HTTP2-compliant wrapper for sending iOS and Android push notifications.

Installation

Requires Elixir 1.4/OTP 19.2 or later.

Add pigeon and kadabra as mix.exs dependencies:

def deps do
  [
    {:pigeon, "~> 1.2.3"},
    {:kadabra, "~> 0.4.3"}
  ]
end

Quickstart Guides

Apple iOS (APNS)

1. Add a default worker config to your mix config. See the detailed docs for setting up your certificate and key.

   config :pigeon, :apns,
     apns_default: %{
       cert: "cert.pem",
       key: "key_unencrypted.pem",
       mode: :dev
     }

   This config sets up a default connection to APNS servers. cert and key can be any of the following:

   • Static file path
   • Full-text string of the file contents
   • {:my_app, "certs/cert.pem"} (indicates path relative to the priv folder of the given application)

   Alternatively, you can use token based authentication:

   config :pigeon, :apns,
     apns_default: %{
       key: "AuthKey.p8",
       key_identifier: "ABC1234567",
       team_id: "DEF8901234",
       mode: :dev
     }

   • :key - Created and downloaded via your developer account. Like :cert this can be a file path, file contents string or tuple
   • :key_identifier - The 10-character key identifier associated with :key, obtained from your developer account
   • :team_id - Your 10-character Team ID, obtained from your developer account

2. Create a notification packet. Note: Your push topic is generally the app's bundle identifier.

   iex> n = Pigeon.APNS.Notification.new("your message", "your device token", "your push topic (optional)")

3. Send the packet. Pushes are synchronous and return the notification with an updated :response key.

   iex> Pigeon.APNS.push(n)
   %Pigeon.APNS.Notification{device_token: "your device token",
    expiration: nil, id: "963B9FDA-EA60-E869-AAB5-9C88C8E7396B",
    payload: %{"aps" => %{"alert" => "your message"}}, response: :success,
    topic: "your push topic"}
   
   # Add an `:on_response` callback for async pushes.
   iex> Pigeon.APNS.push(n, on_response: fn(x) -> IO.inspect(x) end)
   :ok

Android (FCM)

Looking for GCM? Try v0.13 or earlier.

1. Add a default worker config to your mix config.

   config :pigeon, :fcm,
     fcm_default: %{
       key: "your_fcm_key_here"
     }

2. Create a notification packet. FCM notifications support

   iex> msg = %{ "body" => "your message" }
   iex> n = Pigeon.FCM.Notification.new("your device registration ID", msg)

3. Send the packet. Pushes are synchronous and return the notification with updated :status and :response keys. If :status is success, :response will contain a keyword list of individual registration ID responses.

   iex> Pigeon.FCM.push(n)
   %Pigeon.FCM.Notification{message_id: "0:1512580747839227%8911a9178911a917",
    payload: %{"notification" => %{"body" => "your message"}}, priority: :normal,
    registration_id: "your device registration ID",
    response: [success: "your device registration ID"],
    status: :success}
   
   # Add an `:on_response` callback for async pushes.
   iex> Pigeon.FCM.push(n, on_response: fn(x) -> IO.inspect(x) end)
   :ok

Amazon Android (ADM)

1. Add a default worker config to your mix config.

   config :pigeon, :adm,
     adm_default: %{
       client_id: "your_oauth2_client_id_here",
       client_secret: "your_oauth2_client_secret_here"
     }

2. Create a notification packet.

   iex> msg = %{ "body" => "your message" }
   iex> n = Pigeon.ADM.Notification.new("your device registration ID", msg)

3. Send the packet.

   iex> Pigeon.ADM.push(n)
   %Pigeon.ADM.Notification{consolidation_key: nil,
    expires_after: 604800, md5: "M13RuG4uDWqajseQcCiyiw==",
    payload: %{"data" => %{"body" => "your message"}},
    registration_id: "your device registration ID",
    response: :success, updated_registration_id: nil}
    
   # Add an `:on_response` callback for async pushes.
   iex> Pigeon.ADM.push(n, on_response: fn(x) -> IO.inspect(x) end)
   :ok
