Got ErrorException with message 'Subscription should have a content encoding'

[yoviprasetyo]

Hi,

I develop Laravel App with your packages.

This is my route

Route::post('/save-subscription', 'NotificationController@subscribe')->name('subscription.save');

That route is to save the JSON
I just save the endpoint and don't care for the rest.
I use $user->updatePushSubscription($request->endpoint); to save it. Saved to DB.

But, when I try to notify the User, I got this error.

ErrorException with message 'Subscription should have a content encoding'

I ever see your code that the available value is aesgcm and aes128gcm. But it only return null and no notification occured.

How to solve this error?

Hey,

Have been facing the same issue? Any luck?

Okay, small update.

There's a bug that will not apply the default value "aesgcm" if not provided.

To by-pass this you can:

1. Implement your own version of the Subscription class that applies the value correctly
2. Send always the value "aesgcm" when updating the subscription

auth('api')->user()->updatePushSubscription($sub['endpoint'], null, null, "aesgcm");

I don't think this looks good unless you're on PHP 8.x and can make use of named parameters.
