Installation

``

`javascript
// Create an instance of Notyf
var notyf = new Notyf();

// Display an error notification
notyf.error('You must fill out the form before moving forward');

// Display a success notification
notyf.success('Your changes have been successfully saved!');
`

$3

Notyf ships with an ES6 bundle referenced from the module key of its package.json. This is the file that module bundlers like Webpack will use when using the package. Notyf is exported as a class under the notyf namespace. Typings are also available.

`javascript
import { Notyf } from 'notyf';
import 'notyf/notyf.min.css'; // for React, Vue and Svelte

// Create an instance of Notyf
const notyf = new Notyf();

// Display an error notification
notyf.error('Please fill out the form');
`

API

You can set some options when creating a Notyf instance.

$3

Param | Type | Default | Details
------------ | ------------- | ------------- | -------------
duration | number | 2000 | Number of miliseconds before hiding the notification. Use 0 for infinite duration.
ripple | boolean | true | Whether to show the notification with a ripple effect
position | INotyfPosition | {x:'right',y:'bottom'} | Viewport location where notifications are rendered
dismissible | boolean | false | Whether to allow users to dismiss the notification with a button
types | [INotyfNotificationOptions[]](#inotyfnotificationoptions) | Success and error toasts | Array with individual configurations for each type of toast

$3

Dismiss a specific notification.

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf();
const notification = notyf.success('Address updated');
notyf.dismiss(notification);
`

$3

Dismiss all the active notifications.

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf();
notyf.success('Address updated');
notyf.error('Please fill out the form');
notyf.dismissAll();
`

Events

Every individual notification emits events. You can register listeners using the on method.

$3

Triggers when the notification is clicked

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf();
const notification = notyf.success('Address updated. Click here to continue');
notification.on('click', ({target, event}) => {
// target: the notification being clicked
// event: the mouseevent
window.location.href = '/';
});
`

$3

Triggers when the notification is manually (not programatically) dismissed.

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf();
notyf
.error({
message: 'There has been an error. Dismiss to retry.',
dismissible: true
})
.on('dismiss', ({target, event}) => foobar.retry());
`

Examples

$3

The following example configures Notyf with the following settings:
- 1s duration
- Render notifications in the top-right corner
- New custom notification called 'warning' with a ligature material icon
- Error notification with custom duration, color and dismiss button

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf({
duration: 1000,
position: {
x: 'right',
y: 'top',
},
types: [
{
type: 'warning',
background: 'orange',
icon: {
className: 'material-icons',
tagName: 'i',
text: 'warning'
}
},
{
type: 'error',
background: 'indianred',
duration: 2000,
dismissible: true
}
]
});
`

$3

Register a new toast type and use it by referencing its type name:

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf({
types: [
{
type: 'info',
background: 'blue',
icon: false
}
]
});

notyf.open({
type: 'info',
message: 'Send us an email to get support'
});
`

Warning: Notyf doesn't sanitize the content when rendering your message. To avoid injection attacks, you should either sanitize your HTML messages or make sure you don't render user generated content on the notifications.

$3

The default types are 'success' and 'error'. You can use them simply by passing a message as its argument, or you can pass a settings object in case you want to modify its behaviour.

`javascript
const notyf = new Notyf();

notyf.error({
message: 'Accept the terms before moving forward',
duration: 9000,
icon: false
})
``
