What is the difference between Pushover and other similar services? Do you need a Pushover client in the phone to handle such notifications? Nonetheless, the conciseness of Pharo with Zinc never ceases to amaze me. Regards! Esteban A. Maringolo 2018-01-29 16:40 GMT-03:00 Sven Van Caekenberghe <sven@stfx.eu>:
Hi,
Just a little snippet I wanted to share. Pushover (https://pushover.net) is a general service that delivers notifications to iOS, Android and desktop devices via an API (and an email gateway as well). It is really easy to get started with.
This is how you do it from Pharo:
ZnClient new systemPolicy; url: 'https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json'; accept: ZnMimeType applicationJson; contentReader: [ :entity | NeoJSONObject fromString: entity contents ]; contentWriter: [ :object | ZnEntity json: object asString ]; contents: (NeoJSONObject new token: 'ax4o55o6g5imb1a6st3m9x34hqu44z'; user: 'uv2fovx3f9sp3rgssrupvjgvdo8quw'; title: 'Test 3'; message: ('This is a test @ {1} by {2}.' format: { DateAndTime now. SystemVersion current })); post.
It will look like this on your mobile device (just seconds later):
Nothing special, but pretty handy.
