Push-Notifications

Share Info & Ideas Code & Libraries
1

Hy,
I just needed a quick solution to statisfy the custumers idea to get Push-Notifications on his Cellphone, from a X20CP0483.
After some research i found Pushover (Easys Setup - 5,99€ Lifetime Licence per Client Device 20k Messages / month)
and implemented a couple of Pushmessages with the Https Lib of AS without any big issues.

Maybe somebody was looking for such solution as well.

Hi @Michael_Rest,

Great!! I really like Pushover because of the lean API and the “buy once use forever” license model.

I implemented the same some years ago to use it inside a private project.
But I didn’t shared it because I couldn’t imagine that anyone else might need it … perhaps I should rethink my sharing strategy. :smiley:

Best regards!

Hy @alexander.hefner ,
same to me - i often think in packing Code like this in a lib and share it,
but there is always lack of time.
That’s why i published the idea here, so i can provide Codefragments to help implement.

Best Michi

rethink your strategy if you have more tips like this. :slight_smile: I really like and will for sure test it and use it :slight_smile:

Hi @kovarj,

okay, here it comes :smiley:

The library “TBSWpush” implements direct push messages using the pushover message api (only message api, see Pushover: API):

The zip at the bottom of this post contains a AS4.12 sample project including the library implementation + one task that shows how to setup and execute the call.
No documentation available unfortunately, but at least the description of the function block and structure elements can be found in the corresponding var / typ files.

What you have to do:

  • create a pushover account, get a user key, see: https://pushover.net
  • setup a pushover application with this account
  • install a pushover client on your smartphone / tablet / desktop … (free trial for xxx days, “a few $ for each client installation”)
  • use the pushover application and group or user keys with the library “TBSWpush”

Of course you have to get familiar with pushover, because the library can only provide the message pushing itself.
So read carefully the informations and instructions at https://pushover.net about account and application creation, client registration, subscribing to pushover applications a.s.o.

Happy message pushing :wink:
