Dialog Plugin for NativePHP Mobile

Native alert dialogs and toast notifications for NativePHP Mobile applications.

Overview

The Dialog API provides cross-platform native alert dialogs and toast/snackbar notifications.

Installation

composer require nativephp/mobile-dialog

Usage

Alert Dialogs

PHP (Livewire/Blade)

use Native\Mobile\Facades\Dialog;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Alert\ButtonPressed;

// Simple alert
Dialog::alert('Hello', 'Welcome to our app!');

// Alert with custom buttons
Dialog::alert('Confirm', 'Are you sure?', ['Cancel', 'Delete'])
    ->id('delete-confirm')
    ->show();

// Listen for button press
#[OnNative(ButtonPressed::class)]
public function handleButton($index, $label, $id = null)
{
    if ($id === 'delete-confirm' && $label === 'Delete') {
        $this->deleteItem();
    }
}

JavaScript (Vue/React/Inertia)

import { dialog, on, off, Events } from '#nativephp';

// Simple alert
await dialog.alert('Hello', 'Welcome to our app!');

// Alert with custom buttons
await dialog.alert('Confirm', 'Are you sure?', ['Cancel', 'Delete'])
    .id('delete-confirm');

// Listen for button press
const handleButton = (payload) => {
    const { index, label, id } = payload;
    if (id === 'delete-confirm' && label === 'Delete') {
        deleteItem();
    }
};

on(Events.Alert.ButtonPressed, handleButton);

Toast Notifications

PHP

use Native\Mobile\Facades\Dialog;

// Short toast (2 seconds)
Dialog::toast('Item saved!', 'short');

// Long toast (4 seconds) - default
Dialog::toast('Processing complete');

JavaScript

import { dialog } from '#nativephp';

// Short toast
dialog.toast('Item saved!', 'short');

// Long toast (default)
dialog.toast('Processing complete');

Configuration Methods

Alert Methods

id(string $id)

Set a unique identifier for the alert. Useful for identifying which alert triggered a button press.

Dialog::alert('Title', 'Message', ['OK', 'Cancel'])
    ->id('my-alert');

event(string $eventClass)

Specify a custom event class to dispatch when a button is pressed.

Dialog::alert('Title', 'Message')
    ->event(MyCustomEvent::class);

remember()

Store the alert ID in session for retrieval in event handlers.

Dialog::alert('Title', 'Message')
    ->id('confirm-action')
    ->remember();

// Later, in event handler
$alertId = \Native\Mobile\PendingAlert::lastId();

show()

Explicitly display the alert. If not called, the alert shows automatically when the object is destructed.

Dialog::alert('Title', 'Message')->show();

Toast Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
message	string	required	The message to display
duration	string	'long'	'short' (2s) or 'long' (4s)

Properties:

• int $index - The button index (0-based)
• string $label - The button label text
• string|null $id - The alert ID (if set)

PHP

{
    match($label) {
        'Delete' => $this->delete(),
        'Cancel' => null,
        default => null,
    };
}

Vue

import { on, off, Events } from '#nativephp';
import { onMounted, onUnmounted } from 'vue';

const handleButton = (payload) => {
    const { index, label, id } = payload;
    if (label === 'Delete') {
        deleteItem();
    }
};

onMounted(() => on(Events.Alert.ButtonPressed, handleButton));
