Notification component

Notification component helps developer to create functionality for send notification system.

Concept

Parts of logic:

• Context
• Manager
• Extension
• Type
• Rule
• Notifier

Main Flow:

1. Client create Context and set some parameter for notification, specify Type of notification(string name or object) and send this info to Manager

$type = new NotificationType();
$context = new Context(['parameter' => 'parameter value']);
$notificationManager->notifyType($type, $context);

or

$context = new Context(['parameter' => 'parameter value']);
$notificationManager->notifyType(NotificationType::getName(), $context);

2. Manager prepare Type and Context via Extension(if Extension is specified for Manager)
3. Type build Rule/Rules(some simple info for Notifier)
4. Notifier accept Rule(parameters) and send real notification. For example: Email Notifier accept parameters(Rule) for email sending(from, to, cc,text) and send via smtp mail

Manager

This is a service for send notification, has 2 public methods for send notification:

• notify(string $name, Context $context = null) - will get Type from TypeRegistry
• notifyType(TypeInterface $type, Context $context = null) - use accepted Type

Extension

Context

Type

Rule

Notifier
