React Native Toast

A toast library for react-native, built on react-hot-toast. It supports features such as multiple toasts, keyboard handling, swipe to dismiss, positional toasts, and JS promises. It runs on iOS, android, and web.

Why?

I know what you might be thinking (jeez, another toast library?). Trust me here, this is the last toast library you will need. I built this library to meet my specific app needs and decided to open-source it after realizing that it truly is a top-notch toast library. Just give it a try.

Features

• Multiple toasts, multiple options. Want a toast on the top, bottom, different colors, or different types at the same time? Got it.
• Keyboard handling (both iOS and Android). Move those toasts out of the way and into view when the user opens the keyboard
• Swipe to dismiss
• Positional toasts (top, bottom, top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right)
• Customizable (custom styles, dimensions, duration, and even create your own component to be used in the toast)
• Add support for promises <-- Really! Call toast.promise(my_promise) and watch react-native-toast work its magic, automatically updating the toast with a custom message on success -- or an error message on reject.
• Runs on web
• Support for native modals
• Callbacks for onPress, onShow, and onHide

Getting Started

Installation

yarn add @backpackapp-io/react-native-toast
# or
npm i @backpackapp-io/react-native-toast

Peer Dependencies

Install and link react-native-reanimated, react-native-safe-area-context, and react-native-gesture-handler

yarn add react-native-reanimated react-native-safe-area-context react-native-gesture-handler

Ensure you follow the installation of each package

Using expo?

npx expo install react-native-reanimated react-native-safe-area-context react-native-gesture-handler

Cool, now what?

Wrap your App with <GestureHandlerRootView /> and <SafeAreaProvider /> & add the <Toasts /> component to the root of your app.

Call toast("My Toast Message") whenever you are ready from anywhere in your app.

import { View, StyleSheet, Text } from 'react-native';
import { GestureHandlerRootView } from 'react-native-gesture-handler';
import { SafeAreaProvider } from 'react-native-safe-area-context';
import { toast, Toasts } from '@backpackapp-io/react-native-toast';
import { useEffect } from 'react';

export default function App() {
  useEffect(() => {
    toast('Hello');
  }, []);

  return (
    <SafeAreaProvider>
      <GestureHandlerRootView style={styles.container}>
        <View>{/*The rest of your app*/}</View>
        <Toasts /> {/* <---- Add Here */}
      </GestureHandlerRootView>
    </SafeAreaProvider>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
  },
});

Example

Regular Toast

toast("This is my first toast", {
  duration: 3000,
});

Promise Toast

const sleep = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
  setTimeout(() => {
    if (Math.random() > 0.5) {
      resolve({
        username: 'Nick',
      });
    } else {
      reject('Username is undefined');
    }
  }, 2500);
});

toast.promise(
  sleep,
  {
    loading: 'Loading...',
    success: (data: any) => 'Welcome ' + data.username,
    error: (err) => err.toString(),
  },
  {
    position: ToastPosition.BOTTOM,
  }
);

Loading Toast

const id = toast.loading('I am loading. Dismiss me whenever...');

setTimeout(() => {
  toast.dismiss(id);
}, 3000);

Success Toast

toast.success('Success!', {
  width: 300
});

Error Toast

toast.error('Wow. That Sucked!');
