Pushover notifications

[featheredtoast (Jeff Wong)]

Plugin for integrating Pushover notifications.

GitHub - featheredtoast/discourse-pushover-notifications: Pushover notifications for Discourse

This allows notifications to be sent over Pushover, which grants push-notification support for iOS, through the 3rd party app.

Configuration

Once installed, you will need an Application API token. Create a New Application and fill out the form.

After you created the application, copy the resulting API token to the Discourse admin plugin pages, and enable the plugin.

All users will then be able to add their User keys in their preference → Notifications.

There will be an immediate pushover message confirming the subscription.

Is this for real time notification on the phone when the site is not hosted by Discourse? Or is it for other purposes?

[featheredtoast (Jeff Wong)]

You got it; that’s pretty much it. Desktop and Android both have notification support natively; this is a way for self-hosters to get a notifications on iOS.

Thanks for this! Aside from the one time in-app purchase for each user, what are the pros and cons of using this vs. DiscourseHub?

[featheredtoast (Jeff Wong)]

It’s probably less set up involved if users already are using Pushover (there have been a few requests for this already) - Pushover also allows you to customize which devices get notified. If you’re already in the ecosystem (as I have waded in), it gives an option for you to continue down that path.

On the downsides aside from in app purchases, this plugin isn’t going to be offered by any of DIscourse’s current hosting, so continued support here is really on my own time. You are also dependent on the discourse instance installing the plugin, whereas Hub can be used for any site, regardless of plugins.

DiscourseHub has separate concerns in addition to notifications - namely it allows you to aggregate activity of sites all in a single place. This plugin is just concerned with delivering notifications.

I built this mainly because I missed built in push notifications while moving to iOS, and had started using Pushover in other contexts (IRC, and long-running command line prompts), so it felt natural to start experimenting sending Discourse notifications to Pushover as well.

Is this still an active plugin? I have it installed, added the API key from Pushover, though I cannot see any place in /u/waffleslop/preferences/notifications to add a user key.

Discourse 2.7.0.beta5

[featheredtoast (Jeff Wong)]

I’m still around! Just been more behind-the-scenes lately. Been a bit since I dug into this particular plugin, but let me see what I can find out.

[featheredtoast (Jeff Wong)]

@waffleslop I can confirm that this plugin still works. Have you enabled the plugin and saved your application API key?

It won’t appear unless the plugin is enabled. A user will need to refresh the page to get it to show up after that.

After that, you will see the following in messages:

[waffleslop]

The plugin works for me. All is well.

Ciao @featheredtoast, è possibile che un recente aggiornamento di discourse abbia rotto il plugin?

Pochi giorni dopo l’aggiornamento a 2.9.0.beta1, ho ricevuto questo messaggio da Pushover che diceva che il mio plugin discourse stava effettuando troppe richieste non valide alla loro API

Questo è successo nonostante il mio volume di notifiche molto basso. Non sono nemmeno vicino alla loro quota.

[featheredtoast (Jeff Wong)]

Hmm, non c’è nulla di cui sia a conoscenza che possa causare un’interruzione dal lato Discourse, ma posso dare un’occhiata.

Questo plugin sta generando un avviso di deprecazione:

L'uso di Ember Global è deprecato. Dovresti importare il modulo Ember o l'API specifica invece.

C’è in programma un aggiornamento del plugin? Da quanto vedo, non c’è stata attività qui da parecchio tempo.

[Alon1 (Alon)]

Mi sarebbe piaciuto usarlo anche questo. Ma purtroppo posso confermare che al momento l’utilizzo di questo plugin causa un errore nella console ReferenceError: Ember is not defined

Puoi provare questo fork per ora:

branch: fix-deprecation

Farò una PR adeguata più tardi.

[Alon1 (Alon)]

Confermo che la tua versione corretta funziona da parte mia!
Grazie

[Arkshine]

Sembra che David mi abbia battuto su questo, grazie!

Resolve ember-global deprecation

[david (David Taylor)]

Mi dispiace @Arkshine - stavo lavorando a un report sullo stesso problema qui su Site broken due to ember 5 upgrade - #12 by david.

Secondo me vale ancora la pena pubblicare il tuo PR, e poi chiuderò il mio. Sembra che il tuo faccia un po’ più di pulizia e corregga anche una deprecazione lato server

[Arkshine]

Nessun problema @david . Volevo dividerlo in più PR, ma probabilmente qui non fa molta differenza.

Mi scuso per non aver mantenuto aggiornato questo plugin ultimamente - grazie per le modifiche @Arkshine - molto apprezzato
