Vue Sure Toast

Vue Sure Toast is a simple VueJS toast plugin. This plugin contains built in features for theming, position, and more. See below for a full list of features.

Installation

First import the plugin.

import SureToast from 'vue-sure-toast';

Then configure the plugin with Vue.

// The simplest implementation.
Vue.use(SureToast);

// You can set default option values for the plugin here.  See a full list of options below.
Vue.use(SureToast, options);

// Here is a sample that sets the position and theme for all the toasts.
Vue.use(SureToast, {
  position: 'top-left',
  theme: 'warning'
});

Basic Usage

Displaying a toast message from within a component.

// The simplest method for displaying toast.
this.$sureToast.show(message);

this.$sureToast.show(message, icon);

this.$sureToast.show(message, icon, options);

The options parameter can contain an action that will be appended to the toast an a link.

this.$sureToast.show('I am a toast message', 'fa fa-info-circle', {
  interval: 5000,
  enableManualDismiss: true,
  action: { 
    text: 'DISMISS', 
    onClick: (e, toast) => { alert('TOAST CLICKED: ' + toast); } 
  }
});

You can also pass an array of actions when displaying a toast. If you pass both the 'action' and 'actions' property the 'action' property will take precedence over 'actions'. Make sure you pass one to save yourself some trouble.

this.$sureToast.show('I am a toast message', 'fa fa-info-circle', {
  interval: 5000,
  enableManualDismiss: true,
  actions: [
    { 
      text: 'OPEN', 
      onClick: (e, toast) => { alert('OPEN CLICKED: ' + toast); } 
    },
    { 
      text: 'DISMISS', 
      onClick: (e, toast) => { alert('CLOSE CLICKED: ' + toast); } 
    }
  ]
});

Toast Hooks

There are to methods you can hook into that will get fired when a toast is opened or closed.

// If you want a fire onOpened or onClosed for a specific toast you can do it like so.
this.$sureToast.show('I am a toast message', 'fa fa-info-circle', {
  interval: 5000,
  onOpened(e) {
    console.log('toast opened');
  },
  onClosed(e) {
    console.log('toast closed');
  }
});

If you want to fire the onOpened and onClosed for all the toasts you can pass define your functions in the plugin options.

Vue.use(SureToast, {
  onOpened() {
    console.log('toast opened');
  },
  onClosed() {
    console.log('toast closed');
  }
});

Any plugin level options that are passed through the show function will be ignored by the plugin.
