Growl?

I see old messages regarding a Growl plugin but don't see any scripts in the user contribution library. Is this plugin still in development/working, or does anyone have another solution for IOS push notifications until this is supported in Indigo natively?

I use Growl for notifications and is working fine.
Here's an example script to populate the text for Growl to send:

Code: Select all

set theText to "The hot tub is at " & (value of variable "wsTemp_HotTub") & " degrees."
set the value of variable "GrowlAlert" to theText
delay 0.02
set myDescription to value of variable "GrowlAlert"

tell application id "com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp"
   
   notify with name ¬
      "Test Notification" title ¬
      "Message fron Indigo" description ¬
      myDescription application name "Indigo"
   
end tell

Just install the Growl plugin in Indigo and the Prowl app on your mobile devices.

The Growl plugin is available with Indigo 5 and Indigo 6 and is installed automatically. You don't need any scripts - just enable the plugin and use the Growl notification action.

Interesting. I'm running 5.1.8 and have the Growl plugin enabled but am not seeing
any action option for it anywhere.

Probably missing something obvious?

Thanks,

I can't remember exactly what the words are in Indigo 5, but in the Actions tab select "Growl" from the first menu ("Type:"?) then the submenu will show with "Growl Notification" or something...

In Indigo 6 it's "Notification Actions->Growl Notify" from the "Type:" popup.

Hmm, still not finding anything related to Growl in any of the Actions or plugin Actions.

Not an issue at all, just curious as I've never come across any Growl actions.

Is the plugin enabled?

In Indigo 5, go to the Actions Tab (or just create a new action group), select "Plugin" from the "Type" menu, select "Growl" from the "Plugin" menu, then select "Notify" from the "Action" menu.

That's where I'm looking but Growl isn't listed there, and it is enabled.

I could post a couple screenshots if you like.

Thanks,

What shows up on the plugin menu?

Here's what I'm seeing.

Hmmm. Reinstall (or upgrade to the latest) Indigo 5 - something has gotten wonky.

No problem...I'll be going to 6 here very shortly.

Thanks for checking it out.

After upgrading to 6.b11 for some reason I'm still not seeing Growl listed as a Notification
type....just email.

I have the plugin enabled but don't see a configure option next to the enable/disable
options.

I'll post some more screenshots if that would be helpful.

Thanks,

Carl

See this post - I think you've got some systemic issue that's causing odd behavior...
