Ruby on Rails Flash messages with Foundation

There is a nice tip of how to do this with Bootstrap, https://coderwall.com/p/jzofog. But if you are using Foundation, here is how you can do the same with Foundation.

Add the following method to the ApplicationHelper:

def foundation_flash_class(level)
 case level.to_sym
 when :notice then "alert-box"
 when :alert then "alert-box warning"
 when :success then "alert-box success"
 when :info then "alert-box info"
 when :error then "alert-box alert"
 when :secondary then "alert-box secondary"
 end
 end

and then add the following to the layout:

- flash.each do |key, value|
 .alert-box{class: foundation_flash_class(key)}(data-alert)
 = value
 %a.close{href:"#"} ×
