Easyapns service and Push Notification
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet...
Apple Push Notification Service (APNs for short) is the centerpiece of the push notifications feature. It is a robust and highly efficient service for propagating information to devices such as iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices.
Apple Push Notification Service transports and routes a notification from a given provider to a given device. A notification is a short message consisting of two major pieces of data: the device token and the payload. The device token is analogous to a phone number; it contains information that enables APNs to locate the device on which the client application is installed. APNs also uses it to authenticate the routing of a notification. The payload is a JSON-defined property list that specifies how the user of an application on a device is to be alerted.
If you are a native iPhone application developer, you may have heard of the Apple Push Notification service (APNs). There are a lot of excellent online guides on how to get your application to receive remote notifications... but what about the other piece of the puzzle... ACTUALLY SENDING A MESSAGE?!?!
About The Module
The easyapns module have been developed using the easyapns library (http://www.easyapns.com).
easyapns is a open source library made in php, that had simplified the process of pushing notification to apple devices.
What it does?
By using this module we can send a push notification on any device of apple like iPhone, iPad, iPod touch devices using the device token provided by apple.
How It does?
The module have been synchronized with the users table of drupal.
after enabling the module it will create three tables in the database that are used for taking the record of messages and synchronising the used id with the device token.
While adding any user and filling the apple id field it will insert the entry in database table relating that apple id with user id, when system will send message to a user, the message will be send to the particular device of that user.
Requirements and Dependancy ?
cck module
content profile module
both modules are required to create a field named as 'Apple Id' in the user profile, that is used to relate the user with device token (apple id)
