Preface
Notification API is a new desktop notification API in HTML5, which is used to display notification information to users. This notification is separated from the browser. Even if the user does not stay on the current tab page or even minimizes the browser, the notification information will still be displayed on top.
User permissions
If you want to display notification messages to users, you need to obtain user permissions, and the same domain name only needs to obtain permission once. Notification can only work with the permissions allowed by the user to prevent advertisements from certain websites from abusing Notification or otherwise affecting users. So how do you know whether the user is allowed or not?
Notification.permission This attribute is used to indicate the authorization status of the current notification display. Possible values include:
- ##default: The user's choice is not known, default.
- granted: Allowed by the user.
- denied: Denied by the user.
if(Notification.permission === 'granted'){
console.log('用户允许通知');}else if(Notification.permission === 'denied'){
console.log('用户拒绝通知');}else{
console.log('用户还没选择，去向用户申请权限吧');}Copy after login
Request permission
When the user has not selected yet, we need to request permission from the user. The Notification object provides the requestPermission() method to request the user's permission from the current source to display notifications.
The previous callback-based syntax has been deprecated (of course it can still be used in current browsers). The latest specification has updated this method to a promise-based syntax:
Notification.requestPermission().then(function(permission) {
if(permission === 'granted'){
console.log('用户允许通知');
}else if(permission === 'denied'){
console.log('用户拒绝通知');
}});Copy after login
Push notification
After obtaining user authorization, you can push notifications.
var notification = new Notification(title, options)
Copy after login
The parameters are as follows:
- title: The title of the notification
- options: Setting options for notifications (optional).
- body: The content of the notification.
- tag: An identification tag representing a notification. Only the same notification window will be opened with the same tag.
- icon: The URL of the icon to be displayed in the notification.
- HTML5 desktop notification Notification API usage: The URL of the HTML5 desktop notification Notification API usage to display in the notification.
- data: The data of the task type you want to associate with the notification.
- requireInteraction: The notification remains valid and does not close automatically. The default is false.
There are some other parameters, but there is no need to mention them here because they are unused or of no use.
var n = new Notification('状态更新提醒',{
body: '你的朋友圈有3条新状态，快去查看吧',
tag: 'linxin',
icon: 'http://blog.gdfengshuo.com/HTML5 desktop notification Notification API usages/avatar.jpg',
requireInteraction: true})Copy after login
The rendering of the notification message is as follows:
Close notification
From the above parameters It can be seen that there is no parameter used to configure the display duration. If I want it to automatically close after 3 seconds, I can call the close() method to close the notification.
var n = new Notification('状态更新提醒',{
body: '你的朋友圈有3条新状态，快去查看吧'})setTimeout(function() {
n.close();}, 3000);Copy after login
Event
The onclick attribute of the Notification interface specifies an event listener to receive the click event. When the notification window is clicked, the corresponding event will be triggered, such as opening a URL and guiding the user back to their own website.
var n = new Notification('状态更新提醒',{
body: '你的朋友圈有3条新状态，快去查看吧',
data: {
url: 'http://blog.gdfengshuo.com'
}})n.onclick = function(){
window.open(n.data.url, '_blank'); // 打开网址
n.close(); // 并且关闭通知}Copy after login
Application scenarios
As mentioned above, it is actually just for use. So where can it be used?
Most of the current website message reminders display the number of messages in the message center, and then send emails to tell users. There is nothing wrong with this process. However, for a user like me, when someone likes something or saves it, I have to send an email to remind me, and I always have to delete the email (obsessive-compulsive disorder). I find it quite annoying and even turn off the email reminder.
Of course, this does not mean that Notification should be used. After all, its function is completely different from that of email.
I think a news website is more suitable. When users browse news, real-time news can be pushed to users. Take Tencent Sports as an example, it uses the Notification API. A notification2017_v0118.js is introduced in the page. If you are interested, you can see how others use it maturely.
As soon as you enter the page, you will obtain authorization. At the same time, there will be a floating box on your page prompting you to allow authorization. If allowed, push notifications will start to be sent to you. However, when it closes the tab, the notification will also be turned off, because it listens to the page beforeunload event.
function addOnBeforeUnload(e) {
FERD_NavNotice.notification.close();}if(window.attachEvent){
window.attachEvent('onbeforeunload', addOnBeforeUnload);} else {
window.addEventListener('beforeunload', addOnBeforeUnload, false);}Copy after login
Compatibility
When it comes to compatibility, there are naturally a lot of them, and the performance of each browser will be slightly different. Almost all of them are supported on the mobile side, but luckily most of them on the PC side are supported, except for IE. So before using it, you need to check whether the browser supports Notification.
