Cloudkit: CKNotificationInfo badge value never decrease
cknotification, cloudkit, icloud, ipad, iphone
Solution
This is a duplicate of CloudKit won't reset my badge count to 0
The answer there was: You need to do a CKModifyBadgeOperation after processing your notifications.
Here is my Swift function which I call after marking all the notifications as read. I add the operation to the defaultContainer instead of just starting it - I wonder does that make any difference.
func resetBadgeCounter() {
let badgeResetOperation = CKModifyBadgeOperation(badgeValue: 0)
badgeResetOperation.modifyBadgeCompletionBlock = { (error) -> Void in
if error != nil {
println("Error resetting badge: \(error)")
}
else {
UIApplication.sharedApplication().applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0
}
}
CKContainer.defaultContainer().addOperation(badgeResetOperation)
}
Problem
I set subscription notifications for cloudkit. Here is my code: ``` NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"TRUEPREDICATE"]; CKSubscription *subscription = [[CKSubscription alloc] initWithRecordType:recordType predicate:predicate options:CKSubscriptionOptionsFiresOnRecordCreation]; CKNotificationInfo *notificationInfo = [CKNotificationInfo new]; notificationInfo.alertLocalizationKey =@"New record in cloudKit"; notificationInfo.shouldBadge = YES; notificationInfo.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName; notificationInfo.shouldSendContentAvailable = YES; subscription.notificationInfo = notificationInfo; CKContainer *container = [CKContainer defaultContainer]; CKDatabase *publicDatabase = [container publicCloudDatabase]; [publicDatabase saveSubscription:subscription completionHandler:^(CKSubscription *subscription, NSError *error) { if (!error) { NSLog(@"no error"); } else { NSLog(@"error%@", error); } }]; ``` and works just fine. The problem is the badges, they seem like cloudKit doesn't reset the badge number and the keep increasing even when I set the badge count to zero. ``` - (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application { application.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0; } ``` When the app received a new notification goes from 0 to 5 (and every new notification increase by 1, the next time would be 6) Any of you knows how keep track of the right count of badges from cloudkit (in Objective-C )
