# Plan: Push Notifications Toggle on Draft Page ## Overview Add a toggle to the draft page sidebar that enables browser push notifications for draft events. When enabled, the user receives desktop notifications when: 1. **It's their turn to pick** (highest priority) 2. **A pick is made by any team** (so they can track the draft from another tab/window) This uses the **Browser Notification API** (`Notification.requestPermission()` + `new Notification()`), which is the right fit because: - Users already have an active Socket.IO connection on the draft page - The primary use case is "I have the draft tab open but I'm looking at another tab/window" - No server-side push infrastructure, service workers, or VAPID keys needed - Simple, client-side-only feature — no database changes required ## Implementation Steps ### 1. Create `NotificationSettings` component **New file:** `app/components/NotificationSettings.tsx` A toggle switch component (mirroring `AutodraftSettings.tsx` pattern) that: - Shows a Switch toggle labeled "Notifications" - On first enable: calls `Notification.requestPermission()` to request browser permission - Stores the enabled/disabled preference in `localStorage` (keyed per season, e.g. `draftNotifications-{seasonId}`) - Shows a small help message if the browser permission is `denied` - Handles the case where the Notification API is unavailable (e.g. insecure context) by hiding the toggle entirely - Receives no server props — this is entirely client-side state **Props:** ```typescript interface NotificationSettingsProps { seasonId: string; enabled: boolean; onEnabledChange: (enabled: boolean) => void; } ``` ### 2. Create `useDraftNotifications` hook **New file:** `app/hooks/useDraftNotifications.ts` Custom hook that: - Manages the notification enabled/disabled state (persisted to `localStorage`) - Checks browser support for Notification API on mount - Returns `{ notificationsEnabled, setNotificationsEnabled, isSupported }` - The actual notification firing will happen in the draft page component where socket events are already handled ### 3. Wire into the draft page **Modify:** `app/routes/leagues/$leagueId.draft.$seasonId.tsx` - Import and use `useDraftNotifications` hook - In the existing `handlePickMade` socket handler (line ~359), add logic: - If notifications are enabled and `document.hidden` (tab is not focused): - Fire a `new Notification()` with the pick info (e.g. "Team X drafted Player Y") - If the pick means it's now the current user's turn, fire a more urgent notification ("It's your turn to pick!") - Pass notification state down to the `QueueSection` component ### 4. Add toggle to the sidebar **Modify:** `app/components/draft/QueueSection.tsx` - Add the `NotificationSettings` component below the `AutodraftSettings` component (inside the same sidebar section) - Accept new props for notification state ## UI Placement The toggle will sit in the sidebar's queue section, right below the existing Autodraft toggle: ``` ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ My Queue │ │ ┌─────────────────────┐ │ │ │ 1. Player A [×] │ │ │ │ 2. Player B [×] │ │ │ └─────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ ─── Autodraft ──── [·] │ │ ○ Next Pick │ │ ○ While On │ │ │ │ ─── Notifications ─ [·] │ ← NEW │ │ └─────────────────────────┘ ``` ## Notification Content | Event | Condition | Title | Body | |-------|-----------|-------|------| | Pick made | Tab not focused, notifications on | "{League} Draft" | "{TeamName} picked {ParticipantName}" | | Your turn | Tab not focused, notifications on, it's now user's turn | "{League} Draft" | "It's your turn to pick!" | Notifications will include `{ tag: "draft-{seasonId}" }` so they replace each other rather than stacking. ## Edge Cases Handled - **Notification API not available** (HTTP, unsupported browser): Toggle hidden entirely via `isSupported` check - **Permission denied**: Show inline message "Notifications blocked by browser. Update in browser settings." - **Permission not yet requested**: Request on first toggle enable - **Tab is focused**: Don't fire notifications (user can already see the draft) - **SSR**: All Notification API checks guarded with `typeof window !== "undefined"` ## Files Changed | File | Change | |------|--------| | `app/hooks/useDraftNotifications.ts` | **New** — hook for notification state + localStorage persistence | | `app/components/NotificationSettings.tsx` | **New** — toggle UI component | | `app/components/draft/QueueSection.tsx` | **Modified** — add NotificationSettings below AutodraftSettings | | `app/routes/leagues/$leagueId.draft.$seasonId.tsx` | **Modified** — use hook, fire notifications in socket handlers, pass props to QueueSection | ## What This Does NOT Include - **Server-side web push** (VAPID keys, web-push library, service worker, push subscriptions table) — not needed for the core use case. Can be added later if users want notifications when the tab is completely closed. - **Sound notifications** — could be added as a follow-up. - **Granular notification preferences** (per-event toggles) — a single on/off toggle is sufficient for v1. Can be expanded later. - **Database storage** — preference stored in localStorage since it's device-specific and doesn't need to sync across devices.
