Comment
1 / 1
To send push notifications from Azure to a Windows Mobile Cordova app, you can use the Azure Notification Hubs service along with the Apache Cordova plugin for handling push notifications. Here's a general outline of the steps you need to follow:
Set Up Azure Notification Hub:
- Create an Azure account if you don't have one.
- Create a new Azure Notification Hub in the Azure portal.
- Configure the notification hub for the Windows platform.
Configure Your Cordova Project:
- Create a new or open an existing Cordova project.
- Install the
cordova-plugin-azure-notification-hubs
plugin to enable push notifications. Run:csharpcordova plugin add cordova-plugin-azure-notification-hubs
Configure Push Notification in Your Cordova App:
- Implement the necessary code to request push notification permissions from the user.
- Initialize the Azure Notification Hubs in your Cordova app using the provided connection string and hub name.
Handle Push Notifications:
- Implement the necessary code to handle push notifications when they are received in your Cordova app.
- Update your UI or perform any desired actions when a push notification arrives.
Send Push Notifications from Azure:
- Use the Azure Notification Hubs service to send push notifications to your Cordova app.
- Use the Notification Hubs REST APIs or SDKs to send notifications.
Here's an example of how you might configure push notifications in a Cordova app:
javascript// JavaScript code in your Cordova app
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
var push = PushNotification.init({
"azureHubName": "your_hub_name",
"azureHubConnectionString": "Endpoint=sb://your_namespace.servicebus.windows.net/;SharedAccessKeyName=DefaultFullSharedAccessSignature;SharedAccessKey=your_access_key"
});
push.on('registration', function(data) {
// Send the registration ID to your backend server
});
push.on('notification', function(data) {
// Handle the received notification
});
push.on('error', function(e) {
console.log("Push notification error: " + e.message);
});
}
This is a high-level overview of the process. Be sure to consult the documentation for the Azure Notification Hubs service and the Cordova push notification plugin for more detailed instructions and implementation details:
