SnackbarJS
SnackbarJS is a lightweight and jQuery powered plugin made to work just like the tooltips in Bootstrap.
Include it in your html page with:
...
To use it in HTML:
Click me
or with javascript:
$.snackbar({content: "This is my awesome snackbar!"});
Options
Following options are supported to customize look and behaviour:
var options = {
content: "Some text", // text of the snackbar
style: "toast", // add a custom class to your snackbar
timeout: 100, // time in milliseconds after the snackbar autohides, 0 is disabled
htmlAllowed: true, // allows HTML as content value
onClose: function(){ } // callback called when the snackbar gets closed.
}
$.snackbar(options);
Or in HTML:
data-content="Some text"
data-style="toast"
data-timeout="100"
data-html-allowed="true">
Click me
Tip: SnackbarJS returns always a jQuery element which corresponds to the snackbar DOM element, you can use it to get the ID of the element, and then do other operations with it.
Heads up!: The onClose callback is not available using the HTML syntax.
Interact with snackbars
Once you have created a snackbar you can show, hide or toggle it with:
$("#snackbarid").snackbar("show");
$("#snackbarid").snackbar("hide");
$("#snackbarid").snackbar("toggle");
#snackbarid can be both the button with the data-toggle=snackbar attribute or the snackbar element.
Calling it on a non-existing snackbar will create it before executing the specificed action.

Browserify
This library is UMD compatible, so you can use it in this way:
var jquery = require('jquery');
require('snackbarjs');
var options = {
...
}
jquery.snackbar(options);
