A lightweight, customizable toast notification library for Svelte applications.
Demo: https://mongodillo.github.io/svelte-simpletoast/
Use the package manager npm to install svelte-simpletoast:
$ npm i svelte-simpletoast
The following are exported:
To use svelte-simpletoast
, you'll need to import and utilize both the ToastContainer
component and the toasts
controller.
Place the ToastContainer
in your root layout/page and optionally override various options for customization.
In the event you are using the optional toastConfig
with the position/smPosition
options, please import toasts
as well as the options below are stored as values in the toasts.positionOptions
object
+layout.svelte
:
<script>
import { ToastContainer, toasts } from 'svelte-simpletoast';
// Optional configurations
const toastConfig = {
duration: 5000, // Override the default duration
autoClose: true, // Override the default "autoClose" boolean
position: toasts.positionOptions.TOP_RIGHT, // Override default positioning of toasts for screens larger than 640px
smPosition: toasts.positionOptions.BOTTOM_MIDDLE, // Override default positioning of toasts for screens smaller than 640px
maxToasts: 4, // Limit the number of toasts to avoid cluttering the screen
// Customize the color scheme
colorScheme: {
neutral: { color: '#111827', bg: '#f3f4f6' },
error: { color: '#dc2626', bg: '#fed7d7' },
success: { color: '#059669', bg: '#c6f6d5' },
info: { color: '#065d9d', bg: '#bfdbfe' },
warning: { color: '#d97706', bg: '#fef3c7' }
}
};
</script>
...
<ToastContainer {toastConfig} />
The toasts
controller can be used anywhere in your application to display toast notifications:
MyComponent.svelte
:
<script>
import { toasts } from 'svelte-simpletoast';
function showAllToasts() {
toasts.error('Error Title', 'Error message', 10000);
toasts.success('Success Title', 'Success message');
toasts.processing('Data Downloading', 'Processing message');
toasts.neutral('Neutral Title', 'Neutral message', 500, true);
toasts.info('Info Title', 'Info message', 7500);
toasts.warning('Warning Title', 'Warning message', 1000, true);
}
</script>
<button on:click="{showAllToasts}">Show Toasts</button>
You can import the ToastContainer
and toasts
controller from the svelte-simpletoast/dist-js
import { ToastContainer, toasts } from 'svelte-simpletoast/dist-js';
const toastContainer = new ToastContainer({
target: document.body,
props: {
toastConfig: {
duration: 5000, // Duration (in milliseconds) for which a toast is displayed
autoClose: true, // If true, the toast will automatically close after the duration
position: toasts.positionOptions.TOP_RIGHT, // Positioning of toasts for screens larger than 640px
smPosition: toasts.positionOptions.BOTTOM_RIGHT, // Positioning of toasts for screens smaller than 640px
maxToasts: 7, // Maximum number of toasts that can be displayed at a time
colorScheme: {
neutral: { color: '#111827', bg: '#f3f4f6' },
error: { color: '#dc2626', bg: '#fed7d7' },
success: { color: '#059669', bg: '#c6f6d5' },
info: { color: '#065d9d', bg: '#bfdbfe' },
warning: { color: '#d97706', bg: '#fef3c7' }
}
}
}
});
toasts.success('SUCCESS TITLE', 'MESSAGE');

The library comes with a set of default configurations for toast notifications. Here's what the default configuration looks like:
{
duration: 5000, // Duration (in milliseconds) for which a toast is displayed
autoClose: true, // If true, the toast will automatically close after the duration
position: toasts.positionOptions.TOP_RIGHT, // Positioning of toasts for screens larger than 640px
smPosition: toasts.positionOptions.BOTTOM_RIGHT, // Positioning of toasts for screens smaller than 640px
maxToasts: 7, // Maximum number of toasts that can be displayed at a time
colorScheme: {
neutral: { color: '#111827', bg: '#f3f4f6' },
error: { color: '#dc2626', bg: '#fed7d7' },
success: { color: '#059669', bg: '#c6f6d5' },
info: { color: '#065d9d', bg: '#bfdbfe' },
warning: { color: '#d97706', bg: '#fef3c7' }
}
};
You can override these defaults by passing your own configuration to the ToastContainer
as shown in the Usage
section.
Note: the default config for a processing
toast is to not close automatically - i.e. you should be manually closing the toast via toasts.removeToast(id) given its meant to reflect a processing task such as "fetch"
Please note, the color scheme is used to define the background and text color for each type of toast. The keys are the toast types, and the values are objects containing the color
(text color) and bg
(background color) properties.
Remember, these default values are subject to change based on updates to the library. Always refer to the source code or official documentation for the most accurate information.
The library provides a number of options for positioning toast notifications on the screen - toasts.positionOptions.[variable]
. The positioning options are particularly useful for ensuring the toasts appear exactly where you want them to on different screen sizes.
Here are the available position options:
TOP_RIGHT
: Positions the toasts at the top-right corner of the screen.TOP_LEFT
: Positions the toasts at the top-left corner of the screen.TOP_MIDDLE
: Positions the toasts at the top-center of the screen.BOTTOM_RIGHT
: Positions the toasts at the bottom-right corner of the screen.BOTTOM_LEFT
: Positions the toasts at the bottom-left corner of the screen.BOTTOM_MIDDLE
: Positions the toasts at the bottom-center of the screen.To set the position of the toasts, you can use the position
and smPosition
properties in your configuration. position
sets the position of the toasts for larger screens (screen width > 640px), while smPosition
sets the position of the toasts for smaller screens (screen width < 640px).
Here's how you can set these properties in your configuration:
const toastConfig = {
// ...
position: toasts.positionOptions.TOP_RIGHT, // For larger screens
smPosition: toasts.positionOptions.BOTTOM_MIDDLE // For smaller screens
// ...
};
This configuration will position the toasts at the top-right corner of the screen for larger screens, and at the bottom-center of the screen for smaller screens.
You can use any combination of the position options based on your design preferences and requirements.
The toasts
controller provides several methods for displaying different types of toast notifications. Each method returns a toastId
that can be used to manually remove the toast.
Note: duration (ms) and autoClose (boolean) are optional parameters.
// Success toast
toast.success(title, message, duration?, autoClose?);
// Error toast
toast.error(title, message, duration?, autoClose?);
// Info toast
toast.info(title, message, duration?, autoClose?);
// Warning toast
toast.warning(title, message, duration?, autoClose?);
// Processing toast
toast.processing(title, message, duration?, autoClose?);
// Neutral toast
toast.neutral(title, message, duration?, autoClose?);
// Remove a toast
toasts.removeToast(id);
Font sizes are set to inherit
. As such, you may tweak the font size of the toasts by wrapping the ToastContainer in a parent element with the stated font size.
The Toast title uses h6
and toast text uses p
tags.
For example, in Svelte
<div class="text-sm">
<ToastContainer {toastConfig} />
</div>
You may have separate <div>
element with the necessary class for text size, and have the target point to that specific element instead of document.body
The package is bundled with SvelteKit. Contributions are welcomed following the standard Github contribution workflow.
