errorCallback() & Feedback about node-apn HOT 4 CLOSED

Apple will only send an error back if there is a problem, it doesn't send confirmation when the message is delivered because of the high volume of notifications they handle. You could have a very short timer (~1-2seconds) and if an error hasn't been thrown since then you can assume it was sent successfully. But it's best not to do anything, it's a "fire and forget" system. You could perhaps notify the user by some other means if an error occurs?

I know that Apple doesn't send confirmation when the message is delivered.

I've html page where I create the message to send. When I click on send button I check in my database the corresponding devices which have these parameters and I create the payload and send it to the APNS with your 'plugin'. When an error occur you try again, if I'm not wrong.

I want to send to the html page the errors and show it. Any idea ?

Thanks

When an error occurs the library will attempt to find the notification sent immediately after the one which failed and resume sending from there (if your cache - set in options - isn't big enough then messages may be lost). Whenever an error occurs errorCallback will be called with the notification in question which caused the problem. What I suppose you could do is have each notification failure logged to a database and then have a webpage which can query the database of errors to show any appropriate to the user.
