I have a WebExtension for Mozilla, which notifies me with the desktop notification function.
It works exactly how I want, but Firefox will close the notification automatically after X seconds. Is it possible to display the notification until the user clicks on it?
The thing I did is to close and reopen the notification every 5 seconds, so the user has to click on it to close it permanently.
This looks like this:
// This is the notification function
function notifyMeFunction() {
var notification = new Notification('Alert', {
icon: chrome.extension.getURL('icons.png'),
body: "New Notification",
tag: "DesktopNotification",
});
notification.onclick = function(event) {
notificationClicked = true;
}
notification.onclose = function(event) {
notificationClicked = true;
}
}
// Function which will self-open every 5 seconds
function notifyMe() {
if (notificationClicked == false) {
notifyMeFunction();
setTimeout(notifyMe, 5000);
} else {
notificationClicked = false;
}
}
Any ideas how to set the display time to something like "must interact"?
