      $expo = \ExponentPhpSDK\Expo::normalSetup();
      $expo->notify($userId,$notification);//$userId from database
      $status = 'success';
}catch(Exception $e){
        $expo->subscribe($userId, $key); //$userId from database
        $expo->notify($userId,$notification);
        $status = 'new subscribtion';
}

  echo $status;
  ?>

Answer 2

Without the expo php sdk it can be done this way.

  <?php

    $payload = array(
        'to' => 'ExponentPushToken[xxborxxxxxxxxxx]',
        'sound' => 'default',
        'body' => 'hello',
    );

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
  CURLOPT_URL => "https://exp.host/--/api/v2/push/send",
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",
  CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
  CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
  CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
  CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "POST",
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => json_encode($payload),
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
    "Accept: application/json",
    "Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate",
    "Content-Type: application/json",
    "cache-control: no-cache",
    "host: exp.host"
  ),
));

$response = curl_exec($curl);
$err = curl_error($curl);

curl_close($curl);

if ($err) {
  echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
} else {
  echo $response;
}
?>
