Android - The "Push.appCollection" is empty

Here is the test project to demonstrate this case: https://github.com/madc0w/push-test

Clone this repo and then just:

meteor run android-device

On startup, a new user with a random username will be created. The server will then continue attempting to send push notifications every 8 seconds. This allows the app to be closed on the device, as notifications will not be received while the app is open.

In the server log, you will see:

I20190219-18:26:47.868(1)? Push: Send message "test title" via query {}
I20190219-18:26:47.870(1)? Push: Sent message "test title" to 0 ios apps 0 android apps
I20190219-18:26:47.871(1)? Push, GUIDE: The "Push.appCollection" is empty - No clients have registred on the server yet...

and, of course, no notification is ever received on the device.

There is a build.gradle.bak file under cordova-build-override/platforms/android. This file contains the modifications suggested in the raix:push docs, all indicated with a “ADDED MANUALLY!” comment. Attempting to build/run this project with this file (i.e., by removing the “bak” suffix from the file name) will crash with:

   Execution failed for task ':processDebugGoogleServices'.
   > No matching client found for package name 'com.idpxbkbrfctuod.ybwqvoa26l9c'

Nonetheless, the project builds fine without these manipulations, so I’m not sure this is important.

Android 6.0.1 Meteor 1.8.0.2

There were so many… and my memory is fading a bit, probably due to the trauma of this experience.

One which I do remember had nothing to do with raix or push at all, but rather TAPi18n, which simply crashes the server with a helpful “huh?” logged to the console if you say the wrong thing to it. That took a day to understand. Charming.

Specifically, this: TAPi18n.__("you_have_n_notifications", {}, language); which works great, but if you instead do: TAPi18n.__("you_have_n_notifications", language); Then the whole server goes down, and all the information you get is “huh?”. Yeah… huh indeed.

Yea seems charming xD. I thought you got tired of errors and part your ways with the push functionality.
