I am working on an cordova app using ionic framework with angular.
I want app to start in background when internet connection become available so that i can fetch some notifications from server.
Is there any way to start app in background. I can keep app in background but for this it has to be in started once.
I trink you have to create a BroadcastReceiver to be notified when an connection is established. When this happends you could start a Service which fetch some data. For your cordova app you have to write an Cordova Plugin.

I want to track user location continuously and update it to server. Also user can set alarm to start tracking. User can kill app or terminate it so how to run a background service to track continuous location and post it to server? Is it possible to achieve it in flutter without writing native code in both android and ios platform?
You are right !! You can also go with flutter background service plugin and do some customization then maybe it's work
What I'm trying to do is every like 1 min or so connect to REST API get all pending push notifications from database and if time matches time on the device send a push notification. I can't use Firebase for that because I was told to use only self-hosted Services. I found a plugin that should do the thing with running tasks in the background android_alarm_manager 0.2.1
The problem is that it depends on Firebase_auth plugin which requires to connect my app to Firebase.
Is there any equivalent of this plugin that would let me run background tasks without the need to connect it to Firebase?
You can write the native android service which runs for every one minute then on first launch of your flutter app through platform channel you call the service. using shared preference you can make that platform channel service call only on first time app launch.
I need to know about how to run a background service to give notifications in cordova mobile application. I went through a plugin this but in that example when i clicked the 'Interval' option which is triggering notification for every minute when only app was opened or paused. It wasn't triggering any notification when app was killed(Swipe out from recent tasks) on background. So is there any alternative option to run the process in background in cordovaapplications
According to phonegap/Cordova documentation their is no way to run
background service because phone can not execute javascript when your
app is not running.Yet no plugin was available to perform this task
I am currently developing a todo app (android) using ionic framework which can synchronize with the pouchdb when it is connected to the internet, and also user will receive notification in background when new task has been added to the database and sync to the phone.
So if I want the user to receive the notification in background the whole app should be also running in background so that it will detect any new task sync to the phone and generate local notification to notify the user about the incoming new task.
So my question is: is it possible to make my whole cordova/ionic app or whole app.js to be running in background as a background service?
You can try to use this plugin:
https://github.com/MobileChromeApps/cordova-plugin-background-app
eventually, if you need, in conjunction with:
cordova-plugin-background-mode to manage background mode and simple notifications
cordova-toforeground to force the to come back on foreground
I want to create a service whose function will not be known forehand. When the app is started, the function (which is decided at run time) to be performed is sent from the server to the mobile.
For example, when the app runs server may ask to list all installed apps in the mobile and app replies. When developing the app we dont know that server is going to ask for installed apps. App should be able to respond to any command from the server.
Android app acts like a client to all commands from the server.
Apply the push notification, while on receive the notification, start your service with the tasks sent by the server.
