You will need to have Play! framework instelled to run the server. Before starting the server you must update API_KEY in GCMFactory with the value of your server API key. You can generate this key for your project in your Google Cloud Dashboard (more info here).

This app can be deployed to Heroku.

• http://localhost:9000/send - form allowing you to send message to all registered devices
• http://localhost:9000/register - send POST request to this address from your app to register device (see below).
