Broadcast Memo Plugin

Introduction

The Broadcast Memo Plugin is a Joget UI plugin that displays real-time broadcast messages and announcements as banners across selected applications and UIs. Broadcast messages are stored in a configurable form, allowing administrators to publish, rebroadcast, or stop announcements without modifying the application.

Get Started

Steps

Where To Get The Plugin

Refer to Source Code and Plugin Download.

How To Install And Use The Plugin

1. You can choose to import the demo app or create the app from scratch. For the demo app, go to Joget Home or All Apps and click on Import App to import the downloaded demo app (refer to another KB - Import Joget App for more details).
2. To create the app from scratch, now let us create a new form, Broadcast Messages form, with three fields: Message Text, Priority, and Status. This form is to store the data needed for the plugin to use.
   
3. Click the Generate App feature and click Generate a CRUD. Move to the runtime and add a new record in the Manage Broadcast Messages page.
   

4. The form contains the following fields:

• • Message Text: Enter the message that will be displayed in the broadcast banner. Only these status values are treated as active broadcasts. 
  • Priority: Select the priority of the announcement. The priority may determine the banner's appearance or display order.
  • Status: Controls whether the announcement is displayed. Supported values include:
    • Broadcast: Publishes the announcement.
    • Rebroadcast: Republishes an existing announcement.

After filling in the required fields, click Save.
