View Partial

Ddr::Alerts contains a view partial (ddr/alerts/message/_alert_message.html.erb) that displays the alert messages. This partial depends on the local 'alert_messages' to contain an array of Ddr::Alert::Message which are to be displayed. Render this partial in the desired view / layout of your application, passing in the appropriate value for the 'alert_messages' local. For example, override Blacklight's shared/_flash_messages.html.erb as shown below to include all active alert messages above the application's flash messages on each page:

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-md-12">
    <div id="main-flashes">
      <%= render partial: '/ddr/alerts/message/alert_message', locals: { alert_messages: Ddr::Alerts::Message.active } %>
      <%= yield %>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
