A super simple but flexible implementation of toast style notifications for React, initially based on the excellent implementation found in Evergreen.

Install:

Example

import toaster from 'toasted-notes';
import 'toasted-notes/src/styles.css'; // optional styles

const HelloWorld = () => (
  <button onClick={() => {
    toaster.notify('Hello world', {
      duration: 2000
    })
  }}>
    Say hello
  </button>
)
React JSX

API

The notify function accepts either a string, a react node, or a render callback.

// using a string
toaster.notify('With a simple string')

// using jsx
toaster.notify(<div>Hi there</div>)

// using a render callback
toaster.notify(({ onClose }) => (
  <div>
    <span>My custom toaster</span>
    <button onClick={onClose}>Close me please</button>
  </div>
))
React JSX

It also accepts options.

toaster.notify('Hello world', {
  position: 'bottom-left', // top-left, top, top-right, bottom-left, bottom, bottom-right
  duration: null // This notification will not automatically close
})
JavaScript

Using Context

One downside to the current API is that render callbacks and custom nodes won't get access to any application context, such as theming variables provided by styled-components. To ensure that render callbacks have access to the necessary context, you'll need to supply that context to the callback.

const CustomNotification = ({ title }) => {
  const theme = useTheme()
  return <div style={{ color: theme.primary }}>{title}</div>
}

const CustomNotificationWithTheme = withTheme(CustomNotification)

toaster.notify(() => <CustomNotificationWithTheme title="I am pretty" />)
React JSX
