I have a web application. I want to use the HTML 5 inbuilt notifications API to do push notifications from the server when the user is on a particular page. Is it possible?
You can do real push notifications with Web apps today in Chrome using Service Workers and PushManager from the W3C Push API .
See the article Push Notifications on the Open Web for a step-by-step how-to and code snippets you can use. Here's a diagram from that article that explains what the UI around it looks like.
An implementation of the Push API has already landed in Firefox too; it's targeted for shipping in November 2015 in Firefox 42. And Microsoft has indicated that the Push API is also under consideration for implementation in Edge team as well.
Below is a simple code example, borrowed from MDN.
this.onpush = function(event) {
console.log(event.data);
}
navigator.serviceWorker.register('serviceworker.js').then(
function(serviceWorkerRegistration) {
serviceWorkerRegistration.pushManager.subscribe().then(
function(pushSubscription) {
console.log(pushSubscription.subscriptionId);
console.log(pushSubscription.endpoint);
}, function(error) {
console.log(error);
}
);
}
);
It depends on what you want to achieve:
