Express Flash Plus
Flash Messages for your Express Application
Flash is an extension of connect-flash with the ability to define a flash message and render it without redirecting the request.
express-flash-plus is a fork of the original express-flash module but it contains several pull request the original repo still have not been accepted:
- @onnlucky This fixes empty sessions being created when there are no flashes.
- @Fardinak This adds a name to the main function for debugging
- @creativetechnologylab This extends the functionality to provide an array of flashes that can be iterated over, rather than using the messages system which doesn't support multiple flashes of the same type, the example code for PUG/Jade also results in less duplicated code.
- @ual-cci Updated all the package versions to fix security issues then repaired broken tests from major/breaking version changes, moved from Jade to PUG, etc...
Installation
Works with Express 4.x.x
npm install express-flash-plus
Usage
