Android notifications will not disable #214

Open aaronkaz opened 4 years ago

aaronkaz commented 4 years ago

This option:

notification: {
  enabled: false,
},

seems to make no difference whether I toggle true or false. I see Silent Notifications (SDK version 29) for all uploads regardless of the value. Any ideas how to turn these off?

As an alternative, I also tried:

notification: {
  enabled: true,
  autoclear: true
}

and still no effect.

Same here. @aaronkaz did you solve this issue?

aaronkaz commented 3 years ago

@dolphinflow86 No, I never did. This wasn't the only big issue I ran into, so I've just abandoned using this package altogether.

On Android versions >= 8.0 Oreo it is required by Google's policy to display a notification when a background service (such as uploading a file in the background) runs

Same, Notifications show regardless of the notification.enabled parameter value.

bneigher commented 3 years ago

@reime005 isn't that only the case if you're using the Android File Manager? It should still be possible to do this with DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION permission. Otherwise we would see even native apps going nuts when we upload files via apps

Does anyone know how to contribute to the android native code here? I for the life of me can't figure out where to look to fix this

reime005 commented 3 years ago

@bneigher I don't think it is fixable...but the android code is in the /android folder if you mean that

mar-bi commented 3 years ago

I disabled it (it's kind of "disabled" - notification is removed right after a successful upload. The user almost doesn't notice it) with this combination of parameters:

notification: {
        enabled: true,
        autoClear: true,
      },

Notifications not autoClear, is persisted
