Cordova Push Plugin: onNotificationGMC is not fired and cannot obtain regID

Question

Hello everyone I\'m developing a cordova Hybrid app that requires the Push Notification Service of Android and iOS to work and so I\'ve installed the cordova plugin \"PushPl

Answer 1

I had the same problem. If you are using AngularJS + IonicFramework you do not have to do this:

After you create your factory with your onDeviceReady function, creates onNotificationGCM function. Something like this:

app.factory('PushProcessingService', function () { ..

});

function onNotificationGCM(e) { }

I was creating onNotificationGCM inside my factory. This solve my problem. I hope it can helps you.

In the ionic-framework you have a ready plugin: http://ngcordova.com/docs/plugins/pushNotifications/

here is an example for a working code for android devices:

module.run(function($cordovaPush) {

var androidConfig = {
    "senderID": "replace_with_sender_id",
    "ecb": "replace_with_the_name_of_function that will return you the regid"
};

document.addEventListener("deviceready", function(){
$cordovaPush.register(config).then(function(result) {
  // Success
}, function(err) {
  // Error
})

window.function replace_with_ecb(notification) { //notification.regid
  switch(notification.event) {
    case 'registered':
      if (notification.regid.length > 0 ) {
        alert('registration ID = ' + notification.regid);
      }
      break;

    case 'message':
      // this is the actual push notification. its format depends on the data model from the push server
      alert('message = ' + notification.message + ' msgCount = ' + notification.msgcnt);
      break;

    case 'error':
      alert('GCM error = ' + notification.msg);
      break;

    default:
      alert('An unknown GCM event has occurred');
      break;
  }
};

}, false);
});

this code only works a real device(not an emulator)

FIXED

I moved the onNotificationGCM in an empty script tag like this:

<script>
function onNotificationGCM(result) {
    alert(result.regid);
}
</script>

And now it give you the regID :)
