The BroadcastReceiver is triggered before the notification is displayed in the notification bar. It contains the code that displays the notification and opens the activity when it is tapped (unless it is starting an intent service that does that work).
Therefore, if you see the notification, it means the BroadcastReceiver was triggered.
You don't need an additional BroadcastReceiver for passing the notification data from the first receiver to your app. If you wish to pass the notification data to the Activity that is being launched when the notification is tapped, you can pass it to the intent used to launch that activity.
Suppose you change your sendNotification
call to:
sendNotification(extras, notificationID);
Then you can implement it like this:
private void sendNotification(Bundle extras, final int aNotificationID)
{
mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) this
.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Intent demoIntent = new Intent(this, DemoActivity.class);
demoIntent.putExtras (extras);
demoIntent.putExtra (Utils.NOTIFICATION_ID_KEY, notificationID);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, demoIntent, 0);
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this).setSmallIcon(
R.drawable.ic_stat_gcm).setContentTitle(extras.getString(Utils.TICKER_TITLE_MESSAGE_KEY)).setStyle(
new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle().bigText(extras.getString(Utils.TICKER_TEXT_MESSAGE_KEY))).setContentText(extras.getString(Utils.TICKER_TEXT_MESSAGE_KEY));
mBuilder.setContentIntent(contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.notify(aNotificationID, mBuilder.build());
}
This way your DemoActivity
will get the notification id and all the extras holding the data of the notification.
You can access them in your activity's onCreate
(or perhaps it would be better to do it in onResume
, in case your Activity is already started).
