CakePHP API Flash

This plugin consists of only a component to be used in your controllers in order to set flash message in the serialized response.

Usage

Load the component in the desired controller:

# the initialize method

$this->loadComponent('ApiFlash');

Then just call the ApiFlashComponent#set(key, message) method from any controller method:

$this->ApiFlash->set('success', 'You were successfully authenticated!')

It will simply add an array to the flash key in the response body:

[
	'flash' => [
		'success' => 'You were successfully authenticated!'
	]
]

Config

You can configure the key which the array will be set in the response. Simply add a key index to the config of loadComponent call:

# the intialize method

$this->loadComponent('ApiFlash', ['key' => 'feedback']);
