPO . DEMO . NPM . CHANGELOG

In short on:outclick 😜. A Svelte component that allows you to listen for clicks outside of an element, by providing you an outclick event.

Ignore wrapper (as CSS perspective).
Exclude other elements so they will not trigger the event.
Include self(wrapper) to the event target.
Add custom classes to the wrapper.

Installation

npm i -D svelte-outclick

yarn add svelte-outclick --dev
pnpm add -D svelte-outclick

Must be installed in 'devDependencies'.

Update

npm update svelte-outclick

yarn upgrade svelte-outclick
pnpm up svelte-outclick

How it works

It works the same as Javascript click event. A click event is attached to the entire window and checks whether the event target is contained within the element.

If the element didn't contain the event target, it means that the click happened outside of the element. Therefore we can call it outside click (outclick in short).

IMPORTANT: This component uses on:mousedown instead of on:click because of #4.

How to use

<script>
	import OutClick from 'svelte-outclick'
</script>

<OutClick on:outclick={myFunction} />

Examples

Props

exclude - default: []
includeSelf - default: false
useWrapper - default: false
class - default: ''

`exclude` - default: `[]` - Example

By default, clicking on any element outside of the wrapper will cause the event to trigger. You can specify the HTML class and id of the elements that will not trigger the event. For example, a button that triggers a popup must be excluded. Otherwise, it will immediately close the popup when it is opened. The exclude prop expects an array of DOM nodes. Clicks on those nodes (and their children) will be ignored.

<button class="my-button"></button>
<OutClick exclude={['.my-button']} />

`includeSelf` - default: `false` - Example

For example, if you want to close the dropdown when you click on its items, set the prop value to true, so the self(wrapper) can trigger the event.

`useWrapper` - default: `false` - Example

By default, the wrapper is ignored as CSS perspective. For special reasons, if you don't want to use display: contents, set the value to true.

You need to do extra work to get the desired result. Your elements (that goes inside the component tags) going to wrapped between a div element. This element has a default class called outclick-wrapper. You can also add your custom classes if you are using tools like TailwindCSS. Read "class - default: null" section for more information about styling the wrapper.

`class` - default: `''` - Example

This is the same as CSS class property. Add your custom styles for the wrapper element. You don't need to use this if useWrapper prop wasn't equal to true (it is by default).

<OutClick class="outclick-wrapper my-custom-class" />

The outclick-wrapper class is available by default. You don't need to add it yourself.

If you are going to add the wrapper styles in the same Svelte file, you must wrap the OutClick component inside another element, so you can do the following code example, so your styles won't be ignored by the Svelte compiler.

<section>
	<OutClick class="outclick-wrapper" />
</section>

<style>
	section :global(.outclick-wrapper) {}
</style>
