A simple HTML5 notification for Angular 1

1. Go to your project directory using your command line tool then install the project using npm

npm install angular-desktop-notification

2. Include angular.js and angular-desktop-notification.js to your index page.

<script type="text/javascript" src="angular.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="angular-desktop-notification.js"></script>

3. Add the ngDesktopNotification module to you application.

angular.module('myApp', ['ngDesktopNotification']);

4. You can now use the injectable service 'desktopNotification'.

angular.module('myApp').controller(function (desktopNotification) {
  desktopNotification.show('My Notification');
});

5. You can also set the default app-wide configuration for desktopNotification

angular.module('myApp').config(function (desktopNotificationProvider) {
  desktopNotificationProvider.config({
    autoClose: false,
    showOnPageHidden: true
  });
});

A simple usage would be, request the permission and display the notification in the success callback

desktopNotification.requestPermission().then(function (permission) {
  // User allowed the notification
  desktopNotification.show('Hello', {
    body: 'I am an HTML5 notification',
    onClick: function () {
      // Handle click event
    }
  });
}, function (permission) {
  // User denied the notification
});

This method returns true if the browser supports the Notification API, false otherwise

desktopNotification.isSupported();

This method will get the current permission set in the browser which could be one of the ff.

• desktopNotification.permissions.default
• desktopNotification.permissions.denied
• desktopNotification.permissions.granted

desktopNotification.currentPermission();

This method returns a $q promise, if the user allowed the notification the successCallback will be executed, errorCallback will be executed otherwise

desktopNotification.requestPermission().then(successCallback, errorCallback);

This method will display the notification using the parameter values

• title - should be a string
• options - should be an object with the ff. properties
  • options.body - the message of the notification
  • options.icon - a string path of an icon, jpg and etc.
  • options.autoClose - a boolean property that will close the notification after the duration specified (Defaults to true)
  • options.duration - an integer that will set the seconds before the notification is automatically closed (Defaults to 5)
  • options.showOnPageHidden - a boolean property that will only show the notification if the page is hidden (Defaults to false)
  • options.onClick - a function that will trigger when the notification is clicked (Defaults to none)

desktopNotification.show(title, options);

Note: Please see all the available parameters here at the [official documentation] (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/API/notification#Instance_properties)

Angular Desktop Notification is not supported in all browsers.
Please see [supported browser versions] (http://caniuse.com/#feat=notifications) for more information on the official support specification.

Also, only Chrome allows the desktop notification to persist, if and only if, the user hovers on it. Please check the [other browsers closing behavior] (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Notifications_API/Using_the_Notifications_API#Closing_notifications).
