Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To send push notification you should have apple .pem certificate.

Constructor params and default values:

```
use autoxloo\apns\AppleNotificationServer;

$appleCertPath = __DIR__ . '/wxv_cert.pem';

$apns = new AppleNotificationServer(
    $appleCertPath,
    $apiUrl = 'https://api.push.apple.com/3/device',
    $apiUrlDev = 'https://api.sandbox.push.apple.com/3/device',
    $apnsPort = 443,
    $pushTimeOut = 10,
    $topic = null,
    $expiration = null,
    $pushType = null
);
```

Sending push notification:

```
use autoxloo\apns\AppleNotificationServer;

$appleCertPath = __DIR__ . '/wxv_cert.pem';
$token = 'some device token';
$payload = [
    'some key1' => 'some value1',
    'some key2' => 'some value2',
];

$apns = new AppleNotificationServer($appleCertPath);
$response = $apns->send($token, $payload);
```

or if you want to send to many tokens:

```
use autoxloo\apns\AppleNotificationServer;

$appleCertPath = __DIR__ . '/wxv_cert.pem';
$tokens = [
    'some device token',
    'some other device token',
];
$payload = [
    'some key1' => 'some value1',
    'some key2' => 'some value2',
];

$apns = new AppleNotificationServer($appleCertPath);
$response = $apns->sendToMany($tokens, $payload);
```

If you want to send push notification with some `apns-push-type`, you need certificate compilable with this push type and to set `AppleNotificationServer::$pushType` in constructor or with set method:

```
use autoxloo\apns\AppleNotificationServer;

$appleCertPath = __DIR__ . '/wxv_cert.pem';
$token = 'some device token';
$payload = [
    'some key1' => 'some value1',
    'some key2' => 'some value2',
];

$apns = new AppleNotificationServer($appleCertPath);
$apns->setPushType(AppleNotificationServer::PUSH_TYPE_BACKGROUND);  // sets `apns-push-type` header.
// other available set methods:
$apns->setTopic('some topic');  // sets `apns-topic` header.
$apns->setExpiration(time() + 30);  // sets `apns-expiration` header.
$apns->setExpiration(0);  // sets `apns-expiration` header. If the value is 0, APNs attempts to deliver
                          // the notification only once and doesn’t store it.
$response = $apns->send($token, $payload);
```

`AppleNotificationServer` sends push notification first on `$apiUrl` () if not success (not status code `200`), then sends on `$apiUrlDev` (). If you don't want to send push notification on `$apiUrlDev` set it value to `false`. Also, if you want to send push notification only on dev url, you can do so like this (set `$apiUrl` with dev url value):

```
use autoxloo\apns\AppleNotificationServer;

$apns = new AppleNotificationServer($appleCertPath, 'https://api.sandbox.apple.com/3/device', false);
```
