Combine ios (Push notification) and android (GCM) API (webservice) for notification

Question

I am a android developer so i don't know that much about PHP.

we are developing exam paper app in Android and IOS. and create notification functionality its works perfectly. But problem is IOS use Push notification and android use GCM. And these two are use different api.

My question is how to combine these two api. I want to combine this two api (webservice) in one. When admin upload paper then all user get notify using notification weather it is android or IOS device.

What should i do? Help much appreciate thanks in advance. i am using this LINK

Here is my effort

Android API

 <?php

require_once('connect.php');
// API access key from Google API's Console
define( 'API_ACCESS_KEY', 'AIzaSyBWcc6ONXvNEHECxzLwFDSDCTKDTjEhfT8' );
//$registrationIds = array( $_GET['id'] );

$conn = new mysqli('host name', 'server name', 'password', 'database name');

    $select_qury = "SELECT gcm_registration_id FROM gtu_registration";
    $result = $conn->query($select_qury);

$registrationIds = array();

while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){

    array_push($registrationIds, $row['gcm_registration_id']);
}
// prep the bundle
$msg = array
(
    'message'   => 'here is a message. message',
    'title'     => 'This is a title. title',
    'subtitle'  => 'This is a subtitle. subtitle',
    'tickerText'=> 'Ticker text here...Ticker text here...Ticker text here',
    'vibrate'   => 1,
    'sound'     => 1,
    'largeIcon' => 'large_icon',
    'smallIcon' => 'small_icon'
);

//Creating a new array fileds and adding the msg array and registration token array here 
$fields = array
(
    'registration_ids'  => $registrationIds,
    'data'          => $msg
);

 //Adding the api key in one more array header 
$headers = array
(
    'Authorization: key=' . API_ACCESS_KEY,
    'Content-Type: application/json'
);

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt( $ch,CURLOPT_URL, 'https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send' );
curl_setopt( $ch,CURLOPT_POST, true );
curl_setopt( $ch,CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers );
curl_setopt( $ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
curl_setopt( $ch,CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false );
curl_setopt( $ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields ) );
$result = curl_exec($ch );
curl_close( $ch );

//Decoding json from result 
    $res = json_decode($result);

    $flag = $res->success;

    //if success is 1 means message is sent 
    if($flag == 1){
        //Redirecting back to our form with a request success 
        header('Location: index.php?success');
    }else{
        //Redirecting back to our form with a request failure 
        header('Location: index.php?failure');
    }

echo $result;

IOS API

<?php
      $token ='f1088d1c0603218b31b5a26210c4b0e60e4884225235c7f5c2e55c47b937a03d';
      $deviceToken = $token; // token dell'iPhone a cui inviare la notifica

      // Passphrase for the private key (ck.pem file)
       $pass = "mac12345";
      // Get the parameters from http get or from command line
      $message = 'Notification text';
      $badge = 1;
      $sound = 'default';

      // Construct the notification payload
      $body = array();
      $body['aps'] = array('alert' => $message);

      if ($badge)
            $body['aps']['badge'] = $badge;
      if ($sound)
            $body['aps']['sound'] = $sound;

      / End of Configurable Items /
      $ctx = stream_context_create();
      stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl','local_cert', 'Gtuck.pem');

      // assume the private key passphase was removed.
      stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'passphrase', $pass);
      $fp = stream_socket_client('ssl://gateway.sandbox.push.apple.com:2195', $err, $errstr, 120, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT, $ctx);


      $payload = json_encode($body);
      $msg = chr(0).pack('n',32).pack('H*', str_replace(' ', '', $deviceToken)).pack('n',strlen($payload)).$payload;
      print "" . $payload . "\n";
      fwrite($fp, $msg);
      fclose($fp);
?>

Is it possible or not?? if any suggestion or other way to get this done please tell me.

Answer 1

Below code is used by me you can change as your way

According TO Device Os

if($gcm_id_array['os'] == 'android')
            {
    $v[$index] = scs_single_gcm($gcm_id_array['gcm_id'],$message);
                $index++;
            }else{
                $v[$index] = scs_single_gcm_ios($gcm_id_array['gcm_id'],$message);
                $index++;
            }

Function for ios scs_single_gcm_ios

function  scs_single_gcm_ios($regids,$message)
    {
        try{
        $deviceToken = $regids;
        $passphrase = 'Kookdokoo';
        $title = $message['title'];
        $id = $message['noti_id'];

        $ctx = stream_context_create();
        stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'local_cert', 'ck.pem');
        stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'passphrase', $passphrase);

        $fp = stream_socket_client(
            'ssl://gateway.push.apple.com:2195', $err,
            $errstr, 60, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT|STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT, $ctx);

        if (!$fp)
            exit("Failed to connect: $err $errstr" . PHP_EOL);


        $body['aps'] = array(
            'alert' => $title,
            'sound' => 'default',
            'id' =>$id
            );

        // Encode the payload as JSON
        $payload = json_encode($body);

        // Build the binary notification

        $msg = chr(0) . pack('n', 32) . pack('H*', $deviceToken) . pack('n', strlen($payload)) . $payload;

        // Send it to the server
        $result = fwrite($fp, $msg, strlen($msg));

        if (!$result)
            $result = 0;
        else
            $result = 1;

        // Close the connection to the server
        fclose($fp);
        return $result;
        }
        catch(Exception $e){
          $e->getMessage();
            }
    }

For android

function scs_single_gcm($regids,$message)
{


    if(is_array($regids)){
        $fields = array(
                'registration_ids'  =>  $regids,
                'data'              => array( "data" => $message ),
                );

    }else
    {   
        $fields = array(
                'registration_ids'  =>  array($regids),
                'data'              => array( "data" => $message ),
                );

    }
    // Open connection
    $ch = curl_init();
     if (FALSE === $ch)
        throw new Exception('failed to initialize');
    // Set the url, number of POST vars, POST data
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, 3);
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL,url );
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, true );
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,array(key,content_type));
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields ) );
    // Execute post
    $result = curl_exec($ch);   
    /*
    if (FALSE === $result)
        echo curl_error($ch).curl_errno($ch);
    // Close connection
    curl_close($ch);
    if (curl_errno( $ch ) ){
        'GCM error: ' . curl_error( $ch );
        }
    */  
    $result = json_decode($result);

       $notification = 1;
       if($result->success){
            $nm = 'push notification success';
               $p = 1;
       }else{
              if($result->results[0]->error == "NotRegistered")
              {
      $nm = 'push notification success';
              $p = 1;
              }else{
                $nm = 'push notification failed';
              $p = 0;
              }

       }

Answer 2

I see no problem here. You need to design a sort of push token storage. Each record of this storage will contain the information about user device: push_token (or gcm_registration_id if it is an android device), platform type (iOS/android) and maybe user_id if you have some account system. when you fetch this table you call relevant function (let's name them send_ios_push($token, $msg) and send_android_push($reg_id, $msg) ) according to value of platform attribute.

I Found the solution in github And it's for Android , IOS and windows .
Thanks to joashp.

use this two file.

test.php

<?php
include_once('connect.php');
require_once('notification.php');

$device_type = $_GET['device_type'];

$sql = "SELECT gcm_registration_id from gtu_registration where device_type = 'Android'";

$result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);

while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))

{

    // $output[] = $row;


      // $message = $row['message'];    
        $gcm_registration = $row['gcm_registration_id'];

     // print(json_encode($gcm_registration));
      //print(json_encode($gcm_registration));

}
