XMFlashBundle

Makes adding & translating flash messages in Symfony simple.

Installation

Step 1: Download the Bundle

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute the following command to download the latest stable version of this bundle:

$ php composer.phar require xm/flash-bundle

This command requires Composer.

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

Then, enable the bundle by adding it to the list of registered bundles in the app/AppKernel.php file of your project:

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

// ...
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
            // ...
            new XM\FlashBundle\XMFlashBundle(),
        );

        // ...
    }
}

Step 3: Add Service Alias

Adding the following will make the call to the service shorter:

flash_handler: '@xm_flash.handler'

Usage

The handler will always pull messages from the default translation file, typically messages.

Just a message, no translation:

$this->get('flash_handler')->add('success', 'The record was saved.');

With translation message key and parameters:

$this->get('flash_handler')->add('success', 'app.message.entity_updated', ['%name%' => 'User']);
