The DMX Notifications plugin makes it easy for developers to create persistent notifications across sessions and screens.
Important: There are several privacy-related issues unsolved (see https://git.dmx.systems/dmx-plugins/dmx-notifications/-/issues/10). The current version is experimental and released for DEMO purposes only. Furthermore, the type definition should not be used as a template for other plugins (see https://git.dmx.systems/dmx-plugins/dmx-notifications/-/issues/12). The latest version does not resemble the feature of the DM 4 version yet (see https://git.dmx.systems/dmx-plugins/dmx-notifications/-/issues/11).
The use case is:
A user subscribes a topic. The user is notified when the topic is changed.
Actually the plugin provides:
- A Notification model (a Topic Type representing a message)
- A Subscription model (an Association Type for the configurations)
- A service to
- Manage subscriptions (subscribe/unsubscribe)
- Create notifications (persistent notifcations for all users who subscribed given item)
The following figure you find an overview of the type definitionst dmx-notifications installs in DMX.
A subscription is created using the "Subscribe" (resp. "Unsubscribe") context command on eligible topics.
When logged in you find your notifications behind the Envelope-icon in the upper right corner of the window. A badge indicates your unread notifications.
