Notification.MessagingStyle

public static class Notification.MessagingStyle
extends Notification.Style

java.lang.Object
↳	android.app.Notification.Style
	↳	android.app.Notification.MessagingStyle

Helper class for generating large-format notifications that include multiple back-and-forth messages of varying types between any number of people.

If the platform does not provide large-format notifications, this method has no effect. The user will always see the normal notification view.

If the app is targeting Android P and above, it is required to use the Person class in order to get an optimal rendering of the notification and its avatars. For conversations involving multiple people, the app should also make sure that it marks the conversation as a group with setGroupConversation(boolean).

This class is a "rebuilder": It attaches to a Builder object and modifies its behavior. Here's an example of how this may be used:


 Person user = new Person.Builder().setIcon(userIcon).setName(userName).build();
 MessagingStyle style = new MessagingStyle(user)
      .addMessage(messages[1].getText(), messages[1].getTime(), messages[1].getPerson())
      .addMessage(messages[2].getText(), messages[2].getTime(), messages[2].getPerson())
      .setGroupConversation(hasMultiplePeople());

 Notification noti = new Notification.Builder()
     .setContentTitle("2 new messages with " + sender.toString())
     .setContentText(subject)
     .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.new_message)
     .setLargeIcon(aBitmap)
     .setStyle(style)
     .build();

Constants

MAXIMUM_RETAINED_MESSAGES

public static final int MAXIMUM_RETAINED_MESSAGES

The maximum number of messages that will be retained in the Notification itself (the number displayed is up to the platform).

Constant Value: 25 (0x00000019)

Public constructors

MessagingStyle

public MessagingStyle (CharSequence userDisplayName)

This constructor is deprecated.
use MessagingStyle(Person)

Parameters
`userDisplayName`	`CharSequence`: Required - the name to be displayed for any replies sent by the user before the posting app reposts the notification with those messages after they've been actually sent and in previous messages sent by the user added in `addMessage(android.app.Notification.MessagingStyle.Message)` This value cannot be `null`.

MessagingStyle

public MessagingStyle (Person user)

Parameters

Parameters
`user`	`Person`: Required - The person displayed for any messages that are sent by the user. Any messages added with `addMessage(android.app.Notification.MessagingStyle.Message)` who don't have a Person associated with it will be displayed as if they were sent by this user. The user also needs to have a valid name associated with it, which will be enforced starting in Android P. This value cannot be `null`.

user

Person: Required - The person displayed for any messages that are sent by the user. Any messages added with addMessage(android.app.Notification.MessagingStyle.Message) who don't have a Person associated with it will be displayed as if they were sent by this user. The user also needs to have a valid name associated with it, which will be enforced starting in Android P. This value cannot be null.

Public methods

addHistoricMessage

public Notification.MessagingStyle addHistoricMessage (Notification.MessagingStyle.Message message)

Adds a Message for historic context in this notification.

Messages should be added as historic if they are not the main subject of the notification but may give context to a conversation. The system may choose to present them only when relevant, e.g. when replying to a message through a RemoteInput.

The messages should be added in chronologic order, i.e. the oldest first, the newest last.

Parameters
`message`	`Notification.MessagingStyle.Message`: The historic `Message` to be added

Returns
`Notification.MessagingStyle`	this object for method chaining

addMessage

public Notification.MessagingStyle addMessage (CharSequence text, 
                long timestamp, 
                CharSequence sender)

This method is deprecated.
use addMessage(java.lang.CharSequence, long, android.app.Person)

Adds a message for display by this notification. Convenience call for a simple Message in addMessage(android.app.Notification.MessagingStyle.Message).

Parameters
`text`	`CharSequence`: A `CharSequence` to be displayed as the message content
`timestamp`	`long`: Time at which the message arrived
`sender`	`CharSequence`: A `CharSequence` to be used for displaying the name of the sender. Should be `null` for messages by the current user, in which case the platform will insert `getUserDisplayName()`. Should be unique amongst all individuals in the conversation, and should be consistent during re-posts of the notification.

Returns
`Notification.MessagingStyle`	this object for method chaining

See also:

Notification.MessagingStyle.Message.Message(CharSequence, long, CharSequence)

addMessage

public Notification.MessagingStyle addMessage (Notification.MessagingStyle.Message message)

`timestamp`	`long`: Time at which the message arrived
`sender`	`Person`: The `Person` who sent the message. Should be `null` for messages by the current user, in which case the platform will insert the user set in `MessagingStyle(Person)`. This value may be `null`.

isGroupConversation

public boolean isGroupConversation ()

Returns true if this notification represents a group conversation, otherwise false.

If the application that generated this MessagingStyle targets an SDK version less than Build.VERSION_CODES#P, this method becomes dependent on whether or not the conversation title is set; returning true if the conversation title is a non-null value, or false otherwise. From Build.VERSION_CODES#P forward, this method returns what's set by setGroupConversation(boolean) allowing for named, non-group conversations.

Returns
`boolean`

Returns
`Notification.MessagingStyle`

setGroupConversation

public Notification.MessagingStyle setGroupConversation (boolean isGroupConversation)

Parameters
`isGroupConversation`	`boolean`: `true` if the conversation represents a group, `false` otherwise.

Returns
`Notification.MessagingStyle`	this object for method chaining
