Sending Notifications

ETS2LA.Notifications

You can use NotificationHandler to send (and receive) notifications across plugins. These are by default displayed as toast notifications inside of ETS2LA.UI, but plugins can also listen to them and display them in their own way if they want to.

How to send a notification​

using ETS2LA.Notifications;

NotificationHandler.Current.SendNotification(new Notification
{
    Id = "YourPlugin.NotificationId", // Never change this ID once set!
    Title = "Your Message Title",
    Content = "Your message content\nthat supports newlines",
    CloseAfter = 2.0f, // How many seconds until the notification closes automatically
    Level = NotificationLevel.Success,
    Progress = 0.5f, // Set CloseAfter to 0 if you want to use Progress
    IsProgressIndeterminate = false, // Again CloseAfter to 0 is required,
                                     // this shows an action that doesn't have a known duration
});

You can continue calling SendNotification(), and updates to existing notifications will be redirected to UpdateNotification.

How to subscribe to notifications​

using ETS2LA.Notifications;

// You need all three to successfully listen to notifications and get their updates.
NotificationHandler.Current.OnNotificationAdded += OnNotificationAdded;
NotificationHandler.Current.OnNotificationUpdated += OnNotificationUpdated;
NotificationHandler.Current.OnNotificationRemoved += OnNotificationRemoved;

private void OnNotificationAdded(object sender, Notification notification)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Notification added: {notification.Title} - {notification.Content}");
}
