Usage

Adding messages

Inject the IFlasher service and call the IFlasher.Add(messageType, message) method.

flasher.Add("success", "My very first success message!");
flasher.Add("info", "My very first info message!");
flasher.Add("warning", "My very first warning message!");
flasher.Add("danger", "My very first danger message!");

Reading messages

Inject the IFlasher service and call the IFlasher.GetMessages() method.

@using SharpGrip.FlashMessages
@inject IFlasher Flasher

<div class="alerts">
    @foreach (var message in Flasher.GetMessages())
    {
        <div class="row alert alert-@message.Type alert-dismissible fade show" role="alert">
            @message.Text
            <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close">
                <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
            </button>
        </div>
    }
</div>

Peeking at messages

Inject the IFlasher service and call the IFlasher.PeekMessages() method. Peeking at messages will not clear the messages present in the message store.

var messages = flasher.PeekMessages();

Clearing messages

Inject the IFlasher service and call the IFlasher.Clear() method.

flasher.Clear();

Note: Clearing the message store is not necessary when reading messages via the IFlasher.GetMessages() method.
