I am developing an application which is having push notification functionality. I followed the following link as Android Push Notification
I tried and successfully send URL and open the web page on click of notification by doing the following change in code of generateNotification().
/**
* Issues a notification to inform the user that server has sent a message.
*/
private static void generateNotification(Context context, String message) {
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Notification notification = new Notification(R.drawable.ic_launcher, "Message received", System.currentTimeMillis());
// Hide the notification after its selected
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
//adding LED lights to notification
notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS;
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(message));
//startActivity(browserIntent);
//PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 0);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, "Message", "New message received", pendingIntent);
notificationManager.notify(0, notification);
I am able to send the data with the help of push notification from the server.
Now i want to perform following tasks:
Send JSON data via push notification.
Save the data into SQLite database.
Open new activity on click of push notification.
Display data coming from push notification of new activity.
If the application is closed so after click on notification the app get started.
So please guide me what steps should i follow to perform the above task.
GCMIntentService.java
import com.google.android.gcm.GCMBaseIntentService;
import com.google.android.gcm.GCMRegistrar;
import android.app.Notification;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;

ServerUtilities.unregister(context, registrationId);
} else {
// This callback results from the call to unregister made on

}
}
@Override

displayMessage(context, message);
// notifies user
generateNotification(context,message );
}
@Override

Log.i(TAG, "Received deleted messages notification");
String message = ("total deleted"+ total);
displayMessage(context, message);
// notifies user
generateNotification(context, message);
}
@Override
public void onError(Context context, String errorId) {

}
@Override
protected boolean onRecoverableError(Context context, String errorId) {
// log message
Log.i(TAG, "Received recoverable error: " + errorId);
displayMessage(context, ("Recover error:"+ errorId));
return super.onRecoverableError(context, errorId);
}
/**

*/
private static void generateNotification(Context context, String message) {
int icon = R.drawable.icon;
long when = System.currentTimeMillis();
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Notification notification = new Notification(icon, "Dear Customer , New Product has been Launched", when);
Uri soundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
notification.sound=soundUri;
String title = context.getString(R.string.app_name);
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(context, lap_gcm.class);
notificationIntent.putExtra("message", message);
// set intent so it does not start a new activity
notificationIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
PendingIntent intent =
PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, notificationIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, title, message, intent);
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notificationManager.notify(0, notification);
}
}
Result Activity
lap_gcm.java
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.webkit.WebView;
public class lap_gcm extends Activity{
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
String message=getIntent().getStringExtra("message");
//Here is Your message
}
}
This code base on the blog you mention i used in one of my application i develop. This will show notification on new notification receive and open a new activity when the user clicked the notification.
Always send don't send all data through push notification. u just send some small message like data then pull the data from the server, once the message received in your device, then store it in db.
Send JSON data via push notification
You can send the JSON as data in the notification message from your server side code. Once you get the notification then you would receive a JSON in the message where you can do whatever you want.
Save the data into SQLite database
This is simple as per your requirement, you can insert the data whatever received in the JSON. You can get the data from the JSON after parsing.
Open new activity on click of push notification.
You can do like below
mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager)
this.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0,
new Intent(this, YourActivity.class), 0);
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_stat_gcm)
.setContentTitle("GCM Notification")
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
.bigText(msg))
.setContentText(msg);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.notify(NOTIFICATION_ID, mBuilder.build());
Display data coming from push notification of new activity.
You can display the data whatever receive from push message but you have to parse the JSON.
If the application is closed so after click on notification the app get started.
My above code will work for you in this case also.
See here for JSON parsing : http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/AndroidJSON/article.html
All in all, you have to add the data in the JSON form in your server cod that you would get when you push the GCM from the server and later perform parse the JSON and do whatever you want.
