knok-knok: Pushing Notifications Now Becomes Simple!

What is it?

knok-knok is an easy-to-use python package for sending push notifications across andriod and ios devices.

Tired of looking around for solutions to send your notifications?

No more worries now, knok-knok does all the heavy lifting of research and bug-fixes for you. Let's get started.

Our Features include

  • sending push notifications for the fcm tokens provided. Be it a token for an android device or an ios device, it doesn't matter.
  • sending notifications to any number of devices at a time
  • multiple notifications on a single device getting collapsed on the notification bar.
  • sending notifications that redirects the user somewhere
  • GCM has been deprecated so if you are someone who is migrating from GCM to FCM, you can also give us a try.

Getting Started

The source code is currently hosted on GitHub at: https://github.com/ajaysharma132/knok-knok

Binary installers for the latest released version are available at the Python Package Index (PyPI).

# PyPI
pip install knok-knok

for sending a push notification, all you need to do is -

  • build a data_map containing the information for your notification message
  • provide a list of fcm tokens for the devices you want to trigger a push notification
# data_map
{
    "title": "Hello",
    "body": "World !",
    "url": "https://www.google.com/"
}  

title - represents the title of the your notification
body - represents the body/text/message of your notification
url - is for the link you want the user to redirect to..

# tokens
[
    'token1', 
    'token2',
    'token3',
]
And so on... You can provide any number of tokens

Now, instantiate the FCMClient providing your FCM_API_KEY as -

# FCMClient instance
from knok_knok import FCMClient
client = FCMClient(FCM_API_KEY)

And use the send function to send your notifications as -

# send notification
client.send(data_map, tokens)

you see, it's that simple!!
