CakeGCM is a plugin for CakePHP to send downstream message to an Android or iOS device through Google Cloud Messaging

Requirements

• CakePHP >= 3.*
• PHP >= 5.4

Installation

Run : composer require oxenti/cake_gcm:dev-cake3 Or add it in your composer.json:

"require": {
    "oxenti/cake_gcm": "dev-cake3"
},

Enable plugin

In config/bootstrap.php file add :

Plugin::load('CakeGcm', ['autoload' => true]);

or uncomment :

Plugin::loadAll();

Usage

In src/Controller/AppController.php file, add :

$this->loadComponent('CakeGcm.Gcm', [
    'api' => [
        'key' => '*****'
    ]
]);

in your Controller's initialize() method. Replace ***** by your API Key.

To get an API key, follow the instructions in this link: http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/gs.html#access-key

Then, in an action of your Controller, add the following code:

if ($this->Gcm->send($ids, $data, $parameters)) {
    // do some stuff
} else {
    // do other stuff
}

where:

• $ids is a string or an array of device ids. (required)
• $payload is an array containing the notification and/or some datas that will be passed to a device. (optional)
• $paramaters is an array of parameters for the notification. (optional)

You could have the response of the request by using the function response():

$response = $this->Gcm->response();

Examples

Send an empty notification to a device:

$this->Gcm->send('1');

Send a notification to a device:

$this->Gcm->send('1', [
    'notification' => [
        'title' => 'Hello World',
        'body' => 'My awesome Hellow World!'
    ]
]);

or

$this->Gcm->sendNotification('1', [
    'title' => 'Hello World',
    'body' => 'My awesome Hellow World!'
]);

Send a notification to multiple devices:

$this->Gcm->send(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'notification' => [
            'title' => 'Hello World',
            'body' => 'My awesome Hellow World!'
        ]
    ]
);

or

$this->Gcm->sendNotification(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'title' => 'Hello World',
        'body' => 'My awesome Hellow World!'
    ]
);

Send a notification with lots of data

$this->Gcm->send(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'data-1' => 'Lorem ipsum',
        'data-2' => 1234,
        'data-3' => true
    ]
);

Send datas to a device:

$this->Gcm->send(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'data' => [
            'data-1' => 'Lorem ipsum',
            'data-2' => '1234',
            'data-3' => 'true'
        ]
    ]
);

or

$this->Gcm->sendData(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'data-1' => 'Lorem ipsum',
        'data-2' => 1234,
        'data-3' => true
    ]
);

Send a notification and some datas to a device at the same time:

$this->Gcm->send(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'notification' => [
            'title' => 'Hello World',
            'body' => 'My awesome Hellow World!'
        ],
        'data' => [
            'data-1' => 'Lorem ipsum',
            'data-2' => 1234,
            'data-3' => true
        ]
    ]
);

Send a notification with extra parameters:

$this->Gcm->sendNotification(
    ['1', '2', '3', '4'],
    [
        'notification' => [
            'title' => 'Hello World',
            'body' => 'My awesome Hello World!'
        ]
    ],
    [
        'delay_while_idle' => true,
        'dry_run' => false,
        'time_to_live' => 86400,
        'collapse_key' => 'Gcm',
        'restricted_package_name' => 'my_awesome_package'
    ]
);
