Pushover Plugin - push notifications

[haavarda]

Works very good. Nice to get the image with the notification. Thanks for the work with this plugin.
One thing I noticed. In the log, the picture file is listed multiple times. Is this normal? Does it send the image 4 times?

Code: Select all

No, it's just because

Code: Select all

prepareTextValue()

is being called multiple times to expand variables in the attachment field and that function logs the result each time. It should probably just be called once for

Code: Select all

msgAttachment

and the result put in a variable.

I noticed this too. I'll see if I can improve it.

Hey guys - seeing as there are multiple people contributing (which is fantastic), when you guys are ready to create a new release let me know (I don't think we want to create a new release every time there's a pull request, particularly given that there have been 3 or 4 in the past day or so).

So, when you're done with any changes for the short-term (next several days for instance) then let me know and I'll generate a new release. I will go ahead and merge the 2 outstanding pull requests so the master is caught up.

I just sent the two contributors (@jcs and @vtmikel) to this plugin invitations to give you write access so you can just push directly to the repo. When you think it's ready for a release let me know and I'll create it.

I'm curious how the SecuritySpy users plan to implement the attachments.

My SecuritySpy server is the same as my Indigo. As far as I can tell, the continuous capture feature in SecuritySpy only allows for a FTP transfer. And the other image options adds timestamps so you will never know the name of the jpg file you need.

I could send it to my NAS, and download it back to the Mac, but that round trip seems silly and would likely cause a delay in the image that gets sent to pushover.

I'm thinking that, instead, I would get the jpeg of the camera via the SecuritySpy web server. Easiest place to script this would be to do this via the Pushover plugin. If we allowed http/https in the attachments dialog, the plugin would grab the image, store it temporarily, and send that to pushover. I'm thinking this would be useful not just for SecuritySpy users, but others as well. Thoughts?

Jay, with no error reports I’d say you can create a new release.

Have you tried the webcam image rather than image capture? . Stores image on local Mac and just updates the same file every x seconds so no changing name. Always gives you most recent image

The current Beta version of SecuritySpy allows for local file storage as an alternative to FTP transfer. See https://www.bensoftware.com/forum/discu ... mment_7412

Well. If you told me a day earlier, you could have saved me from building a plugin to do this . That's frustrating. I even contacted bensoftware to ask about the location of the Web Camera image, and they didn't mention the beta feature. Oh well. I added stitching to my plugin which may be useful to some.

Sorry about that, but I didn't know before I posted that. I was browsing their support forum, and noticed some threads about FTP issues in HS. It was buried in there.

[vtmikel]

@Jay, bumping this thread so that you can push a release.

Version 1.4.0 has been released on GitHub:

https://github.com/IndigoDomotics/indig ... /tag/1.4.0

There's an issue getting the store updated. I'm working with Jay on that now.

[jay (support)]

Updated in the Plugin Store.

I've needed a method of posting notifications to all my iOS devices and a Mac OS desktop. This is exactly what I've been hoping for! It has been working perfectly.

Thanks to all the contributors who have made the requests in this forum a reality. All of your contributions are evident and appreciated!
