How to add actions to my notification's button?

Question

Here is my code for notification:-

public void showNotification(String Name, String Rate, int Image_Source, int PandP, int Repeat) {

    RemoteViews remoteview = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.notification_layout);

    PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(this, SongsListActivity.class), 0);
    notification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
            .setContent(remoteview)
            .setPriority(2)
            .setTicker(NameD.getText())
            .setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher)
            .setContentTitle(NameD.getText())
            .setContentText(RateD.getText())
            .setContentIntent(pi)
            .setAutoCancel(false)
            .setCustomBigContentView(remoteview)
            .build();

    notification.bigContentView = remoteview;
    remoteview.setImageViewResource(R.id.Repeat_N, Repeat);
    remoteview.setImageViewResource(R.id.P_and_P_N, PandP);
    remoteview.setTextViewText(R.id.Name_N, Name);
    remoteview.setTextViewText(R.id.Rate_N, Rate);
    remoteview.setImageViewResource(R.id.Image_N, Image_Source);
    notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    notificationManager.notify(111111, notification);
}

here is my xml of notification:-

For adding listener into remote views

remoteViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.someView, pendingIntent);

Ok, suppose i added what you said to on of my button which pauses the song.Now what does that pending Intent do. – Hokkyokusei Aug 20 '16 at 10:23
Pending intent is triggered by clicking on pause button . Pending intent might start receiver or service or an activity depends on how you get instance of pending intent . More info : https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/PendingIntent.html – Mehdi Jahed Manesh Aug 20 '16 at 10:33

You can do it using remoteViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.someView, pendingIntent); in combination with BroadCastReceiver and building notification like this:

 private void showNotification(){private void showNotification(){
    Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
    notificationIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_PREVIOUS_IS_TOP);

    PendingIntent pendIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity
            (this, 1, notificationIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

    // notification's layout
    RemoteViews mRemoteViews = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.custom_notification_small);
    mRemoteViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.notif_icon, R.mipmap.ic_launcher);
    mRemoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.notif_title, "playMusic");
    mRemoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.notif_content, "pauseMusic");

    Intent intentPlay = new Intent(this, MyReceiver.class);
    intentPlay.setAction(Constants.PLAY_ACTION);
    PendingIntent pIntentPlay = PendingIntent.getBroadcast
            (this, Constants.PENDING_PLAY_CODE, intentPlay, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

    Intent intentPause = new Intent(this, MyReceiver.class);
    intentPause.setAction(Constants.PAUSE_ACTION);
    PendingIntent pIntentPause = PendingIntent.getBroadcast
            (this, Constants.PENDING_PAUSE_CODE, intentPause, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

    mRemoteViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.notif_title, pIntentPlay);
    mRemoteViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.notif_content, pIntentPause);

    NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this);
    mBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.icon_play)
            .setAutoCancel(false)
            .setOngoing(true)
            .setContentIntent(pendIntent)
            .setContent(mRemoteViews)
            .setTicker("musicStarted");

    startForeground(NOTIFY_ID, mBuilder.build());
}

in BroadCast receiver trigger method you need to manage media player, in my case I have a service bound to MainActivity, so I have connected Main and Broadcast Receiver through interface, when MainActivity's method triggered it manages Service, service manages it's MediaPlayer
