Misiva

Misiva is an Elixir/OTP application that sends push notifications (using the Apple Push Notification Service) to iOS apps.

How to use it

• Create a connection passing the Push notification Certificate path, the path to the Push notification key, and an atom to identify the environment (:development or :production):

{:ok, apns} = Misiva.connect {:production, "/etc/certificates/cert.pem", "/etc/certificates/key.pem"}

• Using that connection, you can send notifications using the send method. You can send and alert, a sound and a badge number

Misiva.send apns,
 "f6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6af6aa", %Misiva.ApnsMessage{alert: "Hi from Misiva"}

Finally, once you finish sending the messages, call the close method to close the connection to the Apple server:

Misiva.close apns

Certificate creation

The certificates should be in PEM format. You can extract them from a .p12 certificate file:

openssl pkcs12 -clcerts -nokeys -out cert.pem -in cert.p12

openssl pkcs12 -nocerts -out key.pem -in key.p12

Remove password from pem file

openssl rsa -in key.pem -out key-noenc.pem
