const onSubmit = async value => {
const { error } = await dataPersistenceLayer(value);
if (error) {
addToast(error.message, { appearance: "error" });
} else {
addToast("Saved Successfully", { appearance: "success" });
}
};
return <form onSubmit={onSubmit}>...</form>;
};
const App = () => (
<ToastProvider>
<FormWithToasts />
</ToastProvider>
);

Hook
The useToast
hook has the following signature:
const {
addToast,
removeToast,
removeAllToasts,
updateToast,
toastStack
} = useToasts();
The addToast
method has three arguments:
- The first is the content of the toast, which can be any renderable
Node
. - The second is the
Options
object, which can take any shape you like.Options.appearance
is required when using theDefaultToast
. When departing from the default shape, you must provide an alternative, compliantToast
component. - The third is an optional callback, which is passed the added toast
ID
.
The removeToast
method has two arguments:
- The first is the
ID
of the toast to remove. - The second is an optional callback.
The removeAllToasts
method has no arguments.
The updateToast
method has three arguments:
- The first is the
ID
of the toast to update. - The second is the
Options
object, which differs slightly from the add method because it accepts acontent
property. - The third is an optional callback, which is passed the updated toast
ID
.
The toastStack
is an array of objects representing the current toasts, e.g.
[
{
content: "Something went wrong",
id: "generated-string",
appearance: "error"
},
{ content: "Item saved", id: "generated-string", appearance: "success" }
];
Replaceable Components
To bring each toast notification inline with your app, you can provide alternative components to the ToastProvider
:
import { ToastProvider } from "@blaze-cms/toaster";
const MyCustomToast = ({ appearance, children }) => (
<div style={{ background: appearance === "error" ? "red" : "green" }}>
{children}
</div>
);
const App = () => (
<ToastProvider components={{ Toast: MyCustomToast }}>...</ToastProvider>
);
To customize the existing component instead of creating a new one, you may import DefaultToast
:
import { DefaultToast } from "@blaze-cms/toaster";
export const MyCustomToast = ({ children, ...props }) => (
<DefaultToast {...props}>
<SomethingSpecial>{children}</SomethingSpecial>
</DefaultToast>
);
