Usage

register component:

//main.js

import Vue from 'vue';
import VuexFlash from 'vuex-flash';

Vue.use(VuexFlash);

register vuex store:

//store.js

import { createFlashStore } from 'vuex-flash';

const store = new Vuex.Store({
  // ...
  plugins: [
    createFlashStore()
  ]
});

Flash data

Using global mixin

Simply put an option mixin: true while registering component, the this.flash method will avaiable in every component

Vue.use(VuexFlash, { mixin: true });

Then in other components:

this.flash({ message: 'some message', variant: 'success' });
this.$router.push('/somepage'); //redirect to /somepage

You can change the method name:

Vue.use(VuexFlash, { mixin: true, method: 'flashMe' });
//now
this.flashMe({ message: 'some message', variant: 'success' });
Using mutation

Instead of global mixin, you can commit mutation from components to set flash message:

methods: {
  //...
  someMethod(){
    //..
    this.$store.commit('FLASH/SET_FLASH', { message: 'some message', variant: 'success' });
  }
}

In mapMutations way:

methods: {
  //...
  someMethod(){
    //..
    this.flash({ message: 'some message', variant: 'success' });
  },

  ...mapMutations({
    flash: 'FLASH/SET_FLASH'
  })
}

Note that the default mutation type is FLASH/SET_FLASH. You can configure it in options.

Display flash

<template>
  <flash-message variant="success"></flash-message>
  //......
</template>

Variant

The Default variant types are:

  • success
  • warning
  • danger
  • info

You can add custom variants.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/animate.css/3.5.2/animate.min.css">

You can set different animation style using transitionIn and transitionOut props in multiple flash messages:

<flash-message variant="success" transitionIn="animated bounceIn" transitionOut="animated bounceOut"></flash-message>
<flash-message variant="danger" transitionIn="animated flipInX" transitionOut="animated flipOutX"></flash-message>
