I'm currently testing a bit my push notification module. When the Device Token is invalid, it disconnects...
According to Apple push notification developer documentation I should get an error-response packet just before the apple push server disconnect...
The thing is I get disconnected, but I do not get anything on the Socket just before that, and I need to know if the push failed because of a malformed push (so I can fix the bug), or an invalid device token (so I can remove it from the database).
Here's my code :
-module(pushiphone).
-behaviour(gen_server).
-export([start/1, init/1, handle_call/3, handle_cast/2, code_change/3, handle_info/2, terminate/2]).
-import(ssl, [connect/4]).
-record(push, {socket, state, cert, key}).
start(Provisioning) ->
gen_server:start_link(?MODULE, [Provisioning], []).
init([Provisioning]) ->
gen_server:cast(self(), {connect, Provisioning}),
{ok, #push{}}.
send(Socket, DT, Payload) ->
PayloadLen = length(Payload),
DTLen = size(DT),
PayloadBin = list_to_binary(Payload),
Packet = <<0:8,
DTLen:16/big,
DT/binary,
PayloadLen:16/big,
PayloadBin/binary>>,
ssl:send(Socket, Packet).
handle_call(_, _, P) ->
{noreply, P}.
handle_cast({connect, Provisioning}, P) ->
case Provisioning of
dev -> Address = "gateway.sandbox.push.apple.com";
prod -> Address = "gateway.push.apple.com"
end,
Port = 2195,
Cert="/apns-" ++ atom_to_list(Provisioning) ++ "-cert.pem",
Key="/apns-" ++ atom_to_list(Provisioning) ++ "-key.pem",
Options = [{certfile, Cert}, {keyfile, Key}, {password, "********"}, {mode, binary}, {active, true}],
Timeout = 1000,
{ok, Socket} = ssl:connect(Address, Port, Options, Timeout),
{noreply, P#push{socket=Socket}};
handle_cast(_, P) ->
{noreply, P}.
handle_info({ssl, Socket, Data}, P) ->
<<Command, Status, SomeID:32/big>> = Data,
io:fwrite("[PUSH][ERROR]: ~p / ~p / ~p~n", [Command, Status, SomeID]),
ssl:close(Socket),
{noreply, P};
handle_info({push, message, DT, Badge, [Message]}, P) ->
Payload = "{\"aps\":{\"alert\":\"" ++ Message ++ "\",\"badge\":" ++ Badge ++ ",\"sound\":\"" ++ "msg.caf" ++ "\"}}",
send(P#push.socket, DT, Payload),
{noreply, P};
handle_info({ssl_closed, _SslSocket}, P) ->
io:fwrite("SSL CLOSED !!!!!!~n"),
{stop, normal, P};
handle_info(AnythingElse, P) ->
io:fwrite("[ERROR][PUSH][ANYTHING ELSE] : ~p~n", [AnythingElse]),
{noreply, P}.
code_change(_, P, _) ->
{ok, P}.
terminate(_, _) ->
ok.
It works great when the payload and the deviceToken are both right. if deviceToken is invalid, it only get's disconnected.
Does anyone can spot the issue ? because after 4 hours of searching, I have only found out that I clearly can't !
Here's the error-response table :
Status code Description
0 No errors encountered
1 Processing error
2 Missing device token
3 Missing topic
4 Missing payload
5 Invalid token size
6 Invalid topic size
7 Invalid payload size
8 Invalid token
255 None (unknown)
You seem to be using the simple notification format as defined by figure 5-1 in the apple documentation you've linked to (judging by your
send()
function). When this format is used, no error response is provided when the request is malformed - you just get the disconnect.To get the error response you should be using the enhanced notification format detailed in figure 5-2.
