# Notification Channel Example
The following example shows how to create a notification with a channel.
var channel = Ti.Android.NotificationManager.createNotificationChannel({
id: 'my_channel',
name: 'TEST CHANNEL',
importance: Ti.Android.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT
}),
notification = Ti.Android.createNotification({
icon: Ti.Android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_info,
contentTitle: 'TITLE',
contentText : 'This is a test',
channelId: channel.id
});
Ti.Android.NotificationManager.notify(100, notification);
# Properties
# apiName READONLY
The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.
The value of this property is the fully qualified name of the API. For example, Titanium.UI.Button
returns Ti.UI.Button
.
# bubbleParent
Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.
Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.
Default: true
# bypassDnd
Whether or not notifications posted to this channel can interrupt the user.
# enableLights
Whether notifications posted to this channel should display notification lights
# enableVibration
Whether notification posted to this channel should vibrate.
# importance
The audio stream type to use when playing the sound.
Specify one of the IMPORTANCE
constants from Titanium.Android.
# lifecycleContainer
The Window or TabGroup whose Activity lifecycle should be triggered on the proxy.
If this property is set to a Window or TabGroup, then the corresponding Activity lifecycle event callbacks will also be called on the proxy. Proxies that require the activity lifecycle will need this property set to the appropriate containing Window or TabGroup.
# lightColor
The notification light color for notifications posted to this channel.
# lockscreenVisibility
Whether or not notifications posted to this channel are shown on the lockscreen in full or redacted form.
# name
The visible name of this channel. The recommended maximum length is 40 characters; the value may be truncated if it is too long.
# showBadge
Whether notifications posted to this channel can appear as application icon badges in a Launcher.
# sound
A URL to the sound to play.
The URL cannot refer to a file in the Resources directory, but it can refer to a file in the raw resources directory (resRawDirectory).
To create a raw resource, place the audio file in the platform/android/res/raw
folder and reference it as:
notificationChannel.sound = Ti.Filesystem.resRawDirectory + 'my_sound.wav';
# vibratePattern
The vibration pattern for notifications posted to this channel.
Specify the pattern in milliseconds as an array. (e.g [100, 100, 100, 400, 400, 100, 100, 100])
# Methods
# addEventListener
Adds the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
callback | Callback<Titanium.Event> | Callback function to invoke when the event is fired. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# applyProperties
Applies the properties to the proxy.
Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that myproxy[key] = value.
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
props | Dictionary | A dictionary of properties to apply. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# fireEvent
Fires a synthesized event to any registered listeners.
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
event | Dictionary | A dictionary of keys and values to add to the Titanium.Event object sent to the listeners. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# removeEventListener
Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Multiple listeners can be registered for the same event, so the
callback
parameter is used to determine which listener to remove.
When adding a listener, you must save a reference to the callback function in order to remove the listener later:
var listener = function() { Ti.API.info("Event listener called."); }
window.addEventListener('click', listener);
To remove the listener, pass in a reference to the callback function:
window.removeEventListener('click', listener);
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
callback | Callback<Titanium.Event> | Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to |
Returns
- Type
- void
