Add Support for Pushbullet.com Notifications

[krkeegan]

Pushbullet is similar to Pushover. It allows you to send notification messages directly from MH to your devices.

A device can be an iOS or Android phone, a windows PC, or any Chrome browser. All of the clients are free and the service is free.

Pushbullet has many features:

• Send notes, urls, files, lists, and addresses
• Add multiple devices and friends
• Choose which devices and friends to send a particular push to

Right now the code provides a user friendly mechanism to send notes. A low level module also provides raw support for sending whatever you want to the Pushbullet API. In future commits, I hope to make additional features easy to use.

The addition of this feature to MH and some of the code was inspired by George Clark's work on the Pushover support.

Hey @krkeegan, I'm experimenting with this but I fail to get it working properly.

I have defined the Pushbullet_xxx parameters in mh.private.ini

Pushbullet_token=my_token_from_the_pushbullet_account_settings
Pushbullet_title="MisterHouse"
Pushbullet_disable=0

I have defined in items.mht:

CODE, require Pushbullet; #noloop 
CODE, my $pbullet = new Pushbullet(); #noloop

I have the following code to test it out:

#Category=Interface

#noloop=start
$pbullet_test = new Voice_Cmd 'Send pushbullet test command';
#noloop=stop

if (said $pbullet_test) {

    $pbullet->push_note("Test message", "This is a MisterHouse test message -- " . $verwarm_depart->state);
    ::print_log("Tried sending the pushbullet message");
}

But when I run the voice command I get:

07/20/14 19:18:59  Running: Send pushbullet test command
07/20/14 19:18:59  [Pushbullet] message: This is a MisterHouse test message -- 23.87
normal: Pushbullet notification This is a MisterHouse test message -- 23.87
07/20/14 19:18:59  FUNCTION: set_volume_pre_hook
07/20/14 19:18:59  [Pushbullet] ERROR: POST Failed: Status:  -
07/20/14 19:18:59  Tried sending the pushbullet message
07/20/14 19:18:59  Setting speakers ON

Is this something you encountered when you were testing the code?

@hollie Yup, I had a bug in reading the token from the ini and for whatever reason, Pushbullet changed the JSON structure for reporting the error message so it wasn't appearing in our log.

I also changed the example, using my in the CODE definition isn't required and may actually cause some odd results.

Let me know if this does it. Kevin

Hey Kevin,

yes, your pull request fixes the issue.

For others: the example I gave for the Pushbullet_token in the error report is wrong: it needs to be without the "..". Just copy the token and paste it in the ini file. I have fixed the comment for later reference.

I have merged your pull request already.

Thanks for looking into this!

Hollie.
