Installation

``bash
$ npm install react-alert
`

Usage

To use it, you have to import the AlertContainer component, like this:

`js
import React, {Component} from 'react'
import AlertContainer from 'react-alert'

export default class App extends Component {
alertOptions = {
offset: 14,
position: 'bottom left',
theme: 'dark',
time: 5000,
transition: 'scale'
}

showAlert = () => {
this.msg.show('Some text or component', {
time: 2000,
type: 'success',
icon:
})
}

render () {
return (



)
}
}
`

Api

Once you have the reference of the AlertContainer you can call the following methods:

`js
// show an alert
this.msg.show('Some message or component')
// show an info alert
this.msg.info('Some info message or component')
// show a success alert
this.msg.success('Some success message or component')
// show an error alert
this.msg.error('Some error message or component')
// removes all alerts from the page
this.msg.removeAll()
`


Options

The AlertContainer component accepts the following props:

`js
{
// defaults
offset: 14, // the offset of the alert from the page border, can be any number
position: 'bottom left', // the position of the alert, can be [bottom left, bottom right, top left, top right]
theme: 'dark', // the color theme of the alert, can be [dark, light]
time: 5000, // the time in miliseconds to the alert close itself, use 0 to prevent auto close (apply to all alerts)
transition: 'scale' // the transition animation, can be [scale, fade]
}
`

When you call show, info, success and error method, you can include the following options as a second parameter:

`js
{
time: 0, // the time in miliseconds to the alert close itself, use 0 to prevent auto close (apply to this alert only), default is 5000
icon: , // the icon to show in the alert, if none is given the default of each type will be showed
onClose: () => {} // the function called when message is closed
}
`

When you call the show method, you can additionally include the info option:

`js
{
type: 'info' // the alert type, can be [info, success, error], default is info
}
`

Using React Components as alert content

You can also use a React Component to show an alert message, like this:

`js
// show an alert with a React Component as content
this.msg.show()
