<ons-action-sheet />

Action/bottom sheet that is displayed on top of current screen. This element can either be attached directly to the <body> or dynamically created from a template using the ons.createElement(template, { append: true }) utility function and the <template> tag. The action sheet is useful for displaying a list of options and asking the user to make a decision. A ons-action-sheet-button is provided for this purpose, although it can contain any type of content. It will automatically be displayed as Material Design (bottom sheet) when running on an Android device.

Tutorial

Dialogs

There are two components used to show dialogs: Dialog and AlertDialog. The Dialog component is a general dialog where you can put any content while the AlertDialog has some default styles that make it easy to show errors, warnings or questions to the user.

To show or hide the dialog the isOpen prop is used.

<Dialog isOpen={this.state.dialogShown}>
  Hi!

  <Button onClick={this.hideDialog.bind(this)}>
    Close
  </Button>
</Dialog>

Notification methods

The ons.notification object contains some useful methods to easily show alerts, confirmation dialogs and prompts:

  • ons.notification.alert(message, options)
  • ons.notificaiton.confirm(message, options)
  • ons.notification.prompt(message, options)

They all return a Promise object that can be used to handle the input from the user.

ons.notification.confirm('Are you ready?')
  .then((response) => {
    // Handle response.
  });
