Engineering Master Bug List: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=1201571&maxdepth=2&hide_resolved=1 | |||
Push Notification contains the following technologies: | |||
'''Web Notification API''' | |||
WebAPI landed in Fx22. Can be used without push and service workers, but will be a popular use case. | |||
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/notification | |||
'''Service Workers''' | |||
Service workers is the ability for your browser to run a script in the background enabling offline applications, background processing, and push notifications. | |||

Platform: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Service_Workers | |||
Spec: https://slightlyoff.github.io/ServiceWorker/spec/service_worker/index.html | |||
'''Push API''' | |||
Web DOM API that enables a website to subscribe a client, upon granting permission, to send events to the client. | |||

draft spec: https://w3c.github.io/push-api/ | |||
spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/push-api/ | |||
'''Push Server''' | |||
Mozilla hosted server that brokers the registration and sending of push events from web app servers to clients. Past terms for this include: SimplePush and WebPush which distinguished low level design and protocol support. For web developers, the server architecture may migrate when appropriate, but the WebAPI will remain the same. | |||
Draft Spec: https://webpush-wg.github.io/webpush-protocol/ | |||
Current Server info: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Services/SimplePushServer | |||
Current Server docs: http://autopush.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api.html | |||
'''Mobile''' | |||
Mobile is targeting Fx44 to for initial support. Android and iOS will leverage Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) and Apple Push Notification Services (APNS) respectively. Work is done by three teams: Android eng, Android platform, and Services Dev. We will be gathering a list of dependencies on landing this on Android. | |||

'''Testing''' | |||
Testing & QA owner is tbd. There's a fairly complex test plan here, considering the permissions dialogs, service workers, and API. | |||
