[Support] Notify

Notify script support thread :)

Usage: pineapple infusion notify

Description:

Notify is a notification script using Pushover.net service to send push notification (https://pushover.net/) and msmtp to send email notification.

This script can be easily used in other infusions to get information about the pineapple status.

A free Pushover.net account must be created to use the push notification feature.

I have installed the Notify infusion and I have a pushover account -- how do I configure this infusion?

It reads "curl not installed". But when I click on "Install to Internal" then nothing happens.

Can you please assist? Thanks!

Workaround:

# ssh to the Mark V:

ssh root@172.16.42.1

# Install the packages

opkg update

opkg install curl

opkg install msmtp

# That should do it..

[svondutch]

I have installed curl (opkg manager infusion confirms this) but notify infusion still tells me: "curl not installed".

try a reboot after install

for me i got it all installed but having issues with configuring

a setup walkthru would be awesome when you have extra time

I have rebooted after install, but the Notify infusion still tells me "curl not installed" and clicking on "Install to Internal" does not do anything. Please assist. This infusion appears to be dead to me.

Thank you for the 1.1 update.

I have entered my Pushover app token + user key and I can send myself a test notification. Woohoo!

However, the infusion mistakenly thinks I haven't configured my Pushover settings because it tells me "configuration not set" and I cannot enable the push notifications :(

1.2 is out :P

[svondutch]

Thank you for the 1.2 update. Please note the 1.2 update did not appear in the Pineapple Bar. I had to uninstall version 1.1 manually, and then install 1.2

Anyway, when is this thing going to send me notifications? Every time a device is Karma'ed? That would be sweet.

Thanks!

Nope, this infusion does not send notifications by itself as indicated in the first post. This infusion, after configured through the GUI, can be used by other infusions or scripts to send notifications through the command line:

pineapple infusion notify

You can have a look at my other infusion, logcheck, which will send you email notifications when devices are connected through Karma for example.

A tutuorial would be nice.. especially for the email section.

For example; in the Pushover section in Notify; what goes in the App token section?

Create a Pushover account on the website and create an application. You will get the token and alle the info you need to get pushover notifications working.

What's your issue ?
