Showing web push notifications from Chrome, Safari, and Firefox
React OneSignal
This is a JavaScript module that can be used to easily include OneSignal code in a website or app that uses React for its front-end codebase.
OneSignal is the world's leader for Mobile Push Notifications, Web Push, and In-App Messaging. It is trusted by 800k businesses to send 5 billion Push Notifications per day.
You can find more information on OneSignal here.
Migration Guide
Version 2.0 was recently released. Read the Migration Guide here if you're coming from a version 1 release of the SDK.
Contents
Install
You can use yarn
or npm
.
Yarn
yarn add react-onesignal
npm
npm install --save react-onesignal
Usage
Initialize OneSignal with your appId
via the options
parameter:
import OneSignal from 'react-onesignal';
OneSignal.init({ appId: 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' });
The init
function returns a promise that resolves when OneSignal is loaded.
Examples
await OneSignal.init({ appId: 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' });
const [initialized, setInitialized] = useState(false);
OneSignal.init({ appId: 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' }).then(() => {
setInitialized(true);
OneSignal.showSlidedownPrompt().then(() => {
});
})
Init Options
You can pass other options to the init
function. Use these options to configure personalized prompt options, auto-resubscribe, and more.
Service Worker Params
You can customize the location and filenames of service worker assets. You are also able to specify the specific scope that your service worker should control. You can read more here.
In this distribution, you can specify the parameters via the following:
Field | Details |
---|
serviceWorkerParam | Use to specify the scope, or the path the service worker has control of. Example: { scope: "/js/push/onesignal/" } |
serviceWorkerPath | The path to the service worker file. |
Service Worker File
If you haven't done so already, you will need to add the OneSignal Service Worker file to your site (learn more).
The OneSignal SDK file must be publicly accessible. You can put them in your top-level root or a subdirectory. However, if you are placing the file not on top-level root make sure to specify the path via the service worker params in the init options (see section above).

Advanced Usage
Events and Event Listeners

});
See the OneSignal WebSDK Reference for all available event listeners.
