HS3 Pushover Plugin

[goldriver]

Well because these are just test events I am just using "The Event is Manually Triggered" and then just a Message is sent. No devices or statuses are being used in that test.

Here is an event exemple where I would test if my device "PHLocation2 PHLocation2 Geofency Iphone Bruno Bruno A La Maison (virtuelle)" status changes and become On (where On being at Home and Off away from home) and if On I would send a pushover message where I hardcoded the message with the device name in it: "Bruno arrived home"

pcgirl65 as for why it did not work in the other test event, I have no clue, it could be that some problematic data has been retained in the other test event !

HA! I am using 0.0.0.48. I deleted the test event and did a new one and it did work! So how come it didn't work with the other test event? j Also, if I want to send a pushover with the devices name in the message, how do I do that. So for instance, I have an event that when someone arrives home it will turn on the heat and send a pushover message that they are home. How do I include the name of the device that has arrived home?

to my knowledge there is no HS3 variable link to Device Name but my guess is that your event test if a device is On or Off (present or absent) if so then at the time of building you event to test if Person-A is present or not you know on whcih Device name you are testing so you could manually type in the name of the Device Name ?

here is the liste of the replacements variable in HS3

Sorry when I wrote PI I meant what version of the Pushover Plug In ...

before removing, have you tried a completely new event and see if the problem is still there ?

[pcgirl65]

I am using windows 10 not pi. I haven't disabled, removed and re-installed yet. Is this necessary? It did work a day ago and I didn't do anything else to HS today.

[goldriver]

pcgirl65 what version of PI are you running ? 0.0.0.47 or 48 ?

I just updated to 0.0.0.48 and I ran an event with a pushover including a variable and it works fine on my side.

have you tried building a completely new event and retry if you still have the problem ?

Have you tried disabling, remove and re-install ?

Weird thing is that it did work yesterday. Now it isn't working.

I have just installed this on the weekend and I did some test messages which worked fine. Today I am trying the test with variables in the message but it isn't sending any message. I took the variable out and it still isn't sending any messages. I am getting an error in the log:

Mar-18 9:19:26 AM

Pushover 3P

Unknown Exception in Pushmessage Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I'm having the same issue. Is it possible to downgrade to the previous version?

Anyone have a link to the Homeseer documentation for this plugin? The link on the plugin is dead. If I can figure out how to create a device I should be good to go.

The documentation is in the first post, in addition if you download the new version from the updater you will get a copy in the \Docs folder in your HS system.

A note to those worried about pushover and HS4. It should be straightforward to use the Big5 plugin to post messages directly to pushover. This would require getting a token for your own app (as I understand their policy). Big5 has the string building tools of .NET. So probably no need for a Pushover specific plugin or other scripting.

I use Big 5 to get 5 minute prices from my electric utility. Homeseer uses those prices to decide when to run my steam humidifier in winter, and dehumidifers in summer.

Version .48 has been submitted to the updater (might take a few days), no real changes other than to the fact that the documentation is now in the \Docs\ folder in your HomeSeer directory.
