toast() API

Call it to create a toast from anywhere, even outside React. Make sure you add the <Toaster/> component to your app first.

Available toast options

You can provide ToastOptions as the second argument. They will overwrite all options received from <Toaster/>.

toast('Hello World', {
  duration: 4000,
  position: 'top-center',

  // Styling
  style: {},
  className: '',

  // Custom Icon
  icon: '👏',

  // Change colors of success/error/loading icon
  iconTheme: {
    primary: '#000',
    secondary: '#fff',
  },

  // Aria
  ariaProps: {
    role: 'status',
    'aria-live': 'polite',
  },
});

Creating a toast

Blank

toast('Hello World');

The most basic variant. It does not have an icon by default, but you can provide one via the options. If you don't want any default styles, use toast.custom() instead.

Success

toast.success('Successfully created!');

Creates a notification with an animated checkmark. It can be themed with the iconTheme option.

Error

toast.error('This is an error!');

Creates a notification with an animated error icon. It can be themed with the iconTheme option.

Warning

toast.warn("I'm warning you!");

Creates a notification with an animated warning icon. It can be themed with the iconTheme option.

Info

toast.info("I'm informing you!");

Creates a notification with an animated info icon. It can be themed with the iconTheme option.

Custom (JSX)

toast.custom(<div>Hello World</div>);

Creates a custom notification with JSX without default styles.

Loading

toast.loading('Waiting...');

This will create a loading notification. Most likely, you want to update it afterwards. For a friendly alternative, check out toast.promise(), which takes care of that automatically.

Promise

This shorthand is useful for mapping a promise to a toast. It will update automatically when the promise resolves or fails.

Simple Usage

const myPromise = fetchData();

toast.promise(myPromise, {
  loading: 'Loading',
  success: 'Got the data',
  error: 'Error when fetching',
});

It's recommend to add min-width to your toast.promise() calls to prevent jumps from different message lengths.

Advanced

You can provide a function to the success/error messages to incorporate the result/error of the promise. The third argument are toastOptions similiar to <Toaster />

toast.promise(
  myPromise,
  {
    loading: 'Loading',
    success: (data) => `Successfully saved ${data.name}`,
    error: (err) => `This just happened: ${err.toString()}`,
  },
  {
    style: {
      minWidth: '250px',
    },
    success: {
      duration: 5000,
      icon: '🔥',
    },
  }
);

Default durations

Every type has its own duration. You can overwrite them duration with the toast options. This can be done per toast options or globally by the <Toaster/>.

Dismiss toast programmatically

You can manually dismiss a notification with toast.dismiss. Be aware that it triggers the exit animation and does not remove the Toast instantly. Toasts will auto-remove after 1 second by default.

Dismiss a single toast

const toastId = toast.loading('Loading...');

// ...

toast.dismiss(toastId);

You can dismiss all toasts at once, by leaving out the toastId.

Dismiss all toasts at once

toast.dismiss();

To remove toasts instantly without any animations, use toast.remove.

Remove toasts instantly

toast.remove(toastId);

// or

toast.remove();

Update an existing toast

Each toast call returns a unique id. Use in the toast options to update the existing toast.

const toastId = toast.loading('Loading...');

// ...

toast.success('This worked', {
  id: toastId,
});

Prevent duplicate toasts

To prevent duplicates of the same kind, you can provide a unique permanent id.

toast.success('Copied to clipboard!', {
  id: 'clipboard',
});

Render JSX custom content

You can provide a React component instead of text. If you don't want any default styles use toast.custom() instead.

toast(
  <span>
    Custom and <b>bold</b>
  </span>,
  {
    icon: <Icon />,
  }
);

You can also supply a function that receives the Toast as an argument, giving you access to all properties. This allows you to access the toast id, which can be used to add a dismiss button.

toast(
  (t) => (
    <span>
      Custom and <b>bold</b>
      <button onClick={() => toast.dismiss(t.id)}>Dismiss</button>
    </span>
  ),
  {
    icon: <Icon />,
  }
);
