React-native-push-notification: iOS: Can't remove local notifications from Notification Center

[simonepauro]

After showing a local notification with

PushNotification.localNotification({
    ...
    userInfo: { id: '123' }
    ...
});

I tried the following methods to remove it from the Notification Center

• PushNotification.cancelLocalNotifications({id: '123'});
• PushNotification.cancelAllLocalNotifications();

Both of them are not working for me so I found a workaround

Workaround

This method is for Android only:
PushNotification.clearAllNotifications();

I edited it from this

function() {
    return this.callNative('clearAllNotifications', arguments);
}

to this

function() {
    if (Platform.OS === 'ios') return this.callNative('removeAllDeliveredNotifications', arguments);
    return this.callNative('clearAllNotifications', arguments);
}

So now it works for iOS and I can use it to remove all the notifications

A workaround in any shared code looks very similar:

import { Platform, PushNotificationIOS } from 'react-native';
...
if (Platform.OS === 'ios') {
  PushNotificationIOS.removeAllDeliveredNotifications();
}

Thanks for putting me on the right path @simonepauro !
