##Getting Started

####Including it on your page Localfile

<link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery.webui-popover.css">
...
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.webui-popover.js"></script>

Or CDN

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery.webui-popover/1.2.1/jquery.webui-popover.min.css">
...
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery.webui-popover/1.2.1/jquery.webui-popover.min.js"></script>

####Use the plugin as follows:

$('a').webuiPopover(options);

####Some Examples:

Simplest Popover

$('a').webuiPopover({title:'Title',content:'Content'});

Create Popover by dom element data-* attribute

<a href="#" data-title="Title" data-content="Contents..." data-placement="right">show pop</a>

$('a').webuiPopover();

Popover content can be easily setted by next element with class 'webui-popover-content'

<a href="#" >shop pop</a>
<div class="webui-popover-content">
   <p>popover content</p>
</div>

$('a').webuiPopover();

Or, just use jQuery selector (id selector recommended) to set the Popover content.

<a href="#" >shop pop</a>
<div id="myContent">
   <p>popover content</p>
</div>

$('a').webuiPopover({url:'#myContent'});

Popover with specified placement.

$('a').webuiPopover({title:'Title',content:'Content',placement:'bottom'});

Popover trigged by mouse hover.

$('a').webuiPopover({content:'Content',trigger:'hover'});

Create Sticky Popover.

$('a').webuiPopover({content:'Content',trigger:'sticky'});

Create Popover Dynamically (by new option:'selector').

<a href="#" id="addPop" class="btn btn-default"> add Pop </a>
<div class="pops">
      
</div>

 $('#addPop').on('click',function(e){
            $('<a href="#" class="show-pop data-placement="auto-bottom"  data-title="Dynamic Title" data-content="Dynamic content"> Dynamic created Pop </a>').appendTo('.pops');
        });

Popover with inversed style.

$('a').webuiPopover({content:'Content',style:'inverse'});

Popover with fixed width and height

$('a').webuiPopover({content:'Content',width:300,height:200});

Popover with close button

$('a').webuiPopover({title:'Title',content:'Content',closeable:true});

Animate the Popover

$('a').webuiPopover({title:'Title',content:'Content',animation:'pop'});

Popover with iframe

$('a').webuiPopover({type:'iframe',url:'http://getbootstrap.com'});

Async Mode

$('a').webuiPopover({
						type:'async',
						url:'https://api.github.com/',
						content:function(data){
 							var html = '<ul>';
 							for(var key in data){html+='<li>'+data[key]+'</li>';}
							html+='</ul>';
							return html;
						}
 					});

Async simply by url

$('a').webuiPopover({
   type:'async',
   url:'http://some.website/htmldata'
});

Trigger the Popover by manual

 //Initailize
 $('a').webuiPopover({trigger:'manual'});
...

 //Show it
 $('a').webuiPopover('show');

 //Hide it
 $('a').webuiPopover('hide');

Destroy the Popover

$('a').webuiPopover('destroy');

###Global Methods

In some situation, you may want to manipulate the plugin like 'show/hide' popovers by global methods. The new object WebuiPopovers is introduced and exposed to the global window object, so you can access these methods like 'WebuiPopovers.someMethod()...'.

Here are examples of calling code.

//Show Popover by click other element.
$('a').on('click',function(e){
	e.stopPropagation(); // Stop event propagation is needed, otherwise may trigger the document body click event handled by plugin.
	WebuiPopovers.show('#el');
});

// Show Popover with options
WebuiPopovers.show('#el',{title:' hello popover',width:300});


//Hide Popover by jQuery selector
WebuiPopovers.hide('#el');

//Hide All Popovers
WebuiPopovers.hideAll();

//Update the Popover content 
WebuiPopovers.updateContent('.btn-showpop','some html or text');


//Update the Popover content  async
WebuiPopovers.updateContentAsync('.btn-showpop','http://someUrl');

//Set global default options
WebuiPopovers.setDefaultOptions(options);

Full Methods

 	WebuiPopovers.show(selector,options); // Show popover by jQuery selector,the  options parameter is optional
	WebuiPopovers.hide(selector); // Hide  popover by jQuery selector
	WebuiPopovers.hideAll(); // Hide all popovers
	WebuiPopovers.create(selector,options);// Create and init the popover by jQuery selector.
	WebuiPopovers.isCreated(selector); // Check if the popover is already create and bind to the selector.
	WebuiPopovers.updateContent(selector,newContent) //Update the Popover content after the popover is created.
	WebuiPopovers.updateContentAsync(selector,url) //Update the Popover content asynchronously after the popover is created.
	WebuiPopovers.setDefaultOptions(options) //Change the global default options.
