I'm adding Urban Airship push notifications to my Android app. My custom BroadcastReceiver is receiving the notifications when I send a test push. Here's the onReceive() method.
public class IntentReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if(intent == null)
return;
String action = intent.getAction();
if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_PUSH_RECEIVED)) {
int id = intent.getIntExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_NOTIFICATION_ID, 0); //Breakpoint here
Log.w("my app", "Received push notification. Alert: "
+ intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_ALERT)
+ " [NotificationID="+id+"]");
logPushExtras(intent);
} else if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_NOTIFICATION_OPENED)) {
//Other stuff here
}
Execution stops at the breakpoint (position shown in the comment) and the details are logged.
No notification is shown in the notification area though. In my other app with UA push notifications, I think this was all I did, but it doesn't seem to be working this time.
I suspect I've done something wrong in my manifest file or that I've forgotten to implement a class somewhere.
Any ideas?
Extra Info
Extended Application:
public class ExtendedApplication extends Application {
public void onCreate(){
AirshipConfigOptions options = AirshipConfigOptions.loadDefaultOptions(this);
UAirship.takeOff(this, options);
PushManager.enablePush();
PushPreferences prefs = PushManager.shared().getPreferences();
Log.e("my app", "My Application onCreate - App APID: " + prefs.getPushId());
PushManager.shared().setIntentReceiver(IntentReceiver.class);
}
}
Edit
I've tried adding
PushManager.shared().setNotificationBuilder(new BasicPushNotificationBuilder());
to my ExtendedApplication as suggested in this post.
I was sending a test push with a blank "Alert" field from the UA site. I tried with some text in there and now it works. I don't know why, but I don't think that's something that should fail silently.
Moral of the story: Don't leave your Alert field blank.

can i intercept notifications when my app is closed?
I need for set badge with this library ShortcutBadger
Thanks.
There are 3 types of notifications:
notification: Can be send from the web console or any backend, it has predefines values. If the app is open the behaviour is customizable on onMessageRecieve if the app is closed triggers a default notification.
data: a key value pair, only Strings. Can be send from any backend. The behaviour is always defined in onMessageReceived method.
notification and data: Combination of previous it will have the behaviour of a notification, the data will be available as extras once the notification is clicked in the default launcher activity. Can be send from the web console or any backend.
A push is a json called Payload which contains those objects:
payload: {
data: {...}
}
Yes, you can send yourself a data type notification it will always do what you write in the onMessageReceived method inside the MessagingService.
This doc should help you
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/concept-options?hl=es-419
If you dont have a server use Functions.
Since the default notification wont be shown, you will probably want to show your own.
If you want to also show a notification then the NotificationCompat class must be called from inside onMessageReceived. The visual notification is not related to the push message, in fact, a visual notification can be triggered by pressing a button.
For creating a visual notification, the best approach is to let Android Studio do it for you. Second click on the packages where your activities .java are, new, then selecet ui-component and there is the notification. It will create a basic template of a notification. Then use those methods inside onMessaReceived passing the info that has to be show to the user.
The docs about the class
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/app/NotificationCompat.Builder.html
And you will probably find this error
NotificationCompat.Builder deprecated in Android O
In case you never solved this, the problem is not how you are implementing it within your app, but how the JSON data payload is being sent. See this question and the respective answers for why you are not receiving the messages while they are in the background.
Very short summary is, if you are receiving the notification payload, it will never trigger in the background. If you receive the data payload without notification, you can parse and perform actions while the app is in the background.
do you mean it?
public class AppFcmMessagingsService extends FirebaseMessagingService {
private static final String TAG = "FirebaseMessageService";
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
}
#Override
public void onMessageReceived(RemoteMessage remoteMessage) {
try {
if(remoteMessage.getData().size() > 0) {
final JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(remoteMessage.getData().toString());
Log.d(TAG,"remoteMessage = " + jsonObject.toString());
int badgeCount = 1;
ShortcutBadger.applyCount(getApplicationContext(), badgeCount);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "onMessageReceived: ", e);
}
if(remoteMessage.getNotification() != null) {
int badgeCount = 1;
ShortcutBadger.applyCount(getApplicationContext(), badgeCount);
Log.d(TAG, "notification body : " + remoteMessage.getNotification().getBody());
}
}
}
I will try to show personal single notification on my phone tray, but I can't rich, so help.
I am having an issue with FireBase Cloud Messaging in which I get the Token from the device and send the notification test through the Google Firebase notification console, however, the notification is never logged nor pushed to the android virtual device. The documentation for FCM is almost exactly the code that I have below and little else in the way of what else you would have to do to get push notifications working with firebase. I have gone through all of the setup information (build.gradle additions, Installing google play services, etc...) as specified in the documentation, but still do not have messages generating. What is wrong with the code that I am not receiving my push notifications to the logcat or the device? Please let me know any further information that would be helpful. Thanks.
mRegistrationBroadcastReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.getAction().equals(Config.REGISTRATION_COMPLETE)) {
FirebaseMessaging.getInstance().subscribeToTopic(Config.TOPIC_GLOBAL);
displayFirebaseRegId();
} else if (intent.getAction().equals(Config.PUSH_NOTIFICATION))
{
String message = intent.getStringExtra("message");
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Push notification: " + message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
txtMessage.setText(message);
}
}
};
displayFirebaseRegId();
}
private void displayFirebaseRegId() {
SharedPreferences pref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences(Config.SHARED_PREF, 0);
String regId = pref.getString("regId", null);
Log.e(TAG, "Firebase reg id: " + regId);
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(regId))
txtRegId.setText("Firebase Reg Id: " + regId);
else
txtRegId.setText("Firebase Reg Id is not received yet!");
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mRegistrationBroadcastReceiver,
new IntentFilter(Config.REGISTRATION_COMPLETE));
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mRegistrationBroadcastReceiver,
new IntentFilter(Config.PUSH_NOTIFICATION));
NotificationUtils.clearNotifications(getApplicationContext());
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).unregisterReceiver(mRegistrationBroadcastReceiver);
super.onPause();
}
And I will add lib of fire base messaging is:
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.0.4'
You don't need to subscribe inside the BroadcastReceiver you can just do it inside the onTokenRefresh method in the FirebaseInstanceIdService
You don't need to get the push notification in the BroadcastReceiver, you have to do it inside the onMessageReceive in the FirebaseMessagingService
FCM is extremely unreliable with emulators, simply use a real device, I have struggled with this and in some cases I even get the notification days later when opening the emulator for other projects, test this with real phones
I want to know how to push notification with out letting user know that a push notification is received.Just my application should be aware of the notification and do the task required depended upon notification.
public class GCMIntentService extends GCMBaseIntentService
{
#Override
protected void onMessage(Context context, Intent intent)
{
Log.i(TAG, "Received message");
if (intent.getExtras().containsKey("payload"))
{
String message = intent.getExtras().getString("payload");
CommonUtilities.displayMessage(context, message);
// notifies user
//generateNotification(context, message);
}
}
}
here in this method dont notify user when the message comes.
EDIT:
this answer is applicable only if you have used GCM directly in your app implemented by yourself.
If you are using parse.com for this then you cant achieve what you have asked in question. because parse API internally notifies this user.
I am sending the push notifications with the help of Urban Airship, and getting the notifications successfully also. But when I am clicking on the notification, it is not opening my app. So what can I do for opening my app ?
and getting the following error in logcate:-
02-10 18:53:44.137: W/xxx - UALib(6840): Activity com.aaa.yyy.SplashActivity#40dcb458 was not manually added during onStart(). Call UAirship.shared().getAnalytics().activityStarted in every activity's onStart() method.
Yes after doing the Google I got the answer:-
We need to create an IntentReceiver.java class as follows:-
public class IntentReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{
private static final String logTag = "PushSample";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.i(logTag, "Received intent: " + intent.toString());
String action = intent.getAction();
if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_PUSH_RECEIVED)) {
int id = intent.getIntExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_NOTIFICATION_ID, 0);
Log.i(logTag, "Received push notification. Alert: "
+ intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_ALERT)
+ " [NotificationID="+id+"]");
logPushExtras(intent);
}else if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_NOTIFICATION_OPENED)) {
Log.i(logTag, "User clicked notification. Message: " + intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_ALERT));
logPushExtras(intent);
Intent launch = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
launch.setClass(UAirship.shared().getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class);
launch.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
UAirship.shared().getApplicationContext().startActivity(launch);
}else if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_REGISTRATION_FINISHED)) {
Log.i(logTag, "Registration complete. APID:" + intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_APID)
+ ". Valid: " + intent.getBooleanExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_REGISTRATION_VALID, false));
}
}
private void logPushExtras(Intent intent) {
Set<String> keys = intent .getExtras().keySet();
for(String key: keys){
List<String> ignoredKeys = (List<String>)Arrays.asList("collapse_key", "from", PushManager.EXTRA_NOTIFICATION_ID,PushManager.EXTRA_PUSH_ID, PushManager.EXTRA_ALERT);
if(ignoredKeys.contains(key)){
continue;
}
Log.i(logTag, "Push Notification Extra: ["+key+" : " + intent.getStringExtra(key) + "]");
} }
}
After that we need to call the following method in PushNotification.java.
Here is the code.
public class PushNotification extends Application{
#Override
public void onCreate() {
AirshipConfigOptions options = AirshipConfigOptions.loadDefaultOptions(this);
options.developmentAppKey = "xxx";
options.developmentAppSecret = "yyy";
options.productionAppKey = "zzz";
options.inProduction= false;
UAirship.takeOff(this, options);
PushManager.enablePush();
String apid = PushManager.shared().getAPID();
Logger.info("My Application onCreate - App APID: " + apid);
PushManager.shared().setIntentReceiver(IntentReceiver.class);
}
}
In response to your logcat error:
UALib(6840): Activity com.aaa.yyy.SplashActivity#40dcb458 was not manually added during onStart(). Call UAirship.shared().getAnalytics().activityStarted in every activity's onStart() method.
By default, Urban Airship turns on analyticsEnabled in the AirshipConfigOptions (see documentation).
Prior to Android API 14, you had to manually call activityStarted() in every activity's onStart() method (as the logcat warning suggests or see documentation). If your app’s minSDKVersion >= 14 (Ice Cream Sandwich), you no longer need to modify any of your activities. Make sure to set the minSDKVersion in the airshipconfig.properties in order to prevent any missing instrumented analytic warnings.
If you would like to manually instrument your class, update your Activity’s onStart and onStop methods with the following:
#Override
public void onStart() {
super.onStart();
Analytics.activityStarted(this);
}
#Override
public void onStop() {
super.onStop();
Analytics.activityStopped(this);
}
Note:
According to the UA v4 to v5 migration guide the methods to report activity started and stopped are now static (which is the sample code above). If you need to support an older version of UA, then you'd use the sample code from logcat:
UAirship.shared().getAnalytics().activityStarted(this);
How to change the notification message in Android to localised it?
I just want to change the message what I get from Urban AirShip before it will be display on notification bar?
You can using this method: PushManager.shared().setNotificationBuilder(null); and send your own notification with android notification from the SDK
Yes you can modify the message once you receive the message from Urban AirShip for your internal use in the app but can't show the modified message in the notification bar.
You can check the message in your IntentReceiver
public class IntentReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private static final String logTag = "Hey";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.i(logTag, "Received intent: " + intent.toString());
String action = intent.getAction();
if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_PUSH_RECEIVED)) {
int id = intent.getIntExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_NOTIFICATION_ID, 0);
Log.v(logTag, "Received push notification. Alert: " + intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_ALERT)
+ ". Payload: " + intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_STRING_EXTRA) + ". NotificationID="+id);
//can get your message here
} else if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_NOTIFICATION_OPENED)) {
Log.v(logTag, "User clicked notification. Message: " + intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_ALERT)+ ".Payload:" + intent.getStringExtra("PushManager.EXTRA_STRING_EXTRA"));
Intent launch = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
UAirship.shared().getApplicationContext().startActivity(launch);
} else if (action.equals(PushManager.ACTION_REGISTRATION_FINISHED)) {
Log.i(logTag, "Registration complete. APID:" + intent.getStringExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_APID)
+ ". Valid: " + intent.getBooleanExtra(PushManager.EXTRA_REGISTRATION_VALID, false));
}
}
}
I found the solution, its kind a dirty one, but right know I need to use this.
Just after get notification from Urban AirShip I cancel all and send my own with changed message.
I read the answers and came up with a combined solution.
You want to disable UrbanAirship's default notification handler. If you do that, it won't generate and show you the notifications at all.
PushManager.shared().setNotificationBuilder(null); (Using David T's suggestion)
You want to build your own notification. This can be done inside your IntentReceiver. This link will do the trick.
Hope this helps others.
Please using that code to disable Urban Airship's notifications, override BasicPushNotificationBuilder:
BasicPushNotificationBuilder nb = new BasicPushNotificationBuilder() {
#Override
public Notification buildNotification(String alert,
Map<String, String> extras) {
return null;
}
};
// Disable notifications
PushManager.shared().setNotificationBuilder(nb);
