Push notification not appearing in android status bar

[Mohamed_Refaat]

Hello,

I've been trying to make the push notification appear in the android status bar so i edit kii-push-config.xml to look like the following

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
	<!-- Push To App -->
	<string name="kii_push_app_showInNotificationArea">true</string>
	<string name="kii_push_app_useSound">false</string>
	<!-- eg.) #ff00ff00 -->
	<string name="kii_push_app_ledColor"></string>
	<string name="kii_push_app_vibrationMilliseconds">0</string>
	<!-- You can use literal string or JSONPath -->
	<string name="kii_push_app_notificationTitle">a</string>
	<string name="kii_push_app_notificationTicker">b</string>
	<string name="kii_push_app_notificationText">x</string>

	<!-- Push To User -->
	<string name="kii_push_user_showInNotificationArea">true</string>
	<string name="kii_push_user_useSound">false</string>
	<!-- eg.) #ff00ff00 -->
	<string name="kii_push_user_ledColor"></string>
	<string name="kii_push_user_vibrationMilliseconds">0</string>
	<!-- You can use literal string or JSONPath -->
	<string name="kii_push_user_notificationTitle">b</string>
	<string name="kii_push_user_notificationTicker">a</string>
	<string name="kii_push_user_notificationText">m</string>

	<!-- Direct Push -->
	<string name="kii_push_direct_showInNotificationArea">true</string>
	<string name="kii_push_direct_useSound">false</string>
	<!-- eg.) #ff00ff00 -->
	<string name="kii_push_direct_ledColor"></string>
	<string name="kii_push_direct_vibrationMilliseconds">0</string>
	<!-- You can use literal string or JSONPath -->
	<string name="kii_push_direct_notificationTitle">t</string>
	<string name="kii_push_direct_notificationTicker">a</string>
	<string name="kii_push_direct_notificationText">b</string>
</resources>

Yet the notifications still didn't appear and here's the logcat

I'm building for android using unity 5.3.4f1 and Kii cloud sdk 3.2.1

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Mohamed_Refaat,

I have confirmed that push-plugin works properly with Unity 5.3.4f1 and Kii cloud sdk 3.2.3
According to your logcat, the PushPlugin could not load the kii-push-config.xml properly.
Coud you check the generated apk file?

1. Downlod the apktool.
2. execute command apktool d your-apk-name.apk
3. your-apk-name directory will be created.
4. open your-apk-name/res/values/strings.xml
5. check the showInNotificationArea property in the strings.xml

Best regards,

Hi nfukuzaki,

After decompiling the apk i found other values than what i specified then i remembered that i included kii-push-config in an aar file long time ago and it was overriding it. after removing the aar, it now works perfectly.

I also wanted to ask if there's a way to exclude specific notifications from appearing?

Thanks & Regards.

Hi,

Push plugin does not support way to exclude specific notifications.
You can customize plugin by yourself if need.
