Android docs outdated

Intercom 5 is due to be discontinued and will stop working in June 2020.

Users need to install Intercom 6:

implementation 'io.intercom.android:intercom-sdk:6.+'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.+'

https://github.com/intercom/intercom-android

Additionally the MainMessagingService example for combining Intercom pushes with react-native-firebase no longer works due to a major version change on that library.

I’m currently integrating this library with all the newer stuff - will post in this issue the necessary changes and then we can hopefully update the docs!

To get react-native-intercom working with the newest React Native Firebase (there is an example for this in the docs…

The change is quite simple to be honest, RNFirebaseMessagingService has changed to ReactNativeFirebaseMessagingService. That’s it. Also, the original implementation was missing something for the Intercom push token that also needs to be present.

Feel free to remove the below logs, I found them really helpful.

PushNotificationService.java (make sure the name matches in AndroidManifest.xml)

package com.your.package.name.here;

import io.intercom.android.sdk.push.IntercomPushClient;
import io.invertase.firebase.messaging.ReactNativeFirebaseMessagingService;
import com.google.firebase.messaging.RemoteMessage;
import android.util.Log;
import java.util.Map;

public class PushNotificationService extends ReactNativeFirebaseMessagingService {
	private static final String TAG = "PushNotificationService";
	private final IntercomPushClient intercomPushClient = new IntercomPushClient();

	@Override
	public void onNewToken(String refreshedToken) {
		intercomPushClient.sendTokenToIntercom(getApplication(), refreshedToken);

		super.onNewToken(refreshedToken);
	}

	@Override
	public void onMessageReceived(RemoteMessage remoteMessage) {
		Map message = remoteMessage.getData();

		Log.d(TAG, "Hi I received a push message: " + message.toString());

		if (intercomPushClient.isIntercomPush(message)) {
			Log.d(TAG, "The message is from Intercom.");
			intercomPushClient.handlePush(getApplication(), message);
		} else {
			Log.d(TAG, "The message is from Firebase.");
			super.onMessageReceived(remoteMessage);
		}
	}
}
