Passing object as data attibute (popover, data-bs-delay)

Created by: rlidwka

I want to specify a delay for bootstrap popover using data attributes, different values for 'show' and 'hide'.

I'm trying data-bs-delay='{"show":500,"hide":100}', but it shows an error:

TypeError: TOOLTIP: Option "delay" provided type "string" but expected type "(number|object)".

It worked before in bootstrap 3.3, see https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/13874 and stackoverflow.

Now the code that parses JSON is apparently gone. :(

How can we solve it?

• get JSON parsing back?
• maybe separate attributes data-bs-delay-show, data-bs-delay-hide
• maybe there is some HTML5 trickery to put an object into data-attribute I'm not aware of?
