The sources for JWT APNs Client can be downloaded from the Github repo.

You can either clone the public repository:

$ git clone git://github.com/mobelux/jwt_apns_client

Or download the tarball:

$ curl  -OL https://github.com/mobelux/jwt_apns_client/tarball/master

Usage¶

To use JWT APNs Client in a project:

from jwt_apns_client.jwt_apns_client import APNSConnection, APNSEnvironments
client = APNSConnection(
    topic='com.example.application',
    team_id='apns_team_id',
    apns_key_id='apns_key_id',
    apns_key_path='/path/to/apns/key.pem',
    environment=APNSEnvironments.DEV)

response = client.send_notification(
    device_registration_id='registration_id',
    alert='Example APNS Message',
    badge=1
)

To create a dummy certificate suitable for use in test cases or which does not interract with the APNs servers:

1. generate elliptic curve key:
    openssl ecparam -name secp256k1 -genkey -noout -out secp256k1-key.pem
2. convert to unencrypted pkcs#8 pem
    openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -in secp256k1-key.pem -out key.p8 -nocrypt

Get Started!¶

Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up jwt_apns_client for local development.

Fork the jwt_apns_client repo on GitHub.

Clone your fork locally:

$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/jwt_apns_client.git

Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:
```
$ mkvirtualenv jwt_apns_client
$ cd jwt_apns_client/
$ python setup.py develop
```
Create a branch for local development:
```
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
```
Now you can make your changes locally.
When you’re done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:
```
$ flake8 jwt_apns_client tests
$ python setup.py test or py.test
$ tox
```
To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
$ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines¶

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

The pull request should include tests.
If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
The pull request should work for Python 2.7, 3.4 and 3.5. Check https://travis-ci.org/mobelux/jwt_apns_client/pull_requests and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.

Tips¶

To run a subset of tests:

$ python -m unittest tests.test_jwt_apns_client
