Erlang library for working with Apple Push Notification Service from dieselpuppet.com.

Apple Push Notification Service documentation.

Great tutorial about using APNs.

dp_push documentation in russian.

How to use

Set dependency in your rebar.config:

{deps, [
	{dp_push, ".*", {git, "https://github.com/yzh44yzh/dp-push.git", "v1.0"}}
]}.

Change configuration in dp_push.app.src:

{env, [{apns, [
		{host, "gateway.sandbox.push.apple.com"},
		{feedback_host, "feedback.sandbox.push.apple.com"},
		{port, 2195},
		{feedback_port, 2196}]
	},
	{cert, [{certfile, "priv/your_cert.pem"},
		{password, "your_password"}]
	},
	{failed_tokens_dets, "priv/failed_tokens"},
	{feedback_check_interval, 10800000} % 3 hours
]}

Run application:

main() ->
	ssl:start(),
	application:start(dp_push),

Call API functions:

-spec(send(#apns_msg{}, device_token()) -> ok | {error, error()}).
-spec(send_alert(iolist(), device_token()) -> ok | {error, error()}).
-spec(send_badge(integer(), device_token()) -> ok | {error, error()}).
-spec(send_data(iolist(), device_token()) -> ok | {error, error()}).
-spec(remove_device_from_failed(device_token()) -> ok).

Device Token

Device Token is something like that:

8253de13 f71d310d 05a13135 e09e09b6 32c478d5 32313723 1f04a7c7 b5de947d

This is not a string or binary:

InvalidDeviceToken = "8253de13 f71d310d 05a13135 e09e09b6 32c478d5 32313723 1f04a7c7 b5de947d"
InvalidDeviceToken = "8253de13f71d310d05a13135e09e09b632c478d5323137231f04a7c7b5de947d"
InvalidDeviceToken = <<"8253de13f71d310d05a13135e09e09b632c478d5323137231f04a7c7b5de947d">>

This is hex-number:

ValidDeviceToken = 16#8253de13f71d310d05a13135e09e09b632c478d5323137231f04a7c7b5de947d
