See JIRA : https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AGDROID-473
Background : Currently we have a developer manually enter the Google Project ID to enable push messages in their application. However, this approach is considered "legacy" from Google's POV and they are encouraging consuming the Google-services.json file.There are two ways we can consume this file. The first is to parse it manually and extract the key "project_info/project_number"[1].
The second is to have the developer add the google services plugin to their Gradle projects and then we can consume the key from the resources with the field "R.string.gcm_defaultSenderId".I would prefer to parse the file manually. It make our code less reliant on Google's tools and it allows our users to choose if they will use Google's plug in for its other features.
However, Google's plugin may provide extra features or validation which may be useful in the future.
Wdyt?Summers1: This is a documented value described in this section : https://developers.google.com/android/guides/google-services-plugin#processing_the_json_file
