SnackbarJS is a lightweight and jQuery powered plugin made to work in Bootstrap style, just like the Bootstrap tooltips work.
Include it with:
<head>
<link href=snackbar.min.css rel=stylesheet>
</head>
<body>
...
<script src=snackbar.min.js></script>
</body>
Using it is as easy as writing:
<span data-toggle=snackbar data-content="This is my awesome snackbar!">Click me</span>
or
$.snackbar({content: "This is my awesome snackbar!"});
Following options are supported to customize SnackbarJS look and beahvior:
var options = {
content: "Some text", // text of the snackbar
style: "toast", // add a custom class to your snackbar
timeout: 100 // time in milliseconds after the snackbar autohides, 0 is disabled
}
$.snackbar(options);
Tip: SnackbarJS returns always a jQuery element which corresponds to the snackbar DOM element, you can use it to get the ID of the element, and then do other operations with it.
Once you have created a snackbar you can show, hide or toggle it with:
$("#snackbarid").snackbar("show");
$("#snackbarid").snackbar("hide");
$("#snackbarid").snackbar("toggle");
#snackbarid
can be both the button with the data-toggle=snackbar attribute or the snackbar element.
Calling it on a non-existing snackbar will create it before executing the specificed action.
