The AeroGear UnifiedPush Server is a server that allows sending push notifications to different (mobile) platforms and has support for:

• Apple’s APNs (HTTP/2)
• Firebase Cloud Messaging
• Microsoft's Windows Push Notification service (WNS)

The easiest way to get started is running our plain Linux container:

mvn clean install -DskipTests && docker run -p 18081:8080 -it aerogear/ups:plain 

then go to http://localhost:18081/ to use the UPS.

For our on-premise version, and more infos on database setup, please consult our user guide!

For your convenience, we do have an easy way of launch different configurations of the UPS, using our Docker compose files

For more details about the current release, please consult our documentation.

We have a list of users in our wiki. If you are using the UnifiedPush Server, please add yourself to the list!

Build the project:

mvn clean install

and start the latest build, locally, like docker run -p 18081:8080 -it aerogear/ups:plain

The Unified Push Server can be configured with either System Properties (passed to the Java commandline) or Environment Variables. The two options have different formats and the following list describes them using System Property Name/Env Var Name: Purpose.

• custom.aerogear.apns.push.host/CUSTOM_AEROGEAR_APNS_PUSH_HOST: Custom host for sending Apple push notifications. Can be used for testing
• custom.aerogear.apns.push.port/CUSTOM_AEROGEAR_APNS_PUSH_PORT: Custom port for the Apple Push Network host
• custom.aerogear.fcm.push.host/CUSTOM_AEROGEAR_FCM_PUSH_HOST: Custom host for sending Google Firebase push notifications. Can be used for testing
• ups.realm.name/UPS_REALM_NAME: Override Keycloak Realm
• ups.auth.server.url/UPS_AUTH_SERVER_URL: Override Keycloak authentication redirect
• aerogear.metrics.storage.days/AEROGEAR_METRICS_STORAGE_DAYS: Override the number of days the metrics are stored (default is 30 days)

The content of the Release Process is valid for this project as well. However, to build the full distribution bundle, you need to fire off the release like:

## prepare the release and define the TAG and adjust the versions:
mvn release:prepare -Dtag=x.y.z.Final -Darguments=-Dgpg.passphrase=$MY_SECRET_PASS_PHRASE -Pdist,test

## run the actual release process and load the artifacts to JBoss Nexus
mvn release:perform -DperformRelease=true -Darguments=-Dgpg.passphrase=$MY_SECRET_PASS_PHRASE -Dgpg.useagent=true -Pdist,test
