Getting started

Depending on the platforms you want to work with you will need some credentials or certificates.

• Android
• iOS

Have a look at the Basic example

Or check out the DEMO by @elvismercado

Config

Add a config.push.json file in your project and configure credentials / keys / certificates:

pn": {
"passphrase": "xxxxxxxxx",  
"key": "apnProdKey.pem",
"cert": "apnProdCert.pem"

pn-dev": {
"passphrase": "xxxxxxxxx",
"key": "apnDevKey.pem",
"cert": "apnDevCert.pem"
  
cm": {
"apiKey": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"projectNumber": xxxxxxxxxxxx

roduction": true,
 "badge": true,
 "sound": true,
 "alert": true,
 "vibrate": true

Note: This file should be pure json, comments are not supported

Common api

// Push.debug = true; // Add verbosity

Push.send({
    from: 'push',
    title: 'Hello',
    text: 'world',
    badge: 1, //optional, use it to set badge count of the receiver when the app is in background.
    query: {
        // Ex. send to a specific user if using accounts:
        userId: 'xxxxxxxxx'
    } // Query the appCollection
    // token: appId or token eg. "{ apn: token }"
    // tokens: array of appId's or tokens
    // payload: user data
    // delayUntil: Date
});

When in secure mode the client send features require adding allow/deny rules in order to allow the user to send push messages to other users directly from the client - Read more below

Client api

Push.id(); // Unified application id - not a token
Push.setBadge(count); // ios specific - ignored everywhere else

Security allow/deny send

This package allows you to send notifications from the server and client. To restrict the client or allowing the client to send use allow or deny rules.

When a client calls send on Push, the Push's allow and deny callbacks are called on the server to determine if the send should be allowed. If at least one allow callback allows the send, and no deny callbacks deny the send, then the send is allowed to proceed.

Push.allow({
    send: function(userId, notification) {
        return true; // Allow all users to send
    }
});

// Or...
Push.deny({
    send: function(userId, notification) {
        return false; // Allow all users to send
    }
});
