Push notifications: how works Rocket.chat?

[maxlinux2000]

Hi,
My cordova proj with rocket.chat can now sent the userID to the GCM server a my php server, so in theory rocket.chat can do it too.

I need to know the steps how to cause to send a notification from rocket.chat to a mobile user that is not connected in this moment.

If you need to know how to setup a simple gcm service based in php and mysql, I can send you the code and the cordova environment.... so I hope that you can see how it work and replicate in the chat server package with meteor and mongodb.

here my log:

cat rocket.log | grep Push

I20151030-20:37:23.354(1)? [method] saveSetting Push_production false

I have only configures the GCM part, so I assume that the error in the apn is expected and normal.

The question is: Why this message?

Push, GUIDE: The "Push.appCollection" is empty - No clients have registred on the server yet...

my cordova app, can send the idPhone (tested the recordo with my php server) so in theory rocket.chat could register too.
