The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.
Target
The notification API needs to be updated in WebOS-Ports. The requirements for this API are:
- Compatible with Freedesktop's notifications API http://www.galago-project.org/specs/notification/0.9/index.html
- Flexible
- Simple to use
- Include creation, update and deletion of notifications
One candidate for inspiration is Chrome's notifications API: see https://developer.chrome.com/apps/notifications .
Current status of the API
The current status is:
- The DBus notifications are currently supported.
- A very simple LS2 API is available: luna://org.webosports.luna/createNotification with the same arguments are for the DBus notification creation API.
Proposal
The current proposal is to integrate the ideas of the Chrome Notifications API (templates,...) while keeping a compatibility with Freedesktop's notifications.
