spire-fcm is a Node.JS module for Firebase Cloud Messaging based on yodel-gcm, a fork of node-gcm.
$ npm install spire-fcm
var fcm = require('spire-fcm');
// Create a message
// ... with default values
var message = new fcm.Message();
// ... or some given values
var message = new fcm.Message({
collapseKey: 'demo',
timeToLive: 3,
data: {
key1: 'message1',
key2: 'message2'
}
});
// Change the message data
// ... as key-value
message.addData('key1','message1');
message.addData('key2','message2');
// ... or as a data object (overwrites previous data object)
message.addData({
key1: 'message1',
key2: 'message2'
});
// Change the message variables
message.collapseKey = 'demo';
message.timeToLive = 3;
message.dryRun = true;
// Set up the sender with you API key
var sender = new fcm.Sender('insert Firebase Messaging Token here');
// Add the registration IDs of the devices you want to send to
var registrationIds = [];
registrationIds.push('regId1');
registrationIds.push('regId2');
// Send the message
// ... trying only once
sender.sendNoRetry(message, registrationIds, function(err, result) {
if(err) console.error(err);
else console.log(result);
});
// ... or retrying
sender.send(message, registrationIds, function (err, result) {
if(err) console.error(err);
else console.log(result);
});
// ... or retrying a specific number of times (10)
sender.send(message, registrationIds, 10, function (err, result) {
if(err) console.error(err);
else console.log(result);
});
User notifications were initially introduced at Google I/O 2013 and became available to all developers in late 2014. At its core, user notifications provide developers a way to associate multiple devices to a single key (often associated with an individual app user). This adds a layer of notification key management but potentially removes the burden of maintaining a local list of all registration IDs for a particular user. Using notification keys also opens up the possibility of implementing upstream messaging. Further explanation can be found within the Official GCM User Notification docs. If you are new to user notifications, it is highly recommended that you read this guide for implementing User Notifications which explains some key points unmentioned in the official documentation.
var fcm = require('spire-fcm');
// Create an operation runner for performing notification key operations
var opRunner = new gcm.OperationRunner(
'insert Sender ID here',
'insert Firebase Messaging Token here'
);
// Define a 'create' operation for creating a notification key
var createOperation = new fcm.Operation({
operationType: 'create',
notificationKeyName: 'appUser-Chris',
registrationTokens: ['regId1', 'regId2']
});
// Run the 'create' operation
opRunner.performOperation(createOperation, function(err, result) {
if (err) console.error(err);
if (result.notification_key) {
// Store the notification key for later use.
// Each successful operation returns a notification_key, and
// it is recommended that the stored notification key be updated
// with the returned value.
} else {
console.error('Did not receive notification key');
}
});
Create: Creates a new notification key with provided registration tokens
var createOperation = new fcm.Operation({
operationType: 'create',
notificationKeyName: 'appUser-Chris',
registrationTokens: ['regId1', 'regId2']
});
Add: Adds new registration tokens to an existing notification key
// Set recreateKeyIfMissing to true if you want to automatically retry as a
// create operation if FCM has deleted your original notification key.
var addOperation = new fcm.Operation({
operationType: 'add',
notificationKeyName: 'appUser-Chris',
notificationKey: 'yourlongnotificationkeystring',
registrationIds: ['regId2', 'regId3'],
recreateKeyIfMissing: true
});
Remove: Removes registration tokens from an existing notification key
// A notification key will be automatically deleted if all registration tokens are removed.
var addOperation = new fcm.Operation({
operationType: 'remove',
notificationKeyName: 'appUser-Chris',
notificationKey: 'yournotificationkey',
registrationIds: ['regId3']
});
Sending a message using a notification key is nearly identical to sending a message with a registration ID array. However, rather than using Sender
, you must use UserNotificationSender
.
// Create a message
var message = new fcm.Message({data: {...}});
// Initiate a UserNotificationSender
var userSender = new fcm.UserNotificationSender('insert Firebase Messaging Token here');
userSender.send(message, 'yournotificationkey', function(err, results) {
if (err) console.error(err);
// Do something upon successful operation
});
To enable debug mode (print requests and responses to and from FCM),
set the DEBUG
environment flag when running your app (assuming you use node app.js
to run your app):
DEBUG=spire-fcm node app.js
