Only for android local notification

Diverge from https://github.com/neson/react-native-system-notification, remove remote notification, reduce code and dependencies, keep simple and small.

安卓本地通知

从https://github.com/neson/react-native-system-notification分离而来。 鉴于国内环境，去掉远程推送通知功能，以及相关的代码和依赖，方便安装和使用。

import React, { DeviceEventEmitter } from 'react-native';
import Notification from 'react-native-pure-notification';

// Send a simple notification
Notification.create({ subject: 'Hey', message: 'Yo! Hello world.' });

// Listen to notification-clicking events
Notification.addListener('press', function(e) {
  console.log(e);
});

// Custom payload for notifications
Notification.create({
  subject: 'Notification With Payload',
  message: 'This is a notification that contains custom payload.',
  payload: { number: 1, what: true, someAnswer: '42' }
});

// Receive the payload on notification events
Notification.addListener('press', function(e) {
  console.log(e.payload);  // => { number: 1, what: true, someAnswer: '42' }
});

// Customize notification
Notification.create({
  subject: 'Notification With Custom Icon',
  message: 'This is a notification with a specified icon.',
  smallIcon: 'ic_alert'
});

// Scheduled notifications
Notification.create({
  subject: 'Scheduled Notification',
  message: 'This notification will show on every Friday morning at 8:30 AM, starts at 2015/9/9 and end after 10 times.',
  sendAt: new Date(2015, 9, 9, 8, 30),
  repeatEvery: 'week',
  count: 10
});

Installation

• Run npm install react-native-pure-notification --save to install using npm.

• Add the following two lines to android/settings.gradle:

include ':react-native-pure-notification'
project(':react-native-pure-notification').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-pure-notification/android')

• Edit android/app/build.gradle and add the annoated lines as below:

...

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
    compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1"
    compile "com.facebook.react:react-native:0.16.+"
    compile project(':react-native-pure-notification')  // <- Add this line
}

• Edit android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml and add the annoated lines as below:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.reactnativeproject">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_TASKS" />                       <!-- <- Add this line -->
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"/>           <!-- <- Add this line -->
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE"/>                          <!-- <- Add this line -->

    <application
      android:allowBackup="true"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

...

      <activity android:name="com.facebook.react.devsupport.DevSettingsActivity" />
      <receiver android:name="com.exease.react.notification.NotificationEventReceiver" />   <!-- <- Add this line -->
      <receiver android:name="com.exease.react.notification.NotificationPublisher" />       <!-- <- Add this line -->
      <receiver android:name="com.exease.react.notification.SystemBootEventReceiver">       <!-- <- Add this line -->
        <intent-filter>                                                                   <!-- <- Add this line -->
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"></action>           <!-- <- Add this line -->
        </intent-filter>                                                                  <!-- <- Add this line -->
      </receiver>                                                                         <!-- <- Add this line -->
    </application>

</manifest>

The RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED permission is used to re-register all scheduled notifications after reboot. Requesting VIBRATE permission is required if you want to make the device vibrate while sending notifications.

• Edit MainActivity.java (usually at android/app/src/main/java/com/<project-name>/MainActivity.java) and add the annoated lines as below:

...

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;

import com.facebook.react.ReactActivity;
import com.facebook.react.ReactPackage;
import com.facebook.react.shell.MainReactPackage;

import com.exease.react.notification.NotificationPackage;    // <- Add this line

public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {

...

    @Override
    protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
        return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
            ...
            new NotificationPackage()                  // <- Add this line
        );
    }

...

Usage

Creating Notifications

Just do:

Notification.create({
  id: 1337,
  subject: 'Notification With Payload',
  message: 'This is a notification that contains custom payload.',
  smallIcon: 'ic_launcher',
  autoClear: true,
  payload: { number: 1, what: true, someAnswer: '42' }
});

All functions of this module will return promises with the notification object handing in. So you can get the data of the notification and do anything that is needed, like this:

Notification.create({ message: 'Testing.' }).then(function(notification) {
  console.log(notification);
  console.log(notification.id);
});

All available options on a notification are listed below:

Basic

id (number) The unique ID of this notification. It will be randomly chosen if not specified.

subject (string) The notification subject. Defaults to the application name on Android.

message (string) The message showen in the notification.

  delay: 10000
});

Handle Notification Click Event

Register a listener on sysNotificationClick events to handle notification clicking:

Notification.addListener('press', function(e) {
  console.log(e);
});

The action and payload of the notification can be retrieved on these events:

Notification.send({ message: 'Message', action: 'ACTION_NAME', payload: { data: 'Anything' } });

Notification.addListener('press', function(e) {
  switch (e.action) {
    case 'ACTION_NAME':
      console.log(`Action Triggered! Data: ${e.payload.data}`);
      break;

    case 'ANOTHER_ACTION_NAME':
      console.log(`Another Action Triggered! Data: ${e.payload.data}`);
      break;
  }
});

Once you no longer need to listen to sysNotificationClick events de-register the listener functions with:

Notification.removeAllListeners('press');

Manage Scheduled Notifications

Sometimes you'll need to get the scheduled notifications (which has delay or sendAt set up) that you had created before. You can use Notification.getIDs() to retrieve an array of IDs of available (i.e. will be send in the future) scheduled notifications.

Notification.getIDs().then(function(ids) {
  console.log(ids);  // Array of ids
});

and use Notification.find(notificationID) to get data of an notification.

Notification.find(notificationID).then(function(notification) {
  console.log(notification);
});

or just cancel it with Notification.delete(notificationID):

Notification.delete(notificationID);

Want to cancel all scheduled notifications set by your app? Sure:

Notification.deleteAll();

To update a scheduled notification, just use Notification.create() with the same id.

Clearing Notifications

When you want to clear a notification from the system statusbar, just use:

Notification.clearAll();

or:

Notification.clear(notificationID);
