GPNS provides scalable and efficient a mass push notificaiton service built on top of Amazon's Simple Notification Service. The project provides REST end points for registering Device IDs with arbitrary metadata. These can then be used to send a push notification to all or a segment of the user base based on the metadata. This project is written in the Go Programming language and is designed to be resource efficient. In addition it uses Amazon Simple Queue Service in order to distribute work load out to multiple instances if you have them available.

gpns's Issues

Implement and test message sending for iOS

Currently the message sending has only been tested with GCM

Implement better defaults for config file path command line parameters

Right now they use "./", make them use a path relative to binary or project home rather than current directory.

Implement rest services for Register and Publish message

Better Error checking for locale when registering device

Implement file parsers to send messages from local files instead of rest

Implement and test message sending for Kindle

Allow multiple ARNs per Alias in device record
