A library to subscribe to GCM/FCM and receive notifications within a node process.
- I want to receive push notifications sent using Firebase Cloud Messaging in an electron desktop application.
- I want to communicate with a node process/server using Firebase Cloud Messaging infrastructure.
- I want to send push notifications (use the firebase SDK instead)
- My application is running on a FCM supported platform (Android, iOS, Web).
npm i -S @eneris/push-receiver
- Node v16 (async/await/randomUUID support)
- Firebase sender id to receive notification
- Firebase serverKey to send notification (optional)
- https://github.com/MatthieuLemoine - for creating initial module on wich uppon in iterated
interface ClientConfig {
credentials?: Credentials // Will be generated if missing - save this after first use!
persistentIds?: PersistentId[] // Default - []
bundleId?: string // Default - 'receiver.push.com'
chromeId?: string // Default - 'org.chromium.linux'
chromeVersion?: string // Default - '94.0.4606.51'
debug?: boolean // Enables debug console logs
heartbeatIntervalMs?: number // Default - 5 * 60 * 1000
firebase: FirebaseConfig // Full client firebase credentials are now needed
}import { PushReceiver } from '@eneris/push-receiver'
(async () => {
const instance = new PushReceiver({
debug: true,
persistentIds: [], // Recover stored ids of all previous notifications
firebase: {
// ...Firebase web credentials
},
credentials: null, // Insert credentials here after the first run
})
const stopListeningToCredentials = instance.onCredentialsChanged(({ oldCredentials, newCredentials }) => {
console.log('Client generated new credentials.', newCredentials)
// Save them somewhere! And decide if thing are needed to re-subscribe
})
const stopListeningToNotifications = instance.onNotification(notification => {
// Do someting with the notification
console.log('Notification received', notification)
})
await instance.connect()
await instance.connect()
console.log('connected')
const sender = new PushSender({
// Firebase service account credentials here
})
console.log('server created')
await sender.testMessage(instance.config.credentials.fcm.token)
console.log('message sent')
stopListeningToCredentials()
stopListeningToNotifications()
instance.destroy()
})()
