NotificationLibrary

Overview

The "Custom WPF Notifications" project aims to provide a flexible and user-friendly notification system for WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) applications. This system leverages the NotificationLibrary, a specialized class named Notification, to create and display custom notifications within your WPF application.

Key Features:

Customizable Notifications: The heart of the system is the Notification class, which allows you to create notifications with the following customizable properties:

• Title: Set a title for your notification.
• Message: Provide a detailed message to convey information.
• Initials: Display user initials or an identifier.
• DBID: Attach a unique identifier to each notification.
• Application Name: Specify the application name to associate with the notification.
• Color: Choose a custom color for the notification background.
• Application Icon: Add an application icon to make notifications easily identifiable.
• Tagging Notifications: Notifications are tagged for easy management and identification. Each notification is assigned a unique tag based on its hash code.

Getting Started:

Inserting Notifications:

BitmapImage applicationIcon = new BitmapImage(new Uri("icon.png")); // Replace "icon.png" with the path to your application's icon image.

// Define the application name, title, message, initials, a unique identifier (dbid), and the background color for the notification.
string applicationName = "Your Application Name";
string title = "Notification Title";
string message = "Notification message goes here.";
string initials = "AB";
string dbid = "unique_identifier";
Color color = Colors.Blue; // Customize the color as needed.

// Insert the notification using the Notification class
Notification.InsertNotification(applicationIcon, applicationName, title, message, initials, dbid, color);

Setting Callback for Click Event:

You can define a callback function to handle what happens when a notification is clicked. For example:

Notification.SetCallBack((dbid) =>
{
    // Handle the click event here, using the unique identifier (dbid) to identify the notification.
    // You can perform actions like opening a related window or taking the user to a specific location in your application.
    Console.WriteLine($"Notification with DBID {dbid} was clicked.");
});
