I have a raspberry pi setup on a touch screen with a GPRS modem attached. I am attempting to implement an addon that will let me view SMS.
I have a service created that runs my AT cmds to get new text messages/phone calls and store them in my database(MySQL) my service also sends a notification alert saying xyz has messaged you.
Currently this is setup as a website. My database calls work well and display information on my webservice.
Database -> Contacts, SMS_DB, callhistory_DB
my web service has a page called ViewMessages. Its nothing more than a html list with contact information and the number of unread messages as populated by my python script/database call.
when you click the contact name it puts you into the text view, where you can see previous messages from both yourself and the sender along with a textbox that allows me to post new AT cmds to my GSM to send messages.
I would like to integrate this into my media center, so that I can see text messages quickly without backing out of kodi.
Im novice with kodi and poor with xml. How would I best implement this and does kodi even allow for my workflow?
TL;DR;
Is it possible to create an addon that has multiple views, where I can also see received text messages from mysql?
