iOS manual Installation

The component uses PushNotificationIOS for the iOS part.

Please see: PushNotificationIOS

Android manual Installation

NOTE: play-service-gcm and firebase-messaging, prior to version 15 requires to have the same version number in order to work correctly at build time and at run time. To use a specific version:

In your android/build.gradle

ext {
    googlePlayServicesVersion = "<Your play services version>" // default: "+"
    firebaseVersion = "<Your Firebase version>" // default: "+"

    // Other settings
    compileSdkVersion = <Your compile SDK version> // default: 23
    buildToolsVersion = "<Your build tools version>" // default: "23.0.1"
    targetSdkVersion = <Your target SDK version> // default: 23
    supportLibVersion = "<Your support lib version>" // default: 23.1.1
}

NOTE: localNotification() works without changes in the application part, while localNotificationSchedule() only works with these changes:

In android/settings.gradle

...
include ':react-native-push-notification'
project(':react-native-push-notification').projectDir = file('../node_modules/react-native-push-notification/android')

In android/app/src/res/values/colors.xml (Create the file if it doesn't exist).

<resources>
    <color name="white">#FFF</color>
</resources>

Manually register module in MainApplication.java (if you did not use react-native link):

import com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.ReactNativePushNotificationPackage;  // <--- Import Package

public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {

  private final ReactNativeHost mReactNativeHost = new ReactNativeHost(this) {
      @Override
      protected boolean getUseDeveloperSupport() {
        return BuildConfig.DEBUG;
      }

      @Override
      protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {

      return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
          new MainReactPackage(),
          new ReactNativePushNotificationPackage() // <---- Add the Package
      );
    }
  };

  ....
}

Usage

var PushNotification = require("react-native-push-notification");

PushNotification.configure({
  // (optional) Called when Token is generated (iOS and Android)
  onRegister: function(token) {
    console.log("TOKEN:", token);
  },

  // (required) Called when a remote or local notification is opened or received
  onNotification: function(notification) {
    console.log("NOTIFICATION:", notification);

    // process the notification

    // required on iOS only (see fetchCompletionHandler docs: https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-push-notification-ios)
    notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData);
  },

  // ANDROID ONLY: GCM or FCM Sender ID (product_number) (optional - not required for local notifications, but is need to receive remote push notifications)
  senderID: "YOUR GCM (OR FCM) SENDER ID",

  // IOS ONLY (optional): default: all - Permissions to register.
  permissions: {
    alert: true,
    badge: true,
    sound: true
  },

  // Should the initial notification be popped automatically
  // default: true
  popInitialNotification: true,

  /**
   * (optional) default: true
   * - Specified if permissions (ios) and token (android and ios) will requested or not,
   * - if not, you must call PushNotificationsHandler.requestPermissions() later
   */
  requestPermissions: true
});

Example app

Example folder contains an example app to demonstrate how to use this package. The notification Handling is done in NotifService.js. For Remote notifications, configure your SenderId in app.json. You can also edit it directly in the app. To send Push notifications, you can use the online tool PushWatch.

Please test your PRs with this example app before submitting them. It'll help maintaining this repo.

Handling Notifications

When any notification is opened or received the callback onNotification is called passing an object with the notification data.

Notification object example:

{
    foreground: false, // BOOLEAN: If the notification was received in foreground or not
    userInteraction: false, // BOOLEAN: If the notification was opened by the user from the notification area or not
    message: 'My Notification Message', // STRING: The notification message
    data: {}, // OBJECT: The push data
}

Local Notifications

PushNotification.localNotification(details: Object)

EXAMPLE:

PushNotification.localNotification({
    /* Android Only Properties */
    id: '0', // (optional) Valid unique 32 bit integer specified as string. default: Autogenerated Unique ID
    ticker: "My Notification Ticker", // (optional)
    autoCancel: true, // (optional) default: true

    playSound: false, // (optional) default: true
    soundName: 'default', // (optional) Sound to play when the notification is shown. Value of 'default' plays the default sound. It can be set to a custom sound such as 'android.resource://com.xyz/raw/my_sound'. It will look for the 'my_sound' audio file in 'res/raw' directory and play it. default: 'default' (default sound is played)
    number: '10', // (optional) Valid 32 bit integer specified as string. default: none (Cannot be zero)

});

Scheduled Notifications

PushNotification.localNotificationSchedule(details: Object)

EXAMPLE:

PushNotification.localNotificationSchedule({
  //... You can use all the options from localNotifications
  message: "My Notification Message", // (required)
  date: new Date(Date.now() + 60 * 1000) // in 60 secs
});

Custom sounds

In android, add your custom sound file to [project_root]/android/app/src/main/res/raw

In iOS, add your custom sound file to the project Resources in xCode.

In the location notification json specify the full file name:

soundName: 'my_sound.mp3'

Cancelling notifications

1) cancelLocalNotifications

Android

The id parameter for PushNotification.localNotification is required for this operation. The id supplied will then be used for the cancel operation.

// Android
PushNotification.localNotification({
    ...
    id: '123'
    ...
});
PushNotification.cancelLocalNotifications({id: '123'});

Notification priority

(optional) Specify priority to set priority of notification. Default value: "high"

Available options:

"max" = NotficationCompat.PRIORITY_MAX
"high" = NotficationCompat.PRIORITY_HIGH
"low" = NotficationCompat.PRIORITY_LOW
"min" = NotficationCompat.PRIORITY_MIN
"default" = NotficationCompat.PRIORITY_DEFAULT

More information: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Notification.html#PRIORITY_DEFAULT

Notification visibility

(optional) Specify visibility to set visibility of notification. Default value: "private"

Available options:

"private" = NotficationCompat.VISIBILITY_PRIVATE
"public" = NotficationCompat.VISIBILITY_PUBLIC
"secret" = NotficationCompat.VISIBILITY_SECRET

More information: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Notification.html#VISIBILITY_PRIVATE

Notification importance

(optional) Specify importance to set importance of notification. Default value: "high"

Available options:

"default" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT
"max" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_MAX
"high" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH
"low" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_LOW
"min" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_MIN
"none" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_NONE
"unspecified" = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_UNSPECIFIED

More information: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/NotificationManager#IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT

IOS

The userInfo parameter for PushNotification.localNotification is required for this operation and must contain an id parameter. The id supplied will then be used for the cancel operation.

// IOS
PushNotification.localNotification({
    ...
    userInfo: { id: '123' }
    ...
});
PushNotification.cancelLocalNotifications({id: '123'});

2) cancelAllLocalNotifications

PushNotification.cancelAllLocalNotifications()

Cancels all scheduled notifications AND clears the notifications alerts that are in the notification centre.

NOTE: there is currently no api for removing specific notification alerts from the notification centre.

Repeating Notifications

(optional) Specify repeatType and optionally repeatTime while scheduling the local notification. Check the local notification example above.

Property repeatType could be one of month, week, day, hour, minute, time. If specified as time, it should be accompanied by one more parameter repeatTime which should the number of milliseconds between each interval.

Notification Actions

(Android only) Refer to this issue to see an example of a notification action.

Two things are required to setup notification actions.

1) Specify notification actions for a notification

This is done by specifying an actions parameters while configuring the local notification. This is an array of strings where each string is a notification action that will be presented with the notification.

For e.g. actions: '["Accept", "Reject"]' // Must be in string format

The array itself is specified in string format to circumvent some problems because of the way JSON arrays are handled by react-native android bridge.

2) Specify handlers for the notification actions

For each action specified in the actions field, we need to add a handler that is called when the user clicks on the action. This can be done in the componentWillMount of your main app file or in a separate file which is imported in your main app file. Notification actions handlers can be configured as below:

import PushNotificationAndroid from 'react-native-push-notification'

(function() {
  // Register all the valid actions for notifications here and add the action handler for each action
  PushNotificationAndroid.registerNotificationActions(['Accept','Reject','Yes','No']);
  DeviceEventEmitter.addListener('notificationActionReceived', function(action){
    console.log ('Notification action received: ' + action);
    const info = JSON.parse(action.dataJSON);
    if (info.action == 'Accept') {
      // Do work pertaining to Accept action here
    } else if (info.action == 'Reject') {
      // Do work pertaining to Reject action here
    }
    // Add all the required actions handlers
  });
})();

For iOS, you can use this package to add notification actions.

Set application badge icon

PushNotification.setApplicationIconBadgeNumber(number: number)

Works natively in iOS.

Uses the ShortcutBadger on Android, and as such will not work on all Android devices.

Sending Notification Data From Server

Same parameters as PushNotification.localNotification()

Android Only Methods

PushNotification.subscribeToTopic(topic: string) Subscribe to a topic (works only with Firebase)

Checking Notification Permissions

PushNotification.checkPermissions(callback: Function) Check permissions

callback will be invoked with a permissions object:

• alert: boolean
• badge: boolean
• sound: boolean

iOS Only Methods

PushNotification.getApplicationIconBadgeNumber(callback: Function) Get badge number

PushNotification.abandonPermissions() Abandon permissions
