By messages are meant notification information about executed actions and processes in the project. There are more ways how to show messages - as an application module in app toolbar, as a widget on dashboard or as a whole page.

Application module

This application module is of "dialog" type and works together with samo-user-messages-dialog module. The badge in the button in app toolbar shows current count of unread messages.

samo-user-messages-app-module - configuration example

    {
        "type": "component:user-modules/messages/samo-user-messages-app-module",

        "security": {
            "loggedIn": true
        },

        "detailType": "dialog",
        "detail":
        {
            "type": "component:user-modules/messages/samo-user-messages-dialog",
            "viewAllPage": "messages",

            "title": "{tr:messages.recent_messages}",

            "searchHidden": true,
            "stateDisabled": true
        }
    }

From the dialog it is possible to open a page with messages browse (see below) and also to the configuration page of messages notifying (see below).

        "messagesCount": "4",
        "viewAllPage": "messages"
    }
