mat-menu-hover - An Angular Material directive

This Angular directive provides functionality to handle hover menu behavior, allowing menus to open when hovered over and close when the mouse leaves.

Installation

npm install mat-menu-hover@latest

Since the directive is marked as standalone you can directly import it into a module.

import { NgModule } from  '@angular/core';
import { HoverMenuDirective } from  'mat-menu-hover';

@NgModule({
	declarations: [...],
	imports: [
		HoverMenuDirective
	],
	exports: [...]
})
export class AppModule { }

Usage

<button mat-button [matMenuTriggerFor]="menu" matHoverMenu>Menu</button>
<mat-menu #menu="matMenu">
	<!-- Menu content goes here -->
</mat-menu>

Optional inputs/outputs

Keyword	Function	Note
[closeDelay]	Adds a delay before the menu closed	Default = 50ms
(opened)	Emits if the menu is opened/closed

Known issues

• Currently it is not possible to nest menus. It will only work with single-level mat-menus.
