toastr.remove()
toastr.clear()
toastr.success('We do have the Kapua suite available.', 'Turtle Bay Resort', {timeOut: 5000})
Escape HTML characters
In case you want to escape HTML characters in title and message
toastr.options.escapeHtml = true;
Close Button
Optionally enable a close button
toastr.options.closeButton = true;
Optionally override the close button's HTML.
toastr.options.closeHtml = '<button><i class="icon-off"></i></button>';
You can also override the CSS/LESS for #toast-container .toast-close-button
Optionally override the hide animation when the close button is clicked (falls back to hide configuration).
toastr.options.closeMethod = 'fadeOut';
toastr.options.closeDuration = 300;
toastr.options.closeEasing = 'swing';
Display Sequence
Show newest toast at bottom (top is default)
toastr.options.newestOnTop = false;
Callbacks
toastr.options.onShown = function() { console.log('hello'); }
toastr.options.onHidden = function() { console.log('goodbye'); }
toastr.options.onclick = function() { console.log('clicked'); }
toastr.options.onCloseClick = function() { console.log('close button clicked'); }
Animation Options
Toastr will supply default animations, so you do not have to provide any of these settings. However you have the option to override the animations if you like.
Easings
Optionally override the animation easing to show or hide the toasts. Default is swing. swing and linear are built into jQuery.
toastr.options.showEasing = 'swing';
toastr.options.hideEasing = 'linear';
toastr.options.closeEasing = 'linear';
Using the jQuery Easing plugin (http://www.gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/)
toastr.options.showEasing = 'easeOutBounce';
toastr.options.hideEasing = 'easeInBack';
toastr.options.closeEasing = 'easeInBack';
Animation Method
Use the jQuery show/hide method of your choice. These default to fadeIn/fadeOut. The methods fadeIn/fadeOut, slideDown/slideUp, and show/hide are built into jQuery.
toastr.options.showMethod = 'slideDown';
toastr.options.hideMethod = 'slideUp';
toastr.options.closeMethod = 'slideUp';
Prevent Duplicates
Rather than having identical toasts stack, set the preventDuplicates property to true. Duplicates are matched to the previous toast based on their message content.
toastr.options.preventDuplicates = true;
Timeouts
Control how toastr interacts with users by setting timeouts appropriately. Timeouts can be disabled by setting them to 0.
toastr.options.timeOut = 30;
toastr.options.extendedTimeOut = 60;
Progress Bar
Visually indicate how long before a toast expires.
toastr.options.progressBar = true;
rtl
Flip the toastr to be displayed properly for right-to-left languages.
toastr.options.rtl = true;
