receive notifiction callback when an app is killed

DaveLomber commented 2 years ago

This is to address https://github.com/wix/react-native-notifications/issues/865

Now an Android user can receive a push notification callback when an app is in dead/killed state and this is a 'data' notification

The following is required at application side:

1) to add <service android:name="com.wix.reactnativenotifications.JSNotifyWhenKilledTask" /> into AndroidManifest.xmlfile

2) and now you can process the notifications in killed/dead state via the following code snippet:

    const { AppRegistry } = require("react-native");

    // https://reactnative.dev/docs/headless-js-android
    //
    AppRegistry.registerHeadlessTask(
      "JSNotifyWhenKilledTask",
      () => {
        return async (notificationBundle) => {
          console.log('[JSNotifyWhenKilledTask] notificationBundle', notificationBundle);

        }
      },
    );

@DanielEliraz Any chances this is being addressed? I really need this scenario for an app I'm building right now.

I noticed that mIsStarted was never set in this PR, but it seems to be working otherwise and fixes an important problem.

Do we know why it was never merged?
