Get device token for push notification

发布于 2020-04-13 10:06:02

I am working on push notifications. I wrote the following code for fetching a device token.

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {    
    // Override point for customization after application launch.

    // Add the view controller's view to the window and display.
    [self.window addSubview:viewController.view];
    [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

    NSLog(@"Registering for push notifications...");    
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
     (UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)];

    return YES;
}

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)deviceToken { 
    NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Device Token=%@",deviceToken];
    NSLog(@"This is device token%@", deviceToken);
}

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError *)err { 
    NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"Error: %@", err];
    NSLog(@"Error %@",err);    
}

I am able to run application on device successfully but not able to get the device id on console.

I have no issues with certification and provisioning profiles.

NOTE: The below solution no longer works on iOS 13+ devices - it will return garbage data.

Please use following code instead:

+ (NSString *)hexadecimalStringFromData:(NSData *)data
{
  NSUInteger dataLength = data.length;
  if (dataLength == 0) {
    return nil;
  }

  const unsigned char *dataBuffer = (const unsigned char *)data.bytes;
  NSMutableString *hexString  = [NSMutableString stringWithCapacity:(dataLength * 2)];
  for (int i = 0; i < dataLength; ++i) {
    [hexString appendFormat:@"%02x", dataBuffer[i]];
  }
  return [hexString copy];
}

Solution that worked prior to iOS 13:

Objective-C

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)deviceToken 
{
    NSString *token = [[deviceToken description] stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet: [NSCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@"<>"]];
    token = [token stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@" " withString:@""];
    NSLog(@"this will return '32 bytes' in iOS 13+ rather than the token", token);
} 

Swift 3.0

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data)
{
    let tokenString = deviceToken.reduce("", {$0 + String(format: "%02X", $1)})
    print("this will return '32 bytes' in iOS 13+ rather than the token \(tokenString)")
}
