<![CDATA[NodeRed Ubports push notification support?]]>I am looking for someone to help implementing a Ubports push notification system for the really cool flow automation system NodeRed (very commonly used in home automatisation on a RasberryPi): https://nodered.org/

There is already an existing node for Apple and Google push notifications, which could be extended:
https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-push
https://github.com/Xzya/node-red-contrib-push

Ubport's push notification system is documented here:
http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/appdev/guides/pushnotifications.html
and seems quite similar to existing systems.

I am a bit out of my current level of expertise to do this myself, so help would be much appreciated.

Starting from scratch would be reinventing the wheel when there are those nice existing NodeRed nodes. But they reference further NodeJS libraries and while all of that is probably not a big deal for an somewhat experienced Javascript developer, I am somewhat lost looking at it 😕

The push server only needs to receive 1 HTTP request with the right data, and your App needs to register for push, take the token from that result and send it to your server. This is not so hard to do, you will find examples with other Apps as krille mentioned, and sending an HTTP push message is something you can also copy from the internet.

I could probably help with bug-fixing and testing, but the main bulk would have to be done by someone who actually knows what they are going 😞

I dont have much time but will try to answer as soon as possible. First would be that you make your app ready to receive Push Notifications described in the guide in the docs and then you can send them with a http request similar to Google Firebase. The json fields just need to get other names and thats it.

Btw in the openstore you find the app PushClient where you cann see a minimal working example to use the UBports Push Service
