message*	String/Function(payload)	-	Toast Body Content

Take a look at the below examples

Simple Example

import Toasted from 'vue-toasted';
Vue.use(Toasted);
 
// Lets Register a Global Error Notification Toast.
Vue.toasted.register('my_app_error', 'Oops.. Something Went Wrong..', {
    type : 'error',
    icon : 'error_outline'
})

After Registering your toast you can easily access it in the vue component like below

// this will show a toast with message 'Oops.. Something Went Wrong..'
// all the custom toasts will be available under `toasted.global`
this.$toasted.global.my_app_error();

Advanced Example

You can also pass message as a function. which will give you more power. Lets think you need to pass a custom message to the error notification we built above.

this.$toasted.global.my_app_error({
    message : 'Not Authorized to Access'
});

you can register a toast with payload like below on the example.

import Toasted from 'vue-toasted';
Vue.use(Toasted);
 
// options to the toast
let options = {
    type : 'error',
    icon : 'error_outline'
};
 
// register the toast with the custom message
Vue.toasted.register('my_app_error',
    (payload) => {
        
        // if there is no message passed show default message
        if(! payload.message) {
    	    return "Oops.. Something Went Wrong.."
        }
        
        // if there is a message show it with the message
        return "Oops.. " + payload.message;
    },
    options
)
