didReceiveRemoteNotification not called in foreground firebase cloud messaging for iOS - ios

Question

I tried to implement firebase cloud messaging on my app.
I register the notification using the following codes
if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
// For iOS 10 display notification (sent via APNS)
UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self
let authOptions: UNAuthorizationOptions = [.alert, .badge, .sound]
UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(
options: authOptions,
completionHandler: {_, _ in })
} else {
let settings: UIUserNotificationSettings =
UIUserNotificationSettings(types: [.alert, .badge, .sound], categories: nil)
application.registerUserNotificationSettings(settings)
}
Everything works fine when the app is in the back ground, but when the app is in the foreground, didReceiveRemoteNotification is not called at all.
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [AnyHashable : Any], fetchCompletionHandler completionHandler: #escaping (UIBackgroundFetchResult) -> Void) {
// Print message ID.
print("please help")
if let messageID = userInfo[gcmMessageIDKey] {
print("Message ID: \(messageID)")
}
// Print full message.
print(userInfo)
completionHandler(.newData)
}
Anyone knows possible error with this? Thanks!
EDIT: I do not need to see a notification display when the app is in foreground, I merely want to handle the message from the notification

Answer 1

iOS 10.x has a new function that handles push notification when in foreground, you should implement this one:
func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: #escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) {
completionHandler(
[UNNotificationPresentationOptions.alert,
UNNotificationPresentationOptions.sound,
UNNotificationPresentationOptions.badge])
}

Please implement below method to receive push notifications in foreground
For iOS10, Swift3:
func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: #escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void)
{
completionHandler([.alert, .badge, .sound])
}
For iOS10, Swift 2.3:
#available(iOS 10.0, *)
func userNotificationCenter(center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresentNotification notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void)
{
//Handle the notification
completionHandler(
[UNNotificationPresentationOptions.Alert,
UNNotificationPresentationOptions.Sound,
UNNotificationPresentationOptions.Badge])
}
Try this once:
func application(application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [NSObject : AnyObject], fetchCompletionHandler completionHandler: (UIBackgroundFetchResult) -> Void) {
print("Recived: \(userInfo)")
completionHandler(.NewData)
}

If you use Push Notification Firebase for IOS 10.
Please add this code. Hope to help you solve this problem :
#available(iOS 10, *)
extension AppDelegate : UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate {
// Receive displayed notifications for iOS 10 devices.
func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter,
willPresent notification: UNNotification,
withCompletionHandler completionHandler: #escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) {
let userInfo = notification.request.content.userInfo
// Print message ID.
if let messageID = userInfo[gcmMessageIDKey] {
print("Message ID: \(messageID)")
}
// Print full message.
print(userInfo)
completionHandler([])
}
func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter,
didReceive response: UNNotificationResponse,
withCompletionHandler completionHandler: #escaping () -> Void) {
let userInfo = response.notification.request.content.userInfo
// Print message ID.
if let messageID = userInfo[gcmMessageIDKey] {
print("Message ID: \(messageID)")
}
// Print full message.
print(userInfo)
completionHandler()
}
}
extension AppDelegate : FIRMessagingDelegate {
// Receive data message on iOS 10 devices while app is in the foreground.
func applicationReceivedRemoteMessage(_ remoteMessage: FIRMessagingRemoteMessage) {
print(remoteMessage.appData)
}
}
