ui-notifier (live demo)

A simple, lightweight module for displaying notifications, flash messages, toasts in your AngularJS app.

IE9+ (AngularJS v1.3.x no longer supports IE8) and the latest versions of Chrome, FireFox and Safari have been tested and are supported. If you do run across any issues, please submit a new issue and I'll take a look - or better yet - submit a PR with the bug fix and I'll merge it in.

You can check out the vitals and demo here: http://mihnsen.github.io/ui-notifier

Comming soon

Implementation

Requirements

AngularJS is the only dependency. Animation is achieved with pure JS, jQuery not necessary.

Installation

You can install ui-notifier with Bower.

bower install ui-notifier --save

You can also install ui-notifier with npm.

npm install ui-notifier --save

And as always, you can download the source files straight from this repo - they're located in the dist dir. Be sure to include the minified version of both js and css files.

Usage

After including ui-notifier.min.js and ui-notifier.min.css, inject the ui-notifier provider into your project.

var app = angular.module('App', ['uiNotifier']);

Now you can trigger notifications from anywhere in your app. To display a notification, just use the set method.

uiFlash.success('You have added success message!');

To specify the type of notification to display, provide type funxtion. (For available types, check the definitions below.)

uiFlash.success('Your message goes here!', 5000);
uiFlash.info('Your message goes here!');
uiFlash.warning('Your message goes here!');
uiFlash.error('Your message goes here!');

Advanced Usage

Global default configurations

You can also pass an object of options to flash messages. You can pass through any combination of our available options here as well. Here is setting in App.config (For available options, check the definitions below.) For example:

uiFlash.setOptions({
    position: 'top',
    duration: 3000,
    limit: 3,
    single: false,
    closeBtn: true,
    module: false,
    html: false
});

Directive confirguration

Two using this serivce, we have to register a directive where message showed. You also configuration option via directive attributes.

<div ui-flash-instance
    position="top",
    duration="5000",
    limit="3",
    single="false",
    close-btn="true",
    module="false"
    html="false"
></div>

HTML Notifications

HTML notifications will allow you to display messages with HTML content in them. To do this, you'll need to set the html attribute to true:

uiFlash.setOptions({
    html: true
});

In order for HTML notifications to display, you are required to include the ngSanitize script in your app (eg, via Google CDN, Bower, or code.angular.org). There's no need to add it as a dependency to uiNotifier. If uiNotifier has found the ngSanitize script, it will add it as a dependency to the uiNotifier module dynamically. Once included, you just need to toggle the html attribute to true and the module will handle the rest.

If you don't have ngSanitize included and you do set html to true, uiNotifier will gracefully degrade back to the default message display and print a debug message to remind you in your browser's console.

Module - flash message in specify container

By config module, you are able to control where your notifications are displayed. By default, the target is set to the body tag but you may provide any other CSS selector in order to control where the notification is appended. For example:

uiFlash.setOptions({
    module: true
});

** Notifications that have a custom target specified are set to display with absolute positioning, overriding the default fixed positioning. It's impossible for uiNotifier's style to fit every situation for every app, so you may have to tweak the styles to fit your specific needs when not appending notifications to the body tag - using anything other than the default target.

Notification id returned

When we add a message an unique id returned, We can using this id to control the message.

var id = uiFlash.error('This is an error message');
$timeout(function() {
    uiFlash.close(id);
}, 5000);

Custom Themes

The position, size, color, alignment and more are all styled based on the notification's classes and are all specified in the CSS file. See the style definitions below to see which classes can be used to override any of the styles within your own application.


Scss - default color scheme

.flash.flash-success {
    background-color: #5eb95e
}
.flash.flash-info {
    background-color: #0e90d2
}
.flash.flash-warning {
    background-color: #f37b1d
}
.flash.flash-error {
    background-color: #dd514c
}

Development

If you've forked or cloned the project and would like to make any sort of adjustments, there are few items to make note of. First, your system will need to have the following bits in place:

Node & NPM
gulp
karma
Scss

Second, there are a few gulp tasks that you'll be able to leverage to help validate and prepare your changes for use.

You can fire off a gulp or gulp build command manually at any time to lint, minify, and setup your demo (built in the _gh-pages dir) for testing.

gulp (or gulp build)

Also, you can run gulp dev to lint, minify, and prep your demo for testing. Once the build is complete, it'll also fire off a watch so that any changes that are made to the the sass, js, and demo files will automatically trigger the build script to update your project.

gulp

To run through the configured unit tests, you can run gulp test. This will fire off a series of tests that check that all default options are set correctly, all configurable options are able to be set correctly, and that all methods carry out the functionality that they're supposed to. These tests should let you know if any of the updates that you've made have negatively effected any preexisting functionality. Also, when the tests complete, there will be a test coverage report generated and stored in the coverage directory.

gulp test

To public gh-pages you can using command bellow. A folder with name _gh-pages contain all file in your gh-pages repo will be generated. Read here to config your gh-pages:

gulp gh-pages

Next, you'll want to do all of your development within three locations. If you add changes anywhere else, they're likely to be overwritten during the build process. These locations are:

src/scripts/ui-notifier.js - for any script modifications.

src/scss/ui-notifier.scss - for any style modifications.

demo/* - for any modifications to the demo.

Lastly, once you've made your changes and run through the appropriate gulp tasks, your changes should be baked and ready for you to consume - located in the dist directory as minified js and css files.
