Notification system

This is the notification system in the oms. Notifications can occur anywhere in the system and will be forwarded to the user through different services like push, mail, smoke signal, pidgeon or whatever module is plugged into the system. The cast service in the middle has the task to translate all kind of audiences to users only, taking into account what they specified in settings.

You can find the api of the cast service here, including additional information about how to dispatch a notification. If you want to register another notification provider, you have to give it the category "notification" in the registry category label and implement a /cast endpoint similar to the one in notification-cast. You can however omit the audience_type field as the cast service will translate everything to users only.
