Ionic v1 Local Notifications Trigger Status

$rootScope.$on('$cordovaLocalNotification:trigger', function(event, notification, state) {
    //code
});

I've tried above code, but its just for when the app is already open while notification. I want to count all the notifications which are triggered while the app wasn't opened. Is there any way?

I've found a solution in this way that, I've these notifications in my local storage, on device ready I compare current time with scheduled times and calculate all the notifications that're triggered and that're not.

  1. When an app is closed (not just put into background with android for instance) and
  2. a notification is trigged or shown, then

the app-code can not run to keep a counter up to date stored in localStorage or a Sqlite-DB (for instance).

So the only way to increase a counter so that your request is fulfilled:

I want to count all the notifications which are triggered while the app wasn't opened

You have to use:

$rootScope.$on('$cordovaLocalNotification:click', function(event, notification, state) {
    // increase counter in your localStorage or Sqlite-DB here
});

because as this doc states:

The click event will also be called after deviceready if the app wasn’t running.

The click event will always be called when a notification is clicked, no matter if your app is open or not.

If you want to count only notifications that were clicked

  • While your app was not open OR
  • Your app is started, but an user is outside your app (relevant on iOS because app-code does not run when it's put into background or closed).

then you can do it in this way:

$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
// ....
    $rootScope.$on('$cordovaLocalNotification:click', function(event, notification, state) {
        if(state === "background"){
           console.log("increase counter");
        }
    });
    // or if the first does not fire like with me, then use this instead:
    cordova.plugins.notification.local.on('click', function (notification, state) {
        if(state === "background"){
           console.log("increase counter");
        }
    });
// ....
});

Hope this helps as well.
