AlertObserverInterface is not notified when new ALERT/ALARM is set #1253

Closed julianorqti closed 5 years ago

When a new alarm is set up AlertObserver objects inside AlertsCapabilityAgent class are not notified about that. It is possible to enhance that interface to receive a notification every time a new ALARM is set, that way platform can take some action for that alert? For example, display alarm info on a screen. New method for AlertObserverInterface should have Alarm type and time that it is scheduled to play.

Thank you, Juliano RIbeiro

What version of the AVS Device SDK are you using?

1.11

Hi @julianorqti,

The alertType parameter has been added to the AlertObserverInterface in 1.12. The duration is not present, but I am curious what your use case for that is?

julianorqti commented 5 years ago

Hi Kjkh,

I want to know at what time alarm needs to be triggered to show case that in a display for instance. I want to let user know that Alarms is set and it is configure to X:YY:ZZ

Thank you, Juliano Ribeiro

Hi there, sorry for our late response on this. Are you still having issues?

julianorqti commented 5 years ago

Hi,

I want a way to be able to be notified on sampleApp if a alarm has been configured and it is yet to start. Based on AlertObserverInterface.h, I dont see any implementation/callback for that.

Is there a way to achieve that?

No, not currently with AlertObserverInterface. I'll make an internal ticket for our team to consider this feature request for the alert observer.

I'm also going to close this issue for now but definitely feel free to re-open if you have other questions or concerns regarding this.
