# Toast 🏷️

Toasts are used to provide feedback to the user after an important action has been performed.
Toasts can also be used to provide feedback to the user when a system event occurs, such as when a file is saved.

## Design

- [Toast - Figma Design](https://www.figma.com/file/jubmQL9Z8V7881ayUD95ps/Blade-DSL?type=design&node-id=7665-27414&mode=design&t=UNInCMmP1iFCu9je-0)

## Features

- Stackable
- Auto dismissable / manual dismissable
- `informational` or `promotional` types

## Anatomy

### Informational Toast

### Promotional Toast

## Simple Usage

The blade toasts will use [react-hot-toast](https://react-hot-toast.com/) under the hood with a similar imperative API to show, dismiss and create new toasts without needing for consumer to handle positional or stacking logic.

```jsx
import { BladeProvider, ToastContainer, useToast } from "@razorpay/blade/components"

const HomePage = () => {
const toast = useToast();

return (
<Button
onClick={() => {
toast.show({
type: 'informational',
color: 'success',
content: 'Payment Successful',
leading: <DollarIcon />,
autoDismiss: true,
onDismissButtonClick: () => {
console.log('Toast dismissed');
},
action: {
text: 'View',
onClick: () => {
console.log('Toast action clicked');
}
}
});
}}
>
Show Toast
</Button>
);
};

const App = () => {
return (
<BladeProvider>
<ToastContainer position="bottom-left" />
<HomePage />
</BladeProvider>
)
}
```

## Props

```ts
type ToastProps = {
/**
* @default `informational`
*/
type?: 'informational' | 'promotional';

/**
* @default `neutral`
*/
color?: 'neutral' | 'positive' | 'negative' | 'warning' | 'information'

/**
* Content of the toast
*/
content: React.ReactNode;

/**
* Can be used to render an icon or asset
*/
leading?: React.ReactElement;

/**
* If true, the toast will be dismissed after few seconds
*
* @default true - for informational toast
* @default false - for promotional toast
*/
autoDismiss?: boolean;

/**
* Duration after which the toast will be dismissed (in ms)
*
* Duration for promotional toast is 8s
* Duration for informational toast is 4s
*/
duration?: 8000 | 4000;

/**
* Called when the toast is dismissed or duration runs out
*/
onDismissButtonClick?: () => void;

/**
* Primary action of toast
*/
action?: {
text: string;
onClick?: (e: Event) => void;
isLoading? boolean;
}

/**
* Forwarded to react-hot-toast
*
* This can be used to programatically update toasts by providing an id
*/
toastId?: string;
}
```
### useToast
The useToast hook will return few modified methods from [react-hot-toast](https://react-hot-toast.com/docs/toast):
```ts
type useToastReturnType = {
/**
* @returns id of the toast
*/
show: (toast: Toast) => string;

/**
* id of the toast to be dismissed
*
* if id is not provided, all the toasts will be dismissed
*/
dismiss: (toastId?: string) => void;
}
```
## Examples
#### Removing a toast
react-hot-toast provides this functionality, for more info see [react-hot-toast docs](https://react-hot-toast.com/docs/toast#dismiss-toast-programmatically)
```jsx
import { BladeProvider, ToastContainer, useToast } from "@razorpay/blade/components"

const Example = () => {
const toastId = React.useRef(null);
const toast = useToast();

return (
<Box>
<Button
onClick={() => {
toastId.current = toast.show({
color: 'success',
content: 'Payment Successful',
});
}}
>
Show Toast
</Button>
<Button onClick={() => toast.dismiss(toastId.current)}>Dismiss Toast</Button>
</Box>
);
};
```

### Promotional Toast

```jsx
import { BladeProvider, ToastContainer, useToast } from "@razorpay/blade/components"

const Example = () => {
const toast = useToast();

return (
<Button
onClick={() => {
toast.show({
type: 'promotional',
content: (
<Box>
<Heading>Payment Successful</Heading>
<Text>Amount:100</Text>
</Box>
),
leading: <DollarIcon />,
action: {
text: 'Okay'
}
});
}}
>
Do payment
</Button>
);
};
```

## Motion

You can checkout the toast motion [here](https://www.figma.com/proto/jubmQL9Z8V7881ayUD95ps/Blade-DSL?type=design&node-id=75848-1063056&t=QZkki0ZrlcG4sKzw-0&scaling=min-zoom&page-id=7665%3A27414).

## Accessibility

- Toast components will follow the WAI-ARIA guidelines for [alert](https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/alert/examples/alert/). For error toast we will use the `alert` role and for informational toast we will use the `status` role.

## Open Questions

- Q. What should be the default duration for auto dismissable toasts?
- A. 4s for informational toasts and 8s for promotional toasts

- Q. Should we call it `onDismissButtonClick` or `onDismiss`?

- Q. Should the dismiss handler be called even when the toast is auto dismissed? Or should we have different handlers for auto dismiss and manual dismiss? (eg: `onAutoDismiss` `onDismissButtonClick`)
- A. We will call it `onDismissButtonClick` and it will only be called when the user clicks on the dismiss button.

- Q. In the `useToast` hook should we call the returned functions `showToast`/`dismissToast` or `show`/`dismiss`?

If we call them `show` & `dismiss` consumer can do this and might look more cleaner:

```jsx
const App = () => {
const toast = useToast();

toast.show(); // <-- they will also get auto complete when writing `toast.`
toast.dismiss();
}
```
- A. We will call them `show` & `dismiss`

- Q. In design we are restricting the Toast position to be bottom-left. In that case should we also do the same or should we allow all the positions & set the default to bottom-left? (If we allow all the positions, we will have to add some additional logic to handle stacking/animation of toasts coming from top instead of bottom)
- A. We will only allow bottom-left position for now.

- Q. Should we keep the ToastContainer inside BladeProvider?

The problem is if we keep it inside BladeProvider, given our new light/dark mode setup where consumers will need to nest BladeProviders it would cause ToastContainer to render [multiple times](https://github.com/razorpay/blade/pull/1990#discussion_r1470796627).
- A. We will expose ToastContainer, so that users can render it at the root level of their app regardless of where BladeProvider is.
