### Config for notification and `click_action` in Android
To allow android to respond to `click_action`, you need to define Activities and filter on specific intent. Since all javascript is running in MainActivity, you can have MainActivity to handle actions.
```xml
<activity
  android:name=".MainActivity"
  android:label="@string/app_name"
  android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
  android:launchMode="singleTop"                                          <--add this line to reuse MainActivity
  android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize">
  <intent-filter>
      <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
      <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
  </intent-filter>
    <intent-filter>                                                       <--add this line
        <action android:name="fcm.ACTION.HELLO" />                        <--add this line, name should match click_action
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />       <--add this line
    </intent-filter>                                                      <--add this line
</activity>
```
and pass intent into package, change MainActivity.java
```java

// Add this line to update intent on notification click
@Override
// in RN <= 0.27 you may need to use `protected void onNewIntent (Intent intent) {`
public void onNewIntent (Intent intent) {
  super.onNewIntent(intent);
    setIntent(intent);
}

install pod 'Firebase/Messaging'

NOTE: make sure cocoapods version > 1.0
```
cd ios && pod init
pod install Firebase/Messaging
```

### Non Cocoapod approach
1. download framework from https://firebase.google.com/docs/ios/setup last section Integrate without CocoaPods
2. Follow the readme to link frameworks (Analytics+Messaging)
3. current zip file is missing `FirebaseAnalytics.framework` file. I put one in the root of this repository

### Shared steps

### FCM config file
124
In [firebase console](https://console.firebase.google.com/), you can get `google-services.json` file and place it in `android/app` directory and get `GoogleService-Info.plist` file and place it in `/ios/your-project-name` directory (next to your `Info.plist`)

### Behaviour when sending `notification` and `data` payload through GCM
Libin Lu's avatar
Libin Lu committed
159 160 161 162 163
- When app is not running when user clicks notification, notification data will be passed into 
 - `FCM.initialAction`(contains `click_action` in notification payload
 - `FCM.initialData` (contains `data` payload if you send together with notification)

- When app is running in background
Libin Lu's avatar

164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 189 190 191 192
 - App will receive notificaton from `FCMNotificationReceived` event when user click on notification.
   e.g. fcm payload looks like
   ```
   {
      "to":"some_device_token",
      "content_available": true,
      "notification": {
          "title": "hello",
          "body": "yo",
          "click_action": "fcm.ACTION.HELLO"
      },
      "data": {
          "extra":"juice"
      }
    }
    ```
    and event callback will receive as
    ```
    ///Android
    {
      fcm: {"action": "fcm.ACTION.HELLO"},
      extra: "juice"
    }
    ///IOS
    {
      apns: {action_category: "fcm.ACTION.HELLO"},
      extra: "juice"
    }
    ```

- When app is running in foreground
195
 - IOS will receive notification and android **won't** (better not to do anything in foreground for hybrid and send a seprate data message.)

NOTE: it is recommend not to rely on `data` payload for click_action as it can be overwritten. check [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33738848/handle-multiple-notifications-with-gcm)

## Q & A

#### My android build is failing
Libin Lu's avatar

201
Try update your SDK and google play service
202
#### I can't get notification when app is killed
Libin Lu's avatar
Libin Lu committed
203
If you send notification with `data` only, you can only get the data message when app is in foreground or background. Killed app doesn't trigger FCMNotificationReceived. Use `notification` in the payload instead

#### App running in background doesn't trigger `FCMNotificationReceived` when receiving hybrid notification [Android]
205
These is [an issue opened for that](https://github.com/google/gcm/issues/63). Behavior is not consistent between 2 platforms

#### Android notification is showing a white icon
Since Lolipop, push notification icon is required to be all white, otherwise it will be a white circle.
208
#### It is missing some features
