Webkit Notification API jQuery Wrapper
- It requests permission when it required (do not distrubs user on the start) you just call
$.notification
and this plugin will do the rest for you. - It abstracts 2 type of notifications (createHTMLNotification, createNotification) in one simple interface.
- It allows you to specify auto-hide notification inteval (
timeout
parameter). - It closes notification on click by default (
autoclose
parameter). Default browser action: user must click small close button on the top right corner to do that. - You also can specify
replaceId
parameter to replace existed notification with new one (prevents from notifications flooding when showing chat messages in notifications, for eaxmple). - You can pass
onclick
,onclose
,onshow
,onerror
to watch Notification's events.
This plug-in now works in Yandex.Mail WebChat (in production) and it does not have a strong dependence on jQuery.

Usage
// icon + text + title
var options = {
iconUrl: 'avatar.png',
title: 'Title',
body: 'Message',
onclick: function () {
console.log('Pewpew');
}
};
$.notification(options);
// notification will be displayed as soon as user permit notifications
// just text
$.notification("Message");
// notification will be displayed as soon as user permit notifications
// $.notification returns Deferred
$.notification("Hello from jQuery.notifications!")
.then(function (notification) {
setTimeout(function () {
notification.close();
}, 2000);
}, function () {
console.error('Rejected!');
});
Note
Before the notification will occur the user must click on the page and allow the notifications. But you can ask user beforehand:
$.notification.requestPermission(function () {
console.log($.notification.permissionLevel());
});
