Allow to customise android-permissions background notification

[zatteo]

Hi,

Thank you for your work. Here is a small feature request related to Android permission notification in background.

On Android, if :

• app goes in foreground
• you allow all needed permissions
• app run startTracking()
• app goes in background
• you disallow location permission in app settings
• geolocation is triggered in background

A default permission notification is displayed by android-permissions, the library you used to manage permissions. It was not possible to customise it before (as you said in this issue), but since android-permissions 2.1.6 it is.

So could you support this notification customisation ?

Thank you.

Your Environment

• Plugin version: 4.13.3
• Platform: Android (LineageOS)
• OS version: 13
• Device manufacturer / model: Pixel 6a
• React Native version (react-native -v): 0.66
• Plugin config

{
      desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DESIRED_ACCURACY_HIGH,
      showsBackgroundLocationIndicator: false,
      distanceFilter: 20,
      elasticityMultiplier: 2,
      locationUpdateInterval: 10000,
      stationaryRadius: 50, 
      stopTimeout: 10,
      debug: false, 
      logLevel: BackgroundGeolocation.LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG,
      startOnBoot: true,
      batchSync: false,
      autoSync: false, 
      stopOnTerminate: false,
      enableHeadless: true,
      foregroundService: true,
      backgroundPermissionRationale: {
        message: t(
          'services.geolocationTracking.androidBackgroundPermissionMessage'
        )
      },
      notification: {
        title: t('services.geolocationTracking.androidNotificationTitle'),
        text: t('services.geolocationTracking.androidNotificationDescription'),
        smallIcon: 'mipmap/ic_stat_ic_notification'
      }
    }

Expected Behavior

A custom icon + title + message for the background permission notification like https://transistorsoft.github.io/react-native-background-geolocation/interfaces/config.html#notification

Actual Behavior

Steps to Reproduce

1. app goes in foreground
2. you allow all needed permissions

5. you disallow location permission in app settings
6. geolocation is triggered in background

Hi @christocracy, did you get a chance to look at my issue?

[paultranvan]

That is something that would be very nice to have, if you think this is possible @christocracy :pray:
