Time Sensitive Entitlement

If you want to send notifications that can skip the scheduled summary of the user (from iOS 15), you must add the following field in the application entitlement:

Notification Service Extension

❗️

On this version of Titanium SDK, you can't add NSE with the following explanation. this should be done manually.

Since the release of iOS 10, apps can manage rich push notifications, that is, with images, gif, video, buttons, etc.
In order to use these features, your app needs to implement the Notification Service Extension.

  1. Add a new Notification Service Extension to your project (Xcode: File> New> Target).
  2. Add the extension target in your application.
  3. Once created, you have to look at two points in the NSE target:
    The Bundle identifier has to be the same as that of the app plus the Display name of the NSE.
    In the deployment info field, you must indicate the minimum iOS system that you want to impact, so we recommend that it be the same as the one you have planned in the app.

  • You have to be careful at this point because Xcode when creating the target, configures the deployment info in the latest iOS system available. If you do not put it right, on devices below the indicated target it will not show rich notifications.

*4. The file NotificationService will have been created within this target. Overwrite all content with the following code:

import Indigitall
class NotificationService: UNNotificationServiceExtension {

    var contentHandler: ((UNNotificationContent) -> Void)?
    var bestAttemptContent: UNMutableNotificationContent?
    var request: UNNotificationRequest?

    override func didReceive(_ request: UNNotificationRequest, withContentHandler contentHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationContent) -> Void) {
        self.contentHandler = contentHandler
        self.request = request
        self.bestAttemptContent = (request.content.mutableCopy() as? UNMutableNotificationContent)

        Indigitall.didReceive(self.request!, withContentHandler: self.contentHandler!)
    }

    override func serviceExtensionTimeWillExpire() {
        if let contentHandler = contentHandler, let bestAttemptContent = bestAttemptContent {
            Indigitall.serviceExtensionTimeWillExpire(bestAttemptContent, withContentHandler: contentHandler)
        }
    }

}
#import <UserNotifications/UserNotifications.h>
#import <Indigitall/Indigitall.h>

API_AVAILABLE(ios(10.0))
//NotificaiontService.h
@interface NotificationService : UNNotificationServiceExtension

@property (nonatomic, strong) void (^contentHandler)(UNNotificationContent *contentToDeliver);
@property (nonatomic, strong) UNMutableNotificationContent *bestAttemptContent;
@property (nonatomic, strong) UNNotificationRequest *request;

@end

@implementation NotificationService

- (void)didReceiveNotificationRequest:(UNNotificationRequest *)request withContentHandler:(void (^)(UNNotificationContent * _Nonnull))contentHandler {
    self.contentHandler = contentHandler;
    self.bestAttemptContent = [request.content mutableCopy];
    self.request = request;

    [Indigitall didReceiveNotificationRequest:self.request withContentHandler:self.contentHandler];

}

    if (self.contentHandler != nil && self.bestAttemptContent != nil){

    }
}

AppDelegate Implementation

Add the following lines to register for push notifications:

Ti.Network.registerForPushNotifications({ success: function(e){
    var deviceToken = Ti.App.Properties.getString('APNSRemoteDeviceUUID', false);
    tiindigitall.setDeviceToken(deviceToken);
}, error: function(error) {
    //log error
}});
