Notifications
Web Push
Setting up web push requires FCM
Go to https://console.firebase.google.com/u/0/project/[yourprojectid]/messaging/onboarding

Web Push
You are required to set up the following environment variables
VAPID_FCM_KEY=***
VAPID_PUBLIC_KEY=***
VAPID_PRIVATE_KEY=***
You can use the novel cli to get these via
novel add vapid
and it will walk you through the steps to get these variables
You can then use the api from your controllers via
import * as push from 'novel/push';
await push.web({ to: ["account_ID"] } }, { body: "Your Message" });
Mail
Similarly, you can use the same api to send an email notification
import * as push from 'novel/push';
await push.mail({ to: ["account_ID"] } }, { body: "Your Message" });
You can modify the mail template under app/templates/mail/notification/message.tsx
