Dialog plugin manual installation in Rust
To manually install the dialog plugin: 1) Run 'cargo add tauri-plugin-dialog' in the src-tauri folder. 2) Modify lib.rs to initialize the plugin by calling .plugin(tauri_plugin_dialog::init()) on the tauri::Builder::default(). 3) Install the npm package with 'npm install @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog' (or equivalent for other package managers) if creating dialogs in JavaScript.
Dialog plugin JavaScript imports
Dialog plugin functions are imported from '@tauri-apps/plugin-dialog'. Available functions include: ask() for Yes/No dialogs, confirm() for Ok/Cancel dialogs, message() for message dialogs with Ok button, open() for file/directory selection, and save() for file/directory save dialogs. When using 'withGlobalTauri': true, functions are accessed via window.__TAURI__.dialog.
Dialog ask() function example
Example showing Yes/No dialog in JavaScript:
```javascript
import { ask } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-dialog';
const answer = await ask('This action cannot be reverted. Are you sure?', {
title: 'Tauri',
kind: 'warning',
});
console.log(answer);
// Prints boolean to the console
```
Dialog confirm() function example
Example showing Ok/Cancel dialog in JavaScript:
```javascript
import { confirm } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-dialog';
const confirmation = await confirm(
'This action cannot be reverted. Are you sure?',
{ title: 'Tauri', kind: 'warning' }
);
console.log(confirmation);
// Prints boolean to the console
```
Dialog save() function example
Example showing file/directory save dialog in JavaScript:
```javascript
import { save } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-dialog';
const path = await save({
filters: [
{
name: 'My Filter',
extensions: ['png', 'jpeg'],
},
],
});
console.log(path);
// Prints the chosen path
```
Dialog plugin Rust API imports
Rust dialog functionality is accessed via the DialogExt trait from tauri_plugin_dialog. Use app.dialog() to access dialog methods. Additional imports include MessageDialogButtons and MessageDialogKind for button and kind options.
Dialog Rust ask dialog example
Example showing blocking ask dialog in Rust:
```rust
use tauri_plugin_dialog::{DialogExt, MessageDialogButtons};
let answer = app.dialog()
.message("Tauri is Awesome")
.title("Tauri is Awesome")
.buttons(MessageDialogButtons::OkCancelCustom("Absolutely", "Totally"))
.blocking_show();
```
For non-blocking operation, use show() instead of blocking_show() and provide a closure to handle the result.
Dialog Rust message dialog example
Example showing blocking message dialog in Rust:
```rust
use tauri_plugin_dialog::{DialogExt, MessageDialogKind};
let ans = app.dialog()
.message("File not found")
.kind(MessageDialogKind::Error)
.title("Warning")
.blocking_show();
```
For non-blocking operation, use show() instead with a closure to handle the result.
Dialog Rust pick file example
Example showing blocking file pick dialog in Rust:
```rust
use tauri_plugin_dialog::DialogExt;
let file_path = app.dialog().file().blocking_pick_file();
// return a file_path `Option`, or `None` if the user closes the dialog
```
For non-blocking operation, use pick_file() instead and provide a closure to handle the Option result.
Dialog Rust save file example
Example showing blocking save file dialog in Rust:
```rust
use tauri_plugin_dialog::DialogExt;
let file_path = app
.dialog()
.file()
.add_filter("My Filter", &["png", "jpeg"])
.blocking_save_file();
// do something with the optional file path here
// the file path is `None` if the user closed the dialog
```
Dialog plugin file path return values by platform
The dialog plugin returns different path formats depending on the platform: On Linux, Windows, and macOS, file system paths are returned. On iOS, file:// URIs are returned. On Android, content URIs are returned. The filesystem plugin works with any path format out of the box.
Dialog plugin setup in Rust
To use tauri-plugin-dialog: Add tauri-plugin-dialog = "2" to Cargo.toml. In main(): plugin(tauri_plugin_dialog::init()). In setup: use tauri_plugin_dialog::DialogExt; then app.dialog().file().pick_file(|file_path| { /* handle path */ }); app.dialog().message("text").show();
Dialog plugin setup in JavaScript
To use @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog: Add @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog: ^2.0.0 to package.json. In Rust: plugin(tauri_plugin_dialog::init()). In JavaScript: import { save } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-dialog'; const filePath = await save({ filters: [{ name: 'Image', extensions: ['png', 'jpeg'] }] });
Notification plugin setup in Rust
To use tauri-plugin-notification: Add tauri-plugin-notification = "2" to Cargo.toml. In main(): plugin(tauri_plugin_notification::init()). In setup: use tauri_plugin_notification::NotificationExt; use tauri::plugin::PermissionState; if app.notification().permission_state()? == PermissionState::Granted { app.notification().builder().body("text").show()?; }
Notification plugin setup in JavaScript
To use @tauri-apps/plugin-notification: Add @tauri-apps/plugin-notification: ^2.0.0 to package.json. In Rust: plugin(tauri_plugin_notification::init()). In JavaScript: import { sendNotification } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-notification'; sendNotification('text');
Dialog plugin setup and API in Tauri 2.0
Add 'tauri-plugin-dialog = "2"' to Cargo.toml. Register with 'tauri::Builder::default().plugin(tauri_plugin_dialog::init())'. In JavaScript, import { save } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-dialog'; const filePath = await save({ filters: [{ name: 'Image', extensions: ['png', 'jpeg'] }] });
Dialog plugin Rust API in Tauri 2.0
Use tauri_plugin_dialog::DialogExt trait. Example: app.dialog().file().pick_file(|file_path| { }); app.dialog().message('Tauri is Awesome!').show();
Dialog plugin installation automatic command
To install the dialog plugin automatically, run `npm run tauri add dialog` with npm, `yarn run tauri add dialog` with yarn, `pnpm tauri add dialog` with pnpm, or `cargo tauri add dialog` with cargo.
Dialog plugin manual installation cargo command
To manually install the dialog plugin, run `cargo add tauri-plugin-dialog` to add it to the project dependencies in Cargo.toml.
Dialog plugin Rust initialization in lib.rs
To initialize the dialog plugin in Rust, add `.plugin(tauri_plugin_dialog::init())` to the tauri::Builder chain in lib.rs.
Dialog plugin npm package installation
To use dialogs in JavaScript, install the npm package with `npm install @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog`, `yarn add @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog`, or `pnpm add @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog`.
JavaScript ask dialog function
The `ask` function from @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog shows a question dialog with Yes and No buttons. It returns a boolean. Example: `const answer = await ask('This action cannot be reverted. Are you sure?', { title: 'Tauri', type: 'warning' });`
JavaScript confirm dialog function
The `confirm` function from @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog shows a question dialog with Ok and Cancel buttons. It returns a boolean. Example: `const confirmation = await confirm('This action cannot be reverted. Are you sure?', { title: 'Tauri', type: 'warning' });`
JavaScript message dialog function
The `message` function from @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog shows a message dialog with an Ok button. It returns false if the user closes the dialog. Example: `await message('File not found', { title: 'Tauri', type: 'error' });`
JavaScript open file dialog function
The `open` function from @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog opens a file/directory selection dialog. The `multiple` option controls whether multiple selection is allowed, and `directory` controls whether it is a directory selection. Example: `const file = await open({ multiple: false, directory: false });`
JavaScript save file dialog function
The `save` function from @tauri-apps/plugin-dialog opens a file/directory save dialog. It accepts a `filters` option with an array of objects containing `name` and `extensions` properties. Example: `const path = await save({ filters: [{ name: 'My Filter', extensions: ['png', 'jpeg'] }] });`
Rust dialog blocking question dialog
In Rust, use `app.dialog().message("message").title("title").ok_button_label("Absolutely").cancel_button_label("Totally").blocking_show()` to create a blocking question dialog with custom button labels.
Rust dialog non-blocking show method
In Rust, use `.show(|result| { ... })` instead of `.blocking_show()` to make dialog operations non-blocking and handle results in a callback.
Rust dialog message with MessageDialogKind
In Rust, create a message dialog using `app.dialog().message("message").kind(MessageDialogKind::Error).title("title").blocking_show()` where kind can be Error, Info, or other MessageDialogKind variants.
Rust dialog blocking file pick
In Rust, use `app.dialog().file().blocking_pick_file()` to block and show a file picker dialog. It returns an Option of the file path, or None if the user closes the dialog.
Rust dialog non-blocking file pick
In Rust, use `app.dialog().file().pick_file(|file_path| { ... })` for a non-blocking file picker that handles the result in a callback.
Rust dialog save file with filter
In Rust, use `app.dialog().file().add_filter("My Filter", &["png", "jpeg"]).blocking_save_file()` to show a blocking save dialog with file extension filters. It returns an Option of the file path.
Rust dialog non-blocking save file
In Rust, use `app.dialog().file().add_filter("My Filter", &["png", "jpeg"]).pick_file(|file_path| { ... })` for a non-blocking save dialog.
Dialog plugin primary purpose
The dialog plugin provides native system dialogs for opening and saving files, along with message dialogs.
