Marketing Cloud Cordova Plugin Push Notification Issue - iOS and Android

Question

I've implemented MC Cordova Plugin (https://github.com/salesforce-marketingcloud/MC-Cordova-Plugin) for push notification through Marketing Cloud for hybrid mobile app, but encountering problems.

On Android platform, Any functions I called from the app didn't have callback return; in iOS platform I get the callback return for isPushEnabled function, but for enablePush it is not having the callback return, and I can't get the system token when I called MCCordovaPlugin.getSystemToken .

Previously similar question here : salesforce-marketingcloud android push no

I've used Java 1.8, Cordova 7.0.0, Android Cordova v.6.3.0 but there's still not callback return (and also no error).

MC Cordova Plugin version : 1.0.2

Snippet Code :

var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
var logToConsole = cordova.require("com.salesforce.util.logger").logToConsole;
$j('#link_fetch_device_contacts').click(function() {
                                       logToConsole("link_fetch_device_contacts clicked");
                                       var options      = new ContactFindOptions();
                                       options.filter   = ""; // empty search string returns all contacts
                                       options.multiple = true;
                                       options.hasPhoneNumber = true;
                                       var fields       = [navigator.contacts.fieldType.displayName, navigator.contacts.fieldType.name];
                                       navigator.contacts.find(fields, onSuccessDevice, onErrorDevice, options);

                                        console.log("MCCordovaPlug :");
                                        console.log(MCCordovaPlugin);

                                        document.addEventListener("deviceready",function(){
                                            console.log("deviceready");
                                            MCCordovaPlugin.isPushEnabled(function(success){
                                                console.log("is Push Enabled Success");
                                                console.log(success);
                                                }, function(error){
                                                console.log("is Push Enabled Error");
                                                console.log(error);
                                            });
                                        }, false);

                                       });

Log:

03-01 12:10:10.949 2174-2174/com.sfapp.contactexplorer I/chromium: [INFO:CONSOLE(38)] "jslog: link_fetch_device_contacts clicked", source: file:///android_asset/www/plugins/com.salesforce/www/com.salesforce.util.logger.js (38)

Edited : I have try to put Log.v in MCCordovaPlugin.java , but seems it stucked in this function :

private boolean handleIsPushEnabled(final CallbackContext callbackContext) {
        Log.v("handleIsPushEnabled",callbackContext.toString());
        try {
            Log.v("tryHandleIsPushEnabled",callbackContext.toString());
            MarketingCloudSdk.requestSdk(new MarketingCloudSdk.WhenReadyListener() {
                @Override
                public void ready(MarketingCloudSdk marketingCloudSdk) {
                    Log.v("handleIsPushEnabledSuccess",callbackContext.getCallbackId());
                    callbackContext.sendPluginResult(new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.OK, marketingCloudSdk.getPushMessageManager().isPushEnabled()));
                }
            });
        } catch (Exception e) {
            Log.v("handleIsPushEnabledError",e);
            return caughtException(callbackContext, e);
        }
        return true;
    }

There is no "handleIsPushEnabledSuccess" or "handleIsPushEnabledError" printed on logcat; directly return true.

EDITED : On Android it already works (Thanks guys for answering my question!) Now the next question is : How can I retrieve the contact key that is automatically generated from MC when we call enablePush ?

Please help about this issue.. Thanks!

Best Regards

Answer 1

As you linked my thread I will give you few things I've learned from my issues with Android.

1)Make sure you have import {package}.R; in MCCordovaPluginApplication.java file. (otherwise it wont compile)

2) Make sure android hook fired after you execute cordova prepare . Look inside your AndroidManifest file and see if you have entry

android:name="com.salesforce.marketingcloud.cordovaplugin.MCCordovaPlugingApplication.java"

if above entry is missing then hook didn't fire and u need to either fix plugin or add it manually ....

it should look something like following .<application android:hardwareAccelerated="true" android:icon="@mipmap/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:supportsRtl="true" android:name="com.salesforce.marketingcloud.cordovaplugin.MCCordovaPluginApplication">

There are a couple things to consider here: 1. You might need to make sure you add in the android:name="com.salesforce.marketingcloud.cordovaplugin.MCCordovaPluginApplication" into the manifest file.

If you are having issues doing this since hooks seem to be broken at this point, you can add via shell overwriting your manifest file. Just be careful about any application-specific values that you may already have in there in your version. Here is a shell script something like this in order to help you. Or just manually edit the values yourself.

cp -a ./platforms/ ./platformsBck rm -R ./platforms/ cordova plugin add ../MarketingCloudSdk-Cordova-Plugin —variable APPID={YOUR_APP_ID} —variable ACCESSTOKEN={YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN} —variable GCMSENDERID={YOUR_GCM_SENDER_ID} —variable MCANALYTICS={enabled|disable} —variable CHANNELNAME={YOUR_CHANNEL_NAME} —nosave —nofetch cordova prepare cp -a ./platformsBck/android/ ./platforms/android/ rm -R ./platformsBck/

2. But, in your case it seems like you already are setting the android:name value in your manifest to something else. It also seems you can only set this value once. If you already have this set from some other Application plugin path, then you can take our content from our public void onCreate() {} in our plugin MCCordovaPluginApplication.java and add it to your existing one in your Application class.

I hope this helps.
