A Node.js library providing an easy interface for sending push notifications to Android and iOS devices via Google Cloud Messaging / Firebase Cloud Messaging (legacy API). It is now deprecated since the Legacy FCM API it depends on was shut down in June 2024.
Use cases
- send push notifications to android devices from nodejs
- send fcm notifications from a node server
- push notification server library for gcm
- notify mobile app users from backend
- send firebase cloud messaging messages via legacy api
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy codebase already using node-gcm with the legacy FCM API
- learning how GCM/FCM legacy server-side sending worked
When to avoid
- any new project - the legacy FCM API stopped working in June 2024
- you need FCM HTTP v1 API support - use firebase-admin or fcm-v1-http2 instead
- production push notification delivery
