- |
-<p>Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) is a service for both Android-powered device and |
-Chrome instances to send and receive message data from servers. <a href="gcm">GCM Chrome |
-API</a> allows the Chrome apps or extensions to access the GCM |
-service for the signed-in Chrome users. The service works even if an app or |
-extension isn't currently running. For example, calendar updates could be pushed |
-to users even when their calendar app isn't open. </p> |
- |
-<p>To use both API and service, you must agree to the <a href="https://developers.google.com/terms/">Google APIs Terms of |
-Service</a> and <a href="https://developers.google.com/cloud/terms/">Google Cloud Platform Terms |
-of Service</a>.</p> |
- |
-<p>This document describes how to set up and use GCM. For additional information |
-see the reference documentation for the <a href="gcm">GCM Chrome API</a> and |
-the <a href="http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/index.html">GCM Service</a>. To get |
-help with GCM or to give us feedback, please see |
-<a href="#feedback">Feedback</a>.</p> |
- |
-<p>Please note that GCM Chrome API is experimental. It is only available to Chrome |
-users on the dev channel.</p> |
- |

-sample.</p> |
- |
-<h2 id="enable_gcm">Enable GCM</h2> |
- |
-<p>To use GCM for your app or extension, do the following:</p> |
- |
-<ol> |
-<li>Upload your app or extension client to the <a href="https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/publish">Chrome Web |
-Store</a>.</li> |
-<li>A user installs your app or extension.</li> |
-<li>Your app or extension client requests a registration ID using $(ref:gcm.register) |
-function and sends this ID to your server together with information |
-identifying the user. For more details, please see <a href="#obtain_registration_id">Obtain registration |
-ID</a>.</li> |
-</ol> |
- |
-<h2 id="receive_a_message">Receive a message</h2> |
- |
-<p>At a glance, receiving a message works like this:</p> |
- |
-<ol> |
-<li>Your app or extension client should register a handler to receive the |
-$(ref:gcm.onMessage) event.</li> |
-<li>When your server sends a message to the user, it specifies all of the |
-registration IDs that are related to that user and passes the message to the |
-GCM service.</li> |
-<li>GCM servers route the message to all instances of Chrome running apps or |
-extensions with one of the registration IDs.</li> |
-<li>When the message arrives on the client, Chrome starts the app or extension, |
-if it is not already running, and calls the registered handler to process the |
-message.</li> |
-</ol> |
- |
-<p>For more details, please see <a href="#receive_messages">Receive messages</a>.</p> |
- |
-<h2 id="send_a_message">Send a message</h2> |
- |
-<p>At a glance, sending a message works like this:</p> |
- |
-<ol> |
-<li>Your app or extension generates a unique message ID, so that it is possible |
-to find out which message failed to be queued or delivered.</li> |
-<li>Your app or extension calls $(ref:gcm.send) function with an object containing |
-message ID, destination ID that identifies the server, and data that consist |
-of a list of key value pairs. In this step you can also provide an optional |
-time-to-live for the message.</li> |
-<li>The callback passed to $(ref:gcm.send) function will be called to notify the |
-result. Your app or extension should check $(ref:runtime.lastError) to find out if |
-the message has been successfully queued for delivery. Please refer to <a href="#error_reference">Error |
-reference</a> for possible error codes that could be |
-returned.</li> |
-<li>In cases that the queued message could not be delivered to the GCM server, |
-like network error, a $(ref:gcm.onSendError) event will be fired. Your app or |
-extension can listen to this event and react to it, e.g. by trying to resend |
-the message. Please refer to <a href="#error_reference">Error reference</a> for |
-possible error codes that could be returned.</li> |
-</ol> |

- |
-<p>To use the gcm service, you must declare the <code>gcm</code> permission in |
-<code>manifest.json</code>.</p> |
- |
-<pre data-filename="manifest.json"><code> |
-"permissions": [ |
- "gcm", "storage", ... |
-] |
-</code></pre> |
- |
-<p>Please note that the <code>storage</code> permission is also provided here because the |

-<h2 id="write_chrome_app_or_extension">Write Chrome App or Extension</h2> |
- |
-<h3 id="obtain_registration_id">Obtain registration ID</h3> |
- |
-<p>Your app or extension needs to register with GCM servers before it can receive |
-messages. When an app or extension registers, it receives a registration ID. |
-This is achieved by calling $(ref:gcm.register) and specifying a list of senders |
-identified by project numbers from Google Developers Console. Your app or |
-extension should pass a callback function to verify that the registration was |
-successful. If successful, the received registration ID should be sent back to |
-your application server in a secure way, for example, via https. Otherwise, your |
-app or extension should handle the error identified by |
-<code>chrome.runtime.lastError</code> and retry later.</p> |
- |
-<p>If your app or extension wishes to receive messages from the different senders, |
-it can call $(ref:gcm.register) again with the new sender list and the new |
-registration ID will be returned.</p> |
- |
-<pre data-filename="background.js"><code> |
-function registerCallback(registrationId) { |
- if (chrome.runtime.lastError) { |
- // When the registration fails, handle the error and retry the |
- // registration later. |
- return; |
- } |
- |
- // Send the registration ID to your application server. |
- sendRegistrationId(function(succeed) { |
- // Once the registration ID is received by your server, |
- // set the flag such that register will not be invoked |
- // next time when the app starts up. |
- if (succeed) |
- chrome.storage.local.set({registered: true}); |
- }); |
-} |
- |
-function sendRegistrationId(callback) { |
- // Send the registration ID to your application server |
- // in a secure way. |
-} |
- |
-chrome.runtime.onStartup.addListener(function() { |
- chrome.storage.local.get("registered", function(result) { |
- // If already registered, bail out. |
- if (result["registered"]) |
- return; |
- |
- // Up to 100 senders are allowed. |
- var senderIds = ["Your-Sender-ID"]; |
- chrome.gcm.register(senderIds, registerCallback); |
- }); |
-}); |
-</code></pre> |
- |
-<p>If your app or extension is installed in different profiles and/or in different |
-Chrome instances, each of them will receive a different registration ID.</p> |
- |
-<p>Your app or extension could call $(ref:gcm.unregister) to revoke the registration ID. |
-The unregistration should only be done in rare cases, such as if your app or |
-extension does not want to receive further messages, or the registration ID is |
-suspected to be compromised.</p> |
- |
-<pre data-filename="background.js"><code> |
-function unregisterCallback() { |
- if (chrome.runtime.lastError) { |
- // When the unregistration fails, handle the error and retry |
- // the unregistration later. |
- return; |
- } |
-} |
- |
-chrome.gcm.unregister(unregisterCallback); |
-</code></pre> |
- |
-<p>Your app or extension is automatically unregistered from the GCM service when a |
-user uninstalls it.</p> |
- |
-<h3 id="receive_messages">Receive messages</h3> |
- |
-<p>When your server sends a message to the user, it specifies all of the |
-registration IDs that are related to that user and passes the message to the GCM |
-service. GCM servers route the message to all instances of Chrome running apps |
-or extensions with one of the registration IDs. If your app or extension has |
-been installed in more than one profiles in a single Chrome instance, all of |
-them can receive messages independently based on their unique registration IDs.</p> |
- |
-<p>Messages from the server are delivered via the $(ref:gcm.onMessage) event. Your app |
-or extension must register a handler to receive this event.</p> |
- |
-<pre data-filename="background.js"><code> |
-chrome.gcm.onMessage.addListener(function(message) { |
- // A message is an object with a data property that |
- // consists of key-value pairs. |
-}); |
-</code></pre> |
- |
-<p>As long as Chrome is running, even if the extension or app is not running, it is |
-woken up to deliver a message.</p> |
- |
-<h3 id="send_messages">Send messages</h3> |
- |
-<p>To send messages upstream, your app or extension should call $(ref:gcm.send) with an |
-object containing:</p> |
- |
-<ul> |
-<li>Message ID that identifies the message when it fails to be queued or |
-delivered. The message ID can be any kind of string. However, it is |
-recommended to stay unique across the lifetime of your app or extension, even |
-after it restarts. If you use the same message ID, there may be a chance that |
-the previous message gets overridden. If an auto-increment counter is used to |
-create the message ID, your app or extension should persist the counter value |
-via <a href="storage">chrome.storage</a> API and restore it when the app |
-reloads.</li> |
-<li>Destination ID that identifies the server. This is the project number from the |
-Google Developers Console plus the suffix "@gcm.googleapis.com".</li> |
-<li>Data that consist of a list of string-to-string key value pairs (up to 4KB |
-total).</li> |
-<li>Time-to-live (TTL, optional). This property value must be a duration from 0 to |
-2,419,200 seconds (4 weeks) and it corresponds to the maximum period of time |
-for which GCM will store and try to deliver the message. If this property is |
-not set, it is default to the maximum value. When a TTL is set to 0, GCM will |
-try to deliver the message immediately. If the immediate effort fails, the |
-message will be discarded.</li> |
-</ul> |
- |
-<p>When the callback passed in $(ref:gcm.send) is called without runtime error, it does |
-not mean that the message was already delivered to the GCM server. Rather, it |
-means that it was queued for delivery. If the message fails to reach the |
-destination within the specified TTL period, for example due to network error, |
-the $(ref:gcm.onSendError) will be fired.</p> |
- |
-<pre data-filename="background.js"><code> |
-// Substitute your own sender ID here. This is the project |
-// number you got from the Google Developers Console. |
-var senderId = "Your-Sender-ID"; |
- |
-// Make the message ID unique across the lifetime of your app. |
-// One way to achieve this is to use the auto-increment counter |
-// that is persisted to local storage. |

-// Message ID is saved to and restored from local storage. |

- |
-<h3 id="messages_deleted_event">Messages deleted event</h3> |
- |
-<p>GCM will store up to 100 non-collapsible messages. After that, all messages are |
-discarded from GCM, and an event $(ref:gcm.onMessagesDeleted) will be fired, which |
-tells the client that it falls behind. Your app or extension should respond by |
-syncing with your application server to recover the discarded messages.</p> |
- |
-<pre data-filename="background.js"><code> |
-chrome.gcm.onMessagesDeleted.addListener(messagesDeleted); |
- |
-function messagesDeleted() { |
- // All messages have been discarded from GCM. Sync with |
- // your application server to recover from the situation. |
-} |
-</code></pre> |
- |
-<h3 id="collapsible_messages">Collapsible messages</h3> |
- |
-<p>GCM messages are often a tickle, telling the app or extension to contact the |
-server for fresh data. In GCM, it's possible to create collapsible messages for |
-this situation, wherein new messages replace older ones. When a collapse key is |
-provided and multiple messages are queued up in the GCM servers for the same |
-user, only the last one with any given collapse key is delivered to your app or |
-extension. As a result the <code>message</code> object passed to the $(ref:gcm.onMessage) event |
-will contain a <code>collapseKey</code>field. For more details about sending collapsible |
-messages, please refer to <a href="http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/adv.html#collapsible">GCM Advance |
-Topics</a>.</p> |

-<h2 id="publish_your_app">Publish your app</h2> |
- |
-<p>To use the GCM service, you must publish your app in the <a href="https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/publish">Chrome Web |
-Store</a>.</p> |
- |
-<h2 id="error_reference">Error reference</h2> |
- |
-<p>An error could occur when a gcm API function is called. Your app or extension |
-should check $(ref:runtime.lastError) for more information in your callback. The |
-error code will also be passed as a parameter to $(ref:gcm.onSendError) event.</p> |
- |
-<p>Here's a brief summary of the gcm errors:</p> |
- |
-<ul> |
-<li><strong>Function was called with invalid parameters</strong>: this could happen when gcm |
-functions are called with bad parameters.</li> |
-<li><strong>Profile was not signed in</strong>: this could happen when gcm functions are called |
-from a profile that was not signed in.</li> |
-<li><strong>Asynchronous operation is pending</strong>: this could happen when certain gcm |
-function is called again without waiting for the callback passed in previous |
-function to be called.</li> |
-<li><strong>Network error occurred</strong>: this could happen when GCM server fails to reach |
-due to network problem, like losing Internet connection.</li> |
-<li><strong>Server error occurred</strong>: this could happen when GCM server fails to reach |
-due to server problem, like server busy.</li> |
-<li><strong>Time-to-live exceeded</strong>: this could happen when a message could not be |
-delivered within the specific time-to-live period.</li> |
-<li><strong>Unknown error occurred</strong>: this could happen due to any other internal |
-errors.</li> |
-</ul> |
