Examples for sending a post request to the phone

• For HTTP and HTTPS
• The examples assume you keep the default settings (for accepted params and ports)

Javascript

• make sure to visit the webpage first to allow the untrusted cert)
• HTTPS needed for same-origin policy

function postRequest(url, text){

    var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();

    xhr.open('POST', url)

    xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');

    xhr.send(text);

}

postRequest('http://192.168.1.13:8080', ‘title=hello&text=world’);

postRequest('https://192.168.1.13:8443', ‘title=hello&text=world’);

Python 3

• HTTPS not really needed

import requests

r = requests.post('http://192.168.1.13:8080', data={'title':'hello','text':'world'})

r = requests.post('https://192.168.1.13:8443', data={'title':'hello','text':'world'}, verify=False)

Note:

HTTPS is not secure, only for Javascript because of the same-origin policy (at least until I add a custom keystore feature)

More Ways for Automation

Repeated Notifications

accessibility → notification reminder

Log Notifications to see previous notifications

Use automation app such as Tasker, MacroDroid

Alternative apps: Pushbullet can send notifications from desktop to phone but uses a third party
