$connection->certPath = '/path/to/http2/cert.pem';

$aps = new Swaroop\Apns2\MessageAPSBody();
$aps->alert = 'test 1';
$aps->sound = 'default';

$message = new Swaroop\Apns2\Message();
$message->aps = $aps;

$options = new Swaroop\Apns2\Options();
$options->apnsTopic = 'your.bundle.id';

$responses = $connection->send([
    '81fbf7e296f6c94755832a48476182e4e9586a380116e18a46531b62349504f0',
