Usage

U can simply call flash messages from macro added to RedirectResponse. Macro name is created from config macro values and type of flash message:

macro prefix + type + macro suffix

public function store() {
    return redirect('/')->successMsg('Your message');
}

public function store() {
    return back()->successMsg('Your message');
}

You are able to use handy helper method:

public function store() {
    flash('message', 'info');
    return back();
}

or by chaining it with message type:

public function store() {
    flash('message')->success();
    return back();
}

You can also receive class of FlashMessageContract $flash in constructor method of your controller:

public function store(FlashMessageContract $flash) {
    $flash->flashMessage('Hey! Successfully stored resource', 'success');
}

Setup

You can always export config file and views to make your own modifications

exporting config to config/flash-message.php

$ php artisan flash-message:config

exporting view file to resources/views/vendor/flash-message/bootstrap.blade.php

$ php artisan flash-message:views

you can add own types of messages in to config file:

/**
 *  Types are used to name classes in html code of alerts
 */
'types' => ['primary', 'secondary', 'success', 'danger', 'warning', 'info', 'light', 'dark'],

to modify class for each type add own suffix and prefixes in config file

/**
* Class prefix and suffix is added to type of alert to create class name
*/
'class' => [
    'prefix' => 'alert-',
    'suffix' => '',
],
