I have an app that schedules a bunch of notifications (user has to answer questionnaires) locally using AlarmManager. The notification should show at certain points in the future.
I schedule the notifications like this:
private void scheduleNotification(Notification notification, int delay, int scheduleId, int notificationId) {
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(context, NotificationPublisher.class);
notificationIntent.putExtra(NotificationPublisher.NOTIFICATION_ID, notificationId);
notificationIntent.putExtra(NotificationPublisher.INTENT, notification);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, scheduleId, notificationIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, delay);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent);
}
The intent is received by a BroadcastReceiver that calls notify on the notification attached to the intent.
public class NotificationPublisher extends BroadcastReceiver {
public static String NOTIFICATION_ID = "notification-id";
public static String INTENT = "notification";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.hasExtra(INTENT)) {
NotificationManagerCompat notificationManager = NotificationManagerCompat.from(context);
Notification notification = intent.getParcelableExtra(INTENT);
int id = intent.getIntExtra(NOTIFICATION_ID, 0);
notificationManager.notify(id, notification);
}
}
}
This works fine so far. The problem that I'm facing is that I only want to show the notification if the app is currently not open/shown. If it's open I want to show an AlertDialog instead.
I know that it might be a better idea to put only the plain content of the notification into the intent and only build it when it should be displayed and I want to refactor that later on.
My main problem is, how do I determine in the onReceive of my broadcast receiver if the app is currently showing to decide if a notification or an alert should be displayed?
Or is there an entirely different approach that might work better (for example using WorkManager)?
I think you can handle it on your BroadcastReceiver
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (isForeground(context))
// AlertDialog
else
// Notification
}
public boolean isForeground(Context mContext) {
ActivityManager activityManager = (ActivityManager)this.getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
List<ActivityManager.AppTask> tasks = activityManager.getAppTasks();
if (!tasks.isEmpty()) {
ComponentName topActivity = tasks.get(0).getTaskInfo().topActivity;
return topActivity.getPackageName().equals(mContext.getPackageName());
}
return true;
}

I have an app that defines a Geofence location in an Activity called SearchSchool. I then implemented a BroadCastReceiver extension in another class to listen when user enters the geolocation and when he leaves it. I seem to have done everything correctly except the part where am supposed to send a notification to user from the BroadcastReceiverClass to the SearchSchool Activity which is an extension of AppCompatActivity class.
Here is the code in the SearchSchool activity that defines the Geofence builder...
public class Search_School extends AppCompatActivity {
PendingIntent geofencePendingIntent;
private GeofencingClient geofencingClient;
List<Geofence> geofences = new ArrayList<>();
//replace with real latitude and longitude of your geofence
//define the longitude and latitude of the geofence and radius
private double lat = 37.8136;
double lon = 74.0060;
private float radius = 100;
private long EXPIRATION_TIME = 10000;
#Override
protected void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
geofencingClient = LocationServices.getGeofencingClient(this);
geofences.add(new Geofence.Builder()
.setRequestId("MyGeofence")
.setCircularRegion(lat, lon, radius)
.setExpirationDuration(EXPIRATION_TIME).
setTransitionTypes(Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER | Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_EXIT)
.build());
//add a geofence to the client
geofencingClient.addGeofences(getGeofencingRequest(), getGeofencePendingIntent())
.addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Void>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Geofence added with success",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}).addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
#Override
public void onFailure(#NonNull Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(),"Geofence addtion failed",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
//create a geofence request
private GeofencingRequest getGeofencingRequest() {
GeofencingRequest.Builder builder =new GeofencingRequest.Builder();
builder.setInitialTrigger(GeofencingRequest.INITIAL_TRIGGER_ENTER);
builder.addGeofences(geofences);
return builder.build();
}
//Create a geofence pendingRequest
private PendingIntent getGeofencePendingIntent() {
// Reuse the PendingIntent if we already have it.
if (geofencePendingIntent != null) {
return geofencePendingIntent;
}
Intent intent = new Intent(this, GeofenceBroadcastReceiver.class);
// We use FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT so that we get the same pending intent back when
// calling addGeofences() and removeGeofences().
geofencePendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.
FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
return geofencePendingIntent;
}
}
Here is the BroadCastReeceiver class for detecting when user has entered the geofence and should send a notification to SearchSchoolactivity when it occurs
package com.example.fastuniforms;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;
import com.google.android.gms.location.Geofence;
import com.google.android.gms.location.GeofenceStatusCodes;
import com.google.android.gms.location.GeofencingEvent;
import java.util.List;
import static android.content.ContentValues.TAG;
public class GeofenceBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
// ...
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
GeofencingEvent geofencingEvent = GeofencingEvent.fromIntent(intent);
if (geofencingEvent.hasError()) {
String errorMessage = GeofenceStatusCodes
.getStatusCodeString(geofencingEvent.getErrorCode());
Log.e(TAG, errorMessage);
return;
}
// Get the transition type.
int geofenceTransition = geofencingEvent.getGeofenceTransition();
// Test that the reported transition was of interest.
if (geofenceTransition == Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER ||
geofenceTransition == Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_EXIT) {
// Get the geofences that were triggered. A single event can trigger
// multiple geofences.
List<Geofence> triggeringGeofences = geofencingEvent.getTriggeringGeofences();
// Get the transition details as a String.
String geofenceTransitionDetails = getGeofenceTransitionDetails(
this,
geofenceTransition,
triggeringGeofences
);
// I havea problem creating a notification method in a non Activity class
sendNotification(geofenceTransitionDetails);
Log.i(TAG, geofenceTransitionDetails);
} else {
// Log the error.
Log.e(TAG,"An error occurred, try again in a little bit");
}
}
//i have a major problem here getting the details and sending them
private String getGeofenceTransitionDetails(GeofenceBroadcastReceiver geofenceBroadcastReceiver, int geofenceTransition, List<Geofence> triggeringGeofences) {
}
}
I have a problem with the two areas highlighted in the second class, please help me make the getGeofenceTransitionDetailsand the ``sendNotification` methods work Thank You
I am developing a simple android app that manages events(An event contains a name, a description, and a date). For example: Somebody's birthday or something like that.
I want a canvas to pop up by itself at the specified date(even if I'm not in the application). I managed to create a Toast using AlarmManager and BroadcastReceiver which pop ups automatically at the specified date. But I can only write text to a Toast.
Is there any way to create a canvas that will pop up similar to a Toast?
My alarm manager:
AlarmManager alarms = (AlarmManager)this.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter("ALARM_ACTION");
registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
Intent intent = new Intent("ALARM_ACTION");
intent.putExtra("param", "It's your mom's birthday!");
PendingIntent operation = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
alarms.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis()+1000,operation) ;
And my Receiver class:
public class Receiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
//I want to replace the Toast with a canvas.
Toast.makeText(context, intent.getStringExtra("param"), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
I've been using the Google Location Services API with Geofences. I can successfully catch Geofence transitions and I receive notifications when I enter and exit Geofences. However, I do not know how to make a Geofence transition make GUI and Data changes to the app.
For an example, if the app is open, I want a small toast to appear. I also need my app to generate a new geofence and discard the old one (but so far I'm only using a set of hardcoded geofences).
But so far, I do not understand how I can interact with my app from the GeofenceTransitionsEventService.java (which is where I "catch" the intents and create the notifications).
Below is my code (now edited, but still not working):

I think these are the only classes I need to show you here for you to be able to help. Otherwise tell me what else to include.
You can use ResultReceiver to send data back to Activity or Fragment
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/ResultReceiver.html
its send method would allow to add resultCode and Bundle to send data back to class which implemented the receiver.
From your Activity or Fragment, you will pass an instance of receiver to the IntentService. Such as,
Intent intent = new Intent(context, GeofenceTransitionsIntentService.class);
intent.putExtra(Constants.RECEIVER, receiver);
activity.startService(intent);
Now in your IntentService class, you would get the receiver via bungle arguments and keep an instance in the class.
In your IntentService's onHandleIntent method, probably any where else you want to trigger the event, you will use the receiver to send the data back to the calling class. Something like this,
protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
ResultReceiver resultReceiver = intent.getParcelableExtra(Constants.RECEIVER);
}
ResultReceiver is Generic interface for receiving a callback result from someone. Use this by creating a subclass and implement onReceiveResult(int, Bundle), which you can then pass to others and send through IPC, and receive results they supply with send(int, Bundle).
So extend that class and create a new class in your app like this,
public abstract class AddressResultReceiver extends ResultReceiver {
public AddressResultReceiver(Handler handler) {
super(handler);
}
}
Then AddressResultReceiver might look something like this in your Activity,
protected AddressResultReceiver mResultReceiver = new AddressResultReceiver(new Handler()) {
#Override
protected void onReceiveResult(int resultCode, Bundle resultData) {
// Check result code and/or resultData and take necessary action
}
};
I hope this helps.
I'mm trying to create an app that allows you to set a proximity alert for marker when you click on it's info window.
googleMap.setOnInfoWindowClickListener(
new OnInfoWindowClickListener(){
public void onInfoWindowClick(Marker marker) {
LatLng clickedMarkerLatLng = marker.getPosition();
double lat = clickedMarkerLatLng.latitude;
double long1 = clickedMarkerLatLng.longitude;
Log.e("hello", "Output=" + lat + long1);
LocationManager lm;
// double lat=123,long1=34; //Defining Latitude & Longitude
float radius=30; //Defining Radius
lm=(LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
Intent i= new Intent("com.example.sleepertrain5.ProximityReceiver"); //Custom Action
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), 1, i, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
lm.addProximityAlert(lat, long1, radius, -1, pendingIntent);
}
This is the code that calls the Broadcast Receiver
public class ProximityReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
// The reciever gets the Context & the Intent that fired the broadcast as arg0 & agr1
String k=LocationManager.KEY_PROXIMITY_ENTERING;
// Key for determining whether user is leaving or entering
boolean state=arg1.getBooleanExtra(k, false);
//Gives whether the user is entering or leaving in boolean form
if(state){
// Call the Notification Service or anything else that you would like to do here
Toast.makeText(arg0, "Welcome to my Area", 600).show();
}else{
//Other custom Notification
Toast.makeText(arg0, "Thank you for visiting my Area,come back again !!", 600).show();
}
}
The above is the Broadcast receiver. None of this works and I can't figure out why. Any help would be great.
Use below code for Pending Intent:
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(),
nId, intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
Where nId will be any uniq number that represent particular pending intent.
