Twilio Notifications starter iOS application in ObjC

This application should give you a ready-made starting point for writing your own notification-integrated apps with Twilio Notifications. Before we begin, you need to collected the credentials to run the notifications web app.

You can download the Node notifications web app from here. ##Setting up the web app Edit config.json with the four configuration parameters we gathered from above.

Next, we need to install our dependencies from npm:

npm install

Now we should be all set! Run the application using the npm command.

npm start

Your application should now be running at http://localhost:3000.

##Please Note You'll need to test this on the device, since the iOS simulator can't receive notifications. To test on device, your server will need to be on the public Internet. For this, you might consider using a solution like ngrok.

After downloading or cloning the app, in a terminal window enter the following

'pod install'

This will install the necessary dependency (AFNetworking). Once it's installed you can go ahead and open 'notification.xcworkspace'.

In the ViewController file, on this line,

static NSString * serverURL = @"http://YOUR_WEB_APP/register";

Replace the URL with the address of your server. The app uses 4 credentials to register your device for notifications.

Once you've entered your URL, you can compile & run the app. Enter in an identity in the text field that's presented. Once you tap register, the app will register your device with APNS and return a JSON response object if successful. After that, run the notify.js script in the web app repo

node notify.js YOUR_IDENTITY

To receive a notification in your app.

That's it!
