Apple APNS API v3 client (HTTP/2)

Node ~> 6

npm install auth0-apns

Fist create your APNS instance, and avoid recreating it every time since it will cache the APNS token according to Apple Guidelines

const APNS = require('auth0-apns').APNS;
const apns = new APNS('{YOUR_APPLE_TEAM_IDENTIFIER}', { id: '{YOUR_APPLE_APN_KEY_ID}', pem: '{YOUR_APPLE_APN_KEY}'});

Then to send the notification you need to:

const notification = {
  aps: { alert: 'A notification sent from apns.js' }
};
apns
  .topic('{APNS_TOPIC}')
  .send(notification, '{DEVICE_TOKEN}')
  .then(response => console.log(response))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

• APN Key: In order to send a push notification you need an APN key that can be generated and downloaded from the developer portal. With this key you will be able to send a push notification to any of your apps signed by your Apple developer team.
• APN Key identifier: The identifier of the APN Key generated from the developer portal.
• Apple Team identifier: Id of your Apple developer account, it can be found in developer portal.
• APNS Topic: topic of the remote push notification which is usually your application bundle identifier.
• Device Token: Token obtained by the iOS Application in a device

For more info on these values please check https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Chapters/ApplePushService.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008194-CH100-SW9

By default apns.js uses the production endpoint but you can easily change it when building the topic:

const APNS = require('auth0-apns').APNS;
const apns = new APNS('{YOUR_APPLE_TEAM_IDENTIFIER}', { id: '{YOUR_APPLE_APN_KEY_ID}', pem: '{YOUR_APPLE_APN_KEY}'});
apns
  .topic('{APNS_TOPIC}', 'development')

If APNS API returns an error, apns.js will wrap in APNSError class, where the name will hold the reason code for the failure.

Also all possible reasons are declared in APNS.Reasons.{Error}

const APNSError = require('auth0-apns').APNSError;
console.log(APNSError.Reasons.BadCollapseId.name);
console.log(APNSError.Reasons.BadCollapseId.message);

so you could check the errors like

apns
  .topic('{APNS_TOPIC}')
  .send(notification, '{DEVICE_TOKEN}')
  .then(response => console.log(response))
  .catch(error => {
    if (error.name == APNSError.Reasons.Unregistered.name) {
      console.log('User unregisteded decice from APNS');
    } else {
      console.error(error);
    }
  });
