   self.env.user.notify_info(message='My information message')

or 

.. code-block:: python
  
   self.env.user.notify_warning(message='My marning message')

You can test the behaviour of the notifications by installing this module in a demo database.
Access the users form through Settings -> Users & Companies. You'll see a tab called "Test web notify", here you'll find two buttons that'll allow you test the module.
