PNotify

I just quickly wrote a widget for the JQuery plugin Pines Notify - Notifications for Bootstrap or jQuery UI.

Check the Pines Notify Website for examples and dokumentation.

Also have a look at this extension: Pines Tags

##Requirements

Yii 1.1 or above

##Usage Just extract the files in your extensions directory.

There are three ways to use this widget: the very simple way, the normal way, and the flash messages way.

The very simple way

This will create a very simple notification without a title and any options. Just submit a "message". Any given options will be ignored.

$this->widget('application.extensions.PNotify.PNotify',array( 
    'message'=>'I am really a very simple notification')
);

Result:

$.pnotify("I am really a very simple notification");

The normal way

Here we go: DONT use the key "message", fill the notification with options.

$this->widget('application.extensions.PNotify.PNotify',array(
    'options'=>array(
        'title'=>'You did it!',
        'text'=>'This notification is awesome! Awesome like you!',
        'type'=>'success',
        'closer'=>false,
        'hide'=>false))
);

Result:

$.pnotify({'title':'You did it!','text':'This notification is awesome! Awesome like you!','type':'success','closer':false,'hide':false});

Using with Flash messages

  $this->widget('application.extensions.PNotify.PNotify',
          array(
              'flash_messages_only' => true,
          )
  );

And then when you do:

Yii::app()->user->setFlash('success', array('title' => 'Login Successful!', 'text' => 'You successfully logged in. Enjoy!'));

You get the nice message because of:

$.pnotify({'type':'success','title':'Login Successful!','text':'You successfully logged in. Enjoy!'});

Options

You can use ALL the options Pines Notify offers.

$_default_options=array(
  		'title'=>false,
			'title_escape'=>false,
			'text'=>false,
			'text_escape'=>false,
			'styling'=>"bootstrap",
			'addclass'=>"",
			'cornerclass'=>"",

			'icon'=>true,
			'animation'=>"fade",
			'animate_speed'=>"slow",
			'opacity'=>1,
			'shadow'=>true,
			'closer'=>true,
			'closer_hover'=>true,
			'sticker'=>true,
			'sticker_hover'=>true,
			'hide'=>true,
			'delay'=>8000,
			'mouse_reset'=>true,
			'remove'=>true,
			'insert_brs'=>true,
			'stack'=>array(
				'dir1'=>'down',

				'spacing1'=>25,
				'spacing2'=>25,
				),
			);
