Can I send browser notifications from server to subscribed users using PHP? I saw this tutorial today, but that work only from client side. I know there are services like pushcrew, but I want to develop my own using PHP and JavaScript.

My actual requirement is asking users to confirm if I can send them notifications using this code,

if (Notification.permission !== "granted")
{
   Notification.requestPermission();
}

then show notifications when I publish new article in my website.

NB: Browser support doesn't matter.

  • If you can get it to work, you could try this library: github./web-push-libs/web-push-php. I can't get it to work though, the PHP code inside the library is throwing errors even if I just use the example code on their website. – Donald Duck is with Ukraine Commented Dec 28, 2019 at 17:43

You have to trigger these notifications on the client side, so you need to get them from the PHP server to your JavaScript:

  • do an ajax polling every x seconds, for example with the jQuery ajax functions, and show a message if the server returned one
  • push the message over WebSockets, for example with Ratchet

Web Push allows you to push notification even if the user didn’t have the site open and is supported by the recent Firefox 44. It is partially supported in Chrome. For details check out the Mozilla Hacks blog.

Example with polling

JavaScript jQuery part:

function doPoll() {
    // Get the JSON
    $.ajax({ url: 'test.json', success: function(data){
        if(data.notify) {
            // Yeah, there is a new notification! Show it to the user
            var notification = new Notification(data.title, {
                 icon:'https://lh3.googleusercontent./-aCFiK4baXX4/VjmGJojsQ_I/AAAAAAAANJg/h-sLVX1M5zA/s48-Ic42/eggsmall.png',
                 body: data.desc,
             });
             notification.onclick = function () {
                 window.open(data.url);      
             };
        }
        // Retry after a second
        setTimeout(doPoll,1000);
    }, dataType: "json"});
}
if (Notification.permission !== "granted")
{
    // Request permission to send browser notifications
    Notification.requestPermission().then(function(result) {
        if (result === 'default') {
            // Permission granted
            doPoll();
        }
    });
} else {
    doPoll();
}

JSON server answer in "test.json" if there is a message:

{
    "notify": true,
    "title": "Hey there!",
    "desc": "This is a new message for you",
    "url": "http://stackoverflow."
}

JSON server answer in "test.json" to not show a message:

{
    "notify": false
}
