I am keen to do some modifications to the Discourse Mobile app to get push notifications working for our self-hosted installation of Discourse, particularly on iOS. From reading the What if I want to white-label the Discourse Mobile apps? thread, it seems that I would need to configure the allowed u…

I did a bit of trawling through the Discourse source code, and found the following in the post_alerter.rb file: app/services/post_alerter.rb c531f4ded MessageBus.publish("/notification-alert/#{user.id}", payload, user_ids: [user.id]) push_…

[이미지] skoota: does each user who wants to opt-in for push notifications need a user-based API key? yes [이미지] skoota: I am still not sure about the workflow of how a user would start an iOS app, agree to receive push notifications, and then all the stuff on the backend of Discourse happen…

Thanks for the info @sam [이미지] sam: When you create your user api key and “approve” the app to read access, push access is implied. This can be controlled by your mobile phone anyway cause you can later on disallow push notifications. Okay, so I am still a bit confused here… Am I correct …

[이미지] skoota: Am I correct that users cannot create their own API keys? No that is 100% incorrect. api keys and user api keys are two completely different things, see (which may need a bit of updating): [이미지] User API keys specification Integrations Di…

Righto, I am now starting to understand. So am I correct in saying that when a user logs into the Discourse Mobile app, and goes through the authorisation screen (to authorise the Discourse Mobile app / device to their Discourse account), it automatically creates a user API key for the Discourse Mo…

[이미지] skoota: If it must be hardcoded, a totally basic question for you - how can I get that into my production instance? I am not following your question at all, I linked to source code for the mobile app you are planning on re-branding… [이미지] skoota: Do I also need to hardcode in the p…

[이미지] sam: I am not following your question at all, I linked to source code for the mobile app you are planning on re-branding… Sorry, my bad. I have been looking at the Discourse source code all morning and I didn’t notice that was the mobile app. Makes far more sense now :slight_smile: One…

[이미지] skoota: to allow the Discourse admin to control/limit where pushes can be sent regardless of what an external app registered? Correct, that is the point, end users have only limited control over where push notifications go. This is required for security, cause a rogue app could then mak…

Thanks @sam . Appreciate your help :slight_smile:

@skoota Just stumbled upon this. I am trying to do something similar for our own discourse. Were you able to get push notifications working?
