Issue Integrating Push Notification with Pivotal CF

ionic-v1
1

Plugin: phonegap-plugin-push

We have set up a Push Notification service on Pivotal CF which we will use to handle our push notification. Any API calls will be appended to the URL of our server. So far I have managed to register the app with Pivotal using POST /v1/registration which I used the registrationId I have obtained during the registration of the push notification plugin. But making a request to POST /v1/push does not work.

Expected Behaviour

For request to Pivotal CF POST /v1/push to trigger a push notification to my phone

Actual Behaviour

Requesting a push notification from POST /v1/push returns status:200 and it’s respective response payload is as per written in the [documentation](pivotal push) (refer below) but no push notification appears on my phone.

{
  "receipt_id": "673369e9-9931-41f6-8675-69d603cfa4ec",
  "schedule_id": null
}

Reproduce Scenario (including but not limited to)

Steps to Reproduce

  1. ionic start appname blank
  2. cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push --variable SENDER_ID="123456"
  3. ionic platform add ios (if somehow missing)
  4. ionic build ios
  5. Open XCode

Platform and Version (eg. Android 5.0 or iOS 9.2.1)

iOS 9.3.4

Cordova CLI version and cordova platform version

cordova --version                   6.3.1
cordova platform version ios        ios 4.2.1

Plugin version

cordova plugin version | grep phonegap-plugin-push        
-> phonegap-plugin-push 1.8.1 "PushPlugin"

Sample Push Data Payload

Not sure since Pivotal handles this

Sample Code that illustrates the problem

console.log('init registration');
var push = PushNotification.init({
  "android": {
    "senderID": "123456" // im not testing on Android (yet)
  },
  "ios": {
    "alert": "true",
    "badge": "true",
    "sound": "true"
  }
});

push.on('registration', function(data) {
  console.log('on registration');
  console.log(data);
  // data.registrationId
});

push.on('notification', function(data) {
  // data.message,
  // data.title,
  // data.count,
  // data.sound,
  // data.image,
  // data.additionalData
  console.log('on notification');
  console.log(data);
});

push.on('error', function(e) {
  //alert(e.message);
  console.log('on error');
  console.log(e);
});

Hello,
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution ?

Hi Clement.

It was just me creating the push certificates wrongly. I just had to redo it and it worked already

Cheers

Push[1843:1002573] GCM Sender ID (null)
Push[1843:1002573] Using APNS Notification
Push[1843:1002537] Push Plugin register failed

I believe this is also coz of incorrect certificates

I redo all my certificates for development. My iOS Provisioning Profiles for developement is active.
But I still have this error :frowning:…

Thanks for you help @xavianaxw
