Examples
In our Emogotchi demo (see source code), we run a simple spawnNotification()
function when we want to fire a notification — this is passed arguments to specify the body, icon and title we want, then it creates the necessary options
object and fires the notification using the Notification()
constructor.
function spawnNotification(theBody,theIcon,theTitle) { var options = { body: theBody, icon: theIcon } var n = new Notification(theTitle,options); }
