A PHP API for sending Push Notifications with the AeroGear UnifiedPush Sender.
The main class, SenderClient, is what handles the message formatting and sending to the server. It also can return two responses from the server: the HTTP response code (as getResponseCode()), and the body of the HTTP response (as getResponseText()). This data can determine whether a message send was successful or not.
SenderClient supports all parameters that can be sent with a message payload, and will encode them as necessary to be sent. It also handles server authentication with pushApplicationId and masterSecret.
The class can be used with a database backend, being fed data from a database, form, or other request. For demonstration purposes, there is an included webapp, which shows off a form which can handle multiple messages and all other current Aerogear features.
There is a mini-webapp included within /webapp/. This demonstrates how you can use SenderClient to interface with a web form for sending a message.
index.php is the actual HTML for the user, and allows a Selected or Broadcast send to be chosen. If selected send is used, then more options (i.e. variants, aliases, etc) are available for submission. If broadcast is chosen, only the required options are shown.
For values that have key-value pairs, such as message and simplePush, the form allows for dymanic creation of more key-value pairs as needed.
toArray.php holds one function to help convert <textarea> elements into PHP-parseable arrays. These are eventually encoded and send to SenderClient.
processForm.php is the target of the form in index. This script takes the HTTP POST data, parses it into a usable form for SenderClient, and sends it to SenderClient. The most complex part of this involves toArray to change the <textarea> lines into PHP arrays. It also adds they key-value pairs of message and simplePush to the SenderClient.
Upon completion, the script outputs the HTTP response code and the HTTP response text (ideally Job Submitted)
