Dashboard/Email Notifications

Adding and Removing Dashboard and Nightly email Notifications that show up in the FreePBX Dashboard is extremely easy.

Inside any module simply add:

$nt = notifications::create();
//OR
$nt = FreePBX::Notifications();

The only things we need to know is the rawname of our module (in module.xml) and a unique string to identify this notification.

$rawname = 'dahdiconfig';
$uid = 'modprobeconf';

Before adding a new notification it is essential for you to check to make sure you aren't adding duplicate notifications.

if($nt->exists($rawname, $uid)) {
    //Process add or delete
}

There are six different types of notifications that can be managed on the dashboard. They all use the same parameters as listed below:

This will forcefully delete a notification, even if $candelete has been set to false

This won't delete a notification if $candelete was set to false
