# Vue.js notifications



## Demo

- http://vue-notification.yev.io/

## Setup

```bash
npm install --save vue-notification
```

Add dependencies to your `main.js`:

```javascript
import Vue from 'vue'
import Notifications from 'vue-notification'

/*
or for SSR:
import Notifications from 'vue-notification/dist/ssr.js'
*/

Vue.use(Notifications)
```

Add the global component to your `App.vue`:

```vue

```

Trigger notifications from your `.vue` files:

```javascript
// simple
this.$notify('Hello user!')

// using options
this.$notify({
title: 'Important message',
text: 'Hello user!'
});
```

Or trigger notifications from other files, for example, your router:

```javascript
import Vue from 'vue'

Vue.notify({
title: 'Authorization',
text: 'You have been logged in!'
})
```

## Usage

### Nuxt.js

#### nuxt.config.js

```js
plugins: [
{ src: '~/plugins/notifications-ssr', ssr: true },
{ src: '~/plugins/notifications-client', ssr: false }
]
```

#### notifications-ssr.js

```js
import Notifications from 'vue-notification/dist/ssr.js';
import Vue from 'vue';

Vue.use(Notifications);
```

#### notifications-client.js

```js
import Notifications from 'vue-notification';
import Vue from 'vue';

Vue.use(Notifications);
```

### Component props

The majority of settings for the Notifications component are configured using props:

```vue

```

Note that all props are optional.

| Name | Type | Default | Description |
| ---------------- | ------------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| position | String/Array | 'top right' | Part of the screen where notifications will pop out |
| width | Number/String | 300 | Width of notification holder, can be `%`, `px` string or number.
Valid values: '100%', '200px', 200 |
| classes | String/Array | 'vue-notification' | List of classes that will be applied to notification element |
| group | String | null | Name of the notification holder, if specified |
| duration | Number | 3000 | Time (in ms) to keep the notification on screen (if **negative** - notification will stay **forever** or until clicked) |
| speed | Number | 300 | Time (in ms) to show / hide notifications |
| animation-type | String | 'css' | Type of animation, currently supported types are `css` and `velocity` |
| animation-name | String | null | Animation name required for `css` animation |
| animation | Object | Custom | Animation configuration for [Velocity](#Animation]) animation |
| max | Number | Infinity | Maximum number of notifications that can be shown in notification holder |
| reverse | Boolean | false | Show notifications in reverse order |
| ignoreDuplicates | Boolean | false | Ignore repeated instances of the same notification |
| closeOnClick | Boolean | true | Close notification when clicked |

### API

Notifications are triggered via the API:

```javascript
this.$notify({
// (optional)
// Name of the notification holder
group: 'foo',

// (optional)
// Title (will be wrapped in div.notification-title)
title: 'This is the title',

// Content (will be wrapped in div.notification-content)
text: 'This is some content',

// (optional)
// Class that will be assigned to the notification
type: 'warn',

// (optional, override)
// Time (in ms) to keep the notification on screen
duration: 10000,

// (optional, override)
// Time (in ms) to show / hide notifications
speed: 1000,

// (optional)
// Data object that can be used in your template
data: {}
})
```

To remove notifications, include the `clean: true` parameter.

```javascript
this.$notify({
group: 'foo', // clean only the foo group
clean: true
})
```

### Plugin Options

Configure the plugin itself using an additional options object:

```js
Vue.use(notifications, { name: 'alert' })
```

All options are optional:

| Name | Type | Default | Description |
| ------------- | ------ | ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| name | String | notify | Defines the instance name. It's prefixed with the dollar sign. E.g. `$notify` |
| componentName | String | notifications | The component's name |

> **Note**: setting `componentName` can cause issues when using SSR.

## Features

### Position

Position the component on the screen using the `position` prop:

```vue

```

It requires a `string` with **two keywords** for vertical and horizontal postion.

Format: `" "`.

- Horizontal options: `left`, `center`, `right`
- Vertical options: `top`, `bottom`

Default is `"top right"`.

### Width

Width can be set using a `number` or `string` with optional `%` or `px` extensions:

```vue

```

### Type

Set the `type` of a notification (**warn**, **error**, **success**, etc) by adding a `type` property to the call:

```js
this.$notify({ type: 'success', text: 'The operation completed' })
```

This will add the `type` (i.e. "success") as a CSS class name to the `.vue-notification` element.

See the [Styling](#styling) section for how to hook onto the class and style the popup.

### Groups

For different classes of notifications, i.e...

- authentication errors (top center)
- app notifications (bottom-right)

...specify the `group` attribute:

```vue

```

Trigger a notification for a specific group by specifying it in the API call:

```javascript
this.$notify({ group: 'auth', text: 'Wrong password, please try again' })
```

## Customisation

### Styling

Vue Notifications comes with default styling, but it's easy to replace with your own.

Specify one or more class hooks via the `classes` prop on the global component:

```vue

```

This will add the supplied class/classes to individual notification elements:

```html



Info

You have been logged in



```

Then include custom css rules to style the notifications:

```scss
// style of the notification itself
.my-notification {
...

// style for title line
.notification-title {
...
}

// style for content
.notification-content {
...
}

// additional styling hook when using`type` parameter, i.e. this.$notify({ type: 'success', message: 'Yay!' })
&.success { ... }
&.info { ... }
&.error { ... }
}
```

Note that the default rules are:

```scss
.vue-notification {
// styling
margin: 0 5px 5px;
padding: 10px;
font-size: 12px;
color: #ffffff;

// default (blue)
background: #44A4FC;
border-left: 5px solid #187FE7;

// types (green, amber, red)
&.success {
background: #68CD86;
border-left-color: #42A85F;
}

&.warn {
background: #ffb648;
border-left-color: #f48a06;
}

&.error {
background: #E54D42;
border-left-color: #B82E24;
}
}
```

### Content

To completely replace notification content, use Vue's slots system:

```vue




{{ item.title }}







```
The `props` object has the following members:

| Name | Type | Description |
| ----- | -------- | ------------------------------------ |
| item | Object | Notification object |
| close | Function | A function to close the notification |

### Animation

Vue Notification can use the [Velocity](https://github.com/julianshapiro/velocity) library to power the animations using JavaScript.

To use, manually install `velocity-animate` & pass the library to the `vue-notification` plugin (the reason for doing that is to reduce the size of this plugin).

In your `main.js`:

```javascript
import Vue from 'vue'
import Notifications from 'vue-notification'
import velocity from 'velocity-animate'

Vue.use(Notifications, { velocity })
```

In the template, set the `animation-type` prop:

```vue

```

The default configuration is:

```js
{
enter: { opacity: [1, 0] },
leave: { opacity: [0, 1] }
}
```

To assign a custom animation, use the `animation` prop:

```vue

```

Note that `enter` and `leave` can be an `object` or a `function` that returns an `object`:

```javascript
computed: {
animation () {
return {
/**
* Animation function
*
* Runs before animating, so you can take the initial height, width, color, etc
* @param {HTMLElement} element The notification element
*/
enter (element) {
let height = element.clientHeight
return {
// animates from 0px to "height"
height: [height, 0],

// animates from 0 to random opacity (in range between 0.5 and 1)
opacity: [Math.random() * 0.5 + 0.5, 0]
}
},
leave: {
height: 0,
opacity: 0
}
}
}
}
```

### Programatic closing

```
const id = Date.now() // This can be any unique number

Vue.notify({
id,
text: 'This message will be removed immediately'
});

Vue.notify.close(id);
```
