The Notification integration reveals to the user a notification above the content. The Sitecore rules engine may be used to control the enabled state; simply configure the Enable rule on the script. The script is executed every time the page loads.
Example: The following adds an information notification to the page for Sitecore 8 and a warning for Sitecore 7.
$title = "Thank you for using SPE!"
$text = "Today is $([datetime]::Now.ToLongDateString())"
$icon = @{$true="Office/32x32/information.png";$false="Applications/16x16/warning.png"}[$SitecoreVersion.Major -gt 7]
$notification = New-Object -TypeName Sitecore.Pipelines.GetPageEditorNotifications.PageEditorNotification -ArgumentList $text, "Info"
$notification.Icon = $icon
$pipelineArgs.Notifications.Add($notification)Note: Examples included in the following modules
- License Expiration
The Experience Button integration adds a button to the Page Editor. Rules can be used to control visiblity and enablement. The script is only executed when the button is clicked.
- Begin by adding a new script to the Experience Button library. The name of the script will appear in the tooltip.
- Edit the script to perform the appropriate actions. The script can run in the background and show dialogs.
- Change the icon of the item to match the script purpose.
- Configure any Enable or Show rules as needed.
Example: The following adds a command which will display a dialog asking a question, then send an email with the response.
$item = Get-Item -Path .
$response = Show-Input -Prompt "What's the message for $($item.Name)?"
if($response) {
$mailSettings = @{
To = @("Michael West < [email protected] >")
From = "Console < [email protected] >"
BodyAsHtml = $true
SmtpServer = "localhost"
}
$subject = "Message sent regarding item $($item.Name) from $($SitecoreAuthority)"
$response += "<br/>$($item.ItemPath)"
Send-MailMessage @mailSettings -Subject $subject -Body $response
}
