Chrome Extension: Schedule notification not resetting data on chrome storage
0
I've developed an app that should trigger an alarm at a specific hour everyday. This alarm will trigger a rich notification, which has a callback function that sets data in the chrome storage.
The issue is:
- If chrome is running the scheduled notification triggers correctly and resets the data in the chrome storage.
- If chrome is not running (e.g.: PC turned off) and I start chrome 1 or 2 hours after the scheduled notification, the data will reset.
- If chrome is not running and I start chrome 6 or 7 hours after (let's say I turn on the PC after my sleep) the data will not reset, even though the scheduled notification triggers.
Creating alarm:
chrome.alarms.create("resetDailyValue", {
when: new Date().setUTCHours(resetTime, 0, 0, 0),
periodInMinutes: resetTime * 60
});
Schedule notification:
chrome.alarms.onAlarm.addListener(function (alarm) {
chrome.storage.sync.get(null, function (keys) {
dailyValue = keys["dailyValue"];
});
if (alarm.name === "resetDailyValue") {
chrome.notifications.create(resetNotificationOptions,
function () {
chrome.storage.sync.set({
"dailyValue": dailyDefaultValue
}, function () {
console.log("Daily value reset!");
});
});
}
});

What's the point of settingdailyValuein this code? Where doesdailyDefaultValuecome from? Is your background page persistent? The fact that the notification does trigger meanschrome.alarmsworks fine, something else is at fault.

dailyDefaultValue is a const equal to 0. The reason to set dailyValue to 0, is to reset a progress bar in the popup.html file. And as you can see in my bullet times, the setting of the value doesn't work when the extension is offline for a long time.

What's the point of settingdailyValuein this code? Where doesdailyDefaultValuecome from? Is your background page persistent? The fact that the notification does trigger meanschrome.alarmsworks fine, something else is at fault.
