Pusher Beams Ruby Server SDK

Test Coverage Status Gem

Pusher Beams using the Pusher system.

Installation

gem install pusher-push-notifications

Or add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'pusher-push-notifications'

Configuration

This configuration can be done anywhere you want, but if you are using rails the better place to put it is inside an initializer

require 'pusher/push_notifications'

Pusher::PushNotifications.configure do |config|
  config.instance_id = ENV['PUSHER_INSTANCE_ID'] # or the value directly
  config.secret_key = ENV['PUSHER_SECRET_KEY']
end

Where instance_id and secret_key are the values of the instance you created in the Pusher Beams dashboard.

If multiple clients are needed, store the reference that is returned from the configure method.

Usage

After the configuration is done you can push notifications like this:

require 'pusher/push_notifications'

data = {
  apns: {
    aps: {
      alert: {
        title: 'Hello',
        body: 'Hello, world!'
      }
    }
  },
  fcm: {
    notification: {
      title: 'Hello',
      body: 'Hello, world!'
    }
  }
}

# Publish the given 'data' to the specified interests.
Pusher::PushNotifications.publish_to_interests(interests: ['hello'], payload: data)

# Publish the given 'data' to the specified users.
Pusher::PushNotifications.publish_to_users(users: ['jonathan', 'jordan', 'luis', 'luka', 'mina'], payload: data)

# Authenticate User
Pusher::PushNotifications.generate_token(user: 'Elmo')

# Delete User
Pusher::PushNotifications.delete_user(user: 'Elmo')

The return of this call is a ruby struct containing the http status code (status) the response body (content) and an ok? attribute saying if the notification was successful or not.

NOTE: It's optional but you can insert a data key at the same level of the aps and notification keys with a custom value (A json for example), but keep in mind that you have the limitation of 10kb per message.
