Modify Alpine flash notification

Question

I have a question. I have this component that displays a flash notification. By default is set to show a green checkmark, but I wanted to also include code so I can send a "type" and a "message" variables to the component and be able to either show the green success message or a red failed message.

How can I do this?

From my livewire component I saying this:

if($validatedData->fails()){
         $this->notify('Failed creation of extensions');
}else{
        $this->notify('Successfully Imported '.$importCount.' Extensions');
}

Here is kind of how I want to send the info:

if($validatedData->fails()){
         $this->notify('error', 'Failed creation of extensions');
}else{
        $this->notify('success', 'Successfully Imported '.$importCount.' Extensions');
}

On my view, I have a blade component that has the following code:

<div x-data="{
        messages: [],
        remove(message) {
            this.messages.splice(this.messages.indexOf(message), 1)
        },
    }"
    @notify.window="let message = $event.detail; messages.push(message); setTimeout(() => { remove(message) }, 2500)"
    class="fixed inset-0 flex flex-col items-end justify-center px-4 py-6 space-y-4 pointer-events-none sm:p-6 sm:justify-start">
    <template x-for="(message, messageIndex) in messages" :key="messageIndex" hidden>
        <div x-transition:enter="transform ease-out duration-300 transition"

            x-transition:enter-end="translate-y-0 opacity-100 sm:translate-x-0"
            x-transition:leave="transition ease-in duration-100" x-transition:leave-start="opacity-100"

Answer 1

You haven't shown us how you dispatch the notify event, but I assume you're using dispatchBrowserEvent. If you take a look at the docs, you can pass named arguments.

$this->dispatchBrowserEvent('name-updated', ['newName' => $value]);

If you were to do this with yours:

public function notify(string $type, string $message) 
{
    $this->dispatchBrowserEvent('notify', compact('type', 'message'));
}

$this->notify('success', "Successfully Imported {$importCount} Extensions");

Then you can grab it in Alpine using the named detail:

<div x-data="{ // }" @notify.window="let message = $event.detail.message">

Answer 2

I was able to workaround my problem. Here is what I did:

On my livewire component I do something like this:

$this->notify(['error','Oops something went wrong!']);
$this->notify(['success','Operation completed Successfully']);

Sending one message or the other.

Then, on my notification component I made something like this:

<div x-show="message[0] == 'error' ">
            <p x-text="message[1]" class="text-sm font-medium leading-5 text-gray-900"></p>
</div>
<div x-show="message[0] == 'success' ">
            <p x-text="message[1]" class="text-sm font-medium leading-5 text-gray-900"></p>
</div>
                           

So, depending on the first element inside notify, it will show one div or the other.
