The library was inspired by Apns4erl
The older version of the library is available in 0.0.x-stable
branch
-
Add apns to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
def deps do [{:apns, "~> 0.9.1"}] end
-
Ensure apns is started before your application:
def application do [applications: [:apns]] end
Config the APNS app and define pools
config :apns,
# Here goes "global" config applied as default to all pools started if not overwritten by pool-specific value
callback_module: APNS.Callback,
timeout: 30,
feedback_interval: 1200,
support_old_ios: true,
expiry: 60,
# Here are pools configs. Any value from "global" config can be overwritten in any single pool config
pools: [
# app1_dev_pool is the pool_name
app1_dev_pool: [
env: :dev,
pool_size: 10,
pool_max_overflow: 0,
# and this is overwritten config key
certfile: "/path/to/app1_dev.pem"
],
app1_prod_pool: [
env: :prod,
certfile: "/path/to/app1_prod.pem",
pool_size: 100,
pool_max_overflow: 0
],
]
Name | Default value | Description |
---|---|---|
cert | nil | Plaintext APNS certfile content (not needed if certfile is specified) |
certfile | nil | Path to APNS certificate file or a tuple like {:my_app, "certs/cert.pem"} |
which will use a path relative to the priv folder of the given application (not needed if cert is specified) |
||
cert_password | nil | APNS certificate password (if any) |
key | nil | Plaintext APNS keyfile content (not needed if keyfile is specified) |
keyfile | nil | Path to APNS keyfile (not needed if key is specified) |
callback_module | APNS.Callback | This module will receive all error and feedback messages from APNS |
timeout | 30 | Connection timeout in seconds |
feedback_interval | 1200 | The app will check Apple feedback server every feedback_interval seconds |
support_old_ios | true | Push notifications are limited by 256 bytes (2kb if false), this option can be changed per message individually |
expiry | 60 | Seconds Apple will re-try to deliver the push notification* |
pools | [] | List of pools to start |
* It should be noted that Apple will always try to deliver the message at least once. If it takes longer to send the message to Apple than the expiry offset it will still be delivered.
Pool key | Description |
---|---|
env | :dev for Apple sandbox push server or :prod for Apple production push server |
pool_size | Maximum pool size |
pool_max_overflow | Maximum number of workers created if pool is empty* |
* WARNING: According to our tests a overflow other then zero is bad.
All pools defined in config will be started automatically
From here and now you can start pushing your PNs via APNS.push/2 and APNS.push/3:
message = APNS.Message.new
message = message
|> Map.put(:token, "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000")
|> Map.put(:alert, "Hello world!")
|> Map.put(:badge, 42)
|> Map.put(:extra, %{
"var1" => "val1",
"var2" => "val2"
})
APNS.push :app1_dev_pool, message
or
APNS.push :app1_prod_pool, "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000", "Hello world!"
You can define a callback handler module via config param callback_module
. The module should implement 2 functions:
error/2
which receives%APNS.Error{}
andtoken
feedback/1
which receives%APNS.Feedback{}
defmodule APNS.Callback do
def error(error = %APNS.Error{}, token) do
# handle error
end
def feedback(feedback = %APNS.Feedback{}) do
# handle feedback
end
end
- %APNS.Message{}
defstruct [

expiry: 60,
token: "",
content_available: nil,
alert: "",

]
- %APNS.Error{}
defstruct [
