Hi bhupen 

 

Thank you for your reply. Since we want to use the notification count in a third party software we cannot solve this by using Frontend technologies such as Javascript / jQuery.

 

 

Thanks anyway for sharing your code

mfeltscher  I think you want when some one rank/like/mention/reply/ on your post then notification will comeup as unread. Once you click on view all notification the it will convert into read. Thats what exactly this code does. I don't think lithium provide third party api etc.. Hope this will help you.. also there is api for notification count

restapi/vc/users/id/youruserid/notifications/count

    Yes this is what I want but I want to expose this information in another application, therefore I need to be able to access this information using Lithium's REST API. I hope Lithium will offer this functionality at some point, since it is already possible in the frontend. As cblown mentioned it would be a good approach regarding consistency to implement new functionality in the API first and afterwards develop the frontend parts.
