[aerogear-dev] [UnifiedPush Server: Sender API] Adding category query

[Matthias Wessendorf]

Hi,

for the SimplePush we tag the different channels with a category, to give
the "channelID" a "meaningful" name. That is also required when sending
messages to different SP clients/channels (see [1]).

This would be useful on Android/iOS as well, for some sort of
tagging/grouping (similar to the use-case in SimplePush).

Clients could specify a category, like:
...
[registration registerWithClientInfo:^(id<AGClientDeviceInformation>
clientInfo) {

  clientInfo.deviceToken = deviceToken;
  ...
  clientInfo.category = @"something";

  } success:^() {
    ...
  } failure:^(NSError *error) {
    ..
  }
];


For sending push notification message to all clients, with the matching
category, the "Selective Sender" API could have this field on its payload:

"category" : "something"

This would basically add the "category" behavior, used for SP to Android/iOS

Any thoughts ?
