Android Local Notification and Scheduling
Bài đăng này đã không được cập nhật trong 4 năm
Intro
This simple app will show you how to integrate Notifications into your app. The app also demostrate how one can use AlarmManager to shcedule a notification at a particular time. It mostly is focused on local notification but it will cover the essentials to get you started. Without further ado lets dive in.
First create a simple android demo app. I call this LocalNotificationApp and import the necessary library in gradle.
dependencies {
......
implementation "com.android.support:support-compat:28.0.0"
}
Next we open the activity_main.xml and edit to include our layout design.
activity_main.xml

In this activity view we have added an EditText to input the notification message, some swicthbuttons to customize the notification and one for scheduling a notification.
View MainActivity
Next open the MainActivity.java. In this class we will implement the features necessary to demostrate our notification.

Notice the Intent "notificationIntent"? Here i am sending this notificationIntent in a pendingIntent to a broadcast receiver class MyNotificationPublisher. This class which we will define below will recieve our data passed in the intent and initiate the notification only after the alarm countdwon ends.The AlarmManager gets the current time on the device and adds the initial difference we get from the date and time selected by the user. This value is converted to milliseconds and then the countdown begind. Even when app is minimised or closed when this timer ends the pending event is fired and our notification is shown. Now lets create the MyNotificationPublisher class.
MyNotificationPublisher
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.media.RingtoneManager;
import android.net.Uri;
import androidx.core.app.NotificationCompat;
public class MyNotificationPublisher extends BroadcastReceiver {
public static String NOTIFICATION_ID = "notification_id";
public static String KEY_MESSAGE = "key_message";
public static String KEY_TITLE = "key_title";
public static String KEY_EXPAND = "key_expand";
public static String KEY_SOUND = "key_sound";
public static String KEY_MULTIPLE = "key_multiple";
public static String CHANNEL_ID = "channel_id";
public static String APP_NAME = "NotificationApp";
@Override
public void onReceive(final Context context, Intent intent) {
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
int notificationId = intent.getIntExtra(NOTIFICATION_ID, 0);
String message = intent.getStringExtra(KEY_MESSAGE);
String title = intent.getStringExtra(KEY_TITLE);
boolean isEnabledExpand = intent.getBooleanExtra(KEY_EXPAND, false);
boolean isEnableSound = intent.getBooleanExtra(KEY_SOUND, false);
boolean isEnabledMultiple = intent.getBooleanExtra(KEY_MULTIPLE, false);
NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, CHANNEL_ID)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher_background)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setContentText(message)
.setChannelId(APP_NAME)
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_DEFAULT);
if (isEnabledExpand)
builder.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
.bigText(message));
if (isEnableSound) {
Uri alarmSound = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
builder.setSound(alarmSound);
}
if (isEnabledMultiple) {
builder.setGroup(APP_NAME);
builder.setGroupSummary(true);
}
notificationManager.notify(notificationId, builder.build());
}
}
Using the intent data gotten from the MainActivity intent, we can get the boolean values of the switchbuttons and text entered in the message field to create and customize our notification heads up according to user preference. Before we run the app lets declare the reciever in the Manifest file.
AndroidManifest.xml
<receiver android:name=".MyNotificationPublisher"/>
</application>
And we done. Run the app.
Note: The AlarmManager can be used not only for scheduling a notification but one can readily use it for other scheduled task in an app. Happy Coding!!! For further customizations and explorations you can refer the official Google page here>>
