Notification Timer none dosent work

[fischi87]

Hello guys I trigger a notification with a message but the timer dosend work. Here my simple code snippet:

{
    commandId: "Finish",
    notiID: "SHOW_ALERT",
    notiPayload: { type: 'notification', message: 'Der Monitor ist eingeschaltet.', timer: 'none'}
  },

the notification shows already fine but after 2 sek is not to see anymore. I want no timers the notification is always on. I hope u can understand me. I tried already with 0 but still doesn’t work.

thanks

@fischi87 notification has to time out, either the notification timer value or the display_time value

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 the doc says do not specify timer

the doc ‘none’ answer means not specified by default

[fischi87]

@sdetweil

do u have a idea how can i set none timer so the notification will display until i cancel it by my self?

with my code the notification is displayed just 3 sek.

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 just don’t specify the timer value

[fischi87]

@sdetweil how is it possible the make a notification what will display without a timer? i want show a notification and want cancel this notification by my self where my next question is, how can i cancel a notification, is there a way for it? like the alert.

@fischi87 just don’t add the timer: value in the notification you send

[fischi87]

@sdetweil this dont work, it displaed just 3 sek wihout the timer.

@fischi87 the doc says, if you don’t specify timer in a notification type, then the config option display_time will be used (and defaults to 3.5 seconds, 3500ms)

if you use an alert type , then no timer value will cause the message to be displayed til removed

note one has a type in the payload (notification type) and one does not (alert type)

so your notification should be

{
    commandId: "Finish",
    notiID: "SHOW_ALERT",
    notiPayload: {  message: 'Der Monitor ist eingeschaltet.' }
  },

ur are right for the alert but with the type notification (SHOW_ALERT with type = notification) are 2 different things. if i send a show alert without a type it displed me the alert with blur background and so on and with the type: notification it shows me a little box with my message and this notification canceled after 3 sek. i didnt set a timer or a display_time, the alert shows as long i want but the notification canceld alter 3 sek. this is my problem!

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 yes, the doc says

if you don’t specify timer in a notification type, then the config option

display_time 

will be used (and defaults to 3.5 seconds, 3500ms)

so, add a new property to the alert module config:{} block
(if it doesn’t have a config:{} block, add one)

 display_time: 7*24*60*60*1000  // 7 days in milliseconds

[fischi87]

@sdetweil

and how can i cancel before the timer (7days) finished?

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 you have to send another notification, read the doc

[fischi87]

@sdetweil

I read it already 100 times but nothing will work. Sorry is there a issue with the Modul? I think i dont ger also no updatenotifications?

Greedings

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 come on.

send the HIDE_ALERT notifications

[fischi87]

@sdetweil

Sorry i think we Talk for different things. With the alert it works but not with the notification. I will See that i can show u a picture later maybe u will understand what i mean!

For now thanks for it time!

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 notification has to time out, either the notification timer value or the display_time value

[fischi87]

@sdetweil

[sdetweil]

@fischi87 one could always submit an enhancement request issue to the MM github page…
