How to combine all app notifications together? - android

I want to show the app name on top and all the notifications of the app clubbed below it. I am receiving the notification from firebase and using this code:
val messagingStyle = Notification.MessagingStyle(person)
val remoteInput = RemoteInput.Builder(KEY_TEXT_REPLY).also {
it.setLabel(context.getString(R.string.type_to_reply))
}.build()
val mChannel =
NotificationChannel(channelId, newMessage.text, NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH)
mChannel.description = newMessage.text.toString()
mChannel.enableVibration(true)
val notifManager =
context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager
notifManager.createNotificationChannel(mChannel)
val statusBarNotification = notifManager.activeNotifications.firstOrNull {
it.id == channelId.toInt()
}
if (statusBarNotification == null) {
val builder: Notification.Builder = Notification.Builder(context, channelId)
val pendingIntent: PendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getActivity(
context,
channelId.toInt(),
navIntent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT or PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE
)
builder.setContentTitle(newMessage.text)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.my_logo) // required
.setContentText(newMessage.text) // required
.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_ALL)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.addAction(
getNotificationIntent(context, channelId.toInt(), remoteInput)
)
.setWhen(newMessage.timestamp)
.setStyle(messagingStyle.addMessage(newMessage))
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
.setGroup(MY_NOTIFICATIONS)
.setGroupSummary(true)
val notification = builder.build()
notifManager.notify(channelId.toInt(), notification)
} else {
var notificationBuilder = recoverBuilder(context, statusBarNotification.notification)
notificationBuilder.also {
val messageStyle = it.style as Notification.MessagingStyle
messageStyle.addMessage(newMessage.text, newMessage.timestamp, person)
it.style = messageStyle
}
notifManager.notify(channelId.toInt(), notificationBuilder.build())
}
This is what I want(like whatsapp)

But this is how it is appearing right now. all the notifications are seperate.

How to dismiss all desired notifications on Android?

I'm creating a chat app that sends and receives notifications through Firebase Cloud Functions. Let's suppose I have 2 friends, and each friend sends me 5 messages(5 notifications). When I open a chat in my chat list, I want all notifications for that chat to be dismissed and the others not.
Currently I can only dimiss 1 notification. If I get more than one notification the notificationManager.cancel(notificationId) doesn't work. I don't want to use notificationManager.cancelAll() as I just want to dismiss some notifications.
override fun onMessageReceived(remoteMessage: RemoteMessage) {
remoteMessage.notification.let { notification ->
val type = remoteMessage.data[NOTIFICATION_TYPE]
val notificationChannelId = getNotificationChannelId(type)
val soundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION)
val intent = Intent(this, HomeActivity::class.java)
val notificationIntent = setIntent(remoteMessage.data)
val stackBuilder: TaskStackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(this)
stackBuilder.addParentStack(HomeActivity::class.java)
stackBuilder.addNextIntent(intent)
stackBuilder.addNextIntent(notificationIntent)
val pendingIntent: PendingIntent =
stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT)
val notificationManager =
getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager
val notificationBuilder = NotificationCompat.Builder(this, notificationChannelId)
.setContentTitle(notification?.title ?: "")
.setContentText(notification?.body ?: "")
.setStyle(
NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
.bigText(notification?.body ?: "")
)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_stat)
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_DEFAULT)
.setSound(soundUri)
.setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(applicationContext, R.color.colorNotification))
.setVibrate(vibrationPattern)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
.setAutoCancel(true)
notify(remoteMessage.data, notificationManager, notificationBuilder)
}
}
private fun notify(
data: Map<String, String>,
notificationManager: NotificationManager,
notificationBuilder: NotificationCompat.Builder
) {
when (data[NOTIFICATION_TYPE]) {
CHAT_MSG -> {
if (data[NotificationUtils.CHAT_ID] != ChatActivity.currentChat) {
notificationManager.notify(
CHAT_MSG_NOTIFICATION_ID,
notificationBuilder.build()
)
}
}
FRIEND_REQUEST -> {
notificationManager.notify(
FRIEND_REQUEST_NOTIFICATION_ID,
notificationBuilder.build()
)
}
}
}
OnStart():
fun dismissNotifications(notificationId: Int) {
val notificationManager =
getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager
notificationManager.cancel(notificationId)
}
My thoughts is:
Save all notificationIds in map where:
key is userName/userId in message.
value is List of notificationId
When you need to clear all notifications you just ask you map and clear all that notificationIds for that userName/userId

How can I not receive notifications while I have a certain screen open? - Android

In my application I have several activities and one is chat. In this screen I have the ID of who is chatting with me and every time I send a message a push notification is sent with the message and the id of the person with whom I am chatting. While I'm chatting with this person I need to block notifications from them and only receive them if I don't have an open chat with that person. How do I do this? I'm using Firebase as a backend.
class MyFirebaseMessagingService : FirebaseMessagingService() {
override fun onMessageReceived(remoteMessage: RemoteMessage) {
remoteMessage.notification?.let { notification ->
val data = remoteMessage.data
val type = data["type"] // chat message,like etc
val id = data["id"] //userId
val notificationChannelId = getString(R.string.default_notification_channel_id)
val soundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION)
val intent = setIntent(remoteMessage).setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP)
val pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this,
0,
intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT)
val notificationManager = getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
val notificationChannel = NotificationChannel(notificationChannelId, CHANNEL_SPEEACHT, NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT)
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(notificationChannel)
}
val notificationBuilder = NotificationCompat.Builder(this, notificationChannelId)
.setContentTitle(notification.title ?: "")
.setContentText(notification.body ?: "")
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_stat)
.setSound(soundUri)
.setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(applicationContext, R.color.colorNotification))
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
notificationManager.notify(0, notificationBuilder.build())
}
}
I think this is not firebase-cloud-messaging related, because firebase-cloud-messaging is just a message channel, so you should do it in your own bussiness code.
A suggested way is that you can make a condition. if the activity is visable and the userid you received in onMessageReceived is the same as the userid you are chatting with, then you should not create your own notification in onMessageReceived function.

Android 10: No custom sound in notification

I'm creating a channel with custom sound. The notifications are correctly displayed but the sound played is still the default one.
Creation of the channel
val audioAttribute = AudioAttributes.Builder()
.setContentType(AudioAttributes.CONTENT_TYPE_SONIFICATION)
.setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_NOTIFICATION)
.build()
val sound = Uri.Builder().scheme(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE)
.authority(packageName)
.path(R.raw.notifsound.toString()).build()
alertChannel.apply {
enableVibration(true)
description = "Signal alert channel"
lockscreenVisibility = Notification.VISIBILITY_PUBLIC
setSound(sound, audioAttribute)
}
notificationManager.createNotificationChannels(listOf(locationNotificationChannel,gpsStatusChannel,alertChannel))
I checked the URI with this
(contentResolver as ContentResolver).openInputStream(sound)
And it can read the file.
I found the problem.
Once you create a notification channel, you can't change the sound of it.
So you have two solutions:
Uninstall the app and install again
Or change the notification channel id to create a new one with the right configuration.
Hope this help.
I solved the issue by uninstalling the app and reinstalling it
private fun sendNotification(remoteMessage: RemoteMessage) {
val fullScreenIntent = Intent(this, IncomingActivity::class.java).apply {
flags = Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP
putExtra(Constants.ROOM_ID, remoteMessage.data[Constants.ROOM_ID])
putExtra(Constants.REMOTE_MSG_INVITER_TOKEN, remoteMessage.data[Constants.REMOTE_MSG_INVITER_TOKEN])
}
val fullScreenPendingIntent: PendingIntent? = TaskStackBuilder.create(this).run {
// Add the intent, which inflates the back stack
addNextIntentWithParentStack(fullScreenIntent)
// Get the PendingIntent containing the entire back stack
getPendingIntent(0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT)
}
val audioAttributes = AudioAttributes.Builder()
.setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_NOTIFICATION_RINGTONE)
.build()
val notificationManager = getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
val notificationChannel = NotificationChannel(resources.getString(R.string.app_name), "Incoming call...", NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH)
notificationChannel.description = "Someone is calling you..."
notificationChannel.setSound(Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI, audioAttributes)
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(notificationChannel)
}
val notificationBuilder =
NotificationCompat.Builder(this, resources.getString(R.string.app_name))
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.icon)
.setContentTitle("Incoming call")
.setContentText("Someone is calling you...")
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_HIGH)
.setCategory(NotificationCompat.CATEGORY_CALL)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setSound(Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI)
.setChannelId(resources.getString(R.string.app_name))
.setContentIntent(fullScreenPendingIntent)
.setLargeIcon(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(resources, R.drawable.icon))
val incomingCallNotification = notificationBuilder.build()
notificationManager.notify(0, incomingCallNotification)
}

NotificationManagerCompat on Android Oreo

Is there a way to set channels on Android Oreo when using NotificationManagerCompat and NotificationCompat?
Since NotificationManagerCompat is just a wrapper class that makes life easier, you can create the channels normally:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
val name = getString(R.string.channel_title)
val description = getString(R.string.channel_description)
val importance = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH
val mChannel = NotificationChannel(CHANNEL_ID, name, importance)
mChannel.description = description
mChannel.enableLights(true)
mChannel.lightColor = Color.parseColor("#5B3C88")
mChannel.enableVibration(true)
mChannel.vibrationPattern = longArrayOf(100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 400, 300, 200, 400)
val manager = (context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager)
manager.createNotificationChannel(mChannel)
}
And then use the NotificationManagerCompat when you post the notifications, but don't forget to construct the notification using the new constructor:
NotificationCompat.Builder(context, CHANNEL_ID)
Using NotificationManagerCompat with AndroidX is the recommended way.
NotificationManagerCompat now supports Notification channels. The new version Added Notification channels methods to NotificationManagerCompat so developers can use only NotificationManagerCompat when working with notifications.
For Java, include the following in your build.gradle file
implementation 'androidx.core:core:1.2.0'
For Kotlin, include the following instead of the above dependency in your build.gradle file
implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.2.0'
To display a notificaiton, you will have to do the following
Create and register notification channel.
Create a notification.
Show the notification
The snippets below are in Kotlin, but you can also use Java if you want.
1. Create and register a notification channel.
Notification channels provide a common visual and auditory experience for notifications of a similar type. Since their introduction in API 26, you are now required to set a channel for a notification, otherwise they will not display on newer versions of Android.
So define a helper method as shown below to create a notification channel for you.
//define your channel id
val CHANNEL_ID = "com.yourpackagename.your_channel_id"
//create notification channel for android Oreo and above devices.
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 26) {
val channel = NotificationChannel(CHANNEL_ID , "Your channel name", NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT)
NotificationManagerCompat.from(this).createNotificationChannel(channel)
}
2. Create a notification.
Use the NotificationCompat.Builder to create a Notificaiton. Please note that the CHANNEL_ID is passed to the builder.
var builder = NotificationCompat.Builder(this, CHANNEL_ID)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification_icon)
.setContentTitle("My notification")
.setContentText("Much longer text that cannot fit one line...")
.setStyle(NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
.bigText("Much longer text that cannot fit one line..."))
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_DEFAULT)
3. Show the notification
To make the notification appear, call NotificationManagerCompat.notify(), passing it a unique ID for the notification and the result of NotificationCompat.Builder.build()
NotificationManagerCompat.from(this).notify(notificationId, builder.build())
That's all :)
I usually use this class to manage notification channels:
class NotificationManager(private val context: Context) {
companion object {
private val CHANNEL_ID = "YOUR_CHANNEL_ID"
private val CHANNEL_NAME = "Your human readable notification channel name"
private val CHANNEL_DESCRIPTION = "description"
}
#RequiresApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.O)
fun getMainNotificationId(): String {
return CHANNEL_ID
}
#RequiresApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.O)
fun createMainNotificationChannel() {
val id = CHANNEL_ID
val name = CHANNEL_NAME
val description = CHANNEL_DESCRIPTION
val importance = android.app.NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_LOW
val mChannel = NotificationChannel(id, name, importance)
mChannel.description = description
mChannel.enableLights(true)
mChannel.lightColor = Color.RED
mChannel.enableVibration(true)
val mNotificationManager = context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as android.app.NotificationManager
mNotificationManager.createNotificationChannel(mChannel)
}
}
Then you can use util like this
fun createNotificationCompatBuilder(context: Context): NotificationCompat.Builder {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
return NotificationCompat.Builder(context, NotificationManager(context).mainNotificationId)
} else {
return NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
}
}
This way you can use it in any place of your application with signature just like you have used before and you can easily change it in case of future changes.
