mzur / kirby-flash Goto Github PK

kirby-flash works really well when I want to save a success message or an error for the next page load, and I return a redirect from a controller.

However, I'd like to use kirby-flash in situations where I render a 422 response immediately after a form error. In this case, I'd like the flash error message to show up in the response for the current request (and not the subsequent page load).

Rails has a similar pattern, and the flash object has a now method to support this use case.

Would you be open to this feature?

I think the cleanest API would probably be to support a 3rd, optional boolean argument called "now" on flash->set() and the flash helper. Under the hood, this would store the data in a separate temporary array on the Flash instance, which would not be persisted to the session. flash and flash->get() would read from both the session data and the temporary data when looking for a key.
