Update config/uifeedback.php

Usage Instructions

This library is build to work by default with Bootstrap 4.

You can add new messages wherever you'd like in you application, like this:

UiFeedback::set(MessageFormat::SUCCESS, 'message');

set method has 3 parameters:

• message format: a string represeinting the class that will be added to the HTML container
• message: a string represeinting the class that will be added to the HTML container
• close button (optional, default: true): whether to display or not the close button for the alert

Message format has the following options, but you can specify there whatever class you'd like and customise the CSS in your app.

Message Format	Value
PRIMARY	primary
SECONDARY	secondary
SUCCESS	success
DANGER	danger
WARNING	warning
INFO	info
LIGHT	light
DARK	dark

Convenience methods

You can set a message using the following pattern for supported message formats:

UiFeedback::success('success message');
UiFeedback::danger('error message');

Display messages

In order to display the messages, you can add the following line in your views:

{!! \TsfCorp\UiFeedback\Facades\UiFeedback::get() !!}

Output messages

If you'd like to display a formatted message right away, you can use the following in your views:

{!! \TsfCorp\UiFeedback\Facades\UiFeedback::format(\TsfCorp\UiFeedback\MessageFormat::SUCCESS, 'message'); !!}

Group messages

If you set multiple messages of the same type (for example SUCCESS), a new alert will be generated for each message. You can change this behaviour by setting the group_errors to true. This way messages of the same type will be displayed in the same alert box.

Session errors

UiFeedback can capture validation errors and display these along with other messages you set. This is the default behaviour. It can be changed in the config: capture_validation_errors

Change output format

In order to change the format for a message you need to publish the view used:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="TsfCorp\UiFeedback\UiFeedbackServiceProvider" --tag=views

Then you can edit the published view in: resources/views/vendor
