You're welcome!

Thanks. Very well but i not understand server push you use. Use google? Where configurations? notification permission is not saved? should it always be requested? Thanks

[@benixal]

Thank you for your comment! In the video, I didn't use a specific push server explicitly because it depends on the user's browser. For instance, if a user is using Chrome, the endpoint is automatically generated as fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send/... , or, if someone is using Firefox, the endpoint becomes updates.push.services.mozilla.com/wpush/v2/... , The browser takes care of this in the background. (In fact, this is one of the features of the browser and is provided by the browser) Regarding notification permission, it only needs to be requested once. Once the user grants permission, it's typically saved, and subsequent requests won't prompt the user again. You can check whether the user has a token, and if so, you don't need to request permission again. Also, if the user accepts the request once, the browser automatically knows this and will not ask the user questions and returns the same token as before.

@@benixal thanks for your answer. Is your code ready for testing? there is no need to add anything else in practice.

[@benixal]

Yes, I think the code is ready for testing. Additionally, if you're interested, I have another video where I explain the process using pure JavaScript and PHP: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ip-Zp3h6p7-dd7c

[@benixal]

I haven't tested with vue, but it should integrate smoothly.

JSON data type for mysql column seems to be the proper way to go.

when i use php artisan tinker to generate a public and private key it return runtimeException unable to create the key. Why is that?

[@benixal]

This issue usually occurs when the OpenSSL extension is not enabled (or not installed) in your PHP Solution #1: Enable OpenSSL Extension 1. Open the php.ini file. 2. Look for ;extension=openssl. 3. Take out the semicolon before it and save it Solution #2: Generate VAPID Keys Online If you don't have OpenSSL, you can use a website to make VAPID keys. Just search "generate VAPID keys." But remember, this Solution (#2) is mainly for practice, not real projects

[@faridmacadato4356]

@@benixal i tried the solution #1 and it still doesnt work. By the way i am using wamp64 as a virtual machine server. Acutally i do have an actual server at cloudways and when I use the php artisan tinker there it generates the keys. Is it okay to use that keys on my local development?

[@benixal]

Yes, it's okay to use the keys generated on your Cloudways server
