Re: [nodejs] Is anyone sending Apple push notifications (APNS) with node to iOS devices (iPhone/iPad)?

https://github.com/argon/node-apn is pretty easy to setup and its
working great for my project since last year Aug.

I think i've used all of the libraries in npm and one that isn't even open source yet and i've foudn argon's to be the most reliable.

We use the node-apn library. My only complaint is it breaks when you don't do things exactly right and doesn't alert you to the problem. It just silently quits. Other than that when it works it works well.

Hello mates!

Just trying to make a game similar in architecture to Draw Something using node for the backend.

Does anyone have experience sending push notifications using node?

It seems there is an open source library:

https://github.com/argon/node-apn

And the hard way:

Did anyone use that library? What do you think about it?

How do you send push notifications to Apple servers using node?

Any suggestion, feedback, idea is welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Yep, node-apn is working for me as well.  It's a bit of a bother to get the keys setup right, but I found this guide on the push ecosystem enlightening http://www.raywenderlich.com/3443/apple-push-notification-services-tutorial-part-12

I will use that library. 

Thanks again.
