This chapter is all about understanding what push notifications are, how we enable our apps to receive push notifications the traditional way, and how pem will help us automatically manage creating, repairing, and refreshing our notification profiles the same way that match and sigh manages code signing provisioning profiles.
That is, we will be focusing on simplifying the creation and management of push notification profiles, similar to how we have been working with provisioning profiles, automatically generating a .pem file that you can upload to your push notification server.
The following skills will be learned in this chapter. We will be working with pem through the command line to:
- Create a new pem file, along with the required code signing identities needed for the server
- Integrate the lane into our project Fastfile
