Description

Describe your changes in detail

Motivation and Context

Resolves BED-8549

Why is this change required? What problem does it solve?

  • Brings snackbar toast messages into alignment with current design system
  • Custom snackbar component utilizes the preexisting Alert DoodleUI component, creating consistent styling
  • Enhances current toast messages with optional title prop

How Has This Been Tested?

  • added new unit tests
  • existing tests passing
  • manual testing in browser

Existing toast messages will render in default variant, message only, no title. So there is no functional change to existing toast notifications. All existing options (positioning, timing, persistence) remain available and unchanged from the current setup.

Please describe in detail how you tested your changes.
Include details of your testing environment, and the tests you ran to
see how your change affects other areas of the code, etc.

Screenshots (optional):

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The notification system now uses a shared NotificationSnackbar component. Notification options support an optional title. Notifier and AppNotifications pass custom snackbar content, and tests cover rendering and dismissal behavior.

Changes

Notification snackbar flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Notification option contract and exports
packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/providers/NotificationProvider/model.ts, packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/providers/NotificationProvider/actions.ts, packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/providers/NotificationProvider/index.ts
NotificationOptions adds an optional title. Notification actions use this type. The provider exports NotificationSnackbar by name.
Custom snackbar provider and rendering
packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/providers/NotificationProvider/NotificationsProvider.tsx, packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/providers/NotificationProvider/NotificationsProvider.test.tsx, packages/javascript/doodle-ui/src/components/Alert/Alert.tsx
NotificationSnackbar renders alert content with an optional title and variant. It closes the snackbar by ID. Tests cover rendering, styling, nullish variants, and dismissal. Alert content is vertically centered.
Notification producer integration
cmd/ui/src/components/Notifier.tsx, packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/components/AppNotifications.tsx
Notification producers pass NotificationSnackbar as custom content. They preserve notification IDs, messages, variants, titles, options, and lifecycle callbacks.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3291e

Optional snackbar titles are still omitted for notifications rendered through cmd/ui, so the feature is incomplete in that path. The PR should be updated to forward the title before merging.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Forward title to NotificationSnackbar.

This renderer forwards id, message, and variant, but not options.title. A cmd/ui notification with a title renders without that title. Pass the title as AppNotifications does.

Proposed fix
 content: (id, snackMessage) => (
-    <NotificationSnackbar id={id} message={snackMessage} variant={options.variant} />
+    <NotificationSnackbar id={id} message={snackMessage} variant={options.variant} title={options.title} />
 ),

The PR objective requires optional notification titles.

This does seem to be a valid concern I think?

@bfaulk96 Yes. The concern is valid.

Notifier.tsx replaces Notistack’s default rendering with NotificationSnackbar, but it does not forward options.title. Therefore, cmd/ui notifications that set a title lose it at render time.

Pass title={options.title} to NotificationSnackbar, consistent with AppNotifications.

Not sure if this is something we want to address or even can address in a good way, but the actual box of the toast is almost impossible to see for variants error and info (success is pretty difficult to see the box as well) on certain monitor color profiles. I've attached two photos I took with my phone (sorry for the bad quality - this is the only way to show the difference between two monitors, as screenshots capture the actual color, which still translates across screens):
Good monitor/Mac screen:

Lower quality monitor/different color profile:

nitpick: These could be simplified (ReactNode includes string)

if this component accepts a className, we should prefer that for styling:

<SnackbarContent ref={ref} style={{ justifyContent: 'center' }}>
<SnackbarContent ref={ref} className='justify-center'>

Just had a couple really small nitpicks, though I do think the CodeRabbit comment is probably a valid concern!
