How to process push notification when app is destroyed?

Question

Now I am processing push notification using FCM. It works well when app is in foreground.

I'd like to process the notification even when the app is on background or is destroyed.

I googled about it for a few days, but couldn't find the solution yet. Thanks in advance.

So, if you use firebase, you should send data notification (json contained data section, not notification) according to this:

https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/android/receive

Then override FirebaseMessagingService with onMessageReceived, and there you will receive push message. You have to also register this service in AndroidManifest.xml:

   <service android:name=".service.FirebaseMessageService">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </service>

Yes, I did it already in AndroidMagnifiest.xml. Now I am getting the push when app is running. – saltTiger K Dec 13 '16 at 15:58
And do you get notification in status bar when app is in background? Could you post an example json which app is receiving? – Tomasz Czura Dec 13 '16 at 15:59
just using console.firebase.com – saltTiger K Dec 13 '16 at 16:06
When you are using firebase console, your app is getting push of type "notification" - so when app is in background, service is not getting push. You have to send message manually e.g. via Postman – Tomasz Czura Dec 13 '16 at 16:07
so there is no solution while I am using firebase console ? – saltTiger K Dec 13 '16 at 16:10
Unfortunately no. – Tomasz Czura Dec 13 '16 at 16:13
