Angular 2 Material tooltip with HTML content in angular

Question

I am trying to bind the HTML strings into angular 2 tool tip. But it's rendering as HTML it showing as a plain string. Is there any way to do render string as an HTML.

Here is my code:

In View:

 <span class="icon-status" mdTooltip="{{value.status}}"></span>

Component:

value.status = this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(this.getStatusTemplate(value.status));


  getStatusTemplate(status: IIconStatus): string{
let HTML =`
  <div>Event Title</div>
  <div class="">
    <table>
      <thead>
        <th>User</th>
        <th>User</th>
        <th>User</th>
        <th>User</th>
      </thead>
    </table>
  </div>
`;
return HTML;}

Thanks in advance.

Bad news for us: HTML is not supported in angular material tooltips and for now, they don't have intentions to support it. Here more info.

Answer 2

It's not well tested, but I did it by defining setter for "message" property on TooltipComponent(app.component.ts)

Object.defineProperty(TooltipComponent.prototype, 'message', {
   set(v: any) {
       const el = document.querySelectorAll('.mat-tooltip');

       if (el) {
           el[el.length - 1].innerHTML = v;
       }
   },
});

html

<div [matTooltipClass]="'right'"
     [matTooltip]="aboveTemplate"
     matTooltipPosition="right">
    Right
</div>

ts

aboveTemplate = `<div class="color-red">Top Template<button style="background: white; color: black">Press me</button></div>`;
