Sounds great! Meanwhile, if @Support can help regardless - it would be wonderful!

Currently running in Remix, using @novu/notifications-center: 0.10.1 When using the useNotifications() hook, I get the following error: TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'notifications') example code:

const { notifications, refetch, markAsSeen, fetching, markAsRead } = useNotifications();
...
  useEffect(() => {
    if (!fetching) {
      if (notifications) {
        notifications.forEach((n) => {
          if (!n.seen) {
            console.log(n._id, 'not seen');
            console.log(n);
            showNotification({
              id: n._id,
              title: 'Demo Notification',
              message: notificationContent(n),
              autoClose: false,
            })
          }
        })
      }
    }
  }, [notifications, markAsSeen, fetching])
...

const { notifications, refetch, markAsSeen, fetching, markAsRead } = useNotifications();
...
  useEffect(() => {
    if (!fetching) {
      if (notifications) {
        notifications.forEach((n) => {
          if (!n.seen) {
            console.log(n._id, 'not seen');
            console.log(n);
            showNotification({
              id: n._id,
              title: 'Demo Notification',
              message: notificationContent(n),
              autoClose: false,
            })
          }
        })
      }
    }
  }, [notifications, markAsSeen, fetching])
...

hope that helps

sorry that took me longer than I wanted it to take

Looks like the issue is here: https://github.com/novuhq/novu/blob/cd8d36cbb14c2431db8cdec47dcc40ccc5df20c2/packages/notification-center/src/hooks/use-notifications.hook.ts#L14

Paweł T.•2y ago

to me it seems like you are trying to use the useNotifications hook outside the NovuProvider context can you check that?

dr.really•2y ago

For some reason, I didn't get notified of this. I apologize greatly for the delay. I am verifying this now.
