{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}

There are two components to the @Alerts@ module.
1. <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/heist Heist> splices for rendering the alerts
2. Alert redirection helpers which pass the alert type and message
via the HTTP GET query string.
First the Heist splices can be added with the 'addAlertSplices'
function which takes the Heist Snaplet as an argument.
> initApp :: SnapletInit App App
> initApp = makeSnaplet "app" "An snaplet example application." Nothing $ do
> h <- nestSnaplet "heist" heist $ heistInit "templates"
> addAlertSplices h
> return $ App h
Second, generate an alert in a handler.
> import Snap.Utils.Alert (alertSuccess)
>
> actionSuccess :: Handler App App ()
> actionSuccess reg = alertSuccess msg url
> where msg = "Successfully completed an action!"
> url = "/"
Third, ensure the Heist template has a place to bind alerts.
> <alerts>
> <div class="alerts">
> <div class="fade in alert alert-${alert-type} alert-dismissable">
> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</button>
> <strong><alert-text/></strong>
> </div>
> </div>
> </alerts>
@Snap.Utils.Alert@ is different from similar modules because it relies
on more traditional HTTP-based methods of stateless control flow like
GET queries instead of relying on cookies and server state
continuations. <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/snap-extras/docs/Snap-Extras-FlashNotice.html Snap.Extras.FlashNotice>,
for example, uses cookies to store alert state.
