My fork is here

https://github.com/jcesarmobile/phonegap-plugin-push/tree/FCM

I didn't add the .json and I'm receiving push notifications

Last time I read the GCM docs they were already talking about that .json (I think it was on February or March), it's not a new thing on FCM.

I don't think that file is really needed, the phonegap-plugin-push (https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push) doesn't use it and push notifications work without it. The Sender ID is set on plugin install passing it as a variable. Not sure what other values are included on the google-services.json

This plugin isn't using Firebase.  We didn't need google-services.json for GCM3.

 

I forked the phonegap plugin to add FCM support and it works too without the google-services.json file too.

Sauce?

Firebase requires two variables, the application id and the sender id.  Fortunately the senderId is embedded in the applicationId.

I've made a PoC version of AGDroid-push here : https://github.com/secondsun/aerogear-android-push/tree/no_google_services

and a Poc Puhs app here : https://github.com/secondsun/unified-push-helloworld/tree/no_google_services

 

As you can see I've just overloaded the SenderId.

I am now actually wondering, where to put the google-service.json file on Cordova (no I am not updating our plugin), but I have no clue what is matching the native 'app' folder in Crodova land, is it WWW foldeR? 

https://github.com/jboss-mobile/unified-push-helloworld/tree/master/cordova

hrm...

 

There is no native folder on a cordova project, but we can put something in the plugin.xml that will install / copy it into the native project:

<resource-file src="src/android/google-services.json" target="google-services.json" />

https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-cordova-push/blob/master/plugin.xml#L64

Don't know what the content is of this file seems the https://github.com/jboss-mobile/unified-push-helloworld/pull/31 demo doesn't have this google-services.json

Correct.  The documentation is being updated to cover the fact the developer needs to add the file.  If the file is not present the developer gets a useful error message in his/her log when registration fails.  If the file is present but incorrect (as say a stubbed file) then then developer gets a less useful message.  We chose to leave it out because it is more clear what the problem is, and a quick google search for "google-services.json" takes the user exactly where they need to go.
