Breaking Changes

Animation Changes

The following animations options have been deprecated and should be replaced:

  • Replace options.fadeIn with options.showDuration
  • Replace options.onFadeIn with options.onShown
  • Replace options.fadeOut with options.hideDuration
  • Replace options.onFadeOut with options.onHidden

Quick Start

3 Easy Steps

For other API calls, see the demo.

  1. Link to toasti.css <link href="toasti.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

  2. Link to toasti.js <script src="toasti.js"></script>

  3. use toasti to display a toast for info, success, warning or error

    // Display an info toast with no title
    toasti.info('Are you the 6 fingered man?')

Other Options

// Display a warning toast, with no title
toasti.warning('My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father, prepare to die!')

// Display a success toast, with a title
toasti.success('Have fun storming the castle!', 'Miracle Max Says')

// Display an error toast, with a title
toasti.error('I do not think that word means what you think it means.', 'Inconceivable!')

// Immediately remove current toasts without using animation
toasti.remove()

// Remove current toasts using animation
toasti.clear()

// Override global options
toasti.success('We do have the Kapua suite available.', 'Turtle Bay Resort', {timeOut: 5000})

Escape HTML characters

In case you want to escape HTML characters in title and message

toasti.options.escapeHtml = true;

Close Button

Optionally enable a close button

toasti.options.closeButton = true;

Optionally override the close button's HTML.

toasti.options.closeHtml = '<button><i class="icon-off"></i></button>';

You can also override the CSS/LESS for #toast-container .toast-close-button

Optionally override the hide animation when the close button is clicked (falls back to hide configuration).

toasti.options.closeMethod = 'fadeOut';
toasti.options.closeDuration = 300;
toasti.options.closeEasing = 'swing';

Display Sequence

Show newest toast at bottom (top is default)

toasti.options.newestOnTop = false;

Callbacks

// Define a callback for when the toast is shown/hidden/clicked
toasti.options.onShown = function() { console.log('hello'); }
toasti.options.onHidden = function() { console.log('goodbye'); }
toasti.options.onclick = function() { console.log('clicked'); }
toasti.options.onCloseClick = function() { console.log('close button clicked'); }

Animation Options

toasti will supply default animations, so you do not have to provide any of these settings. However you have the option to override the animations if you like.

Easings

Optionally override the animation easing to show or hide the toasts. Default is swing. swing and linear are built into jQuery.

toasti.options.showEasing = 'swing';
toasti.options.hideEasing = 'linear';
toasti.options.closeEasing = 'linear';

Using the jQuery Easing plugin (http://www.gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/)

toasti.options.showEasing = 'easeOutBounce';
toasti.options.hideEasing = 'easeInBack';
toasti.options.closeEasing = 'easeInBack';

Animation Method

Use the jQuery show/hide method of your choice. These default to fadeIn/fadeOut. The methods fadeIn/fadeOut, slideDown/slideUp, and show/hide are built into jQuery.

toasti.options.showMethod = 'slideDown';
toasti.options.hideMethod = 'slideUp';
toasti.options.closeMethod = 'slideUp';

Prevent Duplicates

Rather than having identical toasts stack, set the preventDuplicates property to true. Duplicates are matched to the previous toast based on their message content.

toasti.options.preventDuplicates = true;

Timeouts

Control how toasti interacts with users by setting timeouts appropriately.

toasti.options.timeOut = 30; // How long the toast will display without user interaction
toasti.options.extendedTimeOut = 60; // How long the toast will display after a user hovers over it

Prevent from Auto Hiding

To prevent toasti from closing based on the timeouts, set the timeOut and extendedTimeOut options to 0. The toasti will persist until selected.

toasti.options.timeOut = 0;
toasti.options.extendedTimeOut = 0;

Progress Bar

Visually indicate how long before a toast expires.

toasti.options.progressBar = true;

rtl

Flip the toasti to be displayed properly for right-to-left languages.

toasti.options.rtl = true;

Building toasti

To build the minified and css versions of toasti you will need node installed. (Use Homebrew or Chocolatey.)

npm install -g gulp karma-cli
npm install

At this point the dependencies have been installed and you can build toasti

  • Run the analytics gulp analyze
  • Run the test gulp test
  • Run the build gulp
