No data received with Capacitor Plugin PushNotifications

[TayKara]

Hello @moberwasserlechner ,

I have a bug with PushNotifications on Android, when I receive a notification, the app detect it and go inside of the listener, but it's empty (data field is empty). The problem appears when capacitor-filesharer is installed (just installed with npm, not used). If I remove "@byteowls/capacitor-filesharer": "^1.0.0-beta.1" from package.json, it fixes the bug.

Boah, it is difficult to say whats the issue. Could plz answer these question to I get a better idea whats going on.

• Just to be clear, you did not add the Android part of the plugin to com.companyname.appname.MainActivity#onCreate
• Do you have any logs?

Many thanks for your quick answer :)

First, I have to notice you that I'm not an English speaker, so forgive me for my poor grammar. ^^'

About my problem :

• Initially, I've added the file-sharer plugin in the onCreate method, and used it. It worked fine for what it supposed to do. Unfortunately I noticed after one or two weeks that there was a bug with the received notification listener of Capacitor Push Notifications plugin. Nothing said that the problem came from file-sharer plugin, so it was really difficult to determinate what provoked the bug.

• Unfortunately for both of us, there was not any logs, it's the reason why it was so difficult to find the bug's source.

I created a sample project for you : sample-file-sharer What I did in this project was :

• ionic start sample-file-sharer blank --capacitor
• npx cap init (with package com.filesharer.sample)
• add PushNotification functionnality in home.page.ts
• add npm @byteowls/capacitor-filesharer
• build/add android
• npx cap sync
• add app com.filesharer.sample in firebase console and download google-service.json
• add google-service.json in android/app

after these manipulations, I tested push notifications (with firebase console/cloud-messaging), and here are the results : with file-sharer : without file-sharer :

to test with/without, just remove the line "@byteowls/capacitor-filesharer": "^1.0.0-beta.1" in package.json, and then ionic build/npx cap sync

I removed google-service.json file from android directory (there is some confidential data in it), so you have to create a project/add an app in firebase console to try it. Make sure to add your app with the package name "com.filesharer.sample".

I tested v1.0.1 with Push Notifications from Capacitor 2.0.0-beta.1 and v.2.0.0 (not released yet) with Capacitor 2.0.0 and had no issues.

But it's a year later and thing have improved on both sides. Maybe #17 was one of the reason for this issue.
