## Tooltip System

### Overview

The Tooltip System provides automatic tooltip initialization and management for LiveComponent elements. Tooltips are automatically initialized when components are mounted and cleaned up when components are destroyed.

**Features**:
- Automatic initialization for `data-tooltip` attributes
- Accessibility support (ARIA attributes)
- Smart positioning (viewport-aware)
- Validation error tooltips
- Automatic cleanup

### Basic Usage

```html
<!-- Simple tooltip -->
<button
    data-lc-action="save"
    data-tooltip="Save your changes"
>
    Save
</button>

<!-- Tooltip with validation error -->
<input
    type="email"
    data-lc-action="validateEmail"
    data-tooltip="Enter a valid email address"
    data-tooltip-error="Invalid email format"
/>
```

### Server-Side Validation Tooltips

```php
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\Attributes\Action;
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\ValueObjects\LiveComponentError;

final class UserForm extends LiveComponent
{
    #[Action]
    public function validateEmail(string $email): void
    {
        if (!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
            // Error will automatically show tooltip if element has data-tooltip-error
            throw LiveComponentError::validation(
                'Invalid email format',
                ['field' => 'email'],
                $this->id->toString(),
                'validateEmail'
            );
        }
    }
}
```

### Custom Tooltip Configuration

```javascript
// Configure tooltip behavior globally
import { tooltipManager } from './modules/livecomponent/TooltipManager.js';

// Adjust delays
tooltipManager.tooltipDelay = 500; // Show after 500ms
tooltipManager.hideDelay = 200;   // Hide after 200ms
```

### Tooltip Events

```javascript
// Listen for tooltip events
window.addEventListener('livecomponent:tooltip-shown', (e) => {
    const { element, tooltipText } = e.detail;
    console.log(`Tooltip shown: ${tooltipText}`);
});

window.addEventListener('livecomponent:tooltip-hidden', (e) => {
    const { element } = e.detail;
    console.log('Tooltip hidden');
});
```

## Loading States & Skeleton Loading

### Overview

The Loading State System provides configurable loading indicators during LiveComponent actions, including skeleton loaders, spinners, and progress indicators.

**Features**:
- Fragment-specific loading
- Configurable loading types (skeleton, spinner, progress, none)
- Smooth transitions
- Optimistic UI integration (no loading for optimistic actions)
- Per-component configuration

### Basic Usage

```html
<!-- Component with skeleton loading -->
<div
    data-live-component="product-list"
    data-loading-type="skeleton"
    data-loading-fragments="product-list"
>
    <div data-lc-fragment="product-list">
        <!-- Skeleton template will be shown during loading -->
        <div class="skeleton-item">
            <div class="skeleton-image"></div>
            <div class="skeleton-text"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
```

### Server-Side Loading Configuration

```php
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\Attributes\Action;
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\Attributes\Loading;

final class ProductList extends LiveComponent
{
    #[Action]
    #[Loading(type: 'skeleton', fragments: ['product-list'], showDelay: 150)]
    public function loadProducts(string $category): void
    {
        $this->products = $this->productService->getByCategory($category);
    }

    #[Action]
    #[Loading(type: 'spinner', showDelay: 0)] // Show immediately
    public function quickAction(): void
    {
        // Fast action with immediate spinner
    }
}
```

### Loading Types

#### 1. Skeleton Loading

```html
<!-- Skeleton template in component -->
<div data-lc-fragment="content">
    <!-- Default content -->
    <div class="product-card">
        <img src="{product.image}" />
        <h3>{product.name}</h3>
    </div>

    <!-- Skeleton template (shown during loading) -->
    <template data-skeleton-template>
        <div class="product-card skeleton">
            <div class="skeleton-image"></div>
            <div class="skeleton-text"></div>
        </div>
    </template>
</div>
```

#### 2. Spinner Loading

```html
<!-- Automatic spinner overlay -->
<div
    data-live-component="component-id"
    data-loading-type="spinner"
>
    <!-- Spinner automatically appears during actions -->
</div>
```

#### 3. Progress Loading

```html
<!-- Progress bar for long-running actions -->
<div
    data-live-component="upload-component"
    data-loading-type="progress"
>
    <div class="progress-bar" data-progress="0"></div>
</div>
```

### Custom Loading Configuration

```javascript
// Configure loading behavior per component
const component = LiveComponentManager.getInstance().getComponent('component-id');

component.setLoadingConfig({
    type: 'skeleton',
    fragments: ['content', 'sidebar'],
    showDelay: 150,
    hideDelay: 100
});
```

### Loading Events

```javascript
// Listen for loading state changes
window.addEventListener('livecomponent:loading-started', (e) => {
    const { componentId, type, fragments } = e.detail;
    console.log(`Loading started: ${componentId} (${type})`);
});

window.addEventListener('livecomponent:loading-finished', (e) => {
    const { componentId, duration } = e.detail;
    console.log(`Loading finished: ${componentId} (${duration}ms)`);
});
```

## UI Helper System

### Overview

The UI Helper System provides a standardized way for LiveComponents to interact with common UI elements like dialogs, modals, and notifications.

**Features**:
- Unified API for UI components
- Integration with UIManager
- Promise-based API
- Automatic cleanup
- Component-scoped UI elements

### Dialog & Modal Helpers

```php
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\Attributes\Action;

final class UserManagement extends LiveComponent
{
    #[Action]
    public function showDeleteConfirm(int $userId): void
    {
        // Show confirmation dialog via UI Helper
        $this->uiHelper->showDialog(
            title: 'Delete User',
            message: 'Are you sure you want to delete this user?',
            buttons: [
                ['label' => 'Cancel', 'action' => 'cancel'],
                ['label' => 'Delete', 'action' => 'confirm', 'variant' => 'danger']
            ]
        )->then(function($action) use ($userId) {
            if ($action === 'confirm') {
                $this->deleteUser($userId);
            }
        });
    }
}
```

### JavaScript API

```javascript
import { LiveComponentUIHelper } from './modules/livecomponent/LiveComponentUIHelper.js';

const uiHelper = new LiveComponentUIHelper(liveComponentManager);

// Show modal
const action = await uiHelper.showModal('component-id', {
    title: 'Confirm Action',
    content: '<p>Are you sure?</p>',
    size: 'medium',
    buttons: [
        { label: 'Cancel', action: 'cancel' },
        { label: 'Confirm', action: 'confirm', variant: 'primary' }
    ]
});

if (action === 'confirm') {
    // Handle confirmation
}

// Show alert
await uiHelper.showAlert('component-id', {
    title: 'Success',
    message: 'Operation completed successfully',
    type: 'success'
});

// Show confirm dialog
const confirmed = await uiHelper.showConfirm('component-id', {
    title: 'Delete Item',
    message: 'This action cannot be undone.',
    confirmText: 'Delete',
    cancelText: 'Cancel'
});
```

### Notification Helpers

```javascript
// Show notification
uiHelper.showNotification('component-id', 'Operation successful', 'success');

// Show error notification with retry
uiHelper.showErrorNotification(
    'component-id',
    'Upload failed. Please try again.',
    'error',
    true, // Can retry
    () => {
        // Retry logic
        retryUpload();
    }
);

// Hide notification
uiHelper.hideNotification('component-id');
```

## Notification Component

### Overview

The NotificationComponent is a full-featured LiveComponent for displaying toast notifications with support for different types, positions, durations, and action buttons.

**Features**:
- Type-safe state management
- Multiple notification types (info, success, warning, error)
- Configurable positions (top-right, top-left, bottom-right, bottom-left)
- Auto-dismiss with duration
- Action buttons
- Icon support

### Basic Usage

```php
use App\Application\LiveComponents\Notification\NotificationComponent;
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\ValueObjects\ComponentId;

final class ProductController
{
    public function create(): ViewResult
    {
        $notification = NotificationComponent::mount(
            ComponentId::generate('notification'),
            message: 'Product created successfully',
            type: 'success',
            duration: 5000
        );

        return new ViewResult('product/index', [
            'notification' => $notification
        ]);
    }
}
```

### Template Integration

```html
<!-- Include notification component in layout -->
{notification}

<!-- Or use in component template -->
<div data-live-component="{notification.id}">
    <!-- Notification will render here -->
</div>
```

### Server-Side Actions

```php
final class NotificationExample extends LiveComponent
{
    #[Action]
    public function showSuccess(): NotificationState
    {
        return NotificationState::empty()
            ->withMessage('Operation successful!', 'success')
            ->show();
    }

    #[Action]
    public function showError(string $message): NotificationState
    {
        return NotificationState::empty()
            ->withMessage($message, 'error')
            ->show();
    }

    #[Action]
    public function showWithAction(): NotificationState
    {
        return new NotificationState(
            message: 'File uploaded successfully',
            type: 'success',
            isVisible: true,
            actionText: 'View',
            actionUrl: '/files'
        );
    }
}
```

### Client-Side API

```javascript
// Show notification via LiveComponent action
liveComponentManager.executeAction('notification-id', 'showNotification', {
    message: 'Operation successful',
    type: 'success',
    duration: 5000
});

// Hide notification
liveComponentManager.executeAction('notification-id', 'hide');
```

### Notification Types

```php
// Info notification
$notification = NotificationState::empty()
    ->withMessage('New update available', 'info')
    ->show();

// Success notification
$notification = NotificationState::empty()
    ->withMessage('Changes saved', 'success')
    ->show();

// Warning notification
$notification = NotificationState::empty()
    ->withMessage('Low disk space', 'warning')
    ->show();

// Error notification
$notification = NotificationState::empty()
    ->withMessage('Upload failed', 'error')
    ->show();
```

### Notification Positions

```php
$notification = new NotificationState(
    message: 'Notification message',
    type: 'info',
    position: 'top-right', // or 'top-left', 'bottom-right', 'bottom-left'
    isVisible: true
);
```

### Notification with Action Button

```php
$notification = new NotificationState(
    message: 'File ready for download',
    type: 'success',
    isVisible: true,
    actionText: 'Download',
    actionUrl: '/download/file.pdf'
);
```

## Dialog & Modal Integration

### Overview

LiveComponents integrate seamlessly with the UIManager for dialogs and modals, providing a consistent API across the application.

### Basic Modal Usage

```php
use App\Framework\LiveComponents\Attributes\Action;

final class UserSettings extends LiveComponent
{
    #[Action]
    public function showEditModal(int $userId): void
    {
        // Modal will be shown via UI Helper
        $this->uiHelper->showModal(
            title: 'Edit User',
            content: $this->renderEditForm($userId),
            size: 'large',
            buttons: [
                ['label' => 'Save', 'action' => 'save', 'variant' => 'primary'],
                ['label' => 'Cancel', 'action' => 'cancel']
            ]
        );
    }
}
```

### Modal with LiveComponent Content

```php
#[Action]
public function showUserModal(int $userId): void
{
    $userComponent = UserDetailsComponent::mount(
        ComponentId::generate('user-details'),
        userId: $userId
    );

    $this->uiHelper->showModal(
        title: 'User Details',
        content: $userComponent->render(),
        size: 'medium'
    );
}
```

### Modal Events

```javascript
// Listen for modal events
window.addEventListener('livecomponent:modal-opened', (e) => {
    const { componentId, modalInstance } = e.detail;
    console.log(`Modal opened for component: ${componentId}`);
});

window.addEventListener('livecomponent:modal-closed', (e) => {
    const { componentId, action } = e.detail;
    console.log(`Modal closed with action: ${action}`);
});
```

## Best Practices

### 1. Tooltip Usage

- **Do**: Use tooltips for helpful context and validation errors
- **Don't**: Overuse tooltips - they can be distracting
- **Accessibility**: Always ensure tooltips are keyboard-accessible

```html
<!-- Good: Helpful tooltip -->
<button data-tooltip="Save your changes (Ctrl+S)">
    Save
</button>

<!-- Bad: Obvious tooltip -->
<button data-tooltip="Click to save">
    Save
</button>
```

### 2. Loading States

- **Do**: Use skeleton loading for content-heavy updates
- **Do**: Use spinners for quick actions (< 500ms)
- **Don't**: Show loading for optimistic UI updates
- **Do**: Configure appropriate delays to prevent flickering

```php
// Good: Appropriate loading type
#[Loading(type: 'skeleton', fragments: ['product-list'])]
public function loadProducts(): void { }

// Good: Quick action with spinner
#[Loading(type: 'spinner', showDelay: 0)]
public function toggleFavorite(): void { }
```

### 3. Notifications

- **Do**: Use notifications for important feedback
- **Don't**: Overuse notifications - they can be annoying
- **Do**: Set appropriate durations (5s for success, longer for errors)
- **Do**: Provide action buttons for actionable notifications

```php
// Good: Clear, actionable notification
$notification = new NotificationState(
    message: 'File uploaded successfully',
    type: 'success',
    duration: 5000,
    actionText: 'View',
    actionUrl: '/files'
);

// Bad: Too many notifications
// Don't show a notification for every minor action
```

### 4. Modals & Dialogs

- **Do**: Use modals for important confirmations
- **Don't**: Overuse modals - they interrupt user flow
- **Do**: Provide clear action buttons
- **Do**: Support keyboard navigation (Escape to close)

```php
// Good: Clear confirmation dialog
$this->uiHelper->showConfirm(
    title: 'Delete Item',
    message: 'This action cannot be undone.',
    confirmText: 'Delete',
    cancelText: 'Cancel'
);
```

### 5. Error Handling

- **Do**: Use ErrorBoundary for automatic error handling
- **Do**: Show user-friendly error messages
- **Do**: Provide retry options for recoverable errors
- **Don't**: Show technical error details to users

```php
// Good: User-friendly error
throw LiveComponentError::validation(
    'Please enter a valid email address',
    ['field' => 'email'],
    $this->id->toString()
);

// Bad: Technical error
throw new \Exception('Invalid email format: ' . $email);
```

---

## Configuration

### Global Configuration

```javascript
import { sharedConfig } from './modules/livecomponent/SharedConfig.js';

// Configure default values
sharedConfig.defaultDebounce = 300;
sharedConfig.defaultCacheTTL = 5000;
sharedConfig.defaultLoadingShowDelay = 150;
sharedConfig.defaultLoadingType = 'skeleton';
sharedConfig.defaultNotificationDuration = 5000;
sharedConfig.defaultNotificationPosition = 'top-right';
sharedConfig.defaultModalAnimation = 'fade';
```

### Per-Component Configuration

```html
<!-- Component-level configuration -->
<div
    data-live-component="component-id"
    data-loading-type="skeleton"
    data-loading-show-delay="200"
    data-notification-position="bottom-right"
>
    <!-- Component content -->
</div>
```

---

## Troubleshooting

### Tooltips Not Showing

1. Check that `data-tooltip` attribute is present
2. Verify TooltipManager is initialized
3. Check browser console for errors
4. Ensure element is visible and not hidden

### Loading States Not Working

1. Verify `data-loading-type` attribute is set
2. Check that fragments match between HTML and PHP
3. Ensure LoadingStateManager is initialized
4. Check for JavaScript errors in console

### Notifications Not Displaying

1. Verify NotificationComponent is mounted
2. Check that component ID matches
3. Ensure state is properly serialized
4. Check browser console for errors

### Modals Not Opening

1. Verify UIManager is initialized
2. Check that modal content is valid HTML
3. Ensure no JavaScript errors are blocking execution
4. Check z-index conflicts
