Summary

Constructors

Creates a new NotificationCompat.MessagingStyle.Message with the given text, timestamp, and sender.

Parameters:

text: A java.lang.CharSequence to be displayed as the message content
timestamp: Time at which the message arrived in ms since Unix epoch
person: A Person whose Person.getName() value is used as the display name for the sender. This should be null for messages by the current user, in which case, the platform will insert NotificationCompat.MessagingStyle.getUserDisplayName(). A Person's key should be consistent during re-posts of the notification.

Deprecated: Use the alternative constructor instead.

Constructor

Parameters:

text: A java.lang.CharSequence to be displayed as the message content
timestamp: Time at which the message arrived in ms since Unix epoch
sender: A java.lang.CharSequence to be used for displaying the name of the sender. Should be null for messages by the current user, in which case the platform will insert NotificationCompat.MessagingStyle.getUserDisplayName(). Should be unique amongst all individuals in the conversation, and should be consistent during re-posts of the notification.

Methods

Sets a binary blob of data and an associated MIME type for a message. In the case where the platform doesn't support the MIME type, the original text provided in the constructor will be used.

Parameters:

dataMimeType: The MIME type of the content. See for a list of supported image MIME types.
dataUri: The uri containing the content whose type is given by the MIME type.

Notification Listeners including the System UI need permission to access the data the Uri points to. The recommended ways to do this are:

1. Store the data in your own ContentProvider, making sure that other apps have the correct permission to access your provider. The preferred mechanism for providing access is to use per-URI permissions which are temporary and only grant access to the receiving application. An easy way to create a ContentProvider like this is to use the FileProvider helper class.
2. Use the system MediaStore. The MediaStore is primarily aimed at video, audio and image MIME types, however beginning with Android 3.0 (API level 11) it can also store non-media types (see MediaStore.Files for more info). Files can be inserted into the MediaStore using scanFile() after which a content:// style Uri suitable for sharing is passed to the provided onScanCompleted() callback. Note that once added to the system MediaStore the content is accessible to any app on the device.

Returns:

Deprecated: Use NotificationCompat.MessagingStyle.Message.getPerson()

Returns the Person sender of this message.

Get the MIME type of the data pointed to by the URI.

Get the the Uri pointing to the content of the message. Can be null, in which case NotificationCompat.MessagingStyle.Message.getText() is used.
