Question 1

How do I create a custom theme in Vue Toastify?

Accepted Answer

Use the `createVtTheme` or `getCssRules` helpers from the plugin to define custom color schemes, as shown in the custom styling section. This generates CSS rules that you can insert or modify to match your brand's design.

Question 2

Can Vue Toastify handle HTML in toast notifications?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you must enable the `enableHtmlInterpretation` setting explicitly. The README warns that future versions will default this to false for security, so you need to update your configuration if you rely on HTML content.

Question 3

How to integrate Vue Toastify with Nuxt 3?

Accepted Answer

Create a client-side plugin that lazy loads the plugin and configure auto-imports in nuxt.config.ts, as detailed in the 'Usage with Nuxt' section. This optimizes performance by reducing the initial bundle size.

Question 4

What are the lifecycle events in Vue Toastify?

Accepted Answer

Events like 'vtPaused' and 'vtResumed' can be listened to using the `useVtEvents()` composable, allowing callbacks for interactive features such as pausing toasts on hover, as demonstrated in the README examples.

Question 5

Vue Toastify vs Vue Notify: which is better for Vue 3?

Accepted Answer

Vue Toastify is dependency-free and optimized for minimal bundle size with TypeScript support, ideal for lean projects. Vue Notify might offer more pre-styled options but can be heavier; choose based on whether you prioritize customization or out-of-the-box styles.

Question 6

Is Vue Toastify compatible with Vue 2?

Accepted Answer

No, Vue Toastify is specifically built for Vue 3, as stated in the description. For Vue 2 applications, you'll need to use alternative notification plugins like vue-toastification or others designed for Vue 2.

Question 7

How to define custom notification methods in Vue Toastify?

Accepted Answer

Add a `customNotifications` key to the plugin settings with your method definitions, then use them via `useToast()`. Extend TypeScript interfaces for type safety, as explained in the ambient declaration section of the README.
