README

A lightweight PHP library to handle flash messages using SweetAlert2 toasts. Originally built for the ViperPHP framework, but compatible with any PHP project.

🚀 Installation

Install the package via Composer:

composer require languaojs/viper-flasher

If you are using ViperPHP, run the command above in the root folder of your project.

📋 Requirements

This library requires jQuery and SweetAlert2 to be present in your HTML template. Add these CDNs to your header or footer:

<!-- jQuery -->
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.7.1.min.js"></script>
<!-- SweetAlert2 -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/sweetalert2@11"></script>

If you are using ViperPHP, you will configure these assets in your controller (see ViperPHP documentation in my GitHub repo).

🛠 Usage

1. Initialize Session

Ensure that session_start() is called at the beginning of your application. With ViperPHP, you do not need to do this.

2. Set a Flash Message

Use the setFlash method in your Controller or logic:

use Viper\Flasher\Flasher;

// Parameters: type (success, error, info, warning), message
Flasher::setFlash('success', 'Data saved successfully!');

3. Fire the Flash Message

Call the flash() method in your view (ideally at the bottom of the body):

<?php 
use Viper\Flasher\Flasher;

Flasher::flash(); 
?>

🎨 Toast Configuration

By default, this library uses a SweetAlert2 Toast with the following settings:

• Position: Top-end
• Timer: 5000ms
• Progress Bar: Enabled
• Confirm Button: Disabled
