I am currently working on an application which will continuously get sensors data from a web server and display it in text Views. I am using an Asynctask to get the data and the OnprogressUpdate method continuously fetch new data and display it. Whenever the sensor data is greater than 70, a notification is sent.
The problem I am having is that only one notification is sent when the data is greater than 70 and when it decreases and re-increases no notification is sent.
When I remove the boolean value, my phone keep on sending notifications and this is annoying. Is there a way when the data is >70 , it send a notification and when it decreases and again increases, another notification is sent?
Note that the phone will be receiving 2 sensors data and it will continuously display the data in text Views.
Below is the code for the OnProgressMethod. Hope that you guys can help me pls. Thanks.
OnProgressUpdate method:
private boolean alreadyDisplayedNotification = false;
protected void onProgressUpdate(byte[]... values) {
super.onProgressUpdate(values);
String command=new String(values[0]);//get the String from the recieved bytes
String[] parts= command.split(",");
String part1=parts[0];
String part2=parts[1];
temp.setText(part1);
humi.setText(part2);
if(Float.parseFloat(part2)>70.00 && !alreadyDisplayedNotification)
{
NotificationCompat.Builder builder=new NotificationCompat.Builder(this.context);
builder.setContentTitle("AM Home Automation");
builder.setContentText("humidity is high");
builder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
builder.setTicker("alert");
builder.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_ALL);
//builder.setSound(Uri.parse("android.resource://"+getPackageName()+"/"+R));
notificationManager = (NotificationManager)context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
notificationManager.notify(1, builder.build());
//notificationID--;
alreadyDisplayedNotification=true;
}
}
