The unofficial multi-platform Pushover desktop client.

THIS PROJECT IS NOT MAINTAINED ANYMORE! Feel free to fork.

• Native Pushover Client for Windows, Mac and Linux
• Show icon of the notifying app
• Limit the max amount of notifications shown at once
• Notification history
• Run on startup

Goto Pushover.net and get a desktop license (there is a trial period if you want to try it out first). Without this license Pullover will not work.

• Windows x32 (v1.3.0): Pullover_1.3.0_Installer.exe
• Mac OS 10.9+ x64 (v1.3.0): Pullover_1.3.0.dmg
• Linux x64 (v1.3.0): Pullover_1.3.0_linux64.zip
• Linux x32 (v1.3.0): Pullover_1.3.0_linux32.zip

Please note: If the app doesn't work for you, don't hesitate to open an issue here. I usually test Pullover on Mac and Windows before publishing a new version, however if I miss something just contact me. Please add the log file (see section Bugs bellow).

You can create builds for all platforms with Mac OS, take a look at CROSSPLATFORM.md to find out about necessary dependencies.

1. Install build dependencies: npm install
2. Install dependencies of Pullover: cd src && npm install
3. Compile src with webpack: npm run compile
4. Return to root dir: cd ..
5. Rename config/buildConf.json.sample to config/buildConf.json
6. Open config/buildConf.json and adapt platforms: to your preference
7. Build binaries with: ./builder build
8. If the build process was successful, you can find the binaries in bin/pullover/[platform]
9. If you want to package them (.zip/.dmg/.exe), execute ./builder createDist
10. The distributables will be placed in bin/deploy

There is no need to always build packaged binaries if you want to dive into the source of Pullover and try out some changes. Instead install the node dependencies in the root folder and in source with npm install and run the builder script. Make sure to copy config/buildConf.json.sample to config/buildConf.json first

cp config/buildConf.json.sample config/buildConf.json
    npm install
    cd src && npm install
npm run watch
    # In another shell go back to Pullovers root folder and run the app
    cd ..
    ./builder run

If you encounter a bug or Pullover crashes, please go to the following directory and send me the pullover.1.log file by opening an issue:

• OS X - $HOME/Library/Application Support/Pullover
• Windows 8 - C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Pullover
• Windows XP - C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\Application Data\Pullover
• Linux - $XDG_DATA_HOME/Pullover or $HOME/.local/share/Pullover

If you miss a feature or fixed a bug, don't hesitate to create a pull-request. I open-sourced this App with the hope that others contribute to it. Especially for Windows and Linux since I rarely use those systems.

0.0.1 - 0.3.2 Initial app, based on jQuery but kind of messy

I discovered Pushover in mid November 2014 and was really excited. The only thing missing was a decent desktop client. At the time there was only a rudimentary Notification Center integration for Mac. But I was missing the following features:

• Show the icon of the notifying app (it always showed the pushover icon)
• Make the notification clickable to open URLs attached to notifications
• Support for Windows or Linux

Since then a lot has changed. The initial app was written because I wanted to try nwjs and fix the problems mentioned before. I used jQuery at the time and it got kind of messy and unpredictable. In 2015 I wanted to do something with React and did a complete rewrite (with a lot of breaks in between). The first beta after the rewrite was released in Feb. 2016. The code is a lot better to maintain now and new features should be easy to implement.
