trackwellnotifications 4.1.4

===============
Notifications
Notifications is a simple Django app to serve notifications to your users.
To start:
pip install trackwell-notifications

===============
Aknowledgements
The push notification functionality comes from the great work made by the contributers to the fcm-django module, which is subject to an MIT license.
We would've used it straight as a dependency, but it kind of clashed with other functionality of our setup, such as our multi-tenancy and other things, so we had to add the source code directly with a bit of our own modifications.
We do not claim to have written said code (even if we might modify it to our needs) and have added attribution and links in the imported code.
Quick start

pip install trackwell-notifications

Add "notifications" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this::
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'notifications',
]

Make sure it is after the auth etc.::
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
...
'notifications.middleware.NotificationMiddleware',
)

Put the js and css imports in your base template where you want things to pop up
<script type="text/javascript" src="{% static "notifications/Notifications.js" %}"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static "css/notifications.css" %}" type="text/css" />

And also add in a script tag where the location of your notifications endpoint is:
window.notificationEndpoint = '/api/usernotifications/'; // Don't forget trailing slash

Include the polls URLconf in your project urls.py like this::
path('notifications/', include('notifications.urls')),

Register the api
from notifications.api.views import NotificationViewSet
from notifications.api.views import UserNotificationViewSet
router.register(r'users', UserViewSet)
router.register(r'^users_in_groups', UsersInGroupsViewSet, 'Users in groups')

Run python manage.py migrate to create the notifications models.
