How to handle push notifications, while the app is not running?

[luxio]

The sample at https://github.com/signalpoint/push_notifications/blob/7.x-1.x/README.md#receiving-a-push-notification only works, if the push notification is received, while the app is running.

How can I handle a push notification, which the user selects, if the app is not running?

@luxio This is an interesting question, and I'm not sure who has the solution. With the latest version of Android on my phone, I notice that it now puts applications to sleep after 3 days of no-use, and these applications can't receive push notifications. I'm guessing the solution lies up in the push notifications plugin for cordova/phonegap, and probably requires an extra application install permission.
