Enable Notification Channel

To enable seat-notifications functionality of sending notifications. Create a bot for your notification channel. By default seat-notifications offers two notification channels which could be extended by other packages: slack and discord:

a more detailed guide on oAuth creation will follow for now the blow table must suffice:

Note: you may only configure one notification channel at your will. However, for discord you must create a bot in your application. For Slack you need to add the bot permission to your oauth scope.

Setup Roles

To be able to subscribe to a notification the user needs the appropriate permission. Please setup a role that carries the needed permission and assign it to users that should be able to receive the notification.

Restart workers

Since the notifications are send out by your workers you need to restart them to pick up the new code. Do this either via docker-compose restart seat-worker if you use docker, or supervisorctl restart worker on linux distributions.

Authenticate

Users need to authenticate for your setup notification channel prior to receiving notifications. they may do this in the registration box on the notification page.

What does the package do at the moment

• Using Model Observer to dispatch Notifications
• Notifications are queueable and send out via the queue.
