Notifyii

If you want to use notifyii with roles, extensions like "rights" or RBAC are required.

Be shure to have the same 'db' configuratiion in these files:
protected/config/main.php
protected/config/console.php

To install notifyii, navigate to the forlder "protected/modules" of your project. If your project does not have any "modules" folder, just create id. Then, run the command:

$ git clone [email protected]:sensorario/notifyii

Now you just need to add module to confi file:

'modules'=>array(
    'notifyii',
),

And try to load these routes:

index.php?r=notifyii
index.php?r=notifyii/modelNotifyii
index.php?r=notifyii/notifyiiReads

The first one show you a sample page that create a sample notification. The second one show you a crud to alter notifications.

If you want you can add these items to views/layouts/main.php file:

array('label'=>'Notifyii', 'url'=>array('/notifyii')),
array('label'=>'ModelNotifyii', 'url'=>array('/notifyii/modelNotifyii')),
array('label'=>'NotifyiiReads', 'url'=>array('/notifyii/notifyiiReads')),

Run migrations

/var/www/YOUR_APP_NAME/protected$ ./yiic migrate --migrationPath=webroot.modules.notifyii.migrations

Notify the end of the world

$notifyii = new Notifyii();
$notifyii->title('News from Mayans!');
$notifyii->message('The end of the world');
$notifyii->expire(new DateTime("21-12-2012"));
$notifyii->from("-1 week");
$notifyii->to("+1 day");
$notifyii->role("admin");
$notifyii->link($this->createUrl('/site/index'));
$notifyii->save();

Get all notifications

ModelNotifyii::getAllNotifications()
ModelNotifyii::getAllRoledNotifications()

Usage

Suppose to load all notifications in your controller:

public function actionIndex()
{
    $this->render('index', array(
        'notifiche' => ModelNotifyii::getAllNotifications()
    ));
}

In the view, you can load all notifications

<?php $number = 1; ?>
<?php while (Yii::app()->user->hasFlash('success' . ($number))) : ?>
    <?php $message = Yii::app()->user->getFlash('success' . ($number)); ?>
    <div class="flash-success info">
        <h3><?php echo $message['title']; ?></h3>
        <div><?php echo $message['message']; ?></div>
    </div>
    <?php $number = $number + 1; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
