Highly opinionated flash message service for Laravel

laravel-unshitty-flash

, _(*1)

Highly opinionated flash message service for Laravel. In contrast to practically all other similar libraries I've seen, this one:, _(*2)

• Supports multiple messages
• Supports multiple identical messages
• Supports flashing immediately, i.e. to the current request
• Let's you configure the session key used
• Forces you to inject the service, no magic facade
• Forces you to operate on the Request object itself

Installation

Install the package:, _(*3)

composer require jalle19/laravel-unshitty-flash

Register the service provider:, _(*4)

'providers' => [
    ...
    Jalle19\Laravel\UnshittyFlash\FlashServiceProvider::class,
    ...
]

Publish the configuration file:, _(*5)

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Jalle19\Laravel\UnshittyFlash\FlashServiceProvider"

Usage

Inject FlashService into the controller you want to create flash messages from, then use it like this:, _(*6)

$this->flashService->success($request, 'Some successful message');
$this->flashService->info($request, 'Some informational message');
$this->flashService->warning($request, 'Some warning');
$this->flashService->danger($request, 'Some dangerous message');

If you need to flash a message to the current request, (e.g. from a middleware that displays a permanent message), pass true as the third parameter:, _(*7)

$this->flashService->info($request, 'Permanently visible message', true);

If the message levels above are not enough for you, you can use an arbitrary level using the message() method:, _(*8)

$this->flashService->message($request, 'Some rant about libraries', 'rant');

To render the flash messages in your views, you can use something like the following snippet:, _(*9)

@foreach (session()->get(config('flash.session_key'), []) as $notification)
