Using the plugin

The plugin creates the object window.plugin.notification.local with three methods:

add()

All settings are optional. If no date object is given, the notification will popup immediately.

To add a custom notification:

window.plugin.notification.local.add({
    date: date, // this expects a date object
    message: message, // the message that is displayed
    repeat: repeat, // has the options of 'weekly','daily','monthly','yearly')
    badge: badge, // (only iOS) displays number badge to notification
    foreground: forground, // a javascript function to be called if the app is running
    background: background, // a javascript function to be called if the app is in the background
    sound: sound // (only iOS) a sound to be played, the sound must be located in your project's resources and must be a caf file
});

cancel()

To cancel a specific notification:

window.plugin.notification.local.cancel(__id__);

cancelAll()

To cancel all notifications:

window.plugin.notification.local.cancelAll();

Example

var now                  = new Date().getTime(),
    _60_seconds_from_now = new Date(now + 60*1000);

window.plugin.notification.local.add({
    date:       _60_seconds_from_now,
    message:    'Hello world!',
    repeat:     'weekly', // will fire every week on this day
    foreground: 'foreground',
    background: 'background'
});

function foreground (id) {

}
