Javascript flash messages gem?

aris · January 15, 2013, 12:16pm

Does anybody knows a gem for managing flash messages? I would want to
add messages to the flash div in the client. Bootstrap support is a
plus.

Why do you need a gem to manage them? What features would you want the
gem to have?

Why? To lazy to write it

Feature:

RailsFlash.warn(“some message”); // Insert div with bootstrap class and
message

Clearly, you’re too lazy to even search for it.

https://gist.github.com/roberto/3344628

_flash_messages.html.erb

<% flash.each do |type, message| %>
  <div class="alert <%= bootstrap_class_for(type) %> fade in">
    <button class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</button>
    <%= message %>
  </div>
<% end %>

application.html.erb

<%= render partial: "shared/flash_messages", flash: flash %>

application_helper.rb

module ApplicationHelper

  def bootstrap_class_for flash_type
    case flash_type
      when :success
        "alert-success"
      when :error
        "alert-error"
      when :alert
        "alert-block"

Hey,

I would suggest probably wrapping this thing up with some javascript
assets
to give you access to an object you can call to say “Give me them
messages”.
Think about using an engine.

Thanks for the pointer Dheeraj. However, this is not what I was asking
for. We already have this in our server-side views. What I am looking
for is a javascript for creating them in client-side.

I ended up creating the gem for lazy people like me:
