React Snackbars Stack

React Snackbars Stack to show multiple snackbars as queue/stack

Description

React Snackbars Stack is a flexible and easy-to-use library for displaying snackbars in your React applications. It provides a simple API to show notifications with different severities and customizable options. Whether you need to show a single snackbar or manage a stack of multiple snackbars, this library has you covered.

Installation

Install the package using npm or yarn:

npm install react-snackbars-stack
# or
yarn add react-snackbars-stack

Usage

Option 1: Direct Use

Import the SnackbarProvider and wrap your application with it. Use the enqueueSnackbar method to show snackbars.

🚀 Important Note: You don't need to wrap your entire application with the SnackbarProvider context. You can use it directly in any component by placing it inside the render method, such as the return statement in a function component or the render method in a class component.

import React from 'react';
import { SnackbarProvider, enqueueSnackbar } from 'react-snackbars-stack';

function App() {
  const handleClick = () => {
    enqueueSnackbar('This is a snackbar message!');
    // OR
    enqueueSnackbar(
      'This is a snackbar message with applied options!', 
      {
        severity:'success', // inof, success, warning, error
        preventDuplicate:true,
        duration:1500
      }
    );
  };

  return (
    <>
      <SnackbarProvider /> {/* Check API for options */}
      <button onClick={handleClick}>Show Snackbar</button>
    </>
  );
}

export default App;

Option 2: Using Hook

Wrap your root app or a specific parent app with the SnackbarProvider context. Import the hook in a child component to use the method to show snackbars.

import React from 'react';
import { SnackbarProvider, useSnackbar } from 'react-snackbars-stack';

function MyComponent() {
  const { enqueueSnackbar } = useSnackbar();

  const handleClick = () => {
    enqueueSnackbar(...);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={handleClick}>Show Snackbar</button>
    </>
  );
}

const App = () => (
  <SnackbarProvider>
    <MyComponent />
  </SnackbarProvider>
);

export default App;

NextJS support

If you're using Next.js and need to integrate the react-snackbars-stack package into your root layout (or any server component), you’ll need to handle the use client directive. This is required because the context provider relies on React hooks, which are incompatible with server components by default.

Create a Wrapper Component, e.g., SnackbarProviderWrapper.jsx, with the use client directive.

'use client';

import { SnackbarProvider } from 'react-snackbars-stack';

export default SnackbarProvider;

The SnackbarProvider component is used to wrap your application and provide the snackbar context.

TODO

• Custom hook support
• Theme switching (MUI based)
• Filled icons option
• Custom theming support
• Custom transitions

Purpose: Created for personal use due to Notistack's outdated dependencies causing deployment issues. Published for anyone seeking an alternative to Notistack (though this package is not superior to Notistack).
