Spezi Firebase Remote Notifications

A standalone package for handling Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) remote notifications in Spezi applications. This package provides a complete solution for managing device registration, sending multi-language notifications, and handling message delivery across different platforms.

This package is part of the Spezi Firebase project and depends on the spezi-firebase-utils package for core utilities.

Features

• Device registration and token management
• Multi-language notification support
• Platform-specific message formatting (iOS, Android, Web)
• Support for rich notification content
• Token invalidation handling
• Firestore integration for device storage

Installation

npm install @stanfordspezi/spezi-firebase-cloud-messaging

Quick Start

import { initializeApp, cert } from 'firebase-admin/app'
import { getMessaging } from 'firebase-admin/messaging'
import { getFirestore } from 'firebase-admin/firestore'
import {
  FirebaseNotificationService,
  FirestoreDeviceStorage,
  Message,
  DevicePlatform,
  Device,
  LocalizedText,
} from '@stanfordspezi/spezi-firebase-cloud-messaging'

// Initialize Firebase
const app = initializeApp()
const messaging = getMessaging(app)
const firestore = getFirestore(app)

// Initialize device storage
const deviceStorage = new FirestoreDeviceStorage(firestore)

// Initialize notification service
const notificationService = new FirebaseNotificationService(
  messaging,
  deviceStorage,
)

// Register a device
await notificationService.registerDevice(
  'user123',
  new Device({
    notificationToken: 'fcm-token-123',
    platform: DevicePlatform.iOS,
    language: 'en',
    appVersion: '1.0.0',
  }),
)

// Send a notification
await notificationService.sendNotification('user123', {
  title: { en: 'Hello', de: 'Hallo' },
  body: {
    en: 'This is a test notification',
    de: 'Dies ist eine Test-Benachrichtigung',
  },
  data: { action: 'open_home' },
})

// Create and send a message notification
const message = Message.createInformation({
  title: { en: 'Information', de: 'Information' },
  description: {
    en: 'This is important information',
    de: 'Dies ist eine wichtige Information',
  },
  action: 'view_details',
  isDismissible: true,
  data: { itemId: '123' },
})

// Send a message-based notification
await notificationService.sendMessageNotification('user123', {
  id: 'message-123',
  path: '/messages/message-123',
  lastUpdate: new Date(),
  content: message,
})

// Unregister a device
await notificationService.unregisterDevice(
  'user123',
  'fcm-token-123',
  DevicePlatform.iOS,
)

Firebase Functions Integration

This package includes helpers for creating Firebase Functions:

import { onCall } from 'firebase-functions/v2/https'
import {
  createRegisterDeviceHandler,
  createUnregisterDeviceHandler,
  registerDeviceInputSchema,
  unregisterDeviceInputSchema,
} from '@stanfordspezi/spezi-firebase-cloud-messaging'

// Create function handlers
const registerDeviceHandler = createRegisterDeviceHandler(notificationService)
const unregisterDeviceHandler =
  createUnregisterDeviceHandler(notificationService)

// Create Firebase Functions
export const registerDevice = onCall(
  {
    schema: registerDeviceInputSchema,
  },
  async (request) => {
    const userId = request.auth?.uid
    if (!userId) throw new Error('Unauthorized')

    return registerDeviceHandler(userId, request.data)
  },
)

export const unregisterDevice = onCall(
  {
    schema: unregisterDeviceInputSchema,
  },
  async (request) => {
    const userId = request.auth?.uid
    if (!userId) throw new Error('Unauthorized')

    return unregisterDeviceHandler(userId, request.data)
  },
)
