Overview

Package notifications provides a notification system.

Notification Lifecycle

1. Create Notification with an ID and Message. 2. Set possible actions and save it. 3. When the user responds, the action is executed.

Example

// create notification
n := notifications.New("update-available", "A new update is available. Restart to upgrade.")
// set actions and save
n.AddAction("later", "Later").AddAction("restart", "Restart now!").Save()

// wait for user action
selectedAction := <-n.Response()
switch selectedAction {
case "later":
  log.Infof("user wants to upgrade later.")
case "restart":
  log.Infof("user wants to restart now.")
}

Types

type Action

type Action struct {
	// ID specifies a unique ID for the action. If an action is selected, the ID
	// is written to SelectedActionID and the notification is saved.
	// If the action type is not ActionTypeNone, the ID may be empty, signifying
	// that this action is merely additional and selecting it does not dismiss the
	// notification.
	ID string
	// Text on the button.
	Text string
	// Type specifies the action type. Implementing interfaces should only
	// display action types they can handle.
	Type ActionType
	// Payload holds additional data for special action types.
	Payload interface{}
}

Action describes an action that can be taken for a notification.

type ActionType added in v0.10.0

type ActionType string

ActionType defines a specific type of action.

type ActionTypeOpenSettingPayload added in v0.10.0

type ActionTypeOpenSettingPayload struct {
	// Key is the key of the setting.
	Key string
	// Profile is the scoped ID of the profile.
	// Leaving this empty opens the global settings.
	Profile string
}

ActionTypeOpenSettingPayload defines the payload for the OpenSetting Action Type.

type ActionTypeWebhookPayload added in v0.10.0

type ActionTypeWebhookPayload struct {
	// HTTP Method to use. Defaults to "GET", or "POST" if a Payload is supplied.
	Method string
	// URL to call.
	// If the URL is relative, prepend the current API endpoint base path.
	// If the URL is absolute, send request to the Portmaster.
	URL string
	// Payload holds arbitrary payload data.
	Payload interface{}
	// ResultAction defines what should be done with successfully returned data.
	// Must one of:
	// - `ignore`: do nothing (default)
	// - `display`: the result is a human readable message, display it in a success message.
	ResultAction string
}

ActionTypeWebhookPayload defines the payload for the WebhookPayload Action Type.

type Notification

type Notification struct {
	record.Base
	// EventID is used to identify a specific notification. It consists of
	// the module name and a per-module unique event id.
	// The following format is recommended:
	// 	<module-id>:<event-id>
	EventID string
	// GUID is a unique identifier for each notification instance. That is
	// two notifications with the same EventID must still have unique GUIDs.
	// The GUID is mainly used for system (Windows) integration and is
	// automatically populated by the notification package. Average users
	// don't need to care about this field.
	GUID string
	// Type is the notification type. It can be one of Info, Warning or Prompt.
	Type Type
	// Title is an optional and very short title for the message that gives a
	// hint about what the notification is about.
	Title string
	// Category is an optional category for the notification that allows for
	// tagging and grouping notifications by category.
	Category string
	// Message is the default message shown to the user if no localized version
	// of the notification is available. Note that the message should already
	// have any paramerized values replaced.
	Message string
	// ShowOnSystem specifies if the notification should be also shown on the
	// operating system. Notifications shown on the operating system level are
	// more focus-intrusive and should only be used for important notifications.
	// If the configuration option "Desktop Notifications" is switched off, this
	// will be forced to false on the first save.
	ShowOnSystem bool
	// EventData contains an additional payload for the notification. This payload
	// may contain contextual data and may be used by a localization framework
	// to populate the notification message template.
	// If EventData implements sync.Locker it will be locked and unlocked together with the
	// notification. Otherwise, EventData is expected to be immutable once the
	// notification has been saved and handed over to the notification or database package.
	EventData interface{}
	// Expires holds the unix epoch timestamp at which the notification expires
	// and can be cleaned up.
	// Users can safely ignore expired notifications and should handle expiry the
	// same as deletion.
	Expires int64
	// State describes the current state of a notification. See State for
	// a list of available values and their meaning.
	State State
	// AvailableActions defines a list of actions that a user can choose from.
	AvailableActions []*Action
	// SelectedActionID is updated to match the ID of one of the AvailableActions
	// based on the user selection.
	SelectedActionID string
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
