Hi Artisan,
What's up? Hope's all are good. Today, we'll explore the easiest way to show toast notifications in Laravel. We'll be using the popular JavaScript library called Toastr to achieve this.
You can easily follow this for any laravel version. and for example i am using laravel 10.
Short Introduction of Toast:
Toast notifications are a common feature in web applications that allow you to provide non-intrusive feedback or information to users. They typically appear as small, temporary messages that slide in from the top or bottom of the screen. In Laravel, you can easily implement toast notifications to enhance user experience and provide real-time updates.
Step1 : Install a laravel Project
In first step, If you haven't installed Laravel in your system then you can run bellow command and get fresh Laravel project.
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel-toast
Step2 : Create Master Layout for Toast
Go to Resource/views path and create a simple master layout like below
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title> Management Solution.</title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="../img/favicon.ico">
<!--STYLESHEET-->
@include('layouts.css')
@stack('ex_js')
</head>
<!--TIPS-->
<!--You may remove all ID or Class names which contain "demo-", they are only used for demonstration. -->
<body>
<div id="container" class="effect mainnav-lg navbar-fixed mainnav-fixed">
<!--NAVBAR-->
<!--===================================================-->
@include('layouts.header')
<!--===================================================-->
<!--END NAVBAR-->
<div class="boxed">
@yield('content')
<!--===================================================-->
<!--END CONTENT CONTAINER-->
<!--MAIN NAVIGATION-->
<!--===================================================-->
@if (Auth::user()->is_super == 1)
@include('layouts.nav')
@else
@include('nav')
@endif
<!--===================================================-->
<!--END MAIN NAVIGATION-->
<!--END ASIDE-->
</div>
<!-- FOOTER -->
<!--===================================================-->
<footer id="footer" style=" background-color: #A8A8A8; color: white;">
<!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -->
<div class="hide-fixed pull-right pad-rgt">Currently v2.0</div>
<!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -->
<!-- Remove the class name "show-fixed" and "hide-fixed" to make the content always appears. -->
<!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -->
<p class="pad-lft">© 2023 Technical support by <a href="https://www.techlozi.com/" target="_blank"
class="btn-link">techlozi</a></p>
</footer>
<!--===================================================-->
<!-- END FOOTER -->
<!-- SCROLL TOP BUTTON -->
<!--===================================================-->
<button id="scroll-top" class="btn"><i class="fa fa-chevron-up"></i></button>
<!--===================================================-->
</div>
@include('layouts.js')
@include('layouts.custom_js')
@stack('custom_js')
@yield('scripts')
</body>
</html>
Step3 : Adding CDN Link
In Head Section of Master layout add this below css cdn of Toast
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/toastr.js/latest/toastr.css" rel="stylesheet">
In end Section of Master layout add this below JS cdn of Toast
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/toastr.js/latest/js/toastr.min.js"></script>
Step4 : Toast Message Script Configuration
Adding this branch of code below JS cdn of Toast
<script>
@if (Session::has('message'))
var type = "{{ Session::get('alert-type', 'info') }}"
switch (type) {
case 'info':
toastr.options.timeOut = 10000;
toastr.info("{{ Session::get('message') }}");
var audio = new Audio('audio.mp3');
audio.play();
break;
case 'success':
toastr.options.timeOut = 10000;
toastr.success("{{ Session::get('message') }}");
var audio = new Audio('audio.mp3');
audio.play();
break;
case 'warning':
toastr.options.timeOut = 10000;
toastr.warning("{{ Session::get('message') }}");
var audio = new Audio('audio.mp3');
audio.play();
break;
case 'error':
toastr.options.timeOut = 10000;
toastr.error("{{ Session::get('message') }}");
var audio = new Audio('audio.mp3');
audio.play();
break;
}
@endif
</script>
You can modify style or popup time from here. And you can add more case from here as much you need
Step5 : Handle Message From Controller
First I am creating a controller by using below command
php artisan make:controller BannerController
In this Controller i am writing a function which will update status of a banner and my code is below
public function bannerStatus($bannerId, $status)
{
$banner = Bannner::find($bannerId);
$banner->status = $status;
$banner->save();
$notification = array(
'message' => 'Successfully Done',
'alert-type' => 'success'
);
return redirect()->back()->with($notification);
}
In this branch of code you will find a array name $notification and there is two key here . One is Message or Notification other one is which type of Alert it it. Alert-type must be same as master layout script code. Other wise it will fail to work.
OutPut Example
Here is some out screenshot ot toast.
$notification = array(
'message' => 'Successfully Done',
'alert-type' => 'success'
);
$notification = array(
'message' => 'Error Done',
'alert-type' => 'error'
);
$notification = array(
'message' => 'Waring Done',
'alert-type' => 'warning'
);
$notification = array(
'message' => 'Info Done',
'alert-type' => 'info'
);
