DEPRECATED

This library uses the legacy Apple API. Please, consider moving to a more efficient HTTP-2/based API, by using another library (e.g. https://github.com/CleverTap/apns-http2).

I will stop mantaining this library, thanks everyone for your contributions.

Then send it:

Payload examples

Based on Apple docs

Example 1

To send the following payload:

{
    "aps" : { "alert" : "Message received from Bob" },
    "acme2" : [ "bang",  "whiz" ]
}

You should code the following:

PushNotificationBigPayload payload = PushNotificationBigPayload.complex();
payload.addAlert("Message received from Bob");
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme2", Arrays.asList("bang", "whiz"));

Example 2

To send the following payload:

{
    "aps" : {
        "alert" : {
            "title" : "Game Request",
            "body" : "Bob wants to play poker",
            "action-loc-key" : "PLAY"
        },
        "badge" : 5
    },
    "acme1" : "bar",
    "acme2" : [ "bang",  "whiz" ]
}

You should code the following:

PushNotificationBigPayload payload = PushNotificationBigPayload.complex();
payload.addCustomAlertTitle("Game Request");
payload.addCustomAlertBody("Bob wants to play poker");
payload.addCustomAlertActionLocKey("PLAY");
payload.addBadge(5);
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme1", "bar");
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme2", Arrays.asList("bang", "whiz"));

Example 3

To send the following payload:

{
    "aps" : {
        "alert" : "You got your emails.",
        "badge" : 9,
        "sound" : "bingbong.aiff"
    },
    "acme1" : "bar",
    "acme2" : 42
}

You should code the following:

PushNotificationBigPayload payload = PushNotificationBigPayload.complex();
payload.addCustomAlertBody("You got your emails.");
payload.addBadge(9);
payload.addSound("bingbong.aiff");
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme1", "bar");
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme2", 42);

Example 4

To send the following payload:

{
    "aps" : {
        "alert" : {
            "loc-key" : "GAME_PLAY_REQUEST_FORMAT",
            "loc-args" : [ "Jenna", "Frank"]
        },
        "sound" : "chime.aiff"
    },
    "acme" : "foo"
}

You should code the following:

PushNotificationBigPayload payload = PushNotificationBigPayload.complex();
payload.addCustomAlertLocKey("GAME_PLAY_REQUEST_FORMAT");
payload.addCustomAlertLocArgs(Arrays.asList("Jenna", "Frank"));
payload.addSound("chime.aiff");
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme", "foo");

Example 5

To send the following payload:

{
    "aps" : {
        "content-available" : 1
    }, 
    "acme" : "foo"
}

You should code the following:

PushNotificationBigPayload payload = PushNotificationBigPayload.complex();
payload.setContentAvailable(true);
payload.addCustomDictionary("acme", "foo");

Example 6

To send the following payload:

{
  "aps": {
    "mutable-content":1,
    "alert":{
      "title": "Notification title",
      "subtitle": "Notification subtitle",
      "body": "Notification body"
    }
  },
  "media-attachment": "https://url/to/content.mpg"
}

You should code the following:

PushNotificationBigPayload payload = PushNotificationBigPayload.complex();
payload.setMutableContent(true);
payload.addCustomAlertTitle("Notification title");
payload.addCustomAlertSubtitle("Notification subtitle");
