Question

我想为我的应用程序使用推送通知服务，但是我不确定如何利用它，请帮助

Answer 1

you have a good tutorial for push notifications here explaining the server side implementation details:
http://blog.boxedice.com/2009/07/10/how-to-build-an-apple-push-notification-provider-server-tutorial/ and here explaining the client side details:

Also here is the link to the Apple developer guide on local and remote push notifications: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Introduction/Introduction.html

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

To send remote push notifications using PHP, I suggest you take a look at the php-apns project on Google Code. I've had good experience with it.

You will have to enable push notifications on iTunes Connect, if you didn't do that already. Your app will have to get the push notifications token from the OS, and deliver it to server. This token may change from one launch to another, so recommended way is to fetch the notification token at launch, and deliver it to the server. Server can then decide when it wants to deliver a notification to which device; at that point, you use php-apns which will connect to Apple's server on port 2195 (make sure you have a hosting which allows that) and, using several certificates you also put on the server, communicate with it.

Make sure the certificates are not downloadable when you upload them on the server.

You cannot test push notifications on the Simulator.
