How To Set Up Pushbullet

Get Started

Info

Full configuration options and capabilities are available via Apprise

  1. Create a Pushbullet account if you don't already have one. Sign up links are on their homepage.
  2. Install the Pushbullet app on your phone, tablet, or computer.
  3. Follow the instructions to set up the app on your device.
  4. Go to https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings and create an access token.
  5. Copy the access token and store securely.

  6. Copy the example notification.yml.example file to the notification.yml file:

    cp ~/voi/docker/notification.yml.example ~/voi/docker/notification.yml

  7. Update the NOTIFICATION_URLS value in notification.yml file with your Pushbullet access token:

    NOTIFICATION_URLS="pbul://<access_token>"

Tip

If you want to use multiple notification mechanisms, separate them with a comma. For example, to use both Discord and Pushbullet for notification, you would set the NOTIFICATION_URLS value in the notification.yml file to: 

NOTIFICATION_URLS="discord://<webhook_id>/<webhook_token>,pbul://<access_token>"

Testing Your Notification Configuration

With your configuration in place, it's now time to test it.

First, we need to make sure that Voi Swarm picks up your changes to notification.yml. To do this, rerun the installation script:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://get.voi.network/swarm)"

After the script has run and applied changes to the environment, we need to send a test notification to make sure everything is working as expected.

To do this, run the following command:

~/voi/bin/notification-test
