Random message for scheduled local notifications

Question

Is there a way to show a different message every time for scheduled local notifications?

I have a set of messages stored in an array and I would like to show any one of them every time a notification is triggered.

I’ve tried this

const messages = [...];

function getRandom() {
            return Math.floor(Math.random() * (10);
 }

PushNotification.localNotificationSchedule({
            //... You can use all the options from localNotifications
            channelId: "my-channel",
            message: messages[getRandom()], // (required)
            date: new Date(Date.now() + 60 * 1000), // in 60 secs
        
        
        });

But this calls the same message every time.

I think this does not work because PushNotification.localNotificationSchedule is called only once.

Is there a way to achieve this ?

This doesn’t solve the problem, if I want to schedule a notification once a day with random message, do I need to schedule new notification every day? I would like to have an option to set a “messageFn” that would be evaluated just before sending scheduled local notification. Is that possible or is there a good workaround for that?

Edit. What could work is to support handling message/title values as array of strings and choose random element from that array each time notification is being sent.
