Clevis/PushNotifications

A bundle to allow sending of push notifications to mobile devices. Currently supports Android (C2DM, GCM), Blackberry and iOS devices.

Installation

To use this bundle in your Nette project add the following to your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "clevis/push-notifications": "~0.1-beta"
    }
}

and enable it in your config:

extensions:
	pushNotifications: Clevis\PushNotifications\DI\PushNotificationsExtension

pushNotifications:
    android:
        c2dm:
            username:
            password:
            source:
        gcm:
            apiKey:
    apple:
        sandbox: # boolean
        pem: # path to certificate
        passphrase:

NOTE: If you are using Windows, you may need to set the Android GCM use_multi_curl flag to false for GCM messages to be sent correctly.

Usage

A little example of how to push your first message to an iOS device, we'll assume that you've set up the configuration correctly:

use Clevis\PushNotifications\Message\iOSMessage;
use Clevis\PushNotifications\Notifications;

class Service
{

    /**
     * @var Notifications
     */
    protected $sender;

    public function __construct(Notifications $sender)
    {
        $this->sender = $sender;
    }

    public function sendPushNotificationExample()
    {
        $message = new iOSMessage();
        $message->setMessage('Oh my! A push notification!');
        $message->setDeviceIdentifier('test012fasdf482asdfd63f6d7bc6d4293aedd5fb448fe505eb4asdfef8595a7');

        $this->sender->send($message);
    }
}

The send method will detect the type of message so if you'll pass it an AndroidMessage it will automatically send it through the C2DM/GCM servers, and likewise for Mac and Blackberry.

Android messages

Since both C2DM and GCM are still available, the AndroidMessage class has a small flag on it to toggle which service to send it to. Use as follows:

use Clevis\PushNotificationsBundle\Message\AndroidMessage;

$message = new AndroidMessage();
$message->setGCM(true);

to send as a GCM message rather than C2DM.

iOS Feedback service

The Apple Push Notification service also exposes a Feedback service where you can get information about failed push notifications - see here for further details.

This service is available within the bundle. The following code demonstrates how you can retrieve data from the service:

$feedbackService = $container->get("rms_push_notifications.ios.feedback");
$uuids = $feedbackService->getDeviceUUIDs();

Here, $uuids contains an array of Feedback objects, with timestamp, token length and the device UUID all populated.

Apple recommend you poll this service daily.
