somebody could point me some information as to implement the activation of the reminder, for example in the image I establish the hour and frequentia in which I want to repeat the reminder (daily, weekly, monthly, without repetition) There I must make the query to know when the period expires which was scheduled the reminder and thereinididicar with a push notification that said reminder was culminated.
The detail I present is to query the mongo when the app is closed the query can not be performed to verify the status of the reminder. Think about doing background mode with hybrid: background, but maybe it can affect the battery consumption of the phone because of the amount of reminders the user can create, they will constantly be consulted on the state of the app.
If someone has a method I thank you for pointing me some data.
You can setup a cron to initiate an action after x units of time.
In meteor you can use this cron package.
As higlighted in the docs, you can schedule a task to launch after certain time, or after every x mins or so.
SyncedCron.add({
name: 'Crunch some important numbers for the marketing department',
schedule: function(parser) {
// parser is a later.parse object
return parser.text('every 2 hours');
},
job: function() {
var numbersCrunched = CrushSomeNumbers();
return numbersCrunched;
}
});
Once the task is triggered, you can send a push notification from the server to the client app. This will work even when the app is off, as the jobs are done on the server.

I am working on an ionic app and I am using onesignal for push notifications.
The problem I am facing is that the handleNotifiactionRecieved() does not get triggered upon receiving a push notification when the app is not killed (that is removed from the recent apps). Though it works as expected when the app's running but in the background(not inFocus).
setup code is something like this:
if (this.platform.is('cordova')) {
this.oneSignal.startInit('APP_ID');
this.oneSignal.inFocusDisplaying(this.oneSignal.OSInFocusDisplayOption.None);
this.openOneSignalMessage();
this.oneSignal.endInit();
}
my code is something like this:
openOneSignalMessage() {
this.oneSignal.handleNotificationReceived().subscribe((data) => {
this.MsgBody = data.payload.body
console.log('newMessageOneSignal MsgBody', this.MsgBody);
});
}
actual result: handleNotificationReceived() doesn't get called when the app is not running, that is killed.
expected result: handleNotificationReceived() should be called every time a push notification arrives even when the app is not open.
How do I trigger the method every time?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for pointing out the issue in the docs. They have been updated with the correct info:
handleNotificationReceived (builder method)
Sets a notification received handler. Only called if the app is running in the foreground at the time the notification was received.
If you want to handle from a killed state, make sure to use the handleNotificationOpened method
I find this in the doc:
Sets a notification received handler. Only called if the app is running in the foreground or background at the time the notification was received.
Maybe your app is not working on background.
Or the problem is you need to call ur function after the startinit :
this.onesignal.startInit("YOUR_APPID")
this.onesignal.handleNotificationReceived()
I have been trying for several months to implement an app that receives notifications whose content I want to be stored in the database of my application. I am using the Firebase Messagging plugin and I am receiving the notifications correctly, both in Foreground and in Background.
However, in the background I am unable to execute my callback without the need to press the notification explicitly by the user. Likewise, there is no way to increase the badge of the application when it is not open.
Now, I do not understand how applications like WhatsApp, Telegram and any other application that is not made by mere mortals work. How is it possible that they can get the data in backgroud, manage the badges, synchronize messages, etc? Being that, supposedly the services like Firebase are limited in background. Even with plugins like Background Mode my application is suspended by Android when the user closes it.
The code that I am currently using to handle notifications is the following:
// In foreground (WORKS)
this.firebaseMessaging.onMessage().subscribe((notificacion) => {
// Insert in DB
...
});
// In background (DOESN'T WORK)
this.firebaseMessaging.onBackgroundMessage().subscribe((notificacion) => {
// Insert in DB
...
});
What alternative is left? The only thing that occurs to me is to use notifications in Foreground and background only as a warning. So every time I open the application I'll have to call a message synchronization callback with the server (with badge management included).
If someone has some better way, I would greatly appreciate it if you throw a little light on the subject.
From already thank you very much
Ok, after more than a year I think it's time to close this question. I solved the problem this way:
Suppose I need to get a list of messages. This action is made by a function called getMessages()
When a new message is created in the backend, I send a push notification through Firebase service.
If the push notification is received in foreground I refresh call the method directly:
this.firebaseMessaging.onMessage().subscribe((notificacion) => {
getMessages();
});
If the push notification is received in background and the user taps on it there isn't a problem as it's supported by the plugin:
this.firebaseMessaging.onBackgroundMessage().subscribe((notificacion) => {
getMessages();
});
If the push notification is received in background but the user DOES NOT tap on it and opens the app in another way than the notification, we need to excecute the corresponing function when the app is opened in app.component.ts file:
this.platform.ready().then(() => {
getMessages();
// Extra stuff like this.statusBar.styleDefault(); or this.splashScreen.hide();
});
That way all the cases are considered! You should keep in mind that apps like Whatsapp or Telegram are developed in official technologies like Java or Kotlin which not only have official native plugins, also its code are excecuted natively and not in a limited browser as Cordova or Capacitor frameworks do
I am making a google action.I have one scenario where calculation requires some time in cloud fulfillment but i don't want to keep user waiting for answer.
I want to respond to user whenever my answer is ready even when conversation with user is ended i want to send my answer in notification or something like that.
I just found this on google actions documents.
https://developers.google.com/actions/assistant/updates
Is this possible in google actions and how?
What you mean here is notifications. You can use it but please pay attention to the warning at the top of the link you provided: "Updates and notifications are currently in Developer Preview. You can build apps using the features described in this article, but you can't currently publish them".
As for the steps to crated a daily notification:
Navigate to your actions.intent.CONFIGURE_UPDATES intent.
Under Responses, go to the Google Assistant tab, click Add Message Content, and select Custom Payload.
In the "Custom Payload" box, add the following code to call the AskToRegisterDailyUpdate helper. Swap INTENT_NAME to the intent that you want to be invoked when the user interacts with your notification.
{
"google": {
"system_intent": {
"intent": "actions.intent.REGISTER_UPDATE",
"data": {"#type": "type.googleapis.com/google.actions.v2.RegisterUpdateValueSpec",
"intent": "INTENT_NAME",
"triggerContext": {
"timeContext": { "frequency": "DAILY" }
}
}
}
}
}
If using a webhook, you can call this API directly via the client library:
appMap.set('setup_update', function(app) {
app.askToRegisterDailyUpdate('INTENT_NAME');
})
})
Add one more intent called "finish_update_setup" and enter actions_intent_REGISTER_UPDATE as its Event.
Set the intent's Action to "finish_update_setup" as well.
In your webhook, open index.js and add the following. Replace Ok, I'll start giving you daily updates and Ok, I won't give you daily updates. with whatever response you want to give the user:
appMap.set('finish_update_setup', function(app)) {
if (app.isUpdateRegistered()) {
app.tell("Ok, I'll start giving you daily updates.");
} else {
app.tell("Ok, I won't give you daily updates.");
}
}
Deploy the webhook to Firebase Functions and enable webhook fulfillment in Dialogflow.
If you want to see how to create a simple notification (not daily one) - please check this doc on push notifications.
If you don't have an immediate reply to send but expect one soon-ish what you do is return a "promise". When you are in a position to reply, "fulfilling" the promise causes your reply to be delivered. I don't know what the actual timeout is but in my case I'm pretty sure at least a few second delay is allowed.
As for the updates or notifications, the API is there but the docs say you can't deploy an Action to production using them. There is a slightly cryptic comment to "contact support" if you need them.
One of these days I might try.
I am using this plugin (http://ngcordova.com/docs/plugins/localNotification/) for local notifications on Ionic. I want to be able set custom times for recurring notifications. Cordova Local Notification object has an "every" attribute but I want to be to change what time the notification is triggered each time it is triggered instead of just relying on what is set on the "every" attribute. I have tried updating the notification on trigger to reset the "at" attribute but it does not work
$rootScope.$on('$cordovaLocalNotification:trigger',
function (event, notification, state) {
var newDate = getNewDate();
$cordovaLocalNotification.update({
id: notification.id,
at: newDate,
every: "year",
message: notification.message,
title: notification.title,
data: notification.data
});
});
I tried not using the every "attribute" so that it uses the default value of 0 which means that the notification triggers just once and then I can schedule a new one with the date I want but on both iOS and Android emulators, the notifications are coming persistently. It seems there is a problem when "every" has a value of 0
I would like to keep track of the amount of times that a user has logged into the application to either:
Remind them on their first visit to complete their profile
If profile is not complete, every X amount of visits remind user to complete
I'm not sure if the proper way to do this would be adding a key value to the users collection, or tie login to a new collection which counts up one each time a login occurs.
Is there a built in method to keep track of login successes?
Yup. You can even keep track of login failures.
From http://docs.meteor.com/#/full/accounts_onlogin:
Accounts.onLogin(function() {
// track successful login here. You can just use Meteor.user() to find out which user.
});
Accounts.onLoginFailure(function() {
// track failed login here.
});
There is even a "validate login attempt" method where you could potentially screen your users:
Accounts.validateLoginAttempt(func):
Accounts.validateLoginAttempt(function(loginInfo) {
// loginInfo.user returns a valid user object, if logged in successfully. Maybe tie this one to a collection, and do some checks etc.
// you can even use loginInfo.connection to see where the user has connected from (e.g. IP address.. perhaps)
return true; // return false if you want to 'bounce' this user.
});
Note: These can be done server-side only.
