GI.Adw.Objects.Toast

A helper object for [classtoastOverlay].

Toasts are meant to be passed into [methodtoastOverlay.add_toast] as follows:

c code

adw_toast_overlay_add_toast (overlay, adw_toast_new (_("Simple Toast")));

<picture> <source srcset="toast-simple-dark.png" media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"> <img src="toast-simple.png" alt="toast-simple"> </picture>

Toasts always have a close button. They emit the signaltoast[dismissed] signal when disappearing.

propertytoast:timeout

determines how long the toast stays on screen, while

propertytoast:priority

determines how it behaves if another toast is already being displayed.

Toast titles use Pango markup by default, set [propertytoast:use-markup] to FALSE if this is unwanted.

propertytoast:custom-title

can be used to replace the title label with a custom widget.

Actions

Toasts can have one button on them, with a label and an attached Action.

c code

AdwToast *toast = adw_toast_new (_("Toast with Action"));

adw_toast_set_button_label (toast, _("_Example"));
adw_toast_set_action_name (toast, "win.example");

adw_toast_overlay_add_toast (overlay, toast);

<picture> <source srcset="toast-action-dark.png" media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"> <img src="toast-action.png" alt="toast-action"> </picture>

Modifying toasts

Toasts can be modified after they have been shown. For this, an AdwToast reference must be kept around while the toast is visible.

A common use case for this is using toasts as undo prompts that stack with each other, allowing to batch undo the last deleted items:

c code

static void
toast_undo_cb (GtkWidget  *sender,
               const char *action,
               GVariant   *param)
{
  // Undo the deletion
}

static void
dismissed_cb (MyWindow *self)
{
  self->undo_toast = NULL;

  // Permanently delete the items
}

static void
delete_item (MyWindow *self,
             MyItem   *item)
{
  g_autofree char *title = NULL;
  int n_items;

  // Mark the item as waiting for deletion
  n_items = ... // The number of waiting items

  if (!self->undo_toast) {
    self->undo_toast = adw_toast_new_format (_("‘%s’ deleted"), ...);

    adw_toast_set_priority (self->undo_toast, ADW_TOAST_PRIORITY_HIGH);
    adw_toast_set_button_label (self->undo_toast, _("_Undo"));
    adw_toast_set_action_name (self->undo_toast, "toast.undo");

    g_signal_connect_swapped (self->undo_toast, "dismissed",
                              G_CALLBACK (dismissed_cb), self);

    adw_toast_overlay_add_toast (self->toast_overlay, self->undo_toast);

    return;
  }

  title =
    g_strdup_printf (ngettext ("<span font_features='tnum=1'>%d</span> item deleted",
                               "<span font_features='tnum=1'>%d</span> items deleted",
                               n_items), n_items);

  adw_toast_set_title (self->undo_toast, title);

  // Bump the toast timeout
  adw_toast_overlay_add_toast (self->toast_overlay, g_object_ref (self->undo_toast));
}

static void
my_window_class_init (MyWindowClass *klass)
{
  GtkWidgetClass *widget_class = GTK_WIDGET_CLASS (klass);

  gtk_widget_class_install_action (widget_class, "toast.undo", NULL, toast_undo_cb);
}

Signals

buttonClicked

after toast #buttonClicked callback

By default the object invoking the signal is not passed to the callback. If you need to access it, you can use the implit ?self parameter. Note that this requires activating the ImplicitParams GHC extension.

onToastButtonClicked :: (IsToast a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ToastButtonClickedCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId

afterToastDismissed :: (IsToast a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ToastDismissedCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId

Connect a signal handler for the dismissed signal, to be run after the default handler. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

By default the object invoking the signal is not passed to the callback. If you need to access it, you can use the implit ?self parameter. Note that this requires activating the ImplicitParams GHC extension.

onToastDismissed :: (IsToast a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ToastDismissedCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId
