pwix:bootbox

What is it ?

A thin package for Meteor which encapsulates the creation and the display of modal dialogs:

• either as an alert dialog, which just display a message and waits for an aknowledgement of the user,

• or a confirm dialog, which waits for a Yes|No decision of the user.

Thanks to the pwix:modal package, the dialogs are draggable, and can be moved by the user.

Usage

    import { Bootbox } from 'meteor/pwix:bootbox';

    alert()

        Bootbox.alert( message );

            no title
            btn: OK

        or

        Bootbox.alert({
            title: title,
            message: message,
            btn: text,
            cb: cb
        });

    confirm()

        Bootbox.confirm( message, ( res ) => {
            res = true|false
        });

            no title
            btns:
                Cancel  -> false
                OK      -> true

        or

        Bootbox.confirm({
            title: title,
            message: message,
            btn_true: text,
            btn_false: text
        }, ( res ) => {
            res = true|false
        });

        or

        Bootbox.confirm({
            title: title,
            message: message,
            btns_family: Bootbox.C.Family.YESNO | Bootbox.C.Family.OKCANCEL | Bootbox.C.Family.OKCLOSE
        }, ( res ) => {
            res = true|false
        });

Note that provided arguments are directly passed to Modal.run() method. You may so configure the opened modal as you want. See the pwix:modal documentation.

Configuration

None at the moment.

NPM peer dependencies

Starting with v 1.1.0, and in accordance with advices from the Meteor Guide, we no more hardcode NPM dependencies in the Npm.depends clause of the package.js.

Instead we check npm versions of installed packages at runtime, on server startup, in development environment.

Dependencies as of v 1.5.0:

    '@popperjs/core': '^2.11.6',
    'bootstrap': '^5.2.1',
    'jquery-ui': '^1.13.2'

Each of these dependencies should be installed at application level:

    meteor npm install <package> --save

New and updated translations are willingly accepted, and more than welcome. Just be kind enough to submit a PR on the Github repository.
