Add to your composer.json following lines
"require": {
"ipunkt/laravel-notifications": "~2.*"
}
Add 'Ipunkt\LaravelNotifications\NotificationsServiceProvider', to providers in app/config/app.php.
Add 'Flash' => 'Ipunkt\LaravelNotifications\NotificationsFacade', to aliases in app/config/app.php.
In controller action use following statement to make a flash notification:
// flashing an info message
Flash::message('Welcome');
// flashing an info message
Flash::info('Welcome');
// flashing a success message
Flash::success('Welcome');
// flashing an error message
Flash::error('Welcome');
// flashing an overlaying message
Flash::overlay('Welcome');
You can also use translatable messages:
Flash::message('app.errors.input_invalid');
In your view or layout template (e.g. a blade template) include the view of your choice:
@include('laravel-notifications::bootstrap-3/flash')
You can publish the views and modify it to your needs (optional):
$> php artisan view:publish ipunkt/laravel-notifications
