Type:

Notify has a few types added as default in several categories:

GENERAL:
- info
- warning
- error
- success
- other

BRANDS:
- facebook
- github
- instagram
- linkedin
- paypal
- skype
- twitter
- wikipedia
- youtube

CUSTOM:
- spinner

FONT AWESOME:
- Any icon can be added. Just use icon name as type: 'times', 'ban', 'user' etc.
- If you want to use other icon type (regular, duotone, light or brand) change line 53 in js file.

To add more types add new case 'newCustomType': in javascript switch with custom icon and set custom CSS as .toast[data-type="newCustomType"]{}

Title:

Anything can be added as title but text is recommended. Title CAN be empty.

Message:

Anything can be added as message but text is recommended. Message as well as title CAN be empty.

Autohide:

Notification can hide when you click the close button or after a period of time.

Notify JS Line 60 - autohide - set true or false
Notify JS Line 61 - custom time to hide notification. Currently it's 5000ms.

Animation:

There is no custom animation. Notify uses Bootstrap to show and hide toasts. Feel free to add your own.

Custom toast:

Notify uses custom CSS so it is possible to use Bootstrap. All custom style is based on [data-type] as type should be declared in each notification.

Custom Features:

Notify has only basic options so you can easily customize all the code. You can add custom timing for each notification, images, buttons with links, anything you want. In Notify Line 7 just add more event objects and call them with notify(); function!

CSS Classes

Javascript customize

• Line 25 - close button svg - now it's Font Awesome fas fa-times icon
