Re: [b2g] Can't use mozAlarms API

Could you paste example code of what your script is doing. If you are using the result of add(), it will be a new ID every time. Also, this link https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/AlarmAPI says No, the getAll(...) only returns the alarms scheduled by the application. If it only returns the alarms added by the app itself, then what would be the correct procedure to get the Alarm from the clock app. Will I have to use alarmdb.js to retrieve them? Apps are bound by the same-origin policy, just like normal web pages. Which means you cannot access anything the clock app is doing from another app. If you really need to get the list of alarms added by the clock app, you'll have to add Inter-App Communication API support to the clock, get it landed in Gaia (with a requisite justification of strong enough use cases for this feature) and then have your app talk to clock over IAC.

Re: [b2g] Issues with Simple Push on 1.1 (Keon and Peak)

One last thing: This also happens for packaged apps, just tested it.

I did a bit more research and the problem seems to be that the files

not running.
This is not just about Simple Push, but also happens for alarms through
MozAlarmsManager:
messages: [
{ alarm: /push-message.html }
],
The file is never called when the alarm should trigger. Is there a general
issue with the system messaging?
According to the spec ( http://runtime.sysapps.org/#system-messages ) the
app should be started when not running, but again, this does not happen:
... Otherwise, if the application is not running, the UA must add the
message to the pool of messages and start the application ...

I'm able to get an endpoint successfully, but after that the issues start.
The messages attribute from the manifest gets ignored or at least the
files listed there will never be called (no matter what they contain):
messages: [
{ push: /ff/push-message.html},
{ push-register: /ff/push-message.html}
],
Normally the following code would be within push-message.html (as
suggested by the official Simple Push example):
window.navigator.mozSetMessageHandler('push', function(e) {
console.log(endpoint reached);
});
But as push-message.html never gets called, I put it instead in my main
page and the handler gets successfully called. The downside to this is
that it only gets called, if the app is in memory (in fore- or
background). If it is not (e.g. if device just started and app was not
started yet), nothing is called.
Am I doing something wrong or are these 2 issues known bugs or even
limitations?
This is about a hosted app (not a packaged app) in case it matters.
Thanks,
Michael
Hey Michael,
Until Bug 800431 is fixed, system messages can only be delivered to the page
that signed up for a particular API. That is, only the page which called
navigator.push.register() or mozAlarms.add() will receive the corresponding
system message. Please let us know if switching to one page works.
Best,
Nikhil
