jpushbullet

A simple Java library to interface/use/access Pushbullet's API.

Dependencies:

To use the jpushbullet library, you require the following libraries:

• Apache's HttpClient library for GET/POST requests.
• Google's gson library for parsing data from Pushbullet
• Apache Commons Logging (HttpClient needs it)

How to use:

jpushbullet is intended to be very simple and lightweight. To start, you need to create a PushbulletClient.

PushbulletClient client = new PushbulletClient(api_key);

This creates the connection to Pushbullet's REST API and supplies the api_key used to identify users (as passed into the constructor). FYI, you can get the api key from https://www.pushbullet.com/account when logged in.

To identify user devices, you need to get the devices.

try {
	PushbulletDevice devices = client.getDevices();
} catch (IllegalStateException | IOException e) {
	e.printStackTrace();
}

This method is absolutely vital to use this library as you need device identification keys to send things via Pushbullet.

Finally, onto the real meat of things,

How to send things via jpushbullet

//where n is the device id as ordered by the list. 

//To send notes:
client.sendNote(devices.getDevices().get(n).getIden(), "SUPER TITLE YO", "JPUSHBULLET ROCKS!");

//To send files
client.sendFile(devices.getDevices().get(n).getIden(), new File("path to file");

//To send links
client.sendLink(devices.getDevices().get(n).getIden(), "title here=", "uhh the url here");

//To send list
client.sendList(devices.getDevices().get(n).getIden(), "title here", ArrayList<String> itemsToPush);

OR if you dont want to create an arraylist, you can insert lots of strings into the parameters instead.
client.sendList(devices.getDevices().get(n).getIden(), "title", "item 1", "item 2", "item 3" ... );

//To send an address
client.sendAddress(devices.getDevices().get(n).getIden(), "name of place", "address");

Thank you for using this! If you do. Maybe put this in your credits perhaps. With a link maybe.
