Flutter Firebase Cloud Messaging Receiver

A Flutter app to receive Firebase Cloud Messaging notifications. It was built to be used with Firebase Cloud Messaging Notifier, a package I made to notify about Machine Learning models training status.

App's view (left), notification center (center) and smartband (right). This is the way I use it.

The main motivation is that monitoring machine learning models' training status can be time consuming (specially when SSH-ing from the phone). Using this, monitoring becomes passive.

Requirements

• Flutter
• A Firebase Cloud Messaging project token (see https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging)

Usage

• Clone this repository
• Download google-services.json from your Firebase project and place it in android/app
• Connect your phone to your computer and run flutter run
• On the app, click the floating button to copy your device's token
• Use the token to send notifications to your phone via FCM Notifier

Contributing

This app (and Python package) are far from complete. There are some ways I imagine they could be better:

• Saving historic data, when new notifications arise
• Plotting charts with historic data
• Automatic device token synchronization between phone and reporter machine
• Easier project configuration, using some service other than Firebase.

Fell free to fork this project and improve it for your needs.
