I was getting some issues with react-native-fcm and react-native-push-notification, so I decided to try react-native-firebase.
I am able to receive the following payload sent by the server when the app is in foreground:
{
"to":"FCM_TOKEN",
"data": {
"icon": "http://host.com/img.jpg",
"title": "xyz title",
"body": "sadsaddsasadsda",
"click_action": "https://host.com/id/391",
"data": "some json.stringify custom data"
}
}
However, when the app is in background, FCM.onMessage() isn't receiving any notification at all. I could receive those data in the background with react-native-fcm or react-native-push-notification, so I wonder if this is the limitation of react-native-firebase.
wixRoutes.js
import firebase from 'react-native-firebase';
import {Navigation} from 'react-native-navigation';
let FCM = firebase.messaging();
FCM.requestPermissions();
FCM.getToken().then(token=>{
console.log('has token',token);
});
FCM.onTokenRefresh((refreshedToken) => {
console.log(refreshedToken);
});
FCM.onMessage((message=>{
console.log('new message',message);
}));
FCM.getInitialNotification().then(notif => {
console.log('initial message',notif);
});
function startApp() {
Navigation.startSingleScreenApp(/..../);
}
startApp();
AndroidManifest.xml
<!-- FCM -->
