Usage
There are two types of notifications,
one is inline_notify, for javascript alert and javascript console notifiers, which returns a string and will be combined,
the other is out_of_channel_notify, for rails logger, customized logger, xmpp, which doesn't return anything, just send the message to the notifiers.
By default, all notifiers are disabled, you should enable them first.

UniformNotifier.raise = MyExceptionClass # raise a custom exception type
UniformNotifier.raise = false # don't raise errorsAfter that, you can enjoy the notifiers, that's cool!
# the notify message will be notified to rails logger, customized logger or xmpp.
UniformNotifier.active_notifiers.each do |notifier|
notifier.out_of_channel_notify("customize message")
end
# the notify message will be wrapped by <script type="text/javascript">...</script>,
# you should append the javascript_str at the bottom of http response body.

responses = []
UniformNotifier.active_notifiers.each do |notifier|
responses << notifier.inline_notify("customize message")
end
javascript_str = responses.join("\n")XMPP/Jabber Support
To get XMPP support up-and-running, follow the steps below:
- Install the xmpp4r gem:
gem install xmpp4r - Make both the sender and the recipient account add each other as contacts. This will require you to manually log into both accounts, add each other as contact and confirm each others contact request.
- Boot up your application. UniformNotifier will automatically send an XMPP notification when XMPP is turned on.
