Custom Response.flash

[LoveWeb2py]

Hello,

I have created my own response.flash

Here is the code:

def notification(message, mtype):
    a = "<script>\n"
    a += "$(\"notify\").ready(function() {\n"
    a += "toastr.options.timeOut = 2000; // 1.5s\n"
    a += "toastr.{mtype}('{message}');\n".format(mtype=mtype, message=message)
    a += "$('#linkButton').click(function() {\n"
    a += "toastr.success('Click Button');\n"
    a += "});\n"
    a += "});\n"
    a += "</script>"
    a = XML(a)
    return a

The problem is when I call it using auth.messages.logged_in = notification('Signed In', 'success') I get two pop ups of the message.

I suspect this has something to do with the way .flash is defined in web2py.js because when I comment out
        main_hook: function () {
        /*var flash = $('.w2p_flash');*/
        /*flash.hide();*/
        /*if (flash.html()) web2py.flash(flash.html());*/
        web2py.ajax_init(document);
        web2py.event_handlers();
        web2py.a_handlers();
        web2py.form_handlers();
    }
};

It works fine! Is this a bug or is something wrong with the way I'm creating a custom response.flash

Why doing that? You can't just style differently the actual web2py flash popup in the web2py.css file to achieve what you want? I mean flash message is flash message...

Hi Richard,

I'm trying to use this: https://github.com/CodeSeven/toastr

and it's working okay right now, but I feel like there has to be a better way.

If I just use response.flash = 'message' and change the css I'd have to change the javascript as well (I think) and I also wouldn't be able to specify if the type: "info", "success", "warning", etc...

Are you saying you are seeing the standard web2py flash in addition to your own? If so, that means you probably left the flash message in layout.html -- just remove it (it is a div with class .w2p_flash, as implied by the above code).
