Try using the official Urban Airship Java API - This should help you get started...

urbanairship4j (available on Google Code) uses Google HTTP Java Client so works perfectly on any Java environment (inc. AppEngine, Android, etc).

This project in bitbucket encapsulates the Urban Airship REST API in Java.

https://bitbucket.org/sullis/urbanairship-java

The project has external dependencies on following libraries:

  • commons codec
  • commons logging
  • google gson
  • apache http client
  • apache http core

Once downloaded and compiled, you can send the push notification with following code:

public static void sendNotification() {
        Push push = new Push();
        push.setAliases(Arrays.asList("39901"));

        // For Android
        Android android = new Android();
        android.setAlert("hi there");
        push.setAndroid(android);

        // For iOS
        // APS aps = new APS();
        // aps.setBadge(1);
        // aps.setAlert("hi there");
        // aps.setSound("default");
        // aps.setData("additinoal data");
        // push.setAps(aps);

        UrbanAirshipClient uac = new UrbanAirshipClient("app key",
                "master app key");
        uac.sendPushNotifications(push);
    }
