当我们开发需要和服务器交互的应用程序时,基本上都需要获取服务器端的数据,比如《地震及时通》就需要及时获取服务器上最新的地震信息。要获取服务器上不定时更新的信息一般来说有两种方法,第一种是客户端使用Pull(拉)的方式,隔一段时间就去服务器上获取信息,看是否有更新的信息出现。第二种就是服务器使用Push(推送)的方式,当服务器端有新信息了,则把最新的信息Push到客户端上。
虽然Pull和Push两种方式都能实现获取服务器端更新信息的功能,但是明显来说Push is better than pull。因为Pull方式更费客户端的网络流量,更主要的是费电量。
Android从2.2版本开始增加了Cloud to Device Messaging(C2DM)框架,在系统中支持了Push功能,基于Android平台使用Push功能更加简单了。虽然C2DM目前还处在实验室阶段,不过小规模的使用应该没问题
下面我们就来体验一下Android的C2DM功能。
使用Android的C2DM功能有几个要求:
1. 需要Android2.2及以上的系统版本。
2. 使用C2DM功能的Android设备上需要设置好Google的账户。
3. 需要在这里注册使用C2DM功能的用户邮箱账号(最好为C2DM单独注册一个Gmail邮箱账号)。
我们接下来C2DM的一个完整过程,这里借用一下Google官方推出的Chrome To Phone过程图来说明下。
图1 C2DM操作过程图
要使用C2DM来进行Push操作,基本上要使用以下6个步骤:
(1)注册:Android设备把使用C2DM功能的用户账户(比如[email protected])和App名称发送给C2DM服务器。
(2)C2DM服务器会返回一个registration_id值给Android设备,设备需要保存这个registration_id值。
(3)Android设备把获得的registration_id和C2DM功能的用户账户([email protected])发送给自己的服务器,不过一般用户账户信息因为和服务器确定好的,所以不必发送。
这样Android设备就完成了C2DM功能的注册过程,接下来就可以接收C2DM服务器Push过来的消息了。
(4)服务器获得数据。这里图中的例子Chrome To Phone,服务器接收到Chrome浏览器发送的数据。数据也可以是服务器本地产生的。这里的服务器是Google AppEngine(很好的一项服务,可惜在国内被屏了),要换成自己的服务器。服务器还要获取注册使用C2DM功能的用户账户([email protected])的ClientLogin权限Auth。
(5)服务器把要发送的数据和registration_id一起,并且头部带上获取的Auth,使用POST的方式发送给C2DM服务器。
(6)C2DM服务器会以Push的方式把数据发送给对应的Android设备,Android设备只要在程序中按之前和服务器商量好的格式从对应的key中获取数据即可。
这样我们就大概明白了C2DM的工作流程,下面我们就结合一个实例来具体的说明以上6个步骤。
我们要创建的程序名称为AndroidC2DMDemo,包名为com.ichliebephone.c2dm。
开始之前我们先去C2DM网页上注册一下使用C2DM功能的用户账户。
图2 应用程序名
其中应用程序名要填写带包名的完整名称,比如这里为om.ichliebephone.c2dm. AndroidC2DMDemo。
图3 C2DM用户账户注册
这里的contact邮箱使用一个你能接收到邮件的邮箱即可,下面的Role(sender)account邮箱最好单独注册一个Gmail邮箱来使用C2DM服务。我们这里使用的是专门注册的[email protected]邮箱。
提交后,过一段时间就会收到Google发送过来的确认邮件,然后你就可以使用C2DM的Push服务了。
介绍了这么多,我们先来快速完成一个实例,只完成Android设备端的注册部分,不包含向服务器发送registration_id和服务器向C2DM服务器发送数据的具体代码,这部分只是用Ubuntu下的curl命令来模拟,主要是快速亲自体验一下Push的结果。
创建一个Android工程AndroidC2DMDemo,并且包含进Google的开源例子Chrome To Phone中的c2dm包com.google.android.c2dm,包中包含三个Java类,分别为:
第一个类为C2DMBaseReceiver:

}
}
代码中已添加了部分中文注释,可以先大概了解下,等整个工程建立完了在一起解释。
然后创建我们自己的包com.ichliebephone.c2dm,包含两个类,一个是工程的入口AndroidC2DMDemo:
package com.ichliebephone.c2dm;
import com.google.android.c2dm.C2DMessaging;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
public class AndroidC2DMDemo extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private static final String TAG = "AndroidC2DMDemo";
public static final String SENDER_ID = "[email protected]"; //使用C2DM服务的用户账户
public static final String MESSAGE_KEY_ONE = "msg"; //和服务器商量好的接收消息的键值key
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Log.v(TAG, "Start");
//向C2DM服务器注册
C2DMessaging.register(this, SENDER_ID);
}
}
很简单,就是开始向C2DM服务器进行注册。
另一个类为C2DMBaseReceiver的子类C2DMReceiver:
package com.ichliebephone.c2dm;
import java.io.IOException;
import android.app.Notification;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import com.google.android.c2dm.C2DMBaseReceiver;
//接收C2DM服务器Push的消息,包括注册返回的registration_id消息,推送的数据消息等
public class C2DMReceiver extends C2DMBaseReceiver{
private static final String TAG="C2DMReceiver";
//
public C2DMReceiver()
{
super(AndroidC2DMDemo.SENDER_ID);
}
public C2DMReceiver(String senderId) {
super(senderId);
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
//接收到Push消息的回调函数
@Override
protected void onMessage(Context context, Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.v(TAG, "C2DMReceiver message");
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
if(extras!=null){
String msg = (String)extras.get(AndroidC2DMDemo.MESSAGE_KEY_ONE);
Log.v(TAG, "The received msg = "+msg);
//在标题栏上显示通知
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Notification notification = new Notification(R.drawable.icon, msg, System.currentTimeMillis());
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(this, AndroidC2DMDemo.class), 0);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(this, getString(R.string.app_name), msg, contentIntent);
notificationManager.notify(0, notification);
}
}
@Override
public void onError(Context context, String errorId) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.v(TAG, "C2DMReceiver error");
}
@Override
public void onRegistered(Context context, String registrationId)
throws IOException {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onRegistered(context, registrationId);
Log.v(TAG, "C2DMReceiver Register");
}
@Override
public void onUnregistered(Context context) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onUnregistered(context);
Log.v(TAG, "C2DMReceiver UnRegister");
}
}
在这个类中我们主要在接收到Push的回调函数onMessage中对消息进行了接收,并且使用Notification的方式显示在状态栏上。
我们完整的工程目录是这样的:
图4 工程目录
最后我们还要在AndroidManifest.xml中增加对应的权限等内容:
因为C2DM功能只有2.2及以上的Android系统才支持,因此创建一个2.2及以上的AVD,然后在”设置->账户与同步”里还要设置好Google Account,如下图所示:
图5 设置Android设备中的Google账户
然后就可以运行程序了,我们会在DDMS输出中看到获得的registration_id:
图6 获得的registration_id
如果第一次运行没有出现,试着再运行一次。
有了registration_id,我们的服务器端就可以向C2DM端发送需要Push的数据了,这里进行简单化处理下,在Ubuntu下直接使用curl命令来模拟服务器功能向C2DM发送数据。
我们先来获取C2DM的ClientLogin权限Auth,在Ubuntu终端下输入:
lingaohe@lingaohe-laptop:~$ curl -d "[email protected]&Passwd=androidc2dmdemo&service=ac2dm&source=bupt-c2dmdemo-1.0" https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin
这个表示以POST的方式向https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin发送数据,其中把Email和Passwd换成你自己在C2DM网页上注册的邮箱号和密码。
如果你的邮箱已在C2DM网页上注册,并且密码没有错误的话就会返回需要的Auth内容:
SID=DQAAAKYAAADcTtHbBBNcZJEOfkfVRycD_ZOIidwsQ3UwIY7cSrYWaY6uhlfo0l9gRPB-mQxP4K2T5tWiG--vWVmSTeq5p8SPwgnsYvfzj7bkNiPPIy4xRimVVfBmAHnZgLohw7gHMKi5DS6kK-Ut5tNzdTkI0I2tUDF0ryQ7MnPpI6Sj-gUCyBXmvKatHHDnNTTV78XdGIx7FYej1DyqGsPsYo3bCstHgltjv3cd2Hs7D4yrpUWHZw

返回的内容包括SID,LSID和Auth三个部分,其中Auth是我们需要的内容。
有了Auth和registration_id值后,我们就可以继续用curl命令模拟我们自己服务器的功能向C2DM发送要推送的数据:
lingaohe@lingaohe-laptop:~$ curl -H "Authorization:GoogleLogin auth=DQAAAKoAAACRF4pgYULnXULoWgbwfdqmMiRhfZYa1l-LW_rwGD7cofov4L4c2bVrtCOXbEbkju_hhqdAonpMkrb5icptt28fU8c-s-u1y2MXNYDxPIdQzfA2t6oI3NTmyj35MpsR1NKL4TN7ZVEn6z9NueuiKAqLHukZYh1YMGkGC8M6rVvA7AWPW36064XCQED7KLVNp_pGT00lrni7UdZKZWEy0FT-EVR-OxDyHWw6C-5Kmfkisw" -d "registration_id=APA91bGUBoSvt3G5Ny9t0IGLmIKAKYX6G6VHwSQHh3tP2fqcaQ0N4GPdKh5B3RDUHFCFF06YwT8ifOP_cOy5BAWyCLHL8d8NpuIW9AqXt9h2JSBVF2MitZA&collapse_key=1&data.msg=ichliebejiajia" https://android.apis.google.com/c2dm/send
其中发送的数据部分为data.msg=ichliebejiajia,表示发送的数据内容为ichliebejiajia,键值为msg,键值得和Android终端上的程序统一好,以便终端上可以获取。如果发送成功,会返回一个id值,比如:
id=0:1308623423080544%6c5c15c200000031
lingaohe@lingaohe-laptop:~$
这时我们的服务器就已经把数据发送给C2DM服务器了,Android设备上一会就能接收到C2DM服务器Push的数据。
在我们的例子中我们可以看到DDMS中打印出的消息:
图7 获取到的Push数据
同时Android模拟器的状态栏上会有对应的通知显示:
图8 Android模拟器接收到的Push数据
这样我们就快速实现了下Android的C2DM框架的Push功能。进一步的具体解释说明及服务器端的代码处理我们以后再学习。
