  • Fixed ChannelCapture tool sometimes throwing an exception.
  • Attempt automatic take off when receiving a new push or token from FCM.

  • Fixed JsonMatcher scope parsing.

Version 9.4.0 - July 19, 2018

Minor release that adds new NotificationFactory APIs to better handle limited background time when building notifications. This release also addresses ANRs from the GCM and ADM Broadcast Receiver that occur when notification building takes longer than 10 seconds when using a custom notification factory. To avoid the ANR, the braodcast will wait a max of 10 seconds before finishing received broadcast instead of waiting for the notification to finish. This will prevent the ANR from occurring, but the OS might kill the app before it has time to display the notification and it will be lost. To avoid this issue, either use NotificationFactory#createNotificationResult(PushMessage, int, boolean) to retry later if the notification is taking too long, or use NotificationFactory#requiresLongRunningTask(PushMessage) if the notification requires more than 10 seconds.

Changes

  • Deprecated NotificationFactory#createNotificationResult(PushMessage, int) in favor of NotificationFactory#createNotificationResult(PushMessage, int, boolean) that also tells the factory if it has longer than 10 seconds to build the notification.
  • Added listener to the Whitelist class to reject URLs.
  • Added method to generate AirshipConfigOptions from a Properties instance.
  • Fixed ANRs caused by slow notification builds in custom factories when using GCM or ADM modules.

Changes

  • Fixed marking current schedules with an end time as expired.

Version 9.3.1 - June 15, 2018

  • When using urbanairship-fcm, setting the FCM sender ID in the airship config options is now optional.
  • Moved push providers into own packages - urbanairship-fcm, urbanairship-gcm, urbanairship-adm, and urbanairship-core. The package urbanairship-sdk still exists and is now just a wrapper package that depends on gcm, adm, and core to prevent breaking apps.
  • Deprecated urbanairship-sdk and urbanairship-gcm packages. They will be dropped in SDK release 10.0.
  • Updated in-app message designs.

Applications that want to use 26.1.0 can continue to do so by defining 26.1.0 in the app's build.gradle file. The SDK is still fully compatible with 26.1.0.

Changes

  • Change support library version to 26.0.2.

Version 8.9.3 - October 17, 2017

  • Updated Google Play Services to 11.4 and Support Library to 26.1.0

New Features

  • Added a fallback job scheduler using the Android Jobs API for Lollipop+ devices when the GcmNetworkManager is unavailable. By default, Urban Airship will schedule jobs with Ids between 3000000 - 3000099. The start ID can be changed from 3000000 by adding metadata to the AndroidManifest.xml with a new start ID under the key com.urbanairship.job.JOB_ID_START. The new scheduler can also be prioritized over the GcmNetworkManger scheduler by adding metadata com.urbanairship.job.PREFER_ANDROID_JOB_SCHEDULER with the value true.

  • Added a default notification channel. Currently the default channel's name and description is only available in english. Other localizations will be provided in an SDK update.

Behavior Changes

  • Android O devices will only have 10 seconds to process a push notification. Custom notification factories that require more time can implement public boolean requiresLongRunningTask(PushMessage message) to have the SDK schedule a job to process the notification when the application has more than 10 seconds.
  • Listening for location updates no longer keeps the LocationService alive in the background and is only supported on the main process.
  • Push messages that are associated with a message center message will no longer wait for the inbox to be refreshed. Custom message center implementations should be updated to handle the message not being available when the user tries to deep link to the message.
  • Fetching images for a big picture notification style will timeout after 10 seconds. If the image times out, the notification will be posted without the big picture style.

Bug Fixes

  • Added proguard rules to prevent default Urban Airship actions from being stripped out.

  • Simplified push integration. The push intent receiver is now optional and the library supports automatically launching the application if the push intent receiver is not set or does not handle the open notification broadcasts.
  • A new default notification factory that uses the Big Text notification style.
  • User notifications can be disabled without disabling push. This allows the application to still be messaged when notifications are disabled.
  • The push broadcasts for push received, push opened, and registration events have been updated. A base broadcast receiver 'BaseIntentReceiver' can be extended to parse the intents and provide convenient listener style callbacks.
  • It is no longer necessary to check for Urban Airship Actions when deciding to launch the application in the push intent receiver.
