Redux Flash Notification Component for Redux
An es6 growl-like notification plugin for react and redux.
Demo: Live Example | Source
Better Documentation: http://posabsolute.github.io/redux-flash-notification
Integration
1 npm install 'flash-notification-react-redux' --save
2 Add redux-thunk middleware
npm install 'redux-thunk' --save
import reduxThunk from 'redux-thunk'
const createStoreWithMiddleware = applyMiddleware(reduxThunk)(createStore);
const store = createStoreWithMiddleware()
3 Add the reducer to your root reducer
import { GrowlerReducer } from 'flash-notification-react-redux';
const rootReducer = combineReducers({
growler: GrowlerReducer,
});
export default rootReducer;
4 Add the growler component to your app root component so it is always accessible
import { GrowlerContainer } from 'flash-notification-react-redux';
export class App extends Component {
static propTypes = {
children: React.PropTypes.any,
}
render() {
return (
<section>
<GrowlerContainer />
{this.props.children}
</section>
);
}
}
5 Add webpack loaders to load es6 files.
module: {
loaders: [{
test:[/\.jsx$/, /\.js$/],
loader: 'babel',
query: {
plugins: ['transform-decorators-legacy']
},
include: [
path.resolve(__dirname, "src"),
path.resolve(__dirname, "node_modules/flash-notification-react-redux")
],
}, {
test: [/\.scss$/, /\.css$/],
loader: 'css?localIdentName=[path]!postcss-loader!sass',
}],
},
};
6 You're done.
Usage
With the reducer
You can change the store state to show the growler.
Example:
dispatch({
type: 'GROWLER__SHOW',
growler: {
text: 'Please enter your JIRA url',
type: 'growler--error',
},
});
dispatch({
type: 'GROWLER__SHOW',
growler: {
text: 'You have succesfully logged in',
type: 'growler--success',
},
});
With the actions
If made available in your components, you can use multiple actions to show the growler component,
Example:
import React from 'react';
import { bindActionCreators } from 'redux';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import {GrowlerActions} from 'actions/sprints.action';
const mapStateToProps = state => ({});
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => {
return {
...bindActionCreators(growlerActions, dispatch),
};
};
@connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)
export default class SprintsListContainer extends React.Component {
render() {
return <SprintsListComponent {...this.props} />;
}
}
Available Actions
showGrowlerSuccess(text)
showGrowlerError(text)
showGrowler(text, type)
Used when you want to show custom messages. The type will be added as a CSS class.
Options
Options are passed down when you add the component to your app root.
Option | Default Value | Default Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
shownFor | 3000 | Milliseconds | Time the growler is shown |
messages | - | Object | Localization in every supported languages of your messages |
currentLocale | enUS | String | Locale used to retrieve messages |
import { GrowlerContainer } from 'flash-notification-react-redux';
import growlerMessages from 'locales/growler.locale.js';
export class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<section>
<GrowlerContainer messages={growlerMessages} currentLocale='enUS' shownFor="9000" />
{this.props.children}
</section>
);
}
}
Messages
By default the growler will show the text passed down by the action, however when mounting the component you can specify localized text. When shown, the component will verify if the text passed match a key.
import { GrowlerContainer } from 'flash-notification-react-redux';
import growlerMessages from 'locales/growler.locale.js';
// usage in render
<GrowlerContainer messages={growlerMessages} currentLocale='enUS' />
currentLocale (default: enUS)
You can specify the language used by using the currentLocale option.
Messages object Example
{
enUS: {
error: 'There was en error'
},
frCA:
error: 'Il y a eu une erreur'
}
shownFor (default: 3000)
Time the growler is shown in milliseconds
<GrowlerContainer shownFor="6000" />
Limitations
This component is based on the use of redux, react, es6 & es7 (decorators) and webpack for loading the css as an import module.
