Initialization

  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    var elems = document.querySelectorAll('.tap-target');
    var instances = M.TapTarget.init(elems, options);
  });

  $(document).ready(function(){
    $('.tap-target').tapTarget();
  });
          

Options

Name	Type	Default	Description
onOpen	Function	null	Callback function called when Tap Target is opened.
onClose	Function	null	Callback function called when Tap Target is closed.

Methods

Because jQuery is no longer a dependency, all the methods are called on the plugin instance. You can get the plugin instance like this:

  var instance = M.TapTarget.getInstance(elem);

  /* jQuery Method Calls
    You can still use the old jQuery plugin method calls.
    But you won't be able to access instance properties.

    $('.tap-target').tapTarget('methodName');
    $('.tap-target').tapTarget('methodName', paramName);
