Notification

Create toggleable notifications that fade out automatically.

Usage

The notification will not fade out but remain visible when you hover the message until you stop hovering. You can also close the notification by clicking it. To show notifications, the component provides a simple JavaScript API. The following code snippet gets you started.

JavaScript

UIkit.notification({
    message: 'my-message!',
    status: 'primary',
    pos: 'top-right',
    timeout: 5000
});

// Shortcuts
UIkit.notification('My message');
UIkit.notification('My message', status);
UIkit.notification('My message', { /* options */ });
<button class="demo uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Notification message'})">Click me</button>

HTML message

You can use HTML inside your notification message, like an icon from the Icon component.

UIkit.notification("<span uk-icon='icon: check'></span> Message");
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default demo" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: '<span uk-icon=\'icon: check\'></span> Message with an icon'})">With icon</button>

Position

Add one of the following parameters to adjust the notification's position to different corners.

UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'top-right'})
Position Code
top-left UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'top-left'})
top-center UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'top-center'})
top-right UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'top-right'})
bottom-left UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'bottom-left'})
bottom-center UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'bottom-center'})
bottom-right UIkit.notification("…", {pos: 'bottom-right'})

<p uk-margin>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Top Left…', pos: 'top-left'})">Top Left</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Top Center…', pos: 'top-center'})">Top Center</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Top Right…', pos: 'top-right'})">Top Right</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Bottom Left…', pos: 'bottom-left'})">Bottom Left</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Bottom Center…', pos: 'bottom-center'})">Bottom Center</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Bottom Right…', pos: 'bottom-right'})">Bottom Right</button>
</p>

Style

A notification can be styled by adding a status to the message to indicate a primary, success, warning or danger status.

UIkit.notification("…", {status: 'primary'})
Style Code
primary UIkit.notification("…", {status:'primary'})
success UIkit.notification("…", {status:'success'})
warning UIkit.notification("…", {status:'warning'})
danger UIkit.notification("…", {status:'danger'})

<p uk-margin>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default demo" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Primary message…', status: 'primary'})">Primary</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default demo" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Success message…', status: 'success'})">Success</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default demo" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Warning message…', status: 'warning'})">Warning</button>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default demo" type="button" onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Danger message…', status: 'danger'})">Danger</button>
</p>

Close all

You can close all open notifications by calling UIkit.notification.closeAll().

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default close" onclick="UIkit.notification.closeAll()">Close All</button>
