Notifications are stored in an SQLite database and should only be accessed by the provided notification functions.
Use these simple code snippets in a Perl (.pl) script to use notify and notify_ext. Place the script in your plugin directory.

#!/usr/bin/perl use LoxBerry::Log; $LoxBerry::Log::DEBUG = 1; # Outputs more info my $package = $lbpplugindir; my $group = "test"; my $message = "This is a test notification"; my $severity = 'err'; # comment out to set an info notification notify ( $package, $group, $message, $severity);

#!/usr/bin/perl use LoxBerry::Log; $LoxBerry::Log::DEBUG = 1; # Outputs more info my $package = $lbpplugindir; my $group = "test"; my $message = "This is a test notification"; my $severity = 3; # 3 is error, 6 is info my %notification = ( PACKAGE => $package, NAME => $name, MESSAGE => $message, SEVERITY => $severity, someproperty => "Something", LOGFILE => "$lbpplugindir/system_tmpfs/apache2/error.log" ); my $status = LoxBerry::Log::notify_ext( \%notification );
There are two web tools integrated in LoxBerry to show current notifications:
This will display notifications as users would see it on the screen, but without filters for package and name.
http://loxberry/admin/system/tools/showallnotifications.cgi
As the function get_notifications_html only returns notifications with severity 3 = error and 6 = info, no other severities are shown.
The RAW tool will show all notifications, without any filters for package, name and severity. It also displays notifications other than severity 3 = error and 6 = info, and shows all known attributes.
The database is located in $lbsdatadir/notifications_sqlite.dat
If you delete the file, it will be recreated on the next notification with it's initial settings. Additional to the notifications, you may loose notification settings or helper notifications (e.g. the last notified LoxBerry Update version).
