A flash messaging system for Kohana v3.0 and higher.

To use, download the source, extract and rename to message. Move that folder into your modules directory and activate in your bootstrap.

To set a flash message all it takes is the following

There are 4 constants you can use to set a message

Message::ERROR = 'error'
Message::NOTICE = 'notice'
Message::SUCCESS = 'success'
Message::WARN = 'warn'

The message class produces the following code by default <ul id="message" class"type">

Message

Sample Usage

I get the most mileage from this class when validating forms. Here is a quick example.

$validation = new Validate($_POST);
$validation->rule(.....) <-- Add rules

if( $validation->check() )
{
	// Validation passed
	Message::success('Form Success!');
	// OR -> Message::set(Message::SUCCESS, 'Form Success!');
}
else
{
	// Validation failed
	Message::error($validation->errors('_form_');
	// OR -> Message::set(Message::ERROR, $validation->errors('_form_'));
}
