Best way to suppress duplicate alerts

[tnrich]

Hey there,

I was just wondering what the best way to suppress duplicate toaster messages would be. Ideally toasts with the same text could be collapsed/filtered out so only 1 is shown instead of many.

Thanks!

Hi,

For now, I would say externally (Same answer as in #123), Which I kept open to consider such options in the next version.

Please update #123 with the use cases you have.

Thanks!

Sounds good thanks Mohammad. Just to be clear your solution in #123 is basically to use a helper function that acts external to alerting itself. I think ideally this would be baked into the alertify function itself. I dont imagine it should be too tough to do. We just need to have a hook that is called before the .success(), .error(), etc methods are called. The hook would run any necessary logic and then delegate to the original function being called. What do you think?

I don't see much difference between using hooks vs an external wrapper. I was thinking of something that is configurable, where you don't have to write any logic.

Anyway, PRs are very welcome :)
