FcmJava is a library for working with the Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) API.
You can add the following dependencies to your pom.xml to include FcmJava in your project.
<dependency>
<groupId>de.bytefish.fcmjava</groupId>
<artifactId>fcmjava-core</artifactId>
<version>0.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>de.bytefish.fcmjava</groupId>
<artifactId>fcmjava-client</artifactId>
<version>0.4</version>
</dependency>The Quickstart shows you how to work with FcmJava.
The FCM API Key is read from an external .properties file to ensure the API Key secret does not reside in code or leaks into the public.
The file contains the API Endpoint to send to and the API Key:
fcm.api.url=https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send
fcm.api.key=<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>You can use the PropertiesBasedSettings class to read the Properties:
PropertiesBasedSettings.createFromDefault()- Uses the default file location of
System.getProperty("user.home") + "/.fcmjava/fcmjava.properties"to read the properties. This is the recommended way of reading your API Key.
- Uses the default file location of
PropertiesBasedSettings.createFromFile(Path path, Charset charset)- Uses a custom file location to read the Client Settings from.
PropertiesBasedSettings.createFromSystemProperties()- Uses the System Properties to initialize the Client Settings.

}I have decided to clone the messaging quickstart sample of Google, which is available at:
Now first subscribe to the news topic, then execute the above FcmJava application.
The Android app will now receive a message with the sent data included:
