Pushover

Pushover

The robomotion pushover CLI sends push notifications via Pushover to mobile and desktop devices. It supports priority levels (including emergency with acknowledgment), custom sounds, URL attachments, and delivery receipt verification.

When to use

• Send push notifications with custom priority, title, and message
• Send emergency notifications that require acknowledgment
• Attach URLs and custom sounds to notifications
• Verify delivery receipts for critical alerts

Prerequisites

• robomotion CLI installed
• Package installed: robomotion install pushover
• Pushover API token and user key configured via Robomotion vault

IMPORTANT: Session Mode Required for Multi-Step Operations

Each CLI command runs as a separate process — connection IDs from connect do NOT persist across calls. You MUST use --session on connect and pass --session-id to all subsequent commands.

Workflow

1. Install (once): robomotion install pushover
2. Connect with session:

   robomotion pushover pushover_connect --session --output json
   # → {"outClientId":"<client-id>","session_id":"<session-id>"}
   

3. Use the returned client-id and session-id in all subsequent commands:

   robomotion pushover pushover_send --client-id "<client-id>" --message <text> --title <title> --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   

4. Disconnect when done:

   robomotion pushover pushover_disconnect --client-id "<client-id>" --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   

Always append --output json to get structured JSON results.
