Ember Flash Message

Overview

Ember Flash Message is a simple plugin that allows users to display a message on the next route transition in a similar way to Rails' flash[:notice]. This plugin is useful for displaying one-time notices on later pages.

Features

• Route Access: Any route in Ember.js can have access to the flashMessage('message') function, which sets the message to be displayed.
• Template Integration: The message can be displayed in any template by including the required code snippet. It is recommended to add this code to the application template for the message to be available on all pages.
• Instant Message: In some cases, users may want to display the message immediately without waiting for the route transition. This can be achieved using the now() function to update the message.
• Message Dismissal: The main FlashMessageController contains a convenience action called dismissFlashMessage, which removes the current message. Users can simply add a link or any other element to trigger this action.
• Controller Interaction: The flash message can be set from the controller by adding a needs dependency for the flashMessage controller. Whenever the flash message is set from a controller, it will be displayed instantly.
