I'm creating a NodeJS application that should receive notifications from FCM. I've seen in the FCM documentation that you can send, but not receive notifications in the current version.
I've already searched alternatives for FCM, like pushy but seems that they have the same problem, only send notifications, not receive.
Currently I'm poling a REST api every 30 seconds to check for changes but obviously this is not the perfect scenario.
Is there any opensource or commercial solution that can receive notifications from a service, similar to firebase?
I find
https://github.com/MatthieuLemoine/push-receiver for node
and https://github.com/Francesco149/push_receiver for python

As per documentation from Apple (at WWDC session "Advances in App Background Execution"), "Repeatedly failing to report calls may prevent your app from receiving any more incoming call notifications." so in this case ,
1) How can we find out wether my app stop receiving any more incoming call notifications? is this data will present anywhere in console?
2) How can we do that work again?
One of my application stop receiving the voip notification from last week. Now i have updated my code base as per the documentation but still i am not getting any Voip notification.
You can follow this , we also had the same problem. The solution is here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/pushkit/responding_to_voip_notifications_from_pushkit
I want to receive the notifications from a schedule based game and post them into a Discord channel. For example they are something like "Hey join now!" when the game is live, or updates to the games schedule.
Please go through the document for FCM to send notification from your server adn receiving at your client side.
FCM supports all major platforms.

If you have any further queries, please ask them after implementing, so that community can better help you out.
I am using Angular CLI latest version and NodeJS, want to archive web push notification, we got few documentations but gives error, May I know any Documentation for web push notification which supports angular and nodejs.
The requirements are send push notification to all users who notification granted while browser closed as well.
Sample docs :
https://ciphertrick.com/2017/03/14/browser-push-notifications-in-angular-applications/ (getting error pushNotificationModule not exported)
https://www.npmjs.com/package/angular2-notifications (Not clear for CLI)
The Angular2+ directive angular2-notifications is doing only the last part showing the message in UI/UX. And that is the least of your challenges.
You say:
The requirements are send push notification to all users who
notification granted while browser closed as well
The part 'while browser closed as well' is the tricky part.
This means you need a Service Worker. A Service Worker is a script that your browser runs in the background, to which the message is being pushed when the browser is closed. For a nice introduction to Service Workers, read this. Angular has a Service Workers implemented in production version since 5.0.0. Klik here to read more about it.
I don't think setting up a WebSocket connection (like socket.io) from Node to a Service Worker is possible. It's complicated, some people say it's possible, others say no. See this for more info. I would at least say that it is not stable enough, so you need a 'real' push notification.
You can use a push notification provider to do the job. Click here for a list of them. You pay for these services.
If you want to do it yourself (free of costs) you can use Google's cross-platform messaging solution Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) (the successor of Google Cloud Messaging (GCM)).
To connect your NodeJS server with the FCM you can use different libraries e.g. node-pushserver and many others.
My application stack is ios(front-end) and node.js(back-end). I have to send notification to devices. In my node.js part im using apns module to send notification, its working fine......
Now i have to send Mass notification like at a time consider i have 10,000 devices to notified, the logic what im following is
I'm looping through 10,000 devices and calling apns provider.
1.Why this for loop approach
I have to store each notification details in my mongodb collection, so i followed this approach.
The problem is the notification is received by some devices and that too very late(next day).
I read the link also
https://www.raywenderlich.com/156966/push-notifications-tutorial-getting-started
saying apns will reject.
Is the above approach is correct also any way to make all notification deliverer.
Please share your ideas. Thanks in advance.
If you need to process each individual notification before/after it is sent I would instead recommend a design change from a loop and have you look at job queue instead.
With this design pattern, instead of your only step being to loop over notifications and send via APN, you push these notification into a queue/messaging system and have workers which pull from the queue and process (send via APN and write to mongo) the notifications. The nice part of this design is that as your application grows you can add on more workers to handle the increased load without rewriting your application/architecture. Once you have it built it may look something like this:
I personally use RabbitMQ for my job queue, but that decision is something you need to research on your own. For example if you don't want to manage the messaging system you could look into something like AWS Simple Queue Service.
I think looping through 10,000 devices ids and calling APNS provider is not the right way forward. The documentations strictly says here node-apn readme file to reuse apn.Provider rather than recreate it every time to achieve the best possible performance.
If you send notification using arrays of device ids rather than just a device id then you will get a response from the APNS mentioning all the details for each device.
I want to develop a chat application in iphone. I'm using ejabberd xmpp server. Now i'm able to send message to other user.
Now i want to receive the message with push notification.
I heard that we can use xmpp servers to send push notifications.
So Can anyone tell me, I want to know how
Is it possible to send push notification with ejabberd
Is it possible send push notifications from ejabberd xmpp server using node js.
Please give any suggestion to start using notifications for messages in xmpp.
If you want to send push notifications with ejabberd community edition, you need to add an ejabberd module, which sends the offline messages to a specified push notification provider. This provider send the notifications to apple APNS or googles GCM.
You could develop a module by self or maybe you will find some in inet. mod_zeropush (https://github.com/ZeroPush/mod_zeropush) would be one of them, but the zeropush service by self is canceled. Another one would be mod_onesignal (https://github.com/nobreak/mod_onesignal). OneSignal is a free to use Push Notification provider.
XMPP requires a persistent socket connection or a "persistent" BOSH connection during your whole XMPP session. Whenever your iOS app goes in background iOS kills your socket connection, and your Openfire server kills your XMPP session. This means the user goes offline. Which is also the reason why incoming messages for this user go to the offline storage.
A more straight forward approach is to do something in openfire, when openfire can't deliver a message it stores it in offline table, we can do some interception on that part and initiate the push process with the message.
