I want to set up a simple CKSubscription
that notifies me a recordType
was created, how?
After experimenting a while this is how to setup a minimal CKSubscription. You have to test it on Device, push notification does not work on simulator. You can add record in Dashboard, that will trigger push notification too.
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?) -> Bool {
application.registerUserNotificationSettings(UIUserNotificationSettings(forTypes: .Alert, categories: nil))
application.registerForRemoteNotifications()
return true
}
func someFunc() { // <- you need to call once in app life time, and again when it was removed / installed
let defaultContainer = CKContainer.defaultContainer()
let publicDatabase = defaultContainer.publicCloudDatabase
let subs = CKSubscription(recordType: "xxx", predicate: NSPredicate(value: true), subscriptionID: "yyy", options: .FiresOnRecordCreation)
subs.notificationInfo = CKNotificationInfo()
subs.notificationInfo.alertBody = "New item added"
publicDatabase.saveSubscription(subs, completionHandler: {subscription, error in})
}
func application(application: UIApplication!, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [NSObject : AnyObject]!)
{
// <- this method will invoked
}
Did you register for notifications? You should have something like this in your application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:
application.registerUserNotificationSettings(UIUserNotificationSettings(forTypes: .Alert | .Badge | .Sound, categories: nil))
application.registerForRemoteNotifications()
I created a working demo that is available at https://github.com/evermeer/EVCloudKitDao
