add env variables to the push adapter?

[Cliffordwh]

Hi Guys

Is is possible to add ENV variables to the push adapter? (Like we have just done for the S3 adapter in version 2.1.5)

or is this already available? PARSE_SERVER_PUSH?

Trying to set it in a json config with little success. Im not using the parse-server-example so i don't make use of a index.js initializer.

Making use of the oneSignalPushAdapter.

you can configure with a PARSE_SERVER_PUSH or --push
we expect the contents to be a string that can be parsed as a JSON.

in the JSON:

{
module: full/path/to/OSPushAdapter,
options: {
// one signal options
}
}

then JSON.stringify(pushOptions)
PARSE_SERVER_PUSH=""

@flovilmart Thanks , so if understand correctly in my ecosystem.json file I can set this full string in the PARSE_SERVER_PUSH="" ?

[flovilmart]

That should work :) Let me know. BE careful with the path to the pushAdapter, this is tricky.

The adapterLoader is in Adapter, so it should work passing: '{"module": "./Push/OneSignalPushAdapter", "options": {}}'

./ being the relative path to the current file which is the adapterLoader

npm start -- --appId app --masterKey master --push '{"adapter": "./Push/OneSignalPushAdapter"}'

> parse-server@2.1.6 start /Users/florent/src/Parse/parse-server
> node ./bin/parse-server "--appId" "app" "--masterKey" "master" "--push" "{\"adapter\": \"./Push/OneSignalPushAdapter\"}"

how do you write it in PUSH_SERVER_PUSH, I amalso not using index.js and I need to use this env var in my ecosystem but the parse is ignoring it so when I am trying to send Push it tells me It cannot find a sender...

[flovilmart]

PARSE_SERVER_PUSH is an environment variable, just set it to the stringified JSON

[KudosGuy]

I did this and it doesnt work "PARSE_SERVER_PUSH": "'ios': [ { 'pfx': '/home/parse/dev_cert.p12', 'bundleId': 'SomeID', 'production': false },{ 'pfx': '/home/parse/production_cert.p12', 'bundleId': 'SomeID', 'production': true }]"

[flovilmart]

The value you just set is not a valid JSON, PARSE_SERVER_PUSH='{"ios": [] }'

[KudosGuy]

it doesnt work too, parse is ignoring the PARSE_SERVER_PUSH
{
"apps" : [{
"name" : "parse-wrapper",
"script" : "/usr/bin/parse-server",
"watch" : true,
"merge_logs" : true,
"cwd" : "/home/parse",
"env": {
"PARSE_SERVER_CLOUD_CODE_MAIN": "/home/parse/cloud/main.js",
"PARSE_SERVER_DATABASE_URI": "mongodb:...",
"PARSE_SERVER_APPLICATION_ID": "id",
"PARSE_SERVER_MASTER_KEY": "master",
PARSE_SERVER_PUSH="{'ios': [ { 'pfx': '/home/parse/dev_cert.p12', 'bundleId': 'someID', 'production': false },{ 'pfx': '/home/parse/production_cert.p12', 'bundleId': 'someID', 'production': true }] }"
}
}]
}

[flovilmart]

Your configuration is malformed!

{
"apps" : [{
"name" : "parse-wrapper",
"script" : "/usr/bin/parse-server",
"watch" : true,
"merge_logs" : true,
"cwd" : "/home/parse",
"env": {
"PARSE_SERVER_CLOUD_CODE_MAIN": "/home/parse/cloud/main.js",
"PARSE_SERVER_DATABASE_URI": "mongodb:...",
"PARSE_SERVER_APPLICATION_ID": "id",
"PARSE_SERVER_MASTER_KEY": "master",
"PARSE_SERVER_PUSH": "{'ios': [ { 'pfx': '/home/parse/dev_cert.p12', 'bundleId': 'someID', 'production': false },{ 'pfx': '/home/parse/production_cert.p12', 'bundleId': 'someID', 'production': true }] }"
}
}]
}

it doesnt work for me.... it keeps telling me in log that it cant find sender for push type..... I tried that on parse 2.1.4 and now on 2.1.6...

[flovilmart]

Try to do it in a development environment, without pm2, I'm not familiar with pm2. but I can tell you that it works when properly setting environment variables. and running directly from command line

[Cliffordwh]

@KudosGuy did you have any luck with this? Trying both OneSignal and the default with little success.

[KudosGuy]

no, I tried like 10 times to start the server with parse-server jsonconfig.json or npm start parse-server and many more and nothing worked, I would report it as a bug and maybe we can get more attention to this, but if you will install parse-server-example you will have the index.js and it is working there, but i really dont know why they are these two versions...

[Cliffordwh]

I can confirm PARSE_SERVER_PUSH certainly does work. I got it to select the adapter ( OneSignal ) but struggling to pass the variables through. But i'm giving it a bash now.
