Install Push notifications

sugoke · July 3, 2015, 1:58pm

Hi,

I am going to add push notifications to my first app.

I did not find any clear tutorial on this. Do I have to use a system like Pushwoosh?

Or is it enough to install a package like https://atmospherejs.com/raix/push and configure the APN??

Thanks

Michael

If you just want to enable basic push functionality, the package is enough. It is working well for me. You find tutorials on the github package of the package: https://github.com/raix/push/

github.com

raix/push/blob/master/docs/BASIC.md

Basic example
=============

This is an example of how `raix:push` works at a minimal level.

Depending on the platforms you want to work with you will need some credentials or certificates.
* [Android](ANDROID.md)
* [iOS](IOS.md)

## Config
Use the `Push.Configure` function on client and server.

On the client
```js
Push.Configure({
  android: {
    senderID: 12341234,
    alert: true,
    badge: true,
    sound: true,

Trying to configure this package.

I have done the certificates part. The app asks me if I allow notifications to be received.

I get this message when starting the server:
> WARNING: Push APN is using development key and certificate.

Is it ok?

Then when I try to send a notif from the console, nothing comes on the device.

Push.send({
from: ‘Test’,
title: ‘Hello’,
text: ‘World’,
badge: 12,
query: {}
});
“4DxyrxPiQLw3pYung”

As you can see I get an id back. Any clue why it is not showing up on the phone?

my config.push.json:

{

  "apn-dev": {
    "passphrase": "Password",  
    "key": "PushIminKey.pem",
    "cert": "PushIminCert.pem"
    
  },
 
    "production": false,
  "badge": true,
  "sound": true,
  "alert": true,
  "vibrate": true
}

More elements, when I try to test the connection with:

openssl s_client -connect gateway.sandbox.push.apple.com:2195 -cert private/PushIminCert.pem -key private/PushIminKey.pem

I get:

verify error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate

and finally:

   Verify return code: 0 (ok)

Any suggestion please?

Having the same problem.

No sorry, I don’t get it really.

Similar problem here, with the warning message. It looks like it’s normal, though, check this link: https://github.com/raix/push/wiki/iOS-Micro-Walkthrough
