Simplepush

Simplepush is a Lua module which sends push notification messages to your device, using the the simplepush.io service.

Note: Currently it does not support sending encrypted messages.

Installation

Copy 'simplepush.lua' into your Lua package path. On my macOS system with Lua installed using brew. It looks like this:

$ cp simplepush.lua /usr/local/share/lua/5.2/

To find your package paths, run the following code:

print("LUA MODULES:\n",(package.path:gsub("%;","\n\t")),"\n\nC MODULES:\n",(package.cpath:gsub("%;","\n\t")))

Output:

LUA MODULES:
        /usr/local/share/lua/5.2/?.lua
        /usr/local/share/lua/5.2/?/init.lua
        /usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/?.lua
        /usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/?/init.lua
        ./?.lua

C MODULES:
        /usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/?.so
        /usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/loadall.so
        ./?.so

Usage

simplepush = require "simplepush"

simplepush.send{key="<SIMPLEPUSH-KEY>", title="hello", msg="world"}

To match an event:

simplepush = require "simplepush"

simplepush.send{key="<SIMPLEPUSH-KEY>", title="hello", msg="world", event="door bell"}
