I know it’s not your fault. They are just not willing to make it easy to people who own them because they want to control the ecosystem…

When should notifications appear? Because MM just says “No New Notifications”

I signed up for a pushbutton account. Went to setting generated my api key. installed pushbutton module. ran npm install. then added the following to my config.js

{
                        module: 'phone_notification',
                        position: 'bottom_right',
                        header: 'Xperia Z3',
                        config: {
                                accessToken: 'o.XXXX$',
                                numberOfNotifications: 5,
                                displayNotificationIcon: true,
                                displayMessage: true,
                                displayCount: true,
                                alert: true,
                                fade: true,
                                maxCharacters: 50
                }
    },

Really all I want to do is display an incoming call (don’t care about historical, although I can see them in ppushbucket… An help would be appreciated.

@Les
Having the same issue here.
From the command line where I started npm I see nop nop nop push, each time a notification comes in.

I’ve got the same Problem some time ago. I didn’t know where the Problem is, but I can explain you @Les and @willharwell what I have done and it works fine at my mirror.

At first I have sing up at phushbellt Then I have installed like the Readme file says.

BUT then no notification will displayed. After spending hour for hour i opend the Link of moosedookie some post before and manually download the notification.js from this Link. Then I copy and overwrite it in the module Folder at my Raspberry.

And now everything works fine. For example If I push “test notification” in the Handy app, it will displayed directly.

I hope you understand…

@willharwell and @Les can you please try the latest push and let me know? I hope it will fix the issue.

How to Update your module

ronny3050

@nobita call ‘git pull’ in the phone_notification directory.

Has there been any progress in making notifications time out?

mschlesinger19

@guybatt234 I am not sure if the fix was ever put in for reversing the order but I figured out how to reverse the order of notifications. In phone_notification.js in the cleanPayload function instead of pushing to the back of the array just call a payload.unshift(newPayload) and that should treat it like a stack and not a queue

im on the latest revision but not receiving any notifcations

lucallmon

Has anyone had an issue with filling up your notifications and then no new notifications come through at all?

rchase

Anyone ever get iphone work?

lucallmon

@rchase android seems to work fine. As long as there’s a pushbullet app for iPhone it should work. I don’t even use the app on my phone.

How can I reset?
Notifications always keep.
Also The second notification is output hundreds or thousands of times.
What should I do??

Hi,

I’ve just installed your module for use with an iPhone. As I understand it, push-functionality is somewhat limited with Apple, but what can I expect this module to receive? Facebook messenger? Email? Calls/texts? Currently it doesn’t look like it’s receiving anything, but that may be because i’ve configured it wrong!

Cheers!

So I had a few issues with this module that I think I was able to fix. The first issue I had was that the second notification gets posted several times. Second, when a notification from an app is already on the list, if a new notification from that app comes in it does not update or push it to the top. Finally, the top of the list is the oldest notification, not the newest. I came up with a solution that seems to work for me so far.

In the phone_notification.js file update the cleanPayload function to look like this

cleanPayload: function(newPayload){
        var application_name = newPayload.application_name;
        var that = this;
        var dupIndex = 0;
        if(this.payload.length > 0)
        {
            this.payload.forEach(function (m) {
                // If application_name already exists, increment notification count
                if(m.application_name === application_name)
                {
                    m.count++;
                    that.payload.splice(dupIndex,1);
                }
                dupIndex++;
            });
        }
        
        this.payload.unshift(newPayload);
        this.payload.slice(0, this.config.displayCount -1);
    },

Let me know if this helps or if you have any issues with it.

@tnorling Hello there! I had almost given up hope on anyone turning up to help. Thanks so much. But just to follow-up I´ve replaced the CleanPayload function with yours and it seems to only allow one notification to appear, while ignoring others. The notification count also does not seem to increase despite giving myself missed calls. Thanks once again. Perhaps there are other segments that you have edited to make this work?

tnorling

@SypherDaemon Interesting…what did you set your numberOfNotifications to in the config file? I have mine set to 3 and I am indeed showing 3 notifications at a time. I also just finished writing a function to remove notifications once they’ve been swiped away from your phone. Maybe I changed something somewhere else as well that made it all work. I’ll post my current working code shortly for you to test out.

Edit: The count may no longer work because I am now replacing notifications coming from the same app. I’ll see what I can do to fix that next…

SypherDaemon

@tnorling It’s fully working now, it was a mistake on my part. And yes I fully understand why the notification count isn’t increasing now, I was just using it to debug and see if the program was still accepting multiple notifications. Not really a loss from my end, as I’m not planning on using the notification count. But again, thank you so much. I’m gonna keep testing it out to see if there aren’t any unforseen side-effects.
