toast's Introduction

toast 🍞

A lightweight easy-to-use toast library

Installation

yarn add @gino/toast

npm install @gino/toast

Basic usage

You must wrap your App component with our ToastProvider to access the required context.

import { ToastProvider } from "@gino/toast"

<ToastProvider>
  <Component {...pageProps} />
</ToastProvider>

To create a toast, simply use the toast function exported from the useToast hook.

const { toast } = useToast();

<button
  onClick={() => {
    toast("This is my toast");
  }}
>
  Add toast
</button>

Rendering toasts

We have made this library as flexibile as possible. In order to render toasts, you can simply map over the toasts array that is exported by the useToasts hook.

const { toasts, removeToast } = useToast();

return (
  <ul>
    {toasts.map((toast) => (
      <li key={toast.id}>
        <div>{toast.message}</div>
        <button onClick={() => removeToast(toast.id)}>Close toast</button>
      </li>
    ))}
  </ul>
)

Making toasts disappear after a certain time

To make toasts disappear after a certain amount of time, we have created a useToastTimer hook that easily handles all this functionality for you. To see this feature in action, please refer to our example project.

import { useToastTimer } from "@gino/toast"

const ref = useToastTimer<HTMLDivElement>(toast.id, {
  duration: 3,
  pauseOnHover: true,
});

return (
  <div ref={ref}>
    <div>This toast will disappear after 3 seconds unless I'm being hovered</div>
  </div>
)

This library is a headless toast library that does not include any styling or animations. You are free to add those yourself or copy an example of how it could be used.
