golang-push-notifications-demo

This is a Demo for cross browsers push notifications, implemented message push using webpush-go

1. Generate VAPID Keys

There are many ways to generate a pair of VAPID keys. You can use GenerateVAPIDKeys() providing from webpush-go to create a private and public VAPID key pair:

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/SherClockHolmes/webpush-go"
)

func main() {
	vapidPrivateKey, vapidPublicKey, err := webpush.GenerateVAPIDKeys()
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Generate VAPID Keys error: ", err)
		return
	}
	fmt.Println("vapid_private_key: ", vapidPrivateKey)
	fmt.Println("vapid_public_key: ", vapidPublicKey)
}

2. Access index.html

Replace the public VAPID key in index.js.

Use a tool such as SimpleHTTPServer to run a web server:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

Go to http://localhost:8000 and copy the logged subsciption from the console.

3. Test sending a notification

Replace the public/private VAPID keys and detail subscription info. Use the subscription you had from the first section.

go run main.go
