While this PR is not accepted, I use its concepts on my fork of the original phonegap-plugin-push plugin (adapting the code, to the limit of my Java skills), and it works fine.

@uniquare Can you revert the changes you made in www/push.js and then rebase it against the main branch?
Or is it OK if I try to update your branch? I might be able to... but not sure...

[uniquare]

I've reverted the changes to www/push.js. Do I still need to rebase it (I'm not so familiar with git).

[erisu]

I am not seeing merge conflicts anymore so I think you dont need to rebase :)

I will merge this in, in a minute.

I will quickly create a PR and merge in the bumping of the cordova-android minimum requirement to >=12.0.0

The requirement bump will be required to go with your changes which added the android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission. That permission was introduced in API 33 and Cordova-Android 12.0.0 supports API 33 out of the box..

Older versions of Cordova does not work out of the box.

I want to confirm are you using Cordova-Android 12? or are you changing the sdk build tools with preference flag?

[uniquare]

Sorry, I rebased in the meantime.

Yes, I am using Cordova-Android 12.0.0.
