After install a new service is available. You can send GCM message/notification like this :

sails.services.pushnotification.sendGCMNotification("DEVICE_TOKEN", {
    data         : {
      key1 : 'message1',
      key2 : 'message2'
    },
    notification: {
      title: "Hello, World",
      icon: "ic_launcher",
      body: "This is a notification that will be displayed ASAP."
    }
  }, true, function (err, results)
  {
    console.log(err, results);
  });

    alert : "new message",
    payload : {'messageFrom': 'Caroline'}
});
