This is a lightweight package to send flash messages in Laravel apps. A flash message is a message that is carried over to the next request by storing it in the session. This package only supports one single flash message at a time.
This is how it can be used:
class MySpecialSnowflakeController
{
public function store()
{
// …
flash('My message', 'my-class');
return back();
}
}
In your view you can do this:
@if(flash()->message)
<div class="{{ flash()->class }}">
{{ flash()->message }}
</div>
@endif
You can install the package via composer:
composer require spatie/laravel-flash
Here is an example on how to flash a message.
class MyController
{
public function store()
{
// …
flash('My message');
return back();
}
}
In your view you can use it like this
@if(flash()->message)
<div>
{{ flash()->message }}
</div>
@endif
You can add a class as the second parameter. This is typically used to style the output in your HTML.
class MyController
{
public function store()
{
// …
flash('My message', 'my-class'));
return back();
}
}
In your view you can use the class like this:
@if(flash()->message)
<div class="{{ flash()->class }}">
{{ flash()->message }}
</div>
@endif
You can also set an array of classes. These will be output by flash()->class
by imploding the array with a space-delimiter.
flash('My message', ['my-class', 'another-class'])); // flash()->class output is: 'my-class another-class'
If you don't want to specify a class each time you flash a message you can add a method name to flash
.
The easiest way is by passing an array to the levels
method. The key is the method name that should be added to flash()
. The value is the class that will automatically be used when rendering the message.
// this would probably go in a service provider
\Spatie\Flash\Flash::levels([
'success' => 'alert-success',
'warning' => 'alert-warning',
'error' => 'alert-error',
]);
The above example will make these methods available on flash
:
flash()->success('Hurray');
flash()->warning('Mayybeee');
flash()->error('Oh Oh');
Additionally, when you've added your own method, you can also pass that method name as a second parameter to flash
itself:
flash('Hurray', 'success'); // `flash()->class` will output 'alert-success'
You can also add a method to flash
by using macro
.
Here's an example:
// this would probably go in a service provider
use Spatie\Flash\Message;
\Spatie\Flash\Flash::macro('warning', function(string $message) {
return $this->flashMessage(new Message($message, 'alert alert-warning'));
});
You can now use a warning
method on flash
:
flash()->warning('Look above you!');
This package is intended to be lightweight. If you need things like multiple messages, support for Bootstrap, overlays, ... take a look at this excellent flash package by Jeffrey Way or Laraflash by Ilya Sakovich.
