RedHat Cloud Services frontend components - notifications

This package has portal component that shows toast notifications based on PF4 alert component.

Installation

With yarn

yarn add @redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-notifications

This package is dependent on @redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-utilities it will automatically install it trough direct dependencies.

Treeshaking

In order not to increase your bundle size you you should either import components trough direct imports or use babel plugin to change relative imports to direct imports. You can mix both direct imports and babel plugin, it's just convenient to use the babel plugin so you don't have to change all of your imports.

Direct imports

You can try esm or cjs whichever fits you more, generally ems modules should yield less code, but is considered bleading edge and could break your build, cjs (refers to commonjs) will work out of the box (it adds about 1 or 2 KB of code to each build). For instance addNotification can be imported as:

import { addNotification } from '@redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-notifications/esm/actions';

or

import { addNotification } from '@redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-notifications/cjs/actions';

If it breaks your build for some reason, you can always fallback to default umd index file, but this will most probably bloat your build and should be used as last resort.

import { addNotification } from '@redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-notifications';

Babel plugins

There are 2 plugins that can be used to change relative imports to direct imports

• babel-plugin-import - easy setup, however not that extensible
• transform-imports - harder to setup, but allows custom rules

Since our components require a bit more setting up, we are recommending using transform-imports.

Change your babel config to be javascript config babel.config.js so you can use JS functions to properly transform your imports

module.exports = {
    presets: [
        // your presets go here
    ],
    plugins: [
        // your plugins
        [
            'transform-imports',
            {
              '@redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-notifications': {
                transform: (importName) =>
                  `@redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-notifications/cjs/${importName}`,
                preventFullImport: true
              }
            },
            'frontend-notifications'
        ]
        // other plugins, for instance PF transform imports and such as well
    ]
};

As with direct imports you can choose from esm and cjs.
