- Supports persistent connections to APNs
- Supports VoIP/PushKit notifications (iOS 8 and later)
- Fast, modular & easy to use
- Tested and working in APNs production environment
Install
go get -u github.com/sideshow/apns2
If you are running the test suite you will also need to install testify:
go get -u github.com/stretchr/testify
Example
package main
import (
"log"
"fmt"
"github.com/sideshow/apns2"
"github.com/sideshow/apns2/certificate"
)
func main() {
cert, err := certificate.FromP12File("../cert.p12", "")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal("Cert Error:", err)
}
notification := &apns2.Notification{}
notification.DeviceToken = "11aa01229f15f0f0c52029d8cf8cd0aeaf2365fe4cebc4af26cd6d76b7919ef7"
notification.Topic = "com.sideshow.Apns2"
notification.Payload = []byte(`{"aps":{"alert":"Hello!"}}`) // See Payload section below
client := apns2.NewClient(cert).Production()
res, err := client.Push(notification)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal("Error:", err)
}
fmt.Printf("%v %v %v\n", res.StatusCode, res.ApnsID, res.Reason)
}
Notification
At a minimum, a Notification needs a DeviceToken, a Topic and a Payload.
notification := &apns2.Notification{
DeviceToken: "11aa01229f15f0f0c52029d8cf8cd0aeaf2365fe4cebc4af26cd6d76b7919ef7",
Topic: "com.sideshow.Apns2",
Payload: []byte(`{"aps":{"alert":"Hello!"}}`),
}
You can also set an optional ApnsID, Expiration or Priority.
notification.ApnsID = "40636A2C-C093-493E-936A-2A4333C06DEA"
notification.Expiration = time.Now()
notification.Priority = apns2.PriorityLow
Payload
You can use raw bytes for the notification.Payload as above, or you can use the payload builder package which makes it easy to construct APNs payloads.
// {"aps":{"alert":"hello","badge":1},"key":"val"}
payload := apns2.NewPayload().Alert("hello").Badge(1).Custom("key", "val")
notification.Payload = payload
client.Push(notification)
Refer to the payload docs for more info.
Response, Error handling
APNS/2 draws the distinction between a valid response from Apple indicating whether or not the Notification was sent or not, and an unrecoverable or unexpected Error;
- An
Erroris returned if a non-recoverable error occurs, i.e. if there is a problem with the underlying http.Client connection or Certificate, the payload was not sent, or a valid Response was not received. - A
Responseis returned if the payload was successfully sent to Apple and a documented response was received. This struct will contain more information about whether or not the push notification succeeded, its apns-id and if applicable, more information around why it did not succeed.
To check if a Notification was successfully sent;
res, err := client.Push(notification)
if err != nil {
log.Println("There was an error", err)
return
}
if res.Sent() {
log.Println("Sent:", res.ApnsID)
} else {
fmt.Printf("Not Sent: %v %v %v\n", res.StatusCode, res.ApnsID, res.Reason)
}
Context & Timeouts
For better control over request cancelations and timeouts APNS/2 supports contexts. Using a context can be helpful if you want to cancel all pushes when the parent process is cancelled, or need finer grained control over individual push timeouts. See the Google post for more information on contexts.
ctx, cancel = context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 10 * time.Second)
res, err := client.PushWithContext(ctx, notification)
defer cancel()
Command line tool
APNS/2 has a command line tool that can be installed with go get github.com/sideshow/apns2/apns2. Usage:
apns2 --help
usage: apns2 --certificate-path=CERTIFICATE-PATH --topic=TOPIC [<flags>]
Listens to STDIN to send notifications and writes APNS response code and reason to STDOUT.
The expected format is: <DeviceToken> <APNS Payload>
Example: aff0c63d9eaa63ad161bafee732d5bc2c31f66d552054718ff19ce314371e5d0 {"aps": {"alert": "hi"}}
Flags:
--help Show context-sensitive help (also try --help-long and --help-man).
-c, --certificate-path=CERTIFICATE-PATH
Path to certificate file.
-t, --topic=TOPIC The topic of the remote notification, which is typically the bundle ID for your app
-m, --mode="production" APNS server to send notifications to. `production` or `development`. Defaults to `production`
--version Show application version.

Functions ¶
This section is empty.
Types ¶
type Client ¶
type Client struct {
HTTPClient *http.Client
Certificate tls.Certificate
Host string
}
Client represents a connection with the APNs
func NewClient ¶
func NewClient(certificate tls.Certificate) *Client
NewClient returns a new Client with an underlying http.Client configured with the correct APNs HTTP/2 transport settings. It does not connect to the APNs until the first Notification is sent via the Push method.
As per the Apple APNs Provider API, you should keep a handle on this client so that you can keep your connections with APNs open across multiple notifications; don’t repeatedly open and close connections. APNs treats rapid connection and disconnection as a denial-of-service attack.
If your use case involves multiple long-lived connections, consider using the ClientManager, which manages clients for you.
func (*Client) Development ¶
Development sets the Client to use the APNs development push endpoint.
func (*Client) Production ¶
Production sets the Client to use the APNs production push endpoint.
func (*Client) Push ¶
func (c *Client) Push(n *Notification) (*Response, error)
Push sends a Notification to the APNs gateway. If the underlying http.Client is not currently connected, this method will attempt to reconnect transparently before sending the notification. It will return a Response indicating whether the notification was accepted or rejected by the APNs gateway, or an error if something goes wrong.
Use PushWithContext if you need better cancelation and timeout control.
func (*Client) PushWithContext ¶
func (c *Client) PushWithContext(ctx Context, n *Notification) (*Response, error)
PushWithContext sends a Notification to the APNs gateway. Context carries a deadline and a cancelation signal and allows you to close long running requests when the context timeout is exceeded. Context can be nil, for backwards compatibility.
If the underlying http.Client is not currently connected, this method will attempt to reconnect transparently before sending the notification. It will return a Response indicating whether the notification was accepted or rejected by the APNs gateway, or an error if something goes wrong.
type ClientManager ¶
type ClientManager struct {
// MaxSize is the maximum number of clients allowed in the manager. When
// this limit is reached, the least recently used client is evicted. Set
// zero for no limit.
MaxSize int
// MaxAge is the maximum age of clients in the manager. Upon retrieval, if
// a client has remained unused in the manager for this duration or longer,
// it is evicted and nil is returned. Set zero to disable this
// functionality.
MaxAge time.Duration
// Factory is the function which constructs clients if not found in the
// manager.
Factory func(certificate tls.Certificate) *Client
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
ClientManager is a way to manage multiple connections to the APNs.
func NewClientManager ¶
func NewClientManager() *ClientManager
NewClientManager returns a new ClientManager for prolonged, concurrent usage of multiple APNs clients. ClientManager is flexible enough to work best for your use case. When a client is not found in the manager, Get will return the result of calling Factory, which can be a Client or nil.
Having multiple clients per certificate in the manager is not allowed.
By default, MaxSize is 64, MaxAge is 10 minutes, and Factory always returns a Client with default options.
func (*ClientManager) Add ¶
func (m *ClientManager) Add(client *Client)
Add adds a Client to the manager. You can use this to individually configure Clients in the manager.
func (*ClientManager) Get ¶
func (m *ClientManager) Get(certificate tls.Certificate) *Client
Get gets a Client from the manager. If a Client is not found in the manager or if a Client has remained in the manager longer than MaxAge, Get will call the ClientManager's Factory function, store the result in the manager if non-nil, and return it.
func (*ClientManager) Len ¶
func (m *ClientManager) Len() int
Len returns the current size of the ClientManager.
type Context ¶
A Context carries a deadline, a cancelation signal, and other values across API boundaries.
Context's methods may be called by multiple goroutines simultaneously.
type Notification ¶
type Notification struct {
// An optional canonical UUID that identifies the notification. The canonical
// form is 32 lowercase hexadecimal digits, displayed in five groups separated
// by hyphens in the form 8-4-4-4-12. An example UUID is as follows:
//
// 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-42665544000
//
// If you don't set this, a new UUID is created by APNs and returned in the
// response.
ApnsID string
// A string which allows multiple notifications with the same collapse identifier
// to be displayed to the user as a single notification. The value should not
// exceed 64 bytes.
CollapseID string
// A string containing hexadecimal bytes of the device token for the target device.
DeviceToken string
// The topic of the remote notification, which is typically the bundle ID for
// your app. The certificate you create in the Apple Developer Member Center
// must include the capability for this topic. If your certificate includes
// multiple topics, you must specify a value for this header. If you omit this
// header and your APNs certificate does not specify multiple topics, the APNs
// server uses the certificate’s Subject as the default topic.
Topic string
// An optional time at which the notification is no longer valid and can be
// discarded by APNs. If this value is in the past, APNs treats the
// notification as if it expires immediately and does not store the
// notification or attempt to redeliver it. If this value is left as the
// default (ie, Expiration.IsZero()) an expiration header will not added to the
// http request.
Expiration time.Time
// The priority of the notification. Specify ether apns.PriorityHigh (10) or
// apns.PriorityLow (5) If you don't set this, the APNs server will set the
// priority to 10.
Priority int
// A byte array containing the JSON-encoded payload of this push notification.
// Refer to "The Remote Notification Payload" section in the Apple Local and
// Remote Notification Programming Guide for more info.
Payload interface{}
}
Notification represents the the data and metadata for a APNs Remote Notification.
func (*Notification) MarshalJSON ¶
func (n *Notification) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)
MarshalJSON converts the notification payload to JSON.
type Response ¶
type Response struct {
// The HTTP status code retuened by APNs.
// A 200 value indicates that the notification was successfully sent.
// For a list of other possible status codes, see table 6-4 in the Apple Local
// and Remote Notification Programming Guide.
StatusCode int
// The APNs error string indicating the reason for the notification failure (if
// any). The error code is specified as a string. For a list of possible
// values, see the Reason constants above.
// If the notification was accepted, this value will be "".
Reason string
// The APNs ApnsID value from the Notification. If you didn't set an ApnsID on the
// Notification, this will be a new unique UUID which has been created by APNs.
ApnsID string
// If the value of StatusCode is 410, this is the last time at which APNs
// confirmed that the device token was no longer valid for the topic.
Timestamp Time
}
Response represents a result from the APNs gateway indicating whether a notification was accepted or rejected and (if applicable) the metadata surrounding the rejection.
