在搜索了很长一段时间后，我终于能够弄清楚我到底需要什么，连接到GCM使用PHP作为服务器端脚本语言，下面的教程将让我们清楚地了解如何设置我们需要开始使用GCM的一切

Android推送通知使用谷歌云消息(GCM)， PHP和MySQL

许多教程都过时了，甚至当前的代码都没有考虑设备注册id何时更新或设备取消注册。如果不检查这些项目，最终将导致无法接收消息的问题。http://forum.loungekatt.com/viewtopic.php?t=63#p181

这很容易做到。Elad Nava放在这里的页面上的cURL代码是有效的。Elad评论了他收到的错误。

描述在为该收件人处理消息时发生的错误的字符串。可能的值与上表中记录的值相同，再加上“Unavailable”(意味着GCM服务器繁忙，无法为特定的收件人处理消息，因此可以重试)。

我已经得到了一个服务设置，似乎已经工作(ish)，到目前为止，我已经回来的都是不可用的回报从谷歌。这种情况很可能很快就会改变。

要回答这个问题，请使用PHP，确保Zend框架在您的include路径中，并使用以下代码:

<?php
    ini_set('display_errors',1);
    include"Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php";
    Zend_Loader_Autoloader::getInstance();

    $url = 'https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send';
    $serverApiKey = "YOUR API KEY AS GENERATED IN API CONSOLE";
    $reg = "DEVICE REGISTRATION ID";

    $data = array(
            'registration_ids' => array($reg),
            'data' => array('yourname' => 'Joe Bloggs')
    );

    print(json_encode($data));

    $client = new Zend_Http_Client($url);
    $client->setMethod('POST');
    $client->setHeaders(array("Content-Type" => "application/json", "Authorization" => "key=" . $serverApiKey));
    $client->setRawData(json_encode($data));
    $request = $client->request('POST');
    $body = $request->getBody();
    $headers = $request->getHeaders();
    print("<xmp>");
    var_dump($body);
    var_dump($headers);

结果出来了。一个在Zend Framework PHP中使用google新GCM的工作示例(很快就会工作)。

你可以在packagist上使用这个PHP库:

https://github.com/CoreProc/gcm-php

安装后，你可以这样做:

$gcmClient = new GcmClient('your-gcm-api-key-here');

$message = new Message($gcmClient);

$message->addRegistrationId('xxxxxxxxxx');
$message->setData([
    'title' => 'Sample Push Notification',
    'message' => 'This is a test push notification using Google Cloud Messaging'
]);

try {

    $response = $message->send();

    // The send() method returns a Response object
    print_r($response);

} catch (Exception $exception) {

    echo 'uh-oh: ' . $exception->getMessage();

}

这段代码将通过PHP CURL向多个注册id发送一个GCM消息。

// Payload data you want to send to Android device(s)
// (it will be accessible via intent extras)    
$data = array('message' => 'Hello World!');

// The recipient registration tokens for this notification
// https://developer.android.com/google/gcm/    
$ids = array('abc', 'def');

// Send push notification via Google Cloud Messaging
sendPushNotification($data, $ids);

function sendPushNotification($data, $ids) {
    // Insert real GCM API key from the Google APIs Console
    // https://code.google.com/apis/console/        
    $apiKey = 'abc';

    // Set POST request body
    $post = array(
                    'registration_ids'  => $ids,
                    'data'              => $data,
                 );

    // Set CURL request headers 
    $headers = array( 
                        'Authorization: key=' . $apiKey,
                        'Content-Type: application/json'
                    );

    // Initialize curl handle       
    $ch = curl_init();

    // Set URL to GCM push endpoint     
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://gcm-http.googleapis.com/gcm/send');

    // Set request method to POST       
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);

    // Set custom request headers       
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);

    // Get the response back as string instead of printing it       
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

    // Set JSON post data
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($post));

    // Actually send the request    
    $result = curl_exec($ch);

    // Handle errors
    if (curl_errno($ch)) {
        echo 'GCM error: ' . curl_error($ch);
    }

    // Close curl handle
    curl_close($ch);

    // Debug GCM response       
    echo $result;
}

<?php
    // Replace with the real server API key from Google APIs
    $apiKey = "your api key";

    // Replace with the real client registration IDs
    $registrationIDs = array( "reg id1","reg id2");

    // Message to be sent
    $message = "hi Shailesh";

    // Set POST variables
    $url = 'https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send';

    $fields = array(
        'registration_ids' => $registrationIDs,
        'data' => array( "message" => $message ),
    );
    $headers = array(
        'Authorization: key=' . $apiKey,
        'Content-Type: application/json'
    );

    // Open connection
    $ch = curl_init();

    // Set the URL, number of POST vars, POST data
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    //curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields));

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    // curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    // curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields));

    // Execute post
    $result = curl_exec($ch);

    // Close connection
    curl_close($ch);
    echo $result;
    //print_r($result);
    //var_dump($result);
