Android Implementing chat via push notification using parse.com api
I am making a chat application. In the app, I have to chat with push notifications using parse andorid sdk. I was able to generate push notifications between different users. But unable to receive push and add my data as a list. Here is the code of the maifest file
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="19" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
<application
android:name="example.chat.ChatApplication"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="com.facebook.LoginActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
android:value="@string/app_id" />
<activity
android:name="example.chat.LoginActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name="example.chat.FriendslIst"
android:label="Friend list"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="example.chat.RegisterActivity"
android:label="@string/title_activity_register"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="example.chat.FriendListActivity"
android:label="@string/title_activity_friend_list"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="example.chat.ChatActivity"
android:label="@string/title_activity_chat"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
</activity>
<service android:name="com.parse.PushService" />
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParseBroadcastReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<receiver android:name="example.chat.MyCustomReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
<action android:name="example.chat.UPDATE_STATUS" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
and the code for my usual receiver
public class MyCustomReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private static final String TAG = "MyCustomReceiver";
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Toast.makeText(context, ""+intent, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
and from java code I am sending push like this:
ParseQuery<ParseInstallation> query = ParseInstallation.getQuery();
query.whereEqualTo("device_id", target);
ParsePush push = new ParsePush();
push.setQuery(query);
push.setMessage(message);
push.setExpirationTimeInterval(86400);
push.sendInBackground();
Please tell me where I am going wrong for fetching data using the receiver and what to do when I receive a push means any logic or idea to move on. thanks in advance

here is the most explicit file .....
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="your package name"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="15"
android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="your package name.YourActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<service android:name="com.parse.PushService" />
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParseBroadcastReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<receiver android:name="your package name.YourCustomReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
<action android:name="your package name.UPDATE_STATUS" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>
use this code to get push ...
public class MyCustomReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
String name, from, msg;
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
String message = extras != null ? extras.getString("com.parse.Data")
: "";
Log.e("message ", " " + message);
JSONObject jObject;
try {
if (message != null && !message.equals("")) {
jObject = new JSONObject(message);
from = jObject.getString("from");
msg = jObject.getString("title");
title = jObject.getString("msg");
GCMMessage gcmMessage = new GCMMessage();
gcmMessage.setMsg_body(msg);
gcmMessage.setMsg_title(title);
gcmMessage.setType(0);
gcmMessage.setDateTime(time);
DatabaseUtil.insertMessage(context, gcmMessage);
}
}
catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
and here is the code to send push ...
JSONObject obj;
try {
obj =new JSONObject();
obj.put("alert","oman expert ");
obj.put("action","Your Package name.UPDATE_STATUS");
data.put("from", ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getUsername());
obj.put("msg","hi");
obj.put("title","msg");
ParsePush push = new ParsePush();
ParseQuery query = ParseInstallation.getQuery();
push.setQuery(query);
push.setData(obj);
push.sendInBackground();
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
for any further request please let me know ....

In the above code example, you missed a few things,
Check your AndroidManifest.xml file and add c2dm permissions,
android permission: name = "your package .permission.C2D_MESSAGE" android: protectionLevel = "signature"
use-permission android: name = "com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE"
uses-permission android: name = "your package .permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
When submitting data, set an action in your data,
JSONObject data = new JSONObject();
try {
data.put("action", "your package.GOT_MESSAGE");
data.put("ya", ya);
data.put("from", ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getUsername());
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
ParsePush parsePush = new ParsePush();
parsePush.setData(data);
