Titanium.Android.BigPictureStyle

proxyAndroidsince 5.4.0

Helper object for generating large-format notifications that include a large image attachment.

If the platform does not provide large-format notifications, this style helper has no effect. The user will always see the normal notification view.

This style object attaches to a Titanium.UI.Notification object and modifies its behavior.

Examples

Big picture style Example

This example will be use image that placed in one of the density-specific folder under Resources/android/images

var bigPictureStyle = Titanium.Android.createBigPictureStyle({
    bigPicture: "/images/bigPicture.png",
    bigContentTitle: "Title for big picture",
    summaryText: "Summary for big picture"
});

Create big image style notification

var notification = Titanium.Android.createNotification({
    contentTitle: 'Something Happened',
    contentText : 'Click to return to the application.',
    style: bigPictureStyle,
    time: Date.now()
});

Send the notification.

Titanium.Android.NotificationManager.notify(1, notification);

Properties 8

apiName

Stringsince Android 3.2.0, iPhone 3.2.0, iPad 3.2.0, macOS 9.2.0read-only

Inherited from Titanium.Proxy

The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.

bigContentTitle

String

Overrides Titanium.Android.Notification.contentTitle in the big form of the notification. This defaults to the value passed to Titanium.Android.Notification.contentTitle.

Default: <Titanium.Android.Notification.contentTitle>

bigLargeIcon

Number | String

Override the Titanium.Android.Notification.largeIcon when the big notification is shown.

If specified as a URL, the icon must be placed in one of the density-specific folders under Resources/android/images. For example, if your icon is called my_big_large_icon.png, you would create high- and medium-density versions of the icons with the following paths:

Resources/android/images/res-hdpi/my_big_large_icon.png
Resources/android/images/res-mdpi/my_big_large_icon.png

To access this icon, you'd use the URL '/images/my_big_large_icon.png'.

To access the same icon using an Android resource ID, place the icon in:

platform/android/res/drawable/my_big_large_icon.png

This icon's resource ID can be referenced through the Titanium.App.Android.R object:

icon: Ti.App.Android.R.drawable.my_big_large_icon,

See Titanium.App.Android.R for more information on accessing Android resources by ID.

bigPicture

Number | String | Titanium.Blob | Titanium.Filesystem.File

Provide the bitmap to be used as the payload for the BigPicture notification.

Image to display, defined using a local filesystem path, a File object, a remote URL, or a Blob object containing image data.

If there is a redirect and change in protocol, it will not follow. For example, from http to https and vice versa. See Java Bug Database for more information.

If specified as a local URL, the bigPicture must be placed in one of the density-specific folders under Resources/android/images. For example, if your bigPicture is called my_big_picture.png, you would create high- and medium-density versions of the bigPicture with the following paths:

Resources/android/images/res-hdpi/my_big_picture.png
Resources/android/images/res-mdpi/my_big_picture.png

To access this bigPicture, you'd use the URL '/images/my_big_picture.png'.

To access the same bigPicture using an Android resource ID, place the bigPicture in:

platform/android/res/drawable/my_big_picture.png

This bigPicture's resource ID can be referenced through the Titanium.App.Android.R object:

bigPicture: Ti.App.Android.R.drawable.my_big_picture,

See Titanium.App.Android.R for more information on accessing Android resources by ID.
