README

PHP library for sending notifications via Apple Push Notification service (APNS) over HTTP/2.

Installation

composer require gepo/apns-http2

Requirements

AAA Certificate

Since 29 March 2021, the AAA certificate is required. You can read about it and get it here: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=7gx0a2lp.

On Ubuntu, you must put it in /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/extra/ (create the path if it doesn't exist), and run update-ca-certificates as root).

cURL HTTP/2 support

You need cURL with HTTP/2 support installed on your system for this library to work. cURL supports HTTP/2 starting version 7.43.0.

Check if your installation supports it

Here's a simple script to check if your installation supports cURL with HTTP/2:

<?php

defined('CURL_VERSION_HTTP2') || define('CURL_VERSION_HTTP2', 65536);
$version = curl_version();
if (($version['features'] & CURL_VERSION_HTTP2) !== 0) {
        echo 'HTTP/2 supported'.PHP_EOL;
} else {
        echo 'HTTP/2 not supported'.PHP_EOL;
}

Alternatively, you may check the cURL version in command line to make sure it's greater or equal to 7.43.0:

curl --version

Installation on Ubuntu

#!/bin/bash

# Update version to latest, found here: https://curl.se/download/
VERSION=7.76.1

cd ~
sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential nghttp2 libnghttp2-dev libssl-dev wget
wget https://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-${VERSION}.tar.gz
tar -xzvf curl-${VERSION}.tar.gz && rm -f curl-${VERSION}.tar.gz && cd curl-${VERSION}
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-ssl --with-nghttp2
make -j4
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
cd ~ && rm -rf curl-${VERSION}

This script is based on https://gist.github.com/jjpeleato/3327c2e38fc0fea7d6602401f9849809

Installation on MacOS X

To install it on OS X with Homebrew (the example is for PHP 5.6):

brew install curl --with-nghttp2 --with-openssl
brew link curl --force
brew reinstall php56 --with-homebrew-curl

Usage

Simple

<?php

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$client = new \Apns\Client(__DIR__ . '/certs/apns-dev-cert.pem', true); // true is for sandbox

$message = (new \Apns\Message())
    ->setDeviceIdentifier('a00915e74d60d71ba3fb80252a5e197b60f2e7743f61b4411c713e9aabd2854f')
    ->setAlert('Test message')
    ->setTopic('com.mycompany.myapp')
;

$client->send($message);

Complex

<?php

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Apns\Client as ApnsClient;
use Apns\Message as ApnsMessage;

// Check if token format is valid
if ((!ctype_xdigit($token)) || (64 != strlen($token))) {
   die('Token is invalid!');
}

// Create client with production certificate and passphrase
$client = new ApnsClient(
    [
        __DIR__ . '/certs/apns-prod-cert.pem',
        'my-passphrase'
    ], 
    false // false is for production
);

// Get topic from certificate file
if ($cert = openssl_x509_parse(file_get_contents($apnsClient->getSslCert()[0]))) {
    $topic = $cert['subject']['UID'];
}

// Create message
$message = (new ApnsMessage())
    ->setDeviceIdentifier($token)
    ->setAlert('This is a test message sent on '.gmdate('r'))
    ->setData([
        'Key1' => 'Value1',
        'Key2' => 'Value2',
        'Key3' => 'Value3',
    ])
    ->setTopic($topic);

// Send it and catch errors
try {
    $client->send($message);
} catch (ApnsException $e) {
