#Notification Bundle
This bundle provides methods for creating flash notifications and instant notifications that will rendered with javascript to the user. Symfony2 already has a flashBag for flash messages, this bundle builds from there to add customisable javascript notifications using humane.js.
##Install instructions
The simplest way to install this bundle is to use composer.
Add the notification bundle as a requirement to composer.json:
{ "require":{ "lrotherfield/notification-bundle": "dev-master" }
Update the dependecies using composer:
$ php composer.phar update
Add the notification bundle to the AppKernal.php file:
class AppKernel extends Kernel { public function registerBundles() { $bundles = array( //... new LRotherfield\Bundle\NotificationBundle\LRotherfieldNotificationBundle(),
This bundle uses a js and css file and so needs to be added to the assetic configuration in config.yml:
# Assetic Configuration assetic: #... bundles: [LRotherfieldNotificationBundle]
Thats it, all installed.
##Simple usage
There are two main sets of functionality, adding notifications and rendering notifications.
###Adding notifications
To add a notification, use the add()
method
// any class with access to the service container $this->container->get('lrotherfield.notify')->add("foo", array("message" => "bar"));
###Render notifications
Humane js and css files are required in the head tag for this class to function. Before the closing head tag, run the twig function notify_resources()
:
{{ notify_resources() }} </head>
There are two twig functions for rendering notifications, they should be called just before the closing body tag:
{{ notify_all() }} {# renders all notifications #} {{ notify_one("foo") }} {# renders all "foo" notifications like the one added in the above example #} </body>
An argument can be given in notify_all() and notify_one() to specify the id of an element to append the message to as a child:
<div id="baz"></div> {{ notify_all("baz") }} {# or #} {{ notify_one("foo", "baz") }}
###Adding options
There are a number of options available when using the add() method to add a notification:
//Defaults listed below array( "message" => "", // The message to render, will be wrapped in p tags "title" => "", // The title to render, will be wrapped in h2 tags "class" => "notice", // css class to add to the notification div "type" => "flash", // flash or instant, instant lasts until a page refresh, flash lasts for one redirect "lifetime" => "5000", // Lifetime of the notification in ms "click_to_close" => false, //true or false, true will make notification disappear only on click, false will use lifetime "sticky" => false // Makes the notification sticky and not disappear )
