POLL --- What Type of Notification Service do you use ?

What type of notification service do you use ?
The reason I am interested is to see what portion of the user community uses something other than the MCV mail/sms gateway. If it’s large enough maybe we can get them to open up the existing notification UI for these additional services.
See [url=http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,9525.0.html]http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,9525.0.html[/url] for details.

This may skew your results somewhat, but I currently use the built-in one. I’d use something completely different if I could readily change it to my own implementation…

If I had the ability to swap it out, then I’d switch out the default one for native USB-based SMS, and XMPP. I even have the code for the Lua SMS parts (send and receive)

Prowl.

Edit: sorry, is this a poll? I’m using Tapatalk and it doesn’t give any indication that there is a poll attached. When I’m near a real browser I will insert my response. I voted.

Folks,
The text responses are great … but down’t forget to answer the POLL at the top of the thread.
I have not seen anyone use the POLL feature on these forums … but this topic lends itself to it.

Automator.app Push Notifications!

I use Prowl. I set up a main function in the startup lua:

-- Send push message to all or custom reciver -- send to all devices: use param ALL -- usage: pushMsg("message", "topic", "receiver")

apikeys = { mirk=“ssdfaadafdawedxdedsdddafx”, chix=“fxasdxfawedxaefxaxaxecaxf” }

function pushMsg(msg, event, reciver)
if ( reciver ~= “ALL” ) then
luup.log("mirkLog[i] push MSG: " … msg … " event: " … event … " to: " … reciver … “=”… apikeys[reciver])
luup.inet.wget(“https://api.prowlapp.com/publicapi/add?apikey=” … apikeys[reciver] … “&application=Vera3&event=” … event … “&description=” … msg … “&priority=+1”)
else
–loop throug apikeys
for k,v in pairs(apikeys) do
– print(msg … “event: " … event … " to: " … k … " apikey” … v )
luup.log("mirkLog[i] push MSG: " … msg … " event: " … event … " to: " … k)
luup.inet.wget(“https://api.prowlapp.com/publicapi/add?apikey=” … v … “&application=Vera3&event=” … event … “&description=” … msg … “&priority=+1”)
end
end
end

then I can easily set up messages in the scenes with a simple luup code:

pushMsg("Coffee+Machine+is+ready!", "Nespresso", "ALL")

I am thinking about writing a prowl plugin, but didn’t have time so far…

BTW: Thanks to @kru, he’s a friend of mine and wrote this code!
