Subscribe to Topics... #79
Description
Hello,
It seems that subscribing to topics like explained here
https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/topic-messaging
is not implemented.
That would really be a nice enhancement... :-)

Thinking of contributing this functionality I just discovered that this plugin still uses gcm.jar and a API that is deprecated for more than 2 years.
I don't think that is even possible to use the new GCMPubSub classes and the topic feature with this old library.
Are there any plans to migrate to the new API as referenced here:
https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/gcm/GoogleCloudMessaging
?

@akreienbring with 1.4.0 release I've gotten rid of the gcm.jar. Paves the wave for subscribing to topics.
akreienbring commentedon Oct 28, 2015
Good to hear.. In the meantime i've contributed to another repo: gonzaloaune/GCMPushPlugin#6 (comment)
macdonst commentedon Oct 28, 2015
@akreienbring well 1.4.0 is now out and it no longer includes gcm.jar. We are up to date with the latest GCM libraries from Google. PR for topic functionality would be welcome.

@akreienbring is spot on. This functionality would be an awesome addition to this plugin... in many use cases PubSub style notifications are enough for the app, no need to send the regID. Any progress regarding this?
sunojvijayan commentedon Nov 23, 2015
Hi, Can anyone please let me know if this is possible or not in the current system and if there is anyway to subscribe to multiple topics. Please let me know. Thanks in advance.
macdonst commentedon Nov 23, 2015
@sunojvijayan currently not supported, eyeing support for 1.5.0 release.

Hi all,
Topic Messaging seems like an important enhancement. Is someone working on this, when is the next release expected?
In the meantime, I'll checkout @akreienbring 's repo.
jellomaster commentedon Nov 23, 2015
gcm support for ios and supporting topics for ios/android should be top of the list :)
macdonst commentedon Nov 23, 2015
Yup, this functionality is near the top of my to do list. I'm currently working on some exciting new functionality in order to make testing push much easier.
If @akreienbring wants to contribute to this repo I'd be happy as the initial limitations for not supporting topics has been taken care of.

@cvsakpal all of the Android work is done and it is in v1.5.x branch. Still need to figure out why I can't receive notifications in the issue79 branch. Topic registration on iOS works fine.

I don't know whether it is a problem with subscribing to topics or with the inability to send Notification to a topic, but I'm not able to receive them on my apple device.
If I send it with Device Id, then the same payload is working fine. Can someone please help!

@Gnaneshwar511 in my case adding the
messagefield (and a value) to the payload made the tricknaveedahmed1 commentedon Dec 11, 2016
As per the below link, in order to manage topic subscriptions on the server we need Instance ID:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/android/topic-messaging
So that we can manage topic subscription/unsubscripton on server by following instructions mentioned here:
https://developers.google.com/instance-id/reference/server#create_a_relation_mapping_for_an_app_instance
Does this plugin also provides access to Instance ID? so that it could be passed it to server on registration/subscription?
