Notification

Create toggleable notifications that fade out automatically.

Usage

The notification will not fade out but remain visible when you hover the message until you stop hovering. You can also close the notification by clicking it. To show notifications, the component provides a simple JavaScript API. The following code snippet gets you started.

JavaScript

UIkit.notification({
  message: "my-message!",
  status: "primary",
  pos: "top-right",
  timeout: 5000,
});

// Shortcuts
UIkit.notification("My message");
UIkit.notification("My message", status);
UIkit.notification("My message", {
  /* options */
});
Copy to clipboard 
  • <button
  class="demo uk-button uk-button-default"
  type="button"
  onclick="UIkit.notification({message: 'Notification message'})"
>
  Click me
</button>

HTML message

You can use HTML inside your notification message, like an icon from the Icon component.

UIkit.notification("<uk-icon icon='rocket'></uk-icon> Message");
Copy to clipboard 
  • <button
  class="demo uk-button uk-button-default"
  type="button"
  onclick="UIkit.notification({
      message: `<div class='uk-flex uk-flex-middle'><span class='uk-flex-none uk-margin-small-right'><uk-icon icon='rocket'></uk-icon></span> Message with an icon</div>`
  })"
>
  With icon
</button>

Position

Add one of the following parameters to adjust the notification’s position to different corners.

UIkit.notification("...", { pos: "top-right" });
