Android NotificationChannels Sample

Demonstration of using channels to categorize notifications by topic. This feature was

        added in Android O, and allows users to have fine-grained control over their
        notification preferences.
Introduction

Android O introduces notification channels to provide a unified system to help users manage notifications. When you target Android O, you must implement one or more notification channels to display notifications to your users.

You can create a notification channel for each distinct type of notification you need to send. You can also create notification channels to reflect choices made by users of your app. For example, you might setup separate notification channels for each conversation group created by a user in a messaging app.

To create a channel, call [NotificationManager.createNotificationChannels()][1]. You can then use [Notification.Builder.setChannel()][2] to assign your notification to that channel.

Users can now manage most of the settings associated with notifications using a consistent system UI. All notifications posted to a notification channel behave the same. To access the settings screen, use the ACTION_CHANNEL_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS intent:

nt intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_CHANNEL_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS);
nt.putExtra(Settings.EXTRA_CHANNEL_ID, mChannel.getId());
nt.putExtra(Settings.EXTRA_APP_PACKAGE, getPackageName());
tActivity(intent);
