I'd like to implement push notifications in android ?
I prefer not to use an existing plugins
would someone give me an example of code on how to send a message
have been struggling since a week none of my tries have been successfull
This is my last try:
gcm.py
import requests
import json
def send_gcm_message(api_key, regs_id, data, collapse_key=None):
"""
Send a GCM message for one or more devices, using json data
api_key: The API_KEY from your console (https://code.google.com/apis/console, locate Key for Server Apps in
Google Cloud Messaging for Android)
regs_id: A list with the devices which will be receiving a message
data: The dict data which will be send
collapse_key: A string to group messages, look at the documentation about it:
http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/gcm.html#request
"""
values = {
'registration_ids': regs_id,
'collapse_key': collapse_key,
'data': data
}
values = json.dumps(values)
headers = {
'UserAgent': "GCM-Server",
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'key=' + api_key,
}
response = requests.post(url="https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send",
data=values,
headers=headers)
return response.content
views.py
import settings
from .gcm import send_gcm_message
@render_to("push/envoyer_message.html")
def send_message(request):
if not request.user.is_authenticated():
return HttpResponseRedirect('/client/login')
else:
if request.method == 'POST':
form = MessageForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
reg_id='APA91bFSIEHPOeT2I7ddCqnYtnJ-iAEQfCiR3HArUIz0t5lQUVfIOGhlEIUJCJLY7SWEdwiJCHedLNaSFi6oVqbnsci9-HmpBNiZAa86KD3349AIWMesweUqF2YbfpSBRot1tNLCITRFbYH9g5AO514s8Zzs4ABumA'
msg='test'
send = send_gcm_message(api_key = settings.GCM_APIKEY, regs_id=[reg_id], data={'msg': msg},collapse_key="message")
messages.success(request, _(u'Formulaire envoyé avec succès.'))
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("push-confirmation-envoi"))
else:
form = MessageForm()
return locals()
EDIT:
This is the error I get :
Field "data" must be a JSON array: test www
