How can I override a method in Toaster class

[thaqebon]

Hi,

I want to make a bit modification on "setDefaultConfig" and "middleware" methods in Toaster class.
How I can do that and where should I place my modification without touch the original files.

Sorry to post this here if it not related to issues.
Thanks

Also I whould like to shere my modification, It may help someone.

In setDefaultConfig method I added 'showClass' & 'hideClass', So I can set a default animation.
In middleware method, It unset 'heightAuto', 'width', 'padding' without any way to reset, So I remove them.

Hey @o4itea ,

It's very simple just like we override any parent class function in derived class.

You can try following :

Create a child class extending Toaster class and override the  "setDefaultConfig" and "middleware" methods.

use RealRashid\SweetAlert;

Class ChildClass extends Toaster {

    public function setDefaultConfig () {
       // Write your logic here
    }

    public function middleware () {
       // Write your logic here
    }

}

Hope this will help.

Thank Bro,
Where should I put the child class how to tell laravel to override parent class

Create the Service Provider for overridden class.
First parameter of bind function must be same as facade accessor of sweet-alert Facade Check Here. Register this facade in config/app.php after the service provider of sweet-alert package. :

use RealRashid\SweetAlert;
use app\ChildClass;
Class ChildClassServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
    public function register(){
        $this->app->bind('alert', function(){
           return new ChildClass($this->app['config']);
        })
    }
}

Complete Code:

// ChildClass

use RealRashid\SweetAlert;

Class ChildClass extends Toaster {

    public function setDefaultConfig () {
       // Write your logic here
    }

    public function middleware () {
       // Write your logic here
    }

}

// ServiceProvider

use RealRashid\SweetAlert;
use app\ChildClass;
Class ChildClassServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
    public function register(){
        $this->app->bind('alert', function(){
           return new ChildClass($this->app['config']);
        })
    }
}

Thanks Rashid, You've lighted the way in front of me.

The following code works

// ServiceProvider

use App\ChildClass;
Class ChildClassServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
    public function register(){
        $this->app->bind('alert', ChildClass::class)
    }
}

or replace the facade with the targeted class

// ServiceProvider

use RealRashid\SweetAlert\Toaster;
use App\ChildClass;
Class ChildClassServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
    public function register(){
        $this->app->bind(Toaster::class, ChildClass::class)
    }
}
