Hmm, looks like I emailed to soon. It appears I have a version mix match and that my openshift UPS is on the 1.0.x branch and the Node sender release for that branch doesn’t include an options object for including categories?

Subject: [aerogear-dev] UPS Node Sender client categories issue?

Hi,

I’m just starting out with UPS (which is awesome btw!) and the Node.js sender client. One thing I’ve noticed is that a message sent from the dashboard with a particular category is sent to only those installations that have that category listed. This works great and is expected. I’m glad there is a way to target specific notification channels, etc.

Sending a notification via the Node Sender client however appears to be sending to everyone’s installation regardless of the categories sent with the message. Here’s a pastie of what my node client call looks like: http://pastie.org/10282358

I’m using:  
Unifiedpush Node Sender version 0.8.0-beta1

UPS is the setup via the openshift cartridge, from https://cartreflect-claytondev.rhcloud.com/reflect?github=aerogear/openshift-origin-cartridge-aerogear-push 

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Very well could be me doing it wrong… ;-)

Thanks,
Miles
