notifications.getAll()
Gets all currently active notifications created by the extension.
This is an asynchronous function that returns a Promise.
Syntax
let gettingAll = browser.notifications.getAll() Parameters
None.
Return value
A Promise that will be fulfilled with an object. Each currently active notification is a property of this object: the name of the property is the ID of the notification, and the value of the property is a notifications.NotificationOptions object describing that notification.
Note that you can define an ID for a notification explicitly by passing it into notifications.create(). If you don't do this, the browser will generate one. Explicitly-specified IDs are strings, but generated IDs are numbers.
Examples
This example shows a notification when the user clicks a browser action, unless the notification was already being shown, in which case it clears the notification. It uses getAll() to figure out whether the notification is being shown:
const myNotification = "my-notification"; function toggleAlarm(all) { const ids = Object.keys(all); if (ids.includes(myNotification)) { browser.notifications.clear(myNotification); } else { console.log("showing"); browser.notifications.create(myNotification, { type: "basic", title: "Am imposing title", message: "Some interesting content", }); } } function handleClick() { console.log("clicked"); browser.notifications.getAll().then(toggleAlarm); } browser.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(handleClick); This example logs the title of all active notifications:
function logNotifications(all) { for (const id in all) { console.log(`Title: ${all[id].title}`); } } browser.notifications.getAll().then(logNotifications); Browser compatibility
