Push Notifications

Developer Edition

POWERED BY ONESIGNAL

The Push Notifications Plugin lets you add Push Notifications to your App (Android only, iOS doesn’t supports yet this feature for PWA)

oneSignal Plugin is only available for PWA (WebApp) projects.

In order to enable this Plugin, you have first to create an account at oneSignal

https://app.onesignal.com/

Important: if you want the Push Notifications to work correctly, your PWA must be served over https.

Then, from the oneSignal Dashboard, you can create a new App:

Then, select “Web Push” as platform:

….And “Typical Site” as Integration:

You must enter the URL of your PWA, as described, if your PWA is located within a subfolder (eg. https://wwwmydomain.com/mypwa ), don’t enter here the subfolder, but just the root url (https://wwwmydomain.com)

You can setup a Welcome notification:

Service Worker Setup

oneSignal implements a Service Worker in order to work even if the App is not launched on the user’s mobile.
If your PWA is hosted inside a subfolder of the root domain, then you must activate the option “Customize Service Worker” and enter the following values:

Path to server worker files :

if your PWA is located in the sub-folder “ myapp ” of the root domain
" https://www.mydomain.com ” then enter /myapp/ in this field.

Main service worker filename :
