Scoping Notifications

Sometimes you have a site that has groups or teams. Perhaps you are using pinax-teams. If this is the case you likely want users who might be members of multiple teams to be able to set their notification preferences on a per team or group basis.

You will need to to simply override NoticeSettingsView to provide your own scoping object.

Override NoticeSettingsView

I think it's best if we just demonstrate via code:

# views.py
from pinax.notifications.views import NoticeSettingsView


class TeamNoticeSettingsView(NoticeSettingsView):
    
    @property
    def scoping(self):
        return self.request.team

Then override the url:

# urls.py
from django.conf.urls import patterns, url

from .views import TeamNoticeSettingsView


urlpatterns = patterns(
    "",
    ...
    url(r"^notifications/settings/$", TeamNoticeSettingsView.as_view(), name="notification_notice_settings"),
)
