PushBullet plugin (Pako)

Post by Pako »

I also tried the PushBullet plugin from sfalkman and basically it works ...
However, I had the feeling that there are some imperfections and that the plugin uses very little the potential of PushBullet service.
So I decided to create another version.
Perhaps you will like it.

Note - alerting sounds:
Receiving of any push can be accompanied by a sound. It's easy:
#1) In the main dialog of the plugin, select the directory, where the sounds are stored (default is ...\EventGhost\plugins\PushBullet\sounds).
#2) For each push type (Note, Link, File, Mirror) there give an audio file (it must be of type wav). Example: for push type Note it must be a file note.wav.
#3) If the field to select the folder is empty, the feature is disabled.
#4) If the file is missing for some push type, no audio will sound for corresponding push type.

Well, I had a look at the updated API's and Pako's plugin last night and I have to say that my plugin is completely obsolete :)
I won't be making any updates on my plugin, so use Pako's plugin instead!

EDIT: By the way, thank you Pako! I haven't test the plugin fully, but to be able to receive push events in Eventghost will be extremely helpful for me. Good job!

I think it fits everyone...
However, most people seem to take for granted and do not bother with some commentary.
They probably have no idea, how much effort it requires.

More good news for many PushBullet users:
Pushbullet's IFTTT Channel Is Online!
While I personally have not yet found absolutely no use for IFTTT.
But it is not important. I understand that for most users it is really good news.

Wish they had iOS 6 support. This would be perfect for me.

Thank you very much for this plugin.
just wondering if it's possible to send variables with it?
so if i send a message to my phone with suffix and Variable, then have Tasker do something with the payload of the message.
similar to how autoremote work, but autoremote is not always reliable, 50% of the time i dont receive the notification if i'm home under the same network

As far as I know, so PushBullet Tasker plugin does not currently support variables.
But I suppose it will be added soon.

EDIT:
I found that even currently it is possible to use variables.
You must set an option to copy the note's content to the clipboard in PushBullet
and then read the contents of the variable %CLIP in Tasker.

Great Plugin!

Is there a way to disable to mirrored notification from popping up? I have the chrome extension installed and each time I get a notification I see it twice, once from EG and once from Chrome.

It is not - yet.
When I wrote it, so it was possible (on Android device) to select a destination for mirroring.
Then it was not necessary to have such a possibility.

Now the situation is different. I agree that it would be beneficial and I will do it soon.
