FlashIt

Welcome to flash_it - the flash helper for translating your flash messages with ease!

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'flash_it'

Usage

  class UsersController < ApplicationController
    def update
      if current_user.profile.update_attributes(user_params)
        flash_it(:success)
        return redirect_to edit_user_profile_path
      else
        flash_it(:error)
        render :edit
      end
    end
  end

flash_it will make a lookup in your translation files for flash_messages.users.update.success or flash_messages.users.update.error

By default, the :error messages will become a flash[:error] and everything else becomes a flash[:success] but of course you're able to customize it, by given the type of the flash message: flash_it(:success, :notice)

Also this is able flash_it(:attention, :warning) which will lookup into flash_messages.controller.action.attention and uses a flash[:warning]

Controller Namespacing

If you are having namespaced controllers, just edit your yml file to the namespaces Lets say we have a Admin::Users::PaymentHistoryController, then your yml file needs to look like this

en:
  flash_messages:
    admin:
      users:
        payment_history:
          key: value
