onNotification not running for a remote notification

[Ruzen1]

Question

Hey I am trying to get the onNotification to run from a remote notification. However I am not being able to get the onNotification to run. Could you suggest me? I have checked the example but it only contains the localNotification codes right? Can you please guide me to a remote notification example?

React native version : 0.61.3
"react-native-push-notification": "^3.5.2",

Here are my codes.

index.js

import {AppRegistry} from 'react-native'
import App from './src/App'
import {name as appName} from './app.json'
import BackgroundGeolocation from 'react-native-background-geolocation'
import PassingBooksProcessor from './src/services/passingBooksProcessorService'

AppRegistry.registerComponent(appName, () => App)

import PushNotificationIOS from '@react-native-community/push-notification-ios'
import PushNotification from 'react-native-push-notification'

// Must be outside of any component LifeCycle (such as `componentDidMount`).
PushNotification.configure({
   // (optional) Called when Token is generated (iOS and Android)
   onRegister: function(token) {
       console.log('TOKEN:', token)
   },

   // (required) Called when a remote is received or opened, or local notification is opened
   onNotification: function(notification) {
       console.log('NOTIFICATION:', notification)

       // process the notification

       // (required) Called when a remote is received or opened, or local notification is opened
       notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData)
   },

   // (optional) Called when Registered Action is pressed and invokeApp is false, if true onNotification will be called (Android)
   onAction: function(notification) {
       console.log('ACTION:', notification.action)
       console.log('NOTIFICATION:', notification)

       // process the action
   },

   // (optional) Called when the user fails to register for remote notifications. Typically occurs when APNS is having issues, or the device is a simulator. (iOS)
   onRegistrationError: function(err) {
       console.error(err.message, err)
   },

   // IOS ONLY (optional): default: all - Permissions to register.
   permissions: {
       alert: true,
       badge: true,
       sound: true,
   },

   // Should the initial notification be popped automatically
   // default: true
   popInitialNotification: true,

   /**
    * (optional) default: true
    * - Specified if permissions (ios) and token (android and ios) will requested or not,
    * - if not, you must call PushNotificationsHandler.requestPermissions() later
    * - if you are not using remote notification or do not have Firebase installed, use this:
    *     requestPermissions: Platform.OS === 'ios'

Hi,
When do you want to call onNotification ? On app open ? When a remote notification arrives ?
What is the payload of your remote notification ?
All information exist in issues history.
Regards

[abhideepmallick]

Here is my notification service class:

import { Platform } from 'react-native';
import PushNotificationIOS from '@react-native-community/push-notification-ios';
import PushNotification from 'react-native-push-notification';

import emitter from 'tiny-emitter/instance';

import { ANDROID_SENDER_ID } from '../../shared/settings/Constants';

import processNotification from '../helpers/PushNotificationHelper';


let hasStarted = false;
let pushToken = null;
let badgeNumber = 0;

export const getPushToken = () => pushToken;
export const getBadgeNumber = () => badgeNumber;

export const startNotifications = () => {
  PushNotification.configure({
    onRegister: (token) => {
      if (hasStarted) return;

      console.log('TOKEN:', token);
      pushToken = token;
      emitter.emit('push-notification-token-updated', token);
      hasStarted = true;
    },
    onNotification: (notification) => {
      console.log('notification: ', notification);
      // Normalise the notification across iOS and Android
      if (!notification) return;

      // TODO: this processing might be incomplete....
      // TODO: URL decode on the text?
      const notificationData = processNotification(Platform.OS, notification);
      console.log('notificationData: ', notificationData);

      emitter.emit('push-notification-received', notificationData);

      if (notification.badge) {
        badgeNumber = notification.badge;
        console.log('badgeNumber: ', badgeNumber);
        emitter.emit('push-notification-badge-changed', badgeNumber);
        PushNotification.setApplicationIconBadgeNumber(badgeNumber);
      }


      // Avoid being throttled on iOS by notifying the system that
      // we're done with a notification
      if (Platform.OS === 'ios'
            && notification
            && notification.finish
            && typeof notification.finish === 'function'
      ) {
        if (
          notification
              && PushNotificationIOS
              && PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult
              && PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData
        ) {
          notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData);
        }
      }
    },
    senderID: ANDROID_SENDER_ID,
    popInitialNotification: false,
    requestPermissions: true,
  });
};

I call the startNotifications(); function from app.js file. I am successfully getting the console.log('TOKEN:', token); log but not the console.log('notification: ', notification); log when the notification is supposed to be received. This problem exists in both iOS and Android platforms and we have checked our push notifications server to confirm that it is sending the notifications successfully.

I am using react-native-push-notification version 7.3.1.

[Dallas62]

Can you share the remote notification payload, without it I can't help.

Yep

@Dallas62 here is the payload

[Dallas62]

The payload doesn't seems to be a valid Firebase or APN payload.
If you are using another provider you should contact this provider.

[abhideepmallick]

This is the payload sent via AWS to the device. @Dallas62 we can't yet log anything on the front end as onNotification isn't firing and the log isn't showing up.

I'm having the same issue, the only difference is that I'm sending some test notifications using FBC.
Relevant code:

export const configure = () => {
  PushNotification.configure({
    onRegister: function ({token}) {
      console.log(token);
    },

    onNotification: function (notification) {
      console.log('NOTIFICATION:', notification);
      notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData);
    },

    onAction: function (notification) {
      console.log('ACTION:', notification.action);
      console.log('NOTIFICATION:', notification);
    },

    onRegistrationError: function (err) {
      console.error(err.message, err);
    },

    permissions: {
      alert: true,
      badge: true,
      sound: true,
    },

    popInitialNotification: true,
    requestPermissions: true,
  });
};

and then, in index.js

import {configure} from './src/helpers/notifications';
....
configure();
....
AppRegistry.registerComponent(appName, () => App);

The token is printed and but no notifications are displayed. Maybe FB is down?
I double-checked the google-services file which is placed in android/app/google-services.

Thanks in advance.

There is multiple kind of notifications, do not mix concept. Firebase Console will never trigger onNotification in background, it's sending notification-only.

To trigger onNotification in background you must send a data-only notification:
APNS:
https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/CreatingtheNotificationPayload.html
Configuring a Background Update Notification

Firebase:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/concept-options

There is already many closed issues about this kind of issue and a TROUBLESHOOTING file.

@Dallas62 I have added the full version of the payload as well for your reference here #2017 (comment)

[Dallas62]

This is the payload sent via AWS to the device. @Dallas62 we can't yet log anything on the front end as onNotification isn't firing and the log isn't showing up.

Full version:

{
	"default": "Great news, Anthony!\n\nYour booking of No 39 Soi Suanplu,  for 1 day was successful.",
	"APNS_SANDBOX": "{\"aps\":{\"alert\":{\"title\":\"Booking successful\",\"body\":\"Great news, Anthony!Your booking of No 39 Soi Suanplu, for 1 day was successful.\\n\"},\"badge\":0,\"sound\":\"default\",\"category\":\"bookingApproved\"},\"object_id\":1567,\"message_category\":\"bookingApproved\"}",
	"APNS": "{\"aps\":{\"alert\":{\"title\":\"Booking successful\",\"body\":\"Great news, Anthony!Your booking of No 39 Soi Suanplu, for 1 day was successful.\\n\"},\"badge\":0,\"sound\":\"default\",\"category\":\"bookingApproved\"},\"object_id\":1567,\"message_category\":\"bookingApproved\"}",
	"GCM": "{\"notification\":{\"body\":\"Great news, Anthony!Your booking of No 39 Soi Suanplu,  for 1 day was successful.\\n\",\"title\":\"Booking successful\",\"icon\":\"ic_notification\"},\"data\":{\"body\":\"Great news, Anthony!Your booking of No 39 Soi Suanplu, for 1 day was successful.\\n\",\"title\":\"Booking successful\",\"object_id\":1567,\"message_category\":\"bookingApproved\",\"badge\":0,\"largeIcon\":\"ic_notification\",\"smallIcon\":\"ic_notification\"},\"priority\":\"high\"}"
}

@abhideepmallick Both payload are for notification-only, they will not trigger onNotification until the notification is pressed. You must send a data-only notification to trigger onNotification in background. Refer to links provided.

Same issue in Android. Here's my case

1. A remote notification arrives
2. onNotification is executed correctly. (data, title and message arrive OK)
3. User presses the notification
4. onNotification doesn't get executed (neither if the app is in foreground or background)

Notification structure

{
    "data": {
        ....
    },
    "notification": {
        "title": "Test title",
        "body": "Test body"
    }
}

Environment

"react-native": "0.63.4",
"react-native-push-notification": "7.3.1"

@ignaciosantise It's not the same issue. You can look into the Readme:

If your app has an @OverRide on onNewIntent in MainActivity.java ensure that function includes a super call on onNewIntent > (if your MainActivity.java does not have an @OverRide for onNewIntent skip this):

    @Override
    public void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
        ...
        super.onNewIntent(intent);
        ...
    }

Or search in issue history for "splashscreen".

[ignaciosantise]

Thanks @Dallas62 for your help. It was an issue with the splashscreen. This comment helped me #1592 (comment)

Also had the problem that onNotification was not fired for a remote notification on Android. The Installation section says

NOTE: For Android, you will still have to manually update the AndroidManifest.xml (as below) in order to use Scheduled Notifications.

We were only using remote notification, not scheduled ones, but adding the extra lines to AndroidManifest.xml did the trick for us. Spent lots of time on this issue, but finally started to try the various manual installations options which was how i found this out.
