AWS Webpush

Service built for filling gap in AWS Simple Notification Service - lack of support for push notifications in web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Opera & Safari). Service can be deployed on AWS Lambda. It is listening for SNS events, on fires on them.

Deploy

There are several steps to start using this service:

• Install maven - for building Java project
• Install node - for easy deployment with Serverless framework
• VAPID_PUBLIC_KEY & VAPID_PRIVATE_KEY environment variables - can be generated with Push Companion app
• SAFARI_KEY_PASSWORD environment variable - used to protect your Safari key

export VAPID_PUBLIC_KEY=your_public_key
export VAPID_PRIVATE_KEY=your_private_key
export SAFARI_KEY_PASSWORD=safari_key_password

git clone https://github.com/maciejtreder/aws-sns-webpush.git
cd aws-sns-webpush
npm install
npm deploy

Customization

There is a plan, to support customization of this service (enabling only vapid subscription, or only safari), you can track it in this issue.
