PWA push notifications

@danh said in PWA push notifications:
Hi @julian, I'm planning to work on one anyway.
great to hear this
please let me know when it is ready to test, so I can start testing -
@crazycells I'd also be interested in this
-
@phenomlab @danh @crazycells ok, will open source the code later today.
Firebase is just the backend platform/service. You'll be able to use it to send push notifications iOS on it now (hopefully)
-
@bh4-tech @crazycells The plugin has now been open sourced.
https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-firebase
There is no guarantee that it works as intended, and given that the code is 4 years old, it likely will need some updates to work with v3.x

@julian thanks a bunch @julian ... on an unrelated note, I do not get notification on the forum or on ntfy when you tag me anymore... I believe it is related to what @baris wrote here before... https://community.nodebb.org/message/71603
-
@crazycells Thanks for the reminder. I'll take a look.

@oplik0 Noticed that you have cloned the repository. Are you planning to make it compatible with current version of NodeBB?
Asking this because I installed the plugin and upon opening its admin page got (console) error- Cannot find module './plugins/firebase'. The UI for configuration also does not load. -
@bh4-tech yes, sorry for late response, I was just quite busy the last few weeks I'm planning to make the plugin work, but sadly it'll need a bit more work than just making it compatible with current NodeBB version as it's using a deprecated firebase API that's going to stop working this June...
And it's doing that because the new API requires a bit more setup to work... So this will need to be implemented.
I'll probably start working on it mid-June, once this semester ends for me, since as I mentioned I'm a bit too busy right now.
