How do I display notifications from `django-notification`?

django, django-notification, python

Solution

The answer is you have to build it into your own templates. This can be as simple as the following snippet:

<table>
    <caption>{% trans "Notices" %}</caption> 
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>{% trans "Type" %}</th>
            <th>{% trans "Message" %}</th>
            <th>{% trans "Date of the Notice" %}</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        {% for notice in notices %}
            {% if notice.is_unseen %}
                <tr class="unseen_notice">
            {% else %}
                <tr class="notice">
            {% endif %}
                <td class="notice_type">[{% trans notice.notice_type.display %}]</td>
                <td class="notice_message">{{ notice.message|safe }}</td>
                <td class="notice_time">{{ notice.added|timesince }} {% trans "ago" %}</td>
            </tr>
        {% endfor %}
    </tbody>
</table>

As @googletorp answered, Pinax is the goto place for figuring out how the authors are using `django-notification`. In particular, there is a notification administration page that can serve as a handy guide.

Problem

I've been reading the docs for `django-notification`, and they seem to cover creating notifications just fine, but not how to display them to users. Is there a good reference for this out there, and my Google-fu has just failed me? If not, can someone give me some pointers here? Thanks.
