parse-push-plugin's Introduction

Phonegap Parse.com Plugin

Phonegap 3.x plugin for Parse.com push service.

Parse.com's Javascript API has no mechanism to register a device for or receive push notifications, which makes it fairly useless for PN in Phonegap/Cordova. This plugin bridges the gap by leveraging native Parse.com SDKs to register/receive PNs and allow a few essential methods to be accessible from Javascript.

For Android, Parse SDK v1.8.0 is used. This means GCM support and no more background process PushService unnecessarily taps device battery to duplicate what GCM already provides.

This plugin exposes the four native Android API push services to JS:

  • register( options, successCB, errorCB ) -- register the device + a JS event callback (when a PN is received)
  • getInstallationId( successCB, errorCB )
  • getSubscriptions( successCB, errorCB )
  • subscribe( channel, successCB, errorCB )
  • unsubscribe( channel, successCB, errorCB )

Installation

Pick one of these two commands:

phonegap local plugin add https://github.com/cookys/parse-push-plugin
cordova plugin add https://github.com/cookys/parse-push-plugin

####Android devices

Now uses 1.8.0 SDK

Android devices without Google Cloud Messaging:

If you only care about GCM devices, you're good to go. Move on to the Usage section.

The automatic setup above does not work for non-GCM devices. To support them, the ParseBroadcastReceiver must be setup to work properly. My guess is this receiver takes care of establishing a persistent connection that will handle push notifications without GCM. Follow these steps for ParseBroadcastReceiver setup:

  1. Add the following to your AndroidManifest.xml, inside the <application> tag

    <receiver android:name="com.parse.ParseBroadcastReceiver">
       <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
       </intent-filter>
    </receiver>
  2. Add the following permission to AndroidManifest.xml, as a sibling of the <application> tag

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />

On the surface, step 1 & 2 should be enough. However, when one of the actions BOOT_COMPLETED or USER_PRESENT (on screen unlock) occurs, ParseBroadastReceiver gets invoked well before your Javascript code or this plugin's Java code gets a chance to call Parse.initialize(). The Parse SDK then barfs, causing your app to crash. Continue with steps 3 & 4 to fix this.

  1. Phonegap/Cordova doesn't seem to define its own android.app.Application, it only defines an android Activity. We'll need to define an application class to override the default onCreate behavior and call Parse.initialize() so the crash described above does not occur. In your application's Java source path, e.g., platforms/android/src/com/example/app, create a file named MainApplication.java and define it this way
    package com.example.app;  //REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR package name
    
    import android.app.Application;
    import com.parse.Parse;
    
    public class MainApplication extends Application {
        @Override
        public void onCreate() {
            super.onCreate();
            Parse.initialize(this, "YOUR_PARSE_APPID", "YOUR_PARSE_CLIENT_KEY");
            //ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().saveInBackground();
        }
    }
  2. The final step is to register MainApplication in AndroidManifest.xml so it's used instead of the default. In the <application> tag, add the attribute android:name="MainApplication". Obviously, you don't have to name your application class this way, but you have to use the same name in 3 and 4.

####iOS device

Now uses 1.6.1 SDK

Add this to your AppDelegates didFinishLaunchingWithOptions
[Parse setApplicationId:@"Your Application ID" clientKey:@"Your Client Key"];

//-- Set Notification
if ([application respondsToSelector:@selector(isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications)])
{
       // iOS 8 Notifications
       [application registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge) categories:nil]];

       [application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
else
{
      // iOS < 8 Notifications
      [application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
                 (UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound)];
}
return YES;
    

####Windows Phone 8 device

Now uses 1.3.2 SDK

Get your APP_ID and .NET_KEY from Parse.com quickstart and add them below initialization code at App() in App.xaml.cs.

            // Parse initialization
            ParseClient.Initialize("APP_ID", ".NET_KEY");

            this.Startup += async (sender, args) =>
            {
                ParseAnalytics.TrackAppOpens(RootFrame);
                await ParseInstallation.CurrentInstallation.SaveAsync();
            };

The notification toast on WP8 won't show up when your app is in forground. To quickly fix that, this plugin will auto add a callback to pop a messagebox after calling parsePlugin.subscribe.

Usage

Once the device is ready, call parsePlugin.register(). This will register the device with Parse, you should see this reflected in your Parse control panel. You can optionally specify an event callback to be invoked when a push notification is received. After successful registration, you can call any of the other available methods.

<script type="text/javascript">
	parsePlugin.register({
	appId:"PARSE_APPID", clientKey:"PARSE_CLIENT_KEY", ecb:"onNotification"}, 
	function() {
		alert('successfully registered device!');
		doWhatever();
	}, function(e) {
		alert('error registering device: ' + e);
	});
	
	function doWhatever(){
	    parsePlugin.getInstallationId(function(id) {
		    alert(id);
	    }, function(e) {
		    alert('error');
	    });
	    
	    parsePlugin.getSubscriptions(function(subscriptions) {
		    alert(subscriptions);
	    }, function(e) {
		    alert('error');
	    });
	
	    parsePlugin.subscribe('SampleChannel', function() {
		    alert('OK');
	    }, function(e) {
		    alert('error');
	    });
	
	    parsePlugin.unsubscribe('SampleChannel', function(msg) {
		    alert('OK');
	    }, function(e) {
		    alert('error');
	    });
	}
	
	function onNotification(pnObj){
    	alert("received pn: " + JSON.stringify(pnObj));
	}
</script>

Silent Notifications

For Android, a silent notification can be sent if you omit the title and alert fields in the JSON payload. If you register an ecb as shown above, it will still be invoked and you can do whatever processing needed on the other fields of the payload.
