Custom payload not coming through about node-apn HOT 8 CLOSED

I will need to investigate this further, but at first glance it would seem that whatever is getting printed out there is only the data within the 'aps' namespace of the notification. Can you provide some context of the code you are running on iOS so I can help.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I created a gist https://gist.github.com/877914
with the objective-c class that handles all push-related things in my app

Background:  am using phonegap to run the app in webview, so the class essentially acts as a glue between native ios stuff and the javascript app. The relevant methods at the bottom are [setNotificationMessage] which stores the notification data in a global variable (notificationMessage), and [notificationReceived], which converts the data into JSON (using the JSON Framework library: http://stig.github.com/json-framework/
) and invokes the app by call a delegate javascript method.

Note that the log statement from line 89 NSLog(@"setNotificationMessage:%@", notification); spits out exactly the snippet below which rules out the JSON conversion as a potential culprit

setNotificationMessage:{
    alert = "You have a new message";
    badge = 3;
    sound = "ping.aiff";
}

Hum...I accidentally changed the status to 'closed' and apparently you can't re-open an issue unless you're a contributor on the repository. Can we consider this issue as open for all practical purposes ? :)

Are you by any chance using the Urban Airship Push notification class?

from node-apn.

Yes and no - it's derived from the urbanairship plugin for phonegap, but it does not use urbanairship (plugs in directly into APN)

Check your AppDelegate class because in the standard samples objectForKey:@"aps" is called on the notification dictionary in at least two places which will strip out the custom payload.

Try changing these lines to return the dictionary directly and see if that works.

Bingo, you're absolutely right - I had completely forgotten about the very existence of these AppDelegate's methods. It worked like a charm after I implemented your suggestion.

Apologize for the trouble....can't say how much I appreciate you looking into it: Thank you !

No problem, glad the library is of use to you.
