Installation

NPM

Install via npm:

npm i @dmuy/toast

Include in your app

import '@dmuy/toast/dist/mdtoast.css'
import mdtoast from '@dmuy/toast'

CDN

Use the following if you don't want to host the js and css files:

UNPKG

https://unpkg.com/@dmuy/toast@{version}/dist/mdtoast.css
https://unpkg.com/@dmuy/toast@{version}/dist/mdtoast.js

jsDelivr

https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/dmuy/Material-Toast@{version}/dist/mdtoast.css
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/dmuy/Material-Toast@{version}/dist/mdtoast.js

For production, use the minified version by adding .min to the file name (i.e. mdtoast.min.js)

Note: Replace {version} with the version you want to use.

Local Copy

Copy mdtoast.css and mdtoast.js (or the minified versions *.min.js and *.min.css) in the dist folder and include in your app:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{path-to}/mdtoast.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="{path-to}/mdtoast.js"></script>

Note: Replace {path-to} with the absolute or relative path to where you copied the css and js files.

Options

You can add options when calling mdtoast() to fit your needs. Below are the options you can use:

Option	Defaut	Description
init	`false`	Determines if toast is initialize-only (meaning toast will not show unless `show()` is called
duration	`5000`	Determines the toast display duration (in milliseconds).
type	`default`	Determines the type of toast to display. Other types in `mdtoast`: `INFO`, `WARNING`, `SUCCESS`, `ERROR`. Or you can just type these string values: `info`, `warning`, `success`, `error`.
position	`bottom left`	Determines the position of the toast on the screen. Acceptable values: `top left`, `top center`, `top right`, `bottom left`, `bottom center`, `bottom right`.
modal	`false`	Determines if toast is modal (pointer events on other elements will be disabled).
interaction	`false`	Determines if toast requires user interaction to dismiss or has some sort of user interaction button to click.
interactionTimeout	`null`	Determines the toast duration (timeout to dismiss) if `interaction` is set to `true`. This overrides the `duration` option if `interaction` is set to `true`.
actionText	`OK`	The action text to display for user interaction (e.g. `UNDO` -> showing toast after archiving items and giving the user an option to undo archiving.)
action	`hide()`	This will be the function to be called when the user clicks the action text. The default calls the toast's `hide()` method.
callbacks	`{}`	You can place the callbacks `hidden()` and `shown()` in this option if you have some things to do after the toast is shown or hidden.

Usage

Call mdtoast():

// Initializes and shows default toast or with the 'new' keyword - i.e new mdtoast(...)
mdtoast('This is a toast message.');

Using configurations

Below is an example of storing your toast in a variable for future reuse:

// Initializes default toast with duration of 10 seconds (this will not show the toast since init is set to true)
var myToast = mdtoast('This is a toast message.', { duration: 10000, init: true }); 

// Displays the toast
myToast.show();

Different types of toast:

// Initializes different toasts with duration of 10 seconds
// Info
mdtoast('This is an info toast.', { duration: 10000, type: mdtoast.INFO });      // or type: 'info'
mdtoast.info('This is an info toast.', { duration: 10000 });

// Error
mdtoast('This is an error toast.', { duration: 10000, type: mdtoast.ERROR });    // or type: 'error'
mdtoast.error('This is an error toast.', { duration: 10000 });

// Warning
mdtoast('This is a warning toast.', { duration: 10000, type: mdtoast.WARNING }); // or type: 'warning'
mdtoast.warning('This is a warning toast.', { duration: 10000 });

// Success
mdtoast('This is a success toast.', { duration: 10000, type: mdtoast.SUCCESS }); // or type: 'success'
mdtoast.success('This is a success toast.', { duration: 10000 });

Specifying toast action:

// Initializes a toast with action (this toast will not dismiss unless 'interactionTimeout' is specified)
mdtoast('Message archived.', {
  type: 'success', 
  interaction: true, actionText: 'UNDO', 
  action: function(){
    //TODO: Undo codes here...
    this.hide(); // this is the toast instance
  }
});

Vue 2

In your app.js

import Vue from 'vue'
import vueToast from '@dmuy/toast/vue-toast'

Vue.use(vueToast)

Vue 3

In your app.js

import { createApp } from 'vue'
import vueToast from '@dmuy/toast/vue3-toast'

const app = createApp({
  /* root component options */
})

app.use(vueToast)

Nuxt

In the plugins folder, create mdtoast.js and paste the script above.

In nuxt.config.js

export default {
  plugins: [
    '@/plugins/mdtoast.js'
  ]
}

Usage (Nuxt, Vue 2, Vue 3 Options API)

In your components or pages, you can access the mdtoast() as this.$mdtoast()

// script
export default {
  mounted() {
    // default
    this.$mdtoast('This is a toast message!')
    // with options
    this.$mdtoast('Message archived', { type: 'success' })
  }
}

Usage (Vue 3 Composition API)

In your <script setup>

import { inject } from 'vue'

const mdtoast = inject('mdtoast')

// then use like
function toast(message) {
  mdtoast('This is a toast message!')
}
