README
Package to enable sending push notifications to devices.
Based on previous work of Laravel Push Notification
Installation
Update your composer.json
file to include this package as a dependency
Laravel 5 & Lumen
"hoosk/laravel-push-notification": "dev-laravel5"
Register the PushNotification service provider by adding it to the providers array.
'providers' => [ ... Hoosk\LaravelPushNotification\LaravelPushNotificationServiceProvider::class, ];
Alias the PushNotification facade by adding it to the aliases array in the app/config/app.php
file.
'aliases' => [ ... 'PushNotification' => Hoosk\LaravelPushNotification\Facades\PushNotification::class, ]
Configuration
Copy the config file into your project by running: (Lumen users skip this)
Laravel 5
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Hoosk\LaravelPushNotification\LaravelPushNotificationServiceProvider" --tag="config"
This will generate a config file like this
return [ 'appNameIOS'=>array( 'environment' => 'development', 'certificate' => '/path/to/certificate.pem', 'passPhrase' => 'password', 'service' => 'apns' ), 'appNameAndroid'=>array( 'environment' => 'production', 'apiKey' => 'yourAPIKey', 'service' => 'gcm' ) ];
Where all first level keys corresponds to an service configuration, each service has its own properties, android for instance have apiKey
and IOS uses certificate
and passPhrase
. You can set as many services configurations as you want, one for each app.
Dont forget to set service
key to identify IOS 'service'=>'apns'
and Android 'service'=>'gcm'
The certificate path must be an absolute path, so in the configuration file you can use these:
//Path to the 'app' folder
'certificate'=>app_path().'/myCert.pem'
Laravel functions are also available public_path()
storage_path()
base_path()
Usage
PushNotification::app('appNameIOS') ->to($deviceToken) ->send('Hello World, i`m a push message');
Where app argument appNameIOS
refers to defined service in config file.
###Dynamic configuration and Lumen users You can set the app config array directly: (keep in mind the array schema)
//iOS app PushNotification::app(['environment' => 'development', 'certificate' => '/path/to/certificate.pem', 'passPhrase' => 'password', 'service' => 'apns']); //Android app PushNotification::app(['environment' => 'production', 'apiKey' => 'yourAPIKey', 'service' => 'gcm']);
To multiple devices and optioned message:
$devices = PushNotification::DeviceCollection(array( PushNotification::Device('token', array('badge' => 5)), PushNotification::Device('token1', array('badge' => 1)), PushNotification::Device('token2') )); $message = PushNotification::Message('Message Text',array( 'badge' => 1, 'sound' => 'example.aiff', 'actionLocKey' => 'Action button title!', 'locKey' => 'localized key', 'locArgs' => array( 'localized args', 'localized args', ), 'launchImage' => 'image.jpg', 'custom' => array('custom data' => array( 'we' => 'want', 'send to app' )) )); $collection = PushNotification::app('appNameIOS') ->to($devices) ->send($message); // get response for each device push foreach ($collection->pushManager as $push) { $response = $push->getAdapter()->getResponse(); } // access to adapter for advanced settings $push = PushNotification::app('appNameAndroid'); $push->adapter->setAdapterParameters(['sslverifypeer' => false]);
This package is wrapps Notification Package and adds some flavor to it.
Usage advice
This package should be used with Laravel Queues, so pushes dont blocks the user and are processed in the background, meaning a better flow.
