# Express Flash
Flash Messages for your Express Application
[](http://travis-ci.org/RGBboy/express-flash)
Flash is an extension of `connect-flash` with the ability to define a flash message
and render it without redirecting the request.
## Installation
Works with Express 3.x.x
npm install git://github.com/RGBboy/express-flash.git
## Usage
Set it up the same way you would `connect-flash`:
``` javascript
var flash = require('express-flash'),
express = require('express'),
app = express();
app.use(express.cookieParser('keyboard cat'));
app.use(express.session({ cookie: { maxAge: 60000 }}));
app.use(flash());
```
Use `req.flash()` in your middleware
``` javascript
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
req.flash('info', 'Welcome');
res.render('index', {
title: 'Home'
})
});
app.get('/addFlash', function (req, res) {
req.flash('info', 'Flash Message Added');
res.redirect('/');
});
```
Access the messages in your views via `locals.messages` (.jade in this case):
``` jade
- if (messages.info)
.message.info
span= messages.info
```
