React hook Push Notifications

Overview

This package provides a custom React hook for facilitating push subscriptions in your application. It ensures proper handling of browser APIs and returns easy-to-handle errors in case of issues.

Installation

npm install react-pwa-push-notifications

or

yarn add react-pwa-push-notifications

Usage

First, import the hook:

import { useSubscribe, Errors } from 'react-pwa-push-notifications';

Then, initialize it with your public VAPID key:

const { getSubscription } = useSubscribe({ publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY_HERE' });

Use getSubscription to initiate the push subscription:

const subscribeUser = async () => {
  try {
    const subscription = await getSubscription();
    // Handle the new subscription object
  } catch (error) {
    if (error.errorCode === Errors.ServiceWorkerAndPushManagerNotSupported) {
      // Handle service worker or push manager not being supported
    } else if (error.errorCode === Errors.PushManagerUnavailable) {
      // Handle PushManager unavailable
    } else if (error.errorCode === Errors.ExistingSubscription) {
      // Handle existing subscription
    } else {
      // Handle other errors
    }
  }
};

Error Handling

The hook provides an Errors enum for better error management. It includes the following error codes:

• ServiceWorkerAndPushManagerNotSupported: The service worker or push manager is not supported by the browser.
• PushManagerUnavailable: The PushManager is unavailable.
• ExistingSubscription: An existing subscription is already present.
• Unknown: An unknown error has occurred.
