sweet-alert v7.0.0 Released: Here’s What’s New

I’m excited to announce the release of sweet-alert v7.0.0, the latest version of our popular alert library for Laravel.
This release includes several new features and bug fixes that make it easier and more customizable than ever before.

Here are the highlights:

ConfirmDelete Function
One of the most requested features from our users has been the ability to add a confirm delete dialog to their applications.
With v7.0.0, i've added the confirmDelete function that makes it easy to create a dialog that asks users to confirm before deleting an item.
This function is fully customizable, allowing you to choose the text, buttons, and icons that appear in the dialog.

Usage

To use the confirmDelete function, you need to call it in your controller method in my case its index , passing in the required parameters.

For example:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class UsersController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        $users = User::latest()->paginate(10);

        $title = 'Delete User!';
        $text = "Are you sure you want to delete?";
        confirmDelete($title, $text);
        return view('users.index', compact('users'));
    }
}

This allows the confirmation alert to be displayed after a clicking the delete button.

In your view, you can add the data-confirm-delete attribute to the delete button to trigger the confirmation popup.
The confirmation popup will use the configuration options set in the session flash data.

For example:

<a href="{{ route('users.destroy', $user->id) }}" class="btn btn-danger" data-confirm-delete="true">Delete</a>

The following environment variables can be used to customize the confirm alert:

SWEET_ALERT_CONFIRM_DELETE_CONFIRM_BUTTON_TEXT

This variable sets the text of the confirmation button. Default is Yes, delete it!.

SWEET_ALERT_CONFIRM_DELETE_CANCEL_BUTTON_TEXT

This variable sets the text of the cancel button. Default is Cancel.

SWEET_ALERT_CONFIRM_DELETE_SHOW_CANCEL_BUTTON

This variable sets whether to show the cancel button in the popup. Possible values are true or false. Default is true.

SWEET_ALERT_CONFIRM_DELETE_SHOW_CLOSE_BUTTON

This variable sets whether to show the close button in the popup. Possible values are true or false. Default is false.

SWEET_ALERT_CONFIRM_DELETE_ICON

This variable sets icon of the popup. Default is warning.

SWEET_ALERT_CONFIRM_DELETE_SHOW_LOADER_ON_CONFIRM

This variable sets whether to show a loader in delete button of the popup. Possible values are true or false. Default is true.

You can customize the configuration options of the confirmation popup by setting the environment variables in your .env file.
