Usage

Handle user subscriptions to OneSignal in your frontend code.

Overview

import 'onsignal/dist/OneSignalSDK';
import OnSignal from 'onsignal';

document.addEventListener( 'ready', () => {
    const onSignal = new OnSignal( 'OneSignal App ID', {
        autoRegister: false
    });

    // Object to call OneSignal API from
    onSignal.oneSignal;

    // Current users player ID
    onSignal.playerId;

    // Current users permission
    onSignal.permission;
};

Options

Pass options to OneSignal's push(['init', {...}]) function as a hash. Default values are:

• autoRegister Automatically try to subscribe the user when loading a page. Accepts a boolean. Defaults to false.
• persistNotification If set to false, automatically dismisses notifications after ~20 seconds in Chrome Desktop v47+. Accepts a boolean. Defaults to false.
• welcomeNotification Hash configuring the default OneSignal welcome notification. Accepts a hash. Defaults to { disable: true }.
• notifyButton Hash configuring the default OneSignal notify button at the bottom right of the screen. Accepts a hash. Defaults to { enable: false }.

Subscribing

Just call onSignal.subscribe(); and OneSignal will ask your user for permission to send notifications if he is not subscribed yet. On the following request an existing Device object will either get updated or a new one will get created. (if using the Rails API)

Options

Pass options to OneSignal's registerForPushNotifications() function as a hash. Default values are:

• modalPrompt Whether or not to use a custom prompt instead of the browsers default to ask for permission. Accepts a boolean. Defaults to false.

Unsubscribing

Note: You most likely don't want to let your users unsubscribe from receiving notifications, but instead allow them to manually disable receiving any new notifications. For that purpose use the notifications-rails gem, which adds a notification API and detailed user settings.

If you want to completely remove a user from OneSignal, call onSignal.unsubscribe();.

Additional functions

// Check if a user is subscribed to OneSignal
onSignal.isSubscribed()
