Everything is fine... But Notification doesn't show up.

[Taremeh]

I installed the plugin for Nativescript 2.4 (Android). So far I used the demo code and everything seemed fine.

I also got the console.log, that the Notification is scheduled. But there is no Notification showing up... And I don't get any errors...

Someone experiencing the same problem? Is there a solution?

  LocalNotifications.schedule([{
    id: 1,
    title: 'The title',
    body: 'Recurs every minute until cancelled',
  }]).then(
      function() {
        console.log("Notification scheduled");
      },
      function(error) {
        console.log("scheduling error: " + error);
      }
  )

Same issue for {NS} 2.5. Upgraded everything today and still no clue what's wrong... If I check currently scheduled Notifications, they're listed even there! But in the end, no Notifications pops up...

JS: Notification scheduled
JS: ID's: 0,1

You'll need to pass in the at property, otherwise the notification is triggered immediately and you won't see it as your app is already in the foreground.

@EddyVerbruggen Unfortunately that doesn't help:

LocalNotifications.schedule([{
        id: 61,
        title: 'The title',
        body: 'Recurs every minute until cancelled',
        at: new Date(new Date().getTime() + (5 * 1000)) // 5 seconds from now
    }]).then(
        function() {
            console.log("Notification scheduled");
        },
        function(error) {
            console.log("scheduling error: " + error);
        }
    );

Console says:

JS: Notification scheduled
JS: ID's: 0,1,61,59,60

(Notification 0, 1 => instant; 61 => 5 seconds from now; 59, 60 => 10 seconds from now). They're stuck somehow...

[EddyVerbruggen]

Can you please mail me your app so I can check it out?

[Taremeh]

It's actually on Github. I created a branch.

https://github.com/Taremeh/apphovenAlpha/tree/notification-plugin-issue

Here the notification code: https://github.com/Taremeh/apphovenAlpha/blob/notification-plugin-issue/apphovenAlpha/app/pages/home/home.component.ts#L38-L58

[EddyVerbruggen]

You branch doesn't compile because of this line:

Once that works, will it be easy and obvious to reproduce the issue?

And just checking: you did close your app within 5 seconds after scheduling that notification, right?

[Taremeh]

Unfortunately not... I deleted the composer (and even search component). Still the same issue.

Btw. Would it be possible to create a notification while the app is running?

[EddyVerbruggen]

I'm not sure what your answers refer to. Did you fix the branch so I can try and reproduce the issue?

And did you close the app within 5 sec after scheduling the notification?

Same problem on android i am using 2.4.3

[oncul]

Ok i tested on real device and its working. On genymotion emulator notifications not working.

[francorobles]

Hi @EddyVerbruggen, I am planning to use this. Is this already working? It doesn't seem to work on mine too.

[seusmanakram]

@Taremeh please help same issue notifications get scheduled but don't show up!

[Taremeh]

It's still a big pain. I could not get it to work properly... Unfortunately there is (still) no documentation about how to use & build native notifications with Nativescript... But maybe @EddyVerbruggen could provide some help? 😄 I'd still love to know how to create a notification, which persists until an app event drops it. (Not a scheduled one, but one that pops up while using the app).

@Taremeh @usmanakram1996 @francorobles I managed to get it working on my app by setting forceShowWhenInForeground: true, but I had to do some changes in local-notifications.ios.ts:182.

I have opened a PR with those changes, but it might take a while until we get them, as it looks like @EddyVerbruggen is now working on a major refactor on the Android part.

Tested it on real devices, not sure it would work in an iOS emulator.

[EddyVerbruggen]

Yeah that forceShowWhenInForeground is part of the refactor and not on npm yet.

[EddyVerbruggen]

Going to publish plugin version 3.0.0 in a minute.
