## Prerequisities

* Elixir 1.15
* OTP 24 / 25 / 26

## Installation

1. Add `web_push_elixir` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:web_push_elixir, "~> 0.2.0"}
  ]
end
```

2. Run mix command to generate your Vapid public and private keys:

```commandline
mix generate.vapid.keys
```

3. Set config for your generated keys:

```elixir
config :web_push_elixir,
  vapid_public_key: "someVapidPublicKey",
  vapid_private_key: "someVapidPrivateKey",
  vapid_subject: "mailto:admin@email.com"
```

## Usage

`WebPushElixir` provides a simple `send_notification/2` that takes 2 arguments:

* `subscription`: the subscription information received from the client - [example demo](https://midarrlabs.github.io/web-push-elixir/)
* `message`: the message string.

```elixir
subscription = '{"endpoint":"https://some-push-service","keys":{"p256dh":"BNcRdreALRFXTkOOUHK1EtK2wtaz5Ry4YfYCA_0QTpQtUbVlUls0VJXg7A8u-Ts1XbjhazAkj7I99e8QcYP7DkM=","auth":"tBHItJI5svbpez7KI4CCXg=="}}'
message = "Some message"

WebPushElixir.send_notification(subscription, message)
```
