Re: [Aerogear-users] Unified Push Server - Anyway to delete notifications when in background?

Matthias, Thanks for the prompt and helpful reply. We had a quick look at the stacking, as expected it seems to be for Android (which is no surprise at all). I am not an expert on iOS (or anything else) but as far as I know, stacking is impossible on iOS. We’re spending more and more time on getting the notifications right, its turned out to be significantly more complicated than we thought and one of the areas where we have two distinct lines of code in our Cordova app. I’ll raise JIRA for our ideas and let people ponder on that. In the last three weeks, we’ve tried four biggish vendors for Push notifications and we’ve had issues with all of them. Amazon, Parse, Urban Airship, OneSignal. Some are money issues (thats always the way), some are incredibly inflexible (Amazon), some don’t handle content-available, some don’t really support Cordova. Its been hardwork and we really, really want UPS to work for us. We’re tired of testing notifications on yet another system :) I’ll put in on github but the code is pretty simple so I’ll put it here as well as we’re not big users off github and it might takes us a while to work it out. We’re rather old-school and like Emacs, Perl and dead simple stuff like that. We’ll try and work it out though Best wisher, Rob This is untested code as-is, we just pulled it straight out the testing file. We know it works in our system but I haven’t tested this simplified version. The github one will be tested though. ``` #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use warnings; use Net::Curl::Easy qw(/^CURLOPT_.*/); use JSON; sub SendAeroGearNotification { my ($url , $username , $password , $config) = @_; my $curl = Net::Curl::Easy->new; my $json = JSON->new(); my $response_body; my $json_string = $json->encode($config); print "json string $json_string\n"; $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_URL, $url); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST , 0); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER , 0); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_USERPWD , "$username:$password"); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ['Content-Type: application/json' , 'Accept: application/json']); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_POST , 1); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS , $json_string); $curl->setopt( CURLOPT_WRITEDATA , \$response_body); $curl->perform; print "AeroGear Reponse=".Dumper($response_body); } my $notification_config = { variants => [ “<<VARIANT ID>>“ ] , alias => [ “alias1” , “alias2” , “alias3” ] , ttl => 600 , message => { alert => $contents , 'content-available' => JSON::true , data => { key1 => value1 , key2 => value2 } } }; SendAeroGearNotification("https://<<OPENSHIFT GEAR NAME>>.rhcloud.com/ag-push/rest/sender" , “<<USERNAME>>“ , “<<PASSWORD>>” , $notification_config); ```` On 25 Nov 2015, at 10:07, Matthias Wessendorf wrote:
