ngx-toastr

DEMO: https://scttcper.github.io/ngx-toastr/

Features

• Toast Component Injection without being passed ViewContainerRef
• No use of *ngFor. Fewer dirty checks and higher performance.
• AoT compilation and lazy loading compatible
• Component inheritance for custom toasts
• SystemJS/UMD rollup bundle
• Animations using Angular's Web Animations API (polyfill needed for older devices)
• Output toasts to an optional target directive

Install

npm install ngx-toastr --save

@angular/animations package is a required dependency for the default toast

npm install @angular/animations --save

Don't want to use @angular/animations? See Setup Without Animations.

Setup

step 1: add css

• copy toast css to your project.
• If you are using sass you can import the css.

@import "~ngx-toastr/toastr.css";
// or import a bootstrap 4 alert styled design (SASS ONLY)
// should be after your bootstrap imports, it uses bs4 variables, mixins, functions
@import "~ngx-toastr/toastr-bs4-alert";

// if you'd like to use it without importing bootstrap it requires
@import "~bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "~bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "~bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "~ngx-toastr/toastr-bs4-alert";

• If you are using angular-cli you can add it to your angular-cli.json

"styles": [
  "styles.scss",
  "../node_modules/ngx-toastr/toastr.css"
]

step 2: add ToastrModule to app NgModule

import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';

import { ToastrModule } from 'ngx-toastr';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    CommonModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule, // required animations module
    ToastrModule.forRoot(), // ToastrModule added
  ],
  bootstrap: [App],
  declarations: [App],
})
class MainModule {}

Use

Success:

import { ToastrService } from 'ngx-toastr';
@Component({
  ...
})
export class YourComponent {
  constructor(private toastr: ToastrService) {}

  showSuccess() {
    this.toastr.success('Hello world!', 'Toastr fun!');
  }
}

Options

There are individual options and global options.

Individual Options

Passed to ToastrService.success/error/warning/info/show()

Option	Type	Default	Description
toastComponent	Component	Toast	Angular component that will be used
closeButton	boolean	false	Show close button
timeOut	number	5000	Time to live in milliseconds
extendedTimeOut	number	1000	Time to close after a user hovers over toast
disableTimeOut	boolean	false	Disable both timeOut and extendedTimeOut
easing	string	'ease-in'	Toast component easing
easeTime	string | number	300	Time spent easing
enableHtml	boolean	false	Allow html in message
progressBar	boolean	false	Show progress bar
progressAnimation	'decreasing' | 'increasing'	'decreasing'	Changes the animation of the progress bar.
toastClass	string	'toast'	Class on toast
positionClass	string	'toast-top-right'	Class on toast container
titleClass	string	'toast-title'	Class inside toast on title
messageClass	string	'toast-message'	Class inside toast on message
tapToDismiss	boolean	true	Close on click
onActivateTick	boolean	false	Fires changeDetectorRef.detectChanges() when activated. Helps show toast from asynchronous events outside of Angular's change detection

Setting Individual Options

success, error, info, warning take (message, title, ToastConfig) pass an options object to replace any default option.

this.toastrService.error('everything is broken', 'Major Error', {
  timeOut: 3000,
});

Global Options

All individual options can be overridden in the global options to affect all toasts. In addition, global options include the following options:

Option	Type	Default	Description
maxOpened	number	0	Max toasts opened. Toasts will be queued. 0 is unlimited
autoDismiss	boolean	false	Dismiss current toast when max is reached
iconClasses	object	see below	Classes used on toastr service methods
newestOnTop	boolean	true	New toast placement
preventDuplicates	boolean	false	Block duplicate messages

iconClasses defaults

iconClasses = {
  error: 'toast-error',
  info: 'toast-info',
  success: 'toast-success',
  warning: 'toast-warning',
};

Setting Global Options

Pass values to ToastrModule.forRoot()

// root app NgModule
imports: [
  ToastrModule.forRoot({
    timeOut: 10000,
    positionClass: 'toast-bottom-right',
    preventDuplicates: true,
  }),
],

Toastr Service methods return:

Toastr Service will return undefined if prevent duplicates is enabled

export interface ActiveToast {
  /** Your Toast ID. Use this to close it individually */
  toastId: number;
  /** the message of your toast. Stored to prevent duplicates */
  message: string;
  /** a reference to the component see portal.ts */
  portal: ComponentRef<any>;
  /** a reference to your toast */
  toastRef: ToastRef<any>;
  /** triggered when toast is active */
  onShown: Observable<any>;
  /** triggered when toast is destroyed */
  onHidden: Observable<any>;
  /** triggered on toast click */
  onTap: Observable<any>;
  /** available for your use in custom toast */
  onAction: Observable<any>;
}

Put toasts in your own container

Put toasts in a specific div inside your application. This should probably be somewhere that doesn't get deleted. Add ToastContainerModule to the ngModule where you need the directive available.

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';

import { ToastrModule, ToastContainerModule } from 'ngx-toastr';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,

    ToastrModule.forRoot({ positionClass: 'inline' }),
    ToastContainerModule,
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}

Add a div with toastContainer directive on it.

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

import { ToastContainerDirective, ToastrService } from 'ngx-toastr';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  template: `
  <h1><a (click)="onClick()">Click</a></h1>
  <div toastContainer></div>
`,
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  @ViewChild(ToastContainerDirective) toastContainer: ToastContainerDirective;

  constructor(private toastrService: ToastrService) {}
  ngOnInit() {
    this.toastrService.overlayContainer = this.toastContainer;
  }
  onClick() {
    this.toastrService.success('in div');
  }
}

SystemJS

If you are using SystemJS, you should also adjust your configuration to point to the UMD bundle.

In your SystemJS config file, map needs to tell the System loader where to look for ngx-toastr:

map: {
  'ngx-toastr': 'node_modules/ngx-toastr/bundles/ngx-toastr.umd.min.js',
}

Setup Without Animations

If you do not want to include @angular/animations in your project you can override the default toast component in the global config to use ToastNoAnimation instead of the default one.

In your main module (ex: app.module.ts)

import {
  ToastrModule,
  ToastNoAnimation,
  ToastNoAnimationModule,
} from 'ngx-toastr';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    // ...

    // BrowserAnimationsModule no longer required
    ToastNoAnimationModule,
    ToastrModule.forRoot({
      toastComponent: ToastNoAnimation,
    }),
  ],
  // ...
})
class AppModule {}

That's it! Animations are no longer required.

Using A Custom Toast

Create your toast component extending Toast see the demo's pink toast for an example https://github.com/scttcper/ngx-toastr/blob/master/src/app/pink.toast.ts

import { ToastrModule } from 'ngx-toastr';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    ToastrModule.forRoot({
      toastComponent: YourToastComponent, // added custom toast!
    }),
  ],
  entryComponents: [YourToastComponent], // add!
  bootstrap: [App],
  declarations: [App, YourToastComponent], // add!
})
class AppModule {}

FAQ

1. ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenCheckedError: Expression has changed after it was checked
   When opening a toast inside an angular lifecycle wrap it in setTimeout

ngOnInit() {
    setTimeout(() => this.toastr.success('sup'))
}

2. Change default icons (check, warning sign, etc)
   Overwrite the css background-image https://github.com/scttcper/ngx-toastr/blob/master/src/lib/toastr.css
3. How do I use this in an ErrorHandler? See: scttcper#179
4. How can I translate messages See: scttcper#201
